More “disastrous” than Milt, McStain, the Bushes, Obama, Hillary, Sanders, Warren, Linda or Biden?

Right now, those who are hesitant to support Trump are going for the other candidates in the polls. I, myself, was polled and supported Sen. Ted Cruz. Once the primaries narrow down the field, then the true support for Trump will be evident.

"Take a good long look at where "Establishment Republicans" ALWAYS take us."

Indeed.

You and me both. I thought they were an Eighties thing, but here we are still with the “war on women” malarkey.

And McCain only got what votes he did get because of Sarah Palin, so who does the GOPe turn around and dump on? Why, the conservative of course!

>>The idea that Donald Trump actually is viewed as electable will strike most political pundits as insane.<<

No, what is insane is foisting a man with no accomplishments, no history and no American on the people. Then, to make matters worse, don’t let the people know that this blank page is destroying the country.

There is only one poll that counts. Yeb is not electable as Juan and Romney have clearly demonstrated.

Translation of Daily Beast: “electable Republicans” = loser mushy “moderates” like Dole, McCain, and Romney. You know who they are — the ones who fight tooth and nail against the conservative base of the Republican Party and “reach across the aisle to the Democrats.” Time to purge the mushy GOPee RINO elite Establishment; cull the herd of the weak, spineless, gutless, clueless, sniveling professional political class. Time the RINOs were put on the extinct species list.

The last 3 dates daddy arranged were duds. Besides daddy’s little girl is approaching 40 so, maybe its time she got out on her own and made her own mind. Not to mention daddy’s own marriage is on the rocks.

Thread Winner !

Trump would not be a disaster.

He is the only one, it seems.

Yosemitest,

Did you see this thread the other day about how the E-Gop is using Citizens United against us? All the candidates that supposedly can win against Hillary in the articles are funded via the Super-Pac's which could care less about "The Base". We are being treated as a throw away item, I have been saying for years they divorced us it is time to move out.

FWIW I think this article is a must read and dovetails on your post...

Yep - got an email from part of the establishment to let me know I haven’t yet leveraged my opportunity to become a member. Told them they have strayed so far I’ll never join because the only “support” they offer is lip-service as they are now “Progressive Lite” and I have nothing in common with them. I doubt they will even blink if anyone reads it. Then they wonder why nobody wants to support them with hard-earned cash.

We should put the word "electable" alongside "unexpected" in today's common usage.
