Oh! The Humanity!

t's one thing for the republican establishment to throw up all over the candidacy of Donald Trump: frankly, the GOP has not been relevant as a political power ever since Boehner started folding like a lawn chair to Obama's every demand just around the time of the first US downgrade, and as such what the Republican party - torn apart and very much irrelevant as the best of the "establishment" GOP candidates demonstrate - thinks is largely irrelevant.
However, when such stalwart titans of financial establishmentarianism as the Council of Foreign Relations and "The Economist", who until now had been largely ignoring Trump's ascent in the political hierarchy finally unleash an all out assault and go after Trump on the very same day, you know that the flamboyant, hyperbolic billionaire has finally gotten on the nerves of some very high net worth individuals.
Below are excerpts from the panicked lamentations of the Economist as written down this weekend in "Time to fire Trump"

The GOPe panic is reaching a fever pitch.
To borrow the meme, it’s funny to see “Tyler Durden” clutching at his pearls.
All the right people are scared.
They can't stand Trump
Make him sign a pledge and allow his supporters to grow
Then when it's over they say we must stop him
No wonder Obama and Harry Reid walked over these guys.
The same CFR where Heidi Cruz, Goldman Sachs employee, is a member?
And yet many “conservatives” here are right there with them. They are so being duped.
Trump has all the right enemies.
It aint happening get get lost you English twits.
The End of The Beginning
All the right people are scared.
Here’s a quote from the Honorary Chairman of the Council on Foreign Relations:
It would have been impossible for us to develop our plan for the world if we had been subjected to the lights of publicity during those years. But, the world is more sophisticated and prepared to march towards a world government. The supranational sovereignty of an intellectual elite and world bankers is surely preferable to the national auto determination practiced in past centuries.
- David Rockefeller
It is fun to watch.
Too late, too late,
For the GOPe,
Turn, turn, turn again.
Trump’s victory is assured
And cannot be repealed,
Turn, turn to the rain
And the wind.
What is HYSTERICAL is that they have NO CLUE that if their directive is followed, then the race ends MUCH SOONER than later.
Their directive is for Cruz to get out, with the IMPLICATION that Cruz’s support will all (or mostly, at least) move to Rubio. Sorry, but NO WAY IN HELL that will happen. Trump will get at least two thirds of it, putting him even closer to locking it up.
They need Rubio out of the way - leaving Trump and Cruz and if Cruz can start to win a bit, then Trump doesn’t get his 51% to win the nomination on the first ballot - and the convention gets to decide the candidate - in other words, the GOPe again gets to choose...meaning Jeb, Romney, or Linda. [note: that’s what I fear most, and why Cruz people should give voting for him a second thought]
Normally I wouldn’t offer this type of advice, as they just may follow it, but thankfully the GOPe is so STUFFY AND ARROGANT that they can’t figure this out and would never listen to anyone, anyway...they think it’s a binary world, and that everyone who is presently against Trump (such as Cruz supporters) will stay against Trump should their man (i.e., Cruz) drop out.
This is hysterical to watch.
