Here We Go… Mitch McConnell’s Campaign Strategist Concerned Trump’s “Tone” Could Spread

Here we go…
The latest polling shows Donald Trump receives 25% of the black vote – something that has not happened for any Republican candidate in decades.

Trump is the clear leader in the Republican party presidential race.

Of course, the establishment hates this. There are reports that GOP elites are planning to take Donald Trump down after Labor Day.

And, then there’s this…
Mitch McConnell’s campaign strategist is concerned Donald Trump’s “tone” could spread in the party.
The New York Times reported:

Some party leaders worry that the favorable response Mr. Trump has received from the Republican electorate is luring other candidates to adopt or echo his remarks. It is a pattern, they say, that could tarnish the party’s image among minority voters.

“Any candidate that allows Trump to dictate the conversation about what they’re campaigning on is going to be harmed irreparably,” said Josh Holmes, a Republican strategist and the architect of Senator Mitch McConnell’s re-election campaign last year. “And to the extent that there are mainstream candidates dragged into the musings of Trump on a day-to-day basis is really bad news for us.”

Donald Trump, running for president, drew several thousand people in Phoenix on Saturday.Donald Trump Defiantly Rallies a New ‘Silent Majority’ in a Visit to Arizona. Since he entered the race in June with a declaration that Mexican immigrants were rapists and drug traffickers, Mr. Trump has given voice to conservative activists’ unease with America’s changing demography.

OMG men acting like MEN! How SEXIST! /s

I would not at all be surprised if Mitch McConnell was a closet cross-dresser with a special fetish for wearing women's panties. Is 'Caitlyn' available? I'm sure Mitch would go easy on her.

What America needs really badly right now is some comprehensive GOP reform. It’s time for change. We can make America and the GOP “a better place.” No more Boehners. No more McConnells. They are dinosaurs.

McConnell is concerned that Trump is driving other candidates rightward, especially on immigration. That might ruin his working relationship with Democrats and US Chamber of Amnesty.

Now who would have ever thought that? Thinking/talking conservative values plays well with the GOP base.

I'll be damned!

It’s past time that men in this country start acting and talking like men again instead of like the spineless, crybaby, scared of their own shadow wussies that have run America in the ditch.

FUBO!

Josh Holmes is a slimy weasel. In the several times I have met him, he has never given a straight answer to any question ever posed to him.

The “tone” they don’t want anyone talking about is the rule of law.
They are determined we must accommodate all the illegal aliens they invited in and welcome in millions more.

The Cheap Labor Express must be kept running.
