A concerted effort to take out Trump?

What took them so long?

I wonder if Trump has some ad ideas of his own?

[Bobalu]

I have been sending him ideas :-)

No idea if his people look at them.

He can run ads that will absolutely destroy them.

[Hugin]

Lilliputians.

[Paladin2]

Uh, hssn’t this effort been going on the last few weeks?

[Paladin2]

Trump is operating inside their tatical OODA loops.

[SmokingJoe]

So! Pretty Boy Rubio thinks he can take on the the big boys huh? And on immigration no less? Bring it on sucker.

Like him or not, the Republican looks very bad if they have to “gang up on” any other candidate. It will backfire on the party itself and result in the electorate looking at all of them as buffoons...this is a civil war and the voting public is already sick of them.

[Gene Eric]

How about a hostile takeover of the Republican infrastructure, and send the miserable GOP Establishment to the unemployment line? It can happen.

[Red Steel]

but now it appears his rivals have decided that if they’re going down, they’re going down swinging.

And down they go...

Mr Trump has demonstrated a mastery of social media that is outside the skill set of the GOPe. Anyone under 35 or so uses streaming media or dvrs for most tv watching. For those who still watch the conventional way...if my Dad is an indication of what seniors think, early ad blitzes just irritate the heck out of him.

Aside from that, I think they missed the point. It’s illegals and jobs you idiots!

The GOP is ganging up on the top GOP candidate.

Who's the fool in that picture?

[Cowboy Bob]

Why is the GOP leadership trying to destroy their leading (most popular with their party) candidate?

Don’t they realize they are committing political suicide at a time when their opponants (Democrats) are imploding?

[TexasFreeper2009]

Trump is very vulnerable to a coordinated attack, more than most people realize.

I was reading an article which interviewed 20 Trump supporters earlier and I learned something very interesting.

Trump has 3 basic groups of supporters:

1. Conservatives that believe Trump is one of them
2. Liberals that believe Trump is one of them
3. Anarchists that just want to “burn everything down”

A coordinated attack that educated the public about what Trump really believes would cause Trump to lose the support of either 1 or 2.

[plangent]

These GOPers are acting like libs. Take out the messenger and kill the message instead of coming up with better ideas.

What a waste of resources, instead of training fire on Hillary and the Dems.

GOP Ganging Up to Trounce Trump

Exactly how is this different?

[Democrat_media]

Politicians have destroyed this country

Politicians are all owned by rich donors

Trump is not owned. Go Trump!

[Enduro Guy]

Feckless Republican candidates attacking Trump sounds like a great game plan... for Trump.

[GoneSalt]

Watch them attack and his numbers go up 5%.

The losers that think it’s unfair Trump hogs the ball forget, it was never their ball. Trump owns the balls in this contest. ;)

[DoughtyOne]

Every time one of these guys opens up on Trump, he goes up five points and they go down five points.

Come one, come all, drive Trump’s numbers over 50%. Goose eggs are going cheap...

[Hostage]

I highly suspect Walker, Rubio are financed by the same PAC money that’s behind the establishment pick, Jeb Bush.

If they think Paul can get an attack on Trump to stick, that PAC money will pay him too.

Bush is letting the lesser candidates do his attacking for him while he remains above the fray.
