[Vanity ]The GOP Establishment is scared to go on air and take Trump out with TV ads

Posted on 11/27/2015 5:40:39 PM PST by springwater13

There are 2 big reasons for this:

1) Unlike any candidate in recent memory, Donald Trump will go out and trash individual donors by name on twitter/facebook. He'll get his lawyers out to threaten lawsuits. He'll talk about breaking the pledge and threaten an independent run. In other words, He has LEVERAGE to burn their corrupt house to the ground. You take Trump on and he'll fight back and you'll get so much HEAT you won't know what hit you.

2) Let's say for the sake of argument, a super PAC diminishes Trump's support. Is his support going to Marco Rubio? Not bloody likely. It'll probably go to Cruz and he's another person the establishment hates like the plague. They aren't going to spend millions to destroy Trump to make Cruz stronger. They are left helpless and hoping Trump takes himself out.

Fox News either had bad info or is making it up.

The question is how does one tell a persons disabilities reading a newspaper, or his religion or skin color.

Trump read some nasty comments and responded. Are you 100 percent sure he wasn’t mocking the comments. And if not where is it saying he said something about this mans physical disabilities ?

For me the man was treated like any other nasty man, that is because whether he is able to walk or not has no place in treating him like a lesser person. His body may be crippled but he should be treated the same as anyone else because he is of sound mind.

Corrupt PAC commercials are so old school. I would imagine there are very few people even paying attention to that stuff. Most understand nowadays they’re all bought and paid for by special interest insiders. Very corrupt stuff.

Trump supports Israel and is tearing these elite scum to bits. I’m sold. I expect him to lie and use the office for his own personal gain , but so what? He’ll fire, foght, deport and prosecute those that deserve it.

Is that something you admire - using your leverage to try to bully / silence your critics and criticism? He's even called for the FCC to silence his critics.

The establishment Super PACs backing Bush and Kasich aren't, I notice, attacking Trump for his liberal positions on numerous issues - but attacking him on personality. That's not going to be effective - and is also quite telling - apparently they mind his personality but not his liberalism...given some of the positions taken by the candidates they support, I guess that's not a surprise.

I understand he rented the house next door and was taking videos. I read that and for the first time in my life, wanted to personally beat the crap out of him, disabled or not (mebbe I'd use only one arm - mebbe). I thought that was the most despicable political trick I had ever read of.

Well, I’m seeing a lot of those ads with GOP trying to take out Trump. They don’t seem scared to me. Not a bit. (I do hope they realize he’ll take ‘em out when/if he wins. He ALWAYS fights back.)

Huh? Kasich is doing it. It doesn't seem to be working, but that's what he's trying to do with targeted ads (I guess -- I don't remember seeing any, but have heard about them).

Nobody's going to buy time to say "We are the GOP Elite and we don't want you to vote for Trump," but one candidate or another -- Jindal, Kasich, somebody else -- will take on the task.

Major candidates with a chance to win aren't going lower themselves by directly attacking Trump, but a minor candidate may get a place in the cabinet by taking him on or going after another undesirable candidate.

As his Sarasota rally today he shouted that Hillary should be arrested. Twice, I think.
