Donald Trump to GOP: 'Be Quiet' or I’ll Lead Alone
ABC News ^ | June 15, 2016 | Candace Smith

Donald Trump issued a harsh directive for fellow members of his party: Be quiet or I’ll be forced to lead alone.

Speaking in the historic Fox Theater in Atlanta, Georgia, Trump appeared to be fed up with leadership of the party he will likely lead into the November election.

"You know, the Republicans, honestly folks, our leaders, our leaders have to get tougher. This is too tough to do it alone. But you know what, I think I’m going to be forced to. I think I am going to be forced to, our leaders have to get a lot tougher,” he began.

He added, icily, "And be quiet. Just please be quiet. Don't talk, please be quiet.”

Trump has had a very tenuous relationship with many other Republicans, strife stemming from many of his more controversial proposals statements....

I told my elderly mom at dinner tonight that if Trump doesn’t win in November, this country is lost. And that I will not be voting for any Congresscritters thereafter because they are useless. She dittoed that.

In order for Trump to not be alone in this fight, We The People have to become more vocal. Start calling the GOP Elites which includes RINO Ryan and Turtle Face McConnell 24/7 and express your disgust at their actions against Trump and their inactions when it comes to the safety and security of this country.

Who needs enemies when we have more than our fair share in the GOP?

Ryan started out pretty decently, as he was among the first to address the entitlements crisis with specific proposals. For that he was made into a villain.

But somewhere along the line, somebody messed with his brain and turned him into a screaming globalist and a big-spending liberal.
The Republican Speaker of the House is our enemy. That’s hard to stomach, but it’s the sad reality. Trump will have his hands full.

Donating up to $2,700 per individual wouldn’t hurt.

The GOPe is doing a good job of winning this for Hillary. Trump is out front trying to drag these sorry individuals toward reality.

He was never against Trump. He is a commentator and because he didn’t pander to Trump, you got upset. Rush calls out good things and bad things and just because he didn’t suck up to Trump like a lap dog, you get all emotional.

“once he is, declare war on the GOPe & Hillary. Run against Washington DC corruption. It’s his best shot.”

Agree. What I would do with his money, at this point, is to hire the best people he can find (and can trust) to tackle each major policy issue and to provide specific policy documents that are written for public consumption. Then go straight the people with these.

Health care, immigration reform, trade policy, an economic plan, AND a very specific new approach to deal with political corruption and capital cronyism, for starters. Every week a new policy document that points out what's being done wrong, and goes after it in a practical manner like a business would. Tell the people directly that it will no longer be business as usual. That many of them voted for Obama because of the promise of Hope and Change, but got more of the same. He should pledge that he would absolutely change the corruption, the insider control, and give government back to the people.

In other words, he has to position himself as a highly competent populist who loves America.

Let’s look at the obvious. The GOP ladders are NOT worried about Trump losing, they are terrified of him winning.

They are no longer the leadership they are traitors and scum.

You bet. This is nothing like Reagan or Goldwater in ‘64 etc. This election is like nothing ever seen in modern American history.

For one, Reagan was an elected Governor and Goldwater a Senator etc. Trump was never elected, never held office. He never belonged to the insiders club. No elected leader in modern American has ever been as forthright, outspoken and loved as Trump. You’d have to dial back to the founders to see this type of relationship between a leader and the people.

Ryan is just out for himself and the moneyed interests he represents. He’s a mouthpiece, a stooge.

I think that people just need to move on about Rush and others. There are a few who are lost Hugh Hewitt, Michael Medved, etc who I simply lost all respect for. But Rush knows that Trump is the man and I sitting Hillary every day on his show.
