http://Twitter.com/@benswann_ Ben Swann takes a look at threats by the GOP to possibly ban Donald Trump from future debates if he is unwilling to pledge not to run as an independent in the general election. Can the RNC actually ban Trump? This is a Reality Check you won’t see anywhere else. Lets talk about this on Twitter.
(Excerpt) Read more at youtube.com ...
Printed Signature blocks for Reince Priebus, Chairman, RNC
and each remaining eligible Republican Republican Candidate.
Who of them would sign?
Good bye, weasel-boy Priebus :)
The GOPe retards better wise-up.....THEY are the ones the nation is rising up against......via Trump.
Nobody tells Donald what to say or do.....but he is astute and observant. He tapped into the nation's discontent and his followers believe he has not made a wrong move since.
If the GOPe retards lift a finger to sideline their spokesman, there's no telling what the nation will do to them.
True, but fortunately Trump is the bank.
Well said!
No one with half a brain would do this, but the result on Prebuis’ cranial MRI have not come back yet.
Trump is using twitter to get his message out. He uses Periscope for video and can connect with his voters on YouTube as well as other venues. He can tweet things in real time. He should not give up his leverage. He can hold his own seperate event at the same time if they ban him. I am not sure how important the voter data would be that they would withhold from Trump.
“Anyone smell “lawsuit” a brewing?”
Nope. I smell a third party brewing since he is taking in R and D voters. Kiss the eGOP goodbye.
The RNC needs to ask itself, do the voters actually like them, or do the voters loathe and barely tolerate them? How do they really think a pissing match will really go, because I’m willing to bet the country likes Senator McCain a whole lot better than Reince Priebus, who probably ranks in most people’s minds as a step below a minion.
Actually, all he has to do is accept the ban...go to MSNBC who is doing lousy with it’s prime-time news....and buy an whole hour opposite the next debate....same time.
Then I’d go get Clint Eastwood as my narrator and stage the event with one hundred Americans from the midwest being the ones who actually ask the questions.
After that one episode....the Republicans can wrap up their stupid debate and save themselves money. MSNBC would cream Fox’s coverage hour. And Donald would bask in the sunshine created by this stupid Republican national committee strategy.
I love that idea!
And that is the crux of it, isn’t it?
There is something going on here and I confess that I’m not that big of a Trump proponent, but there is a definite rage in the air if you ask me. It’s a collection of 7 very bad years of ineptitude and tyranny from lawless Obama coupled with a couple of decades of pimp abuse by the GOP on their voter bitches. They promise anything and everything, get what they want, and then kick our asses to the curb to go make their money.
Obama and his party, along with Hillary and any of the other might-be’s have their own problem and people know it. The establishment GOP has a worse problem. Jebito is not going to be the nominee; there’s just too much seething rage out there for establishment backstabbing Republicans. And, even with the PAC and CoC monies arrayed in his favor, they aren’t going to put enough polish on that turd to make it shine.
I believe we are at a point where establishment GOP and their PAC money and manipulation aren’t going to matter. They have erred. They have erred in the fact that they have systematically taken away our freedoms, our jobs, our retirements, our futures and that of our children. No campaign air-time is gonna make that go away. Not even.
Love it.
Clint Eastwood attended Trump’s wedding. Many don’t know that, since all we (repeatedly) see is the Billary pic posted :)
It’s not rage that’s in the air. It’s recognition. Recognition the voters, “the little guy”, have been played for patsies. To call it rage it to be dismissive. Like an angry little temper tantrum. No, the sheep are tired of being sheared.
I can see your thoughts to a point, but there IS such a thing as determined rage that seeks a goal - that is what is going to keep Jebito from the nomination I think..
It appears that Trump's got those guys by the gonads. As Richard Nixon observed, their hearts and minds are bound to follow.
Yes, follow the money trail.
No they can’t, and no they don’t actually want to. Trump draws eyeballs, and in debate he draws them to the other candidates too.
Here’s my take:
Let’s say Trump stays on top during the primaries, and they see the nomination in his grasp. Here are the options for the RNC/GOPe/RINOs or whatever you call them:
1. Pass a new rule to an open ballot at the GOP convention, then threaten every delegate with campaign fund freeze out if they cast a vote for Trump on the floor.
2. Start packing GOP caucuses with democrats (I suspect they’ll try this anyway)
3. IRS audit of Trump or his family’s holdings.
4. Swating of the Trump offices (if you don’t know what ‘swating is’, google it)
5. Someone or something represented by Gloria Alred (they always whip this card out when they are desperate. No doubt she’s on the bench waiting)
6. Deny Secret Service protection, drop itinerary details to your Central american or tango from team jihad currently climbing a southern fence.
7. Give Secret Service protection, and insert “contractors-for-hire” within. Lookup “Plausible Deniability”.
8. Cause a mass causality incident; blame Trump’s rhetoric.
9. Come up with a reason he can’t get a security clearance, then run with it.
10. If none of the above works and Trump wins the nomination, either run a RINO as 3rd party, or the whole GOPe endorses the democrat nominee.
Oh, and BTW: To the enemies of America who are no doubt reading this and may be getting ideas, the way the political and economic climate is these days, ANY of these scenarios happening would probably ignite a 2nd civil war.
just my $02.
jimjohn - out.
Let them try. If they exclude him, who will even bother to watch?
If they try to pack the caucuses with Democrats, even that won’t work because half the Dems are going to vote for Trump too.
We could be headed for a blow-out.
