To hear the patronizing wise men of the Republican Party tell it, anyone who would vote for Donald Trump for president must be deranged. "Trumpkins," they call them, mental midgets and xenophobic troglodytes who've crawled out from their survivalist caves in order to destroy the Beltway Establishment.
How their resentful attitude galls the crack cadres of campaign consultants who brought conservatives halfhearted standard-bearers like John McCain and Mitt Romney to do sham battle against Barack Obama in 2008 and '12, then return to the safety of the US Senate and a beachfront mansion in La Jolla.
The peasants are revolting!
And all on behalf of a bloviating billionaire whose conservatism and party loyalty are suspect.
Now, after months of whistling past the graveyard of Trump's seemingly inexorable rise and assuring themselves that his candidacy will collapse as voters come to their senses, a CNN poll released Wednesday showing Trump now lapping the field has the GOP establishment in full meltdown mode. The survey shows Trump with nearly 40% of the primary vote, trailed by Ted Cruz at 18%, Ben Carson and Marco Rubio tied at 10%, and the also-rans (including great GOP hope Jeb Bush) limping along far behind.
Their panic was best articulated last week in The Daily Beast by GOP consultant Rick Wilson, who wrote that Trump supporters "put the entire conservative movement at risk of being hijacked and destroyed by a bellowing billionaire with poor impulse control and a profoundly superficial understanding of the world .â.â. walking, talking comments sections of the fever swamp sites."

George F. Will of ABC News is particularly known as the leader of the anti-Trumpsters, a self-proclaimed title of sorts.
This is so true, and I am sorry to say that it took me decades to figure this out! Didn't LBJ set the pace for this popular DC trend?
Many things can happen, but AZ can no more sour on its McPain than SC can on its Loveable Lindsey.
“No more presidential candidates with absolutely no executive experience. (Freshmen senators.)”
3 freshman senators have been elected President. All disasters.
Trump is taking most of the flak as long as he remains ahead of Cruz - hopefully it will keep up the trend so we get one of them to vote for....
I hate to say it but you are right about Arizona.
They are not going against Juan.
Bunch of geezers wanting one of their own.
Germans in the 1920s and 1930s looked pretty respectable too. They still voted for Hitler and followed him blindly.
You're comparing these patriotic Americans and Trump to the GD Nazis?
Do you work for the evil corrupt in D.C. who've literally looted and gang banged Americans and subverted, compromised and undermined our entire system?
Nope. I’m simply pointing the palpable falseness in your statement. In short, I’m not pointing at the people in your picture, I’m pointing at you.
Yeah, I bet you said that about Reagan too when his campaign was picking up steam in 1980. I was around during that time and I know others did.
Anybody who compares Trump to the rise of Adolph Hitler and the Nazis deserves nothing but contempt from Freepers and other intelligent people.
Your comment exposes you as an ignorant person who has zero credibility.

Ya think anyone buys that Mr. Oceander?
Sick.
Miss DU much?
You’re fortunate I don’t run this site as I’d throw you out of here without comment.
Ahh, a true connoisseur of echo chambers.
So it’s your position Trump and tens of millions of Americans who desperately want their country back are Nazis or similar to Nazis.
Boy, only a total AH leftist would make a comment like that. You work in D.C. or the MSM right?
Bookmarked for enjoying your tears later.
