The Republican establishment is reportedly about to launch a massive blitz of commercials after Labor Day to take down front-runner Donald Trump in his quest for the 2016 GOP presidential nomination.
“The hottest conversation that’s going on right now in the donor community among the anti-Trump donors, is how do you take down Donald Trump, and what’s the vehicle to do it,” CNN’s Maeve Reston told her network colleague John King on Sunday.
But party officials are said to be too timid to attack Trump directly.
“There are a lot of donors out there who see it as much too dangerous, obviously, for the candidates, or their allied super PACs, to go after Trump,” Reston said. “So they’re looking to more establishment PACs to potentially take him down in post-Labor Day ads.”
Radio talk-show host Rush Limbaugh saw the report, and agrees with the premise “the Republican establishment is preparing to unleash on Trump after Labor Day.”
“Now they aren’t going to do it with their fingerprints on it,” Limbaugh explained. “They are looking for PACs that have no ties to current Republican candidates. They don’t want any fingerprints of the party directly on whatever this smear of Trump is going to be.”

A brown shirt would be more appropriate.
Hillary is a threat to the entire nation,and has already demonstrably harmed it, but they have to go after Trump.
The GOP deserves to become the new Whigs.
Some generals would do that. And don't forget, Trump did go to military school at an impressionable age. I think much of his deal making technique came from his military school training.
That said, Trump usually uses simple plans...and that plan would be complicated.
The problem the opposing team has is that Jeb just isn't that smart and his backers (the deep pocketed PAC's aren't politicians either...they are lobbyists). Trump has already upended their game also.
Trump is a master strategist with many years experience.
He will close this deal.
They gave us McCain who we immediately recognized as a loser and then they saddled us with Mitt the Wimp.
Time for a change.
No military strategist would ever be that confident. What this amounts to is a massive effort to cheat on the part of the Republican establishment.
That they are willing to break the bank to stop a legitimate candidate indicates that if and when they are defeated by conservatives, they must be purged from the Republican party.
McConnell, Boehner, Graham, McCain, and hundreds of Beltway bandits, political consultants, lobbyists, etc., must be made personna non grata in Washington. A prohibition against hiring any of them, funding anything they want, allowing them to parasite off the government in any way.
It is about to the point where if corporations hire any of them, they can kiss off any government contracts.
Establishment GOP delenda est. They must be destroyed.
Patton might. Trump is most certainly that confident.
I agree. The whole rotten GOP must be brought down.
This is why the silly sixteen are sticking around. They want their sugar daddies to bail them out of their own incompetence.
we should call them sugar daddy candidates.
Sugar daddy candidate jbush
Sugar daddy candidate graham
Sugar daddy candidate perry
Sugar daddy candidate Christie
etc. etc.
Patton often upset his leaders by making bets with their money. That is, he would go on a “reconnaissance in force” trying to get into a fight with a much bigger enemy element, then demand support from his higher unit which wasn’t ready for the fight. This got a lot of friendlies killed.
Resistance to tyrants is obedience to God!
This predates A Jones by a loooong time
And even then, I said Patton might.
Trump has earned this kind of confidence. His playbook is Norman Vincent Peale's "Power of Positive Thinking."
Read it and you will understand the Trump strategy. And add "The Art of War" by Sun Tzu to round out the study.
That is Trump in a nut shell.
I also get the impression that Trump has studied "The Art of War" by Clausewitz.
It's free online. Check it out.
I’ve read Sun Tzu, and Sun Bin, Clausewitz, and Saxe’s Mes Rêveries, as well as many others.
My mistake. I was conflating the “Art of War” with “On War”...both of which are seminal IMHO.
