GOP establishment 'to unleash on Trump after Labor Day'
WND ^ | 8/31/15 | Joe Kovacs

Posted on 08/31/2015 4:46:40 PM PDT by sushiman

The Republican establishment is reportedly about to launch a massive blitz of commercials after Labor Day to take down front-runner Donald Trump in his quest for the 2016 GOP presidential nomination.

“The hottest conversation that’s going on right now in the donor community among the anti-Trump donors, is how do you take down Donald Trump, and what’s the vehicle to do it,” CNN’s Maeve Reston told her network colleague John King on Sunday.

Trump and BOR were friendly. After tonite’s display by BOR and Kraut, not so much, I suspect. BOR has gone over to the dark side. Trump will get his revenge, sooner or later, but he will get it.

There is little downside risk with Trump. If he loses, we get more socialism. Which is exactly what we were going to get anyway. If he wins, we might get some things that resemble conservatism. And some folks who richly deserve prison will get perp walks. That’s the issue here. DC fears a long overdue reckoning. That’s why they’ll fight like cats: to save their own skins.

Its not about hitlery. It’s about avoiding prison and a long overdue reckoning. The establishment wants to save its skin. If they were smart, they would embrace Trump. Realistically, he could only get a few high profile felons and make a few examples. Instead, though, they will do what they can to defeat Trump. And if they succeed, in the long run it will spell their own doom.

Being a NH resident and only having a few more months to go before the primary and am most likely going to vote for Cruz ... but Trump is a puzzling character to me.

I'm wondering if (and this is just my opinion) Trump might be a Dem plant.

Let me explain ... I think Trump, like many other people, is surprised at how he has captured a large portion of the Conservatives in the country so far. Trump, from what I have read/heard has ties to many liberals as well as Conservatives.

Trump's conversation with Bill Clintoon, donations to their “foundation”, and other “hobknobery” with liberals has me thinking that he could be doing this in order to split off the Conservatives from the GOP ensuring a complete defeat of the GOP in 2016 (WH, Senate, and House) in exchange for lucrative contracts and huge financial gains via “Crony-Capitalism” if a Clintoon Administration takes over in 2017.

I see that many people would “go 3rd Party” if Trump is kicked out of the GOP and maybe this is what he and the Dems are hoping for. Having a person campaign as a very strong Conservative with a “Damn the Torpedoes ... Full Speed Ahead” style to split the Conservative wing from the GOPe seems like something that could have been possibly planned ....

Or I could be all wet.

But something just doesn't feel right about Trump

Oh I'm sure I'll get a few responses from this post, but man .. it just feels that there is something weird going on in the GOP primary race this time around.

I understand your cynicism and skepticism . That said , I truly deep down in my heart and soul believe Trump is for real . Perfect - who is ? I haven’t felt as strongly for a candidate since 1980 when I volunteered to work for the Reagan campaign . Trump wants to make America great again , like it was when he was growing up . Can he do it ? Perhaps not , but I know he’ll sure as hell improve things at various levels . He’s not known to be a failure .

certain people in both the republican party and democrat party is needed...I think hillery is probably the biggest of the bribe taker fallowed by Nancy Pelosi but we still have the same problem in the republican party its just that it is not as blatant...My hope was that walker would be the one but I have a feeling his campaign is going to implode

They are just like the grinning reporter reporting it—so happy with themselves they can’t resist sharing their joy.

Unless you have been selected for a test and have a testing device or paper diary in your home from a media ratings company such as Nielsen to monitor your viewing for a given time, NO TV NETWORK OR PROGRAM KNOWS IF YOU'RE WATCHING OR NOT, NOR DO THEY CARE.

If you're boycotting anything, and you're not a Nielsen "tester" you have to bombard the network honchos or the individual program producers with letters, faxes or phone calls to let them know your displeasure with the programming or with one or more of the cast of TV personalities such as the Bloviator, Juan Willies or Whorealdo.

I’m not sure I see anything the dems could have promised Trump to get him to be a plant.
