These new Trump poll numbers should absolutely terrify Republicans [correction: GOPe Pubs]
Washington Post ^ | 2/29/2016 | Greg Sargent

Posted on 02/29/2016 8:52:34 AM PST by catnipman

If Republicans are going to have any hope of stopping the runaway train otherwise known as Donald Trump, it may rest on their ability to limit the breadth of his appeal. A single alternative to Trump — most likely Marco Rubio — could conceivably coalesce enough support among well educated, relatively affluent, more moderate Republicans

It is interesting to note that the Left considers the French Revolution to be a good thing but both Left and Right consider the Conservative Revolution a bad thing.

Heck they consider the American revolution a bad thing!

I love Trump. I bet, in response, he whips it out. LOL

Heh, this reminds me of an old joke about Milton Berle: "Okay, Milt - but only take out enough to win!"

A dictator is always the result of big government loving revolutionaries. The American Republic was the result of small government loving revolutionaries.

Little addition/change to your great reply!

It is interesting to note that the Left considers the French Revolution to be a good thing. Both our Left and GOPe wings consider our Current American Revolution, a bad thing.

The more they stamp their feet and threaten to hold their breath, etc. the more you question, what is it about Trump that has them so fearful?

It’s more than what’s on the surface. It is not something that the public is even aware of. It has got to be much deeper than that...earth shattering in fact.

We have got to start digging deeper into their fear.

They are afraid that they will lose their status quo, power and money wise. This runs from the GOPe/RNC open border thugs to their thugs on FR not wanting our borders closed and protected.

So, each day, it appears that Trump's first missile re building a wall has struck fear/panic in those who depend on illegals as customers, workers and people to abuse.

Next, his plan of stopping the Muslim rapeogees from coming in created even more fear/panic among his haters. Which is more scary than just banning and getting rid of illegals. Why would any sane American be against stopping the flow of muslim rapogees/killers into our country?

When Christie becomes our AG!

We will see a mass exodus of criminals from DC and state capitols heading for Cuba and other places of sanctuary for them to avoid going to prison and losing their ill gotten gains.

In that case what are you doing here wasting bandwidth?

Because liberty and freedom is not limited to voting for politicians who want to be king, or the adoring mobs who see them as a political savior.

Sad that so many of you think this forum exists soley to push politicians for high office.

And sadly, we are no longer those latter peoples. This people are the former,

Human nature always desires a king to impose their desires.

Along with ad hominems, the Trumpsters also like to take debares to PM. Man Up Sissies, and keep your BS public. The fence sitters need a laugh.

Oh there’s hope for humanity Gramps.

Unlike you however, I do not put that hope into a man running for office that I want to be king because he will stick it to those I despise on the mere power of his words and apparently on his own authority.

Those of us who are highly educated have diversity of opinion, just like everyone else.

Not you personally. You are welcome to oppose Trump as is your prerogative as a citizen. I am not espousing conspiracy theories, but there is something that has them (the mediots, and GOPe/RNC) spooked. It’s more than we are aware of.

The reasons the mediots and GOPe/RNC types have stated sound like pablum for the masses to me. This sort of vitriol is not spewed forth for mere political gain. This sort of thing is done when the probability of real negative harm is imminent. Not just that their political fortunes have changed, it is something more. Their lives will change for the worse, with real harm physically coming to them.

The fear of going to prison is what puts this type of fear into people like that. The question is what sort of thing have they been engaged in that has not been exposed, that will be if Trump wins.

I wish I could put my finger on it and say “this is what has them scared”. I just have this suspicioin that what will be exposed is do damning, and may in fact be TREASON.

You do take the cake. You write to me and I am polite enough to answer so you try and spin that? I can lead you to the water but all you do is spit in it. Enjoy the race, enjoy your candidate. Your attacks are spurious.

No, it's exactly what's on the surface. Trump is a wealthy American patriot spending his own money and using his skill at playing the media to take on the globalist traitors.

The traitors don't like this at all so they're doing all they can to stop him... which, as it turns out, isn't much.
