Donlad Trump and the future of the Republican Party

[CapnAwesome]

For all the American atheists/forum users out there, what are your thoughts on Trump and his policies? Does he scare you guys?

He very much resembles Ronald Reagan, albeit more corrupt and a lot more xenophobic.  
It really surprises me how in other Western democracies, almost all their traditional conservative parties have liberalized socially in order to tap into the millennials and progressives who are fiscally conservative. Why can't the Republican party do the same?

1. Do you really think Trump has a chance? 
2. If he loses the nomination and runs as a third candidate how will things change?
3. If he does become president do you think he will be able to bring about his radical changes?
4. Do you think Hillary is our best bet for the Democratic party?
5. Will hate crime against atheists go up?

I don't really care about Trump.

I do have a bone to pick with your thread, which is where you say 'all other western democracies' have had their conservative parties socialize liberally. That's patently untrue. Unless your list of westernized democracies only counts the collection of tiny countries in western Europe as 'all other western democracies.' Before I can really give in to the rest of your premise, I need to know what you count as the rest of the civilized world?
