Donald Trump isn't playing by the rules!

MSNBC host Joe Scarborough wrote a lengthy Facebook post on Tuesday about real-estate magnate Donald Trump and whether the Republican establishment should challenge his controversial presidential campaign.
"Trump will always be Trump, and there is no need for anyone in the Republican establishment to think otherwise. The best they can do is ride this wave of dissatisfaction and learn a lesson or two from it," Scarborough wrote.
Scarborough, a former Republican congressman and host of MSNBC's "Morning Joe," wrote that if front-running GOP candidates truly fear that Trump will harm their party, they should take it upon themselves to bring him down.
"But anyone looking for salvation from party leaders or major money players are looking in the wrong place. The burden of dethroning the Donald falls on GOP politicians like Jeb Bush, Scott Walker and others who have politely played by the old rules of an outdated political system that is no longer relevant to most Americans," he wrote. "The longer Trump's opponents play it safe, the longer Trump will continue his political ascent."

Elitist upon elitist, layer upon layer. Pink shirt wearing “republican” tv elitists have ideas about what we should like in a candidate, and offers advice as to how his elitist buddies should attack and destroy some other candidate not on the team. PUKE.
Bingo!
The GOPe has been making a science of paying the voters lip service so they can do as they darn well please unimpeded.
Anyone who would vote for a guy that gave a nickel to the likes of the Clintons and even Anthony Weiner deserves what they get. I’m amazed any conservative would look at the guy any not see what an opportunist the guy is.
Very well said. No one changes unless they have to.
Trump says what I yell at the TV every day and night!
It’s the same old If you can’t beat ‘em, join ‘em. Somewhere the RP figured out that if they shut the hell up, they’d be as rich and corrupt and protected from law like the Democrats. I can only hope that the carpetbagger economy collapses upon their heads.
Exactly. The shortcut to that idea is supporting Ted Cruz.
Exactly!
Allow me to summarize:
The people that knowingly and willingly put lesser evils into GOP power are righteously upset that they got what they elected: Liberals and evil.
Now, as a result of getting the very thing they wanted (One does not vote for what one does not want and no one was fooled, tricked or lied to as Mitch and Jonbon told them they would work with Barry if elected) into the GOP they cast about randomly for someone, anyone, to save them from their own bad choices.
Trump, knowing that sheep are easily manipulated, takes advantage of the situation and on cue, he’s the latest salvation for America because the very fools responsible for the problem in the first place (by electing one set of liberals) now demands another.
The above is an accurate and historically documented reality.
Closed my Facebook acct. months ago. Could not finish the article.
Sounds like he is trying to suck up to Trump. Job hunting Morning Schmoe???
But we should still support the current crop of Republicans in Congress who continue to pass Obama's leftist agenda, and the current crop of Republican presidential candidates who'll continue the same status-quo, right?
Oooooooooo, he wrote a FB post!
Stopped clock? Blind squirrel?
Cruz can’t pull that off. He’s no Trump and people may want Cruz’s conservatism but they want Trump’s in your face character more. Trump wins in that match up. Who’s the baddest? Trump. Cruz is a boy scout by comparison. Speaking for myself, I don’t want a boy scout for president, I want the bull in the china shop, Trump.
I bet no one here knows that Trump wants universal healthcare ? didn't know that? well start thinking about issues and stop cheering someone just because they are willing to fight.
Trump wants to scrap Obamacare and replace it with Universal Healthcare. And that's just ONE issue.
Trump is distracting us from the issues that matter with his demeanor
I could actually see that happening. Remember, we're talking about the party of stupid.
Right now, I'm for Cruz, but I am enjoying Trump stirring the pot.
Donald Trump isn't playing by the rules!
Today’s polls show how weak Hillary really is. She’s behind Republican candidates badly in three battle ground states. We can get the POTUS without the mercurial, shifty and shifting Donald.
