Fox’s Gretchen Carlson to RNC: Deal with Your Own Problems Before Scolding Trump
Mediaite ^ | 7/9/15 | Josh Feldman

Posted on 07/09/2015 6:46:51 PM PDT by markomalley

Last night, The Washington Post reported that Republican National Committee Chairman Reince Priebus called

Now, Trump disputed some of the reporting, of course, saying that Priebus at worst gently nudged him.

Well, on Fox News this afternoon, Gretchen Carlson called out Priebus and the RNC, defending Trump and saying, “The last people who should be telling him to simmer down on his messaging are those who haven’t yet figured out how to message.”

She said the GOP has done a poor job of messaging in the past few years, constantly losing to President Obama, and so said the RNC shouldn’t be pressuring Trump to stop just yet.

“How does the RNC know who’s really going to resonate with the American people,” she asked, “when, in my mind, they haven’t even figured out how to message yet?”

Yeah, if I had any partners that I could get to boycott the establishment GOPe, the Marxist left, the leftist media and the Washington Cartel, I would be slamming these groups where it hurts. But all I have is my vote, and you people ain’t getting that!

She said....“How does the RNC know who’s really going to resonate with the American people,” she asked, “when, in my mind, they haven’t even figured out how to message yet?”

She’s right..

Besides Trump knows how to get the stage, good bad or indifferent when it comes to the press....he’s playing as one who ISN’T being paid to play their way.

I say let him rock and roll....

It’s hard to sell cancer.

The RNC’s message is that Republicans should vote for amnesty and 30 million new Democrat voters.

It’s no wonder Trump is resonating. The citizens have been crying out for a champion for years to stop the illegal alien inundation.
The RNC’s job has been to frustrate those voters.

Good call, Gretchen, but right now Trump is their problem ...
unless they want to grow spines or something.

Trump always says I can win. It is in the way he talks and does things and he is selling the voters on the idea that they can win too. People love this.

The other candidates of either party are selling nothing but defeatism. Even Ted Cruz who is my favorite has a hard time being as enthusiastic as Trump. He is intoxicating.

I hope people continue to underestimate Trump. They might wake one day wondering how he became president.

Good for Gretchen..she gets it..unfortunately the GOP is going full Dem by trying to kiss the a@@es of illegal aliens so they can get votes..Dems know that illegals will vote for them..the GOP is too stupid to figure out that illegal aliens will NEVER EVER vote Republican, someone needs to go and beat that into their skulls, it will NEVER HAPPEN..Dems own those illegals, give them free healthcare, food stamps, and welfare and the Dems own those illegals for life
