Trump Allies Plot Candidate Intervention After Disastrous 48 Hours
by CHUCK TODD and HALLIE JACKSON

Key Republicans close to Donald Trump’s orbit are plotting an intervention with the candidate after a disastrous 48 hours led some influential voices in the party to question whether Trump can stay at the top of the Republican ticket without catastrophic consequences for his campaign and the GOP at large.

Republican National Committee head Reince Priebus, former Republican New York City mayor Rudy Giuliani and former House Speaker Newt Gingrich are among the Trump endorsers hoping to talk the real estate mogul into a dramatic reset of his campaign in the coming days, sources tell NBC News.

The group of GOP heavyweights hopes to enlist the help of Trump’s children - who comprise much of his innermost circle of influential advisers - to aid in the attempt to rescue his candidacy. Trump’s family is considered to have by far the most influence over the candidate’s thinking at what could be a make-or-break moment for his campaign.

The idea is in its early stages, and there’s no guarantee that Trump’s team would entertain a conversation requiring such comprehensive changes for a candidate who has resisted calls to moderate his tone or reel in his most outlandish political positions.

Beck was just hoping for Trump to drop out and maybe pull Cruz back in. If not he said Mittens would be a better choice even if he disagrees with some of his policies, at least Mitt is honest.

God has apparently given many over to delusion.

Chuck Todd writes scripts with, and for, the DNC and Obama,
and it shows in the slimy sweat which oozes
from his face as he pouts lie upon lie.

PR-rep Todd is a pseudo-journalist who works tirelessly
to sell (SELL) out his own country and profession.

Donald J Trump must be ten points ahead in the private polls! He is driving them crazy! The reaction to Mike Pence as his running mate has been fantastic here in Arizona. The campaign schedule they are keeping up will simply kill Hillary if she tries to keep up.

F-chuck and his fellow sock puppets are preaching to the choir...as their network masters squirm about waiting for the next shoe to drop, exposing the slime they've bestowed on this country for decades.

Let'em shoot their wad, by October the public will have had enough of their lies and manipulative tactics...IF there's an independent(thinking)brain left among the masses that is.

Hollywood/academia brain-fornicating is very strong among the young. A future disaster for America, unless there is a(spiritual/intellectual)awakening.

I totally disregard anything Chuck Todd and Hallie Jackson have to say and I suggest that everyone who comes here to read do the same.

Did NBC peeps ask Rudy and Newt to verify this report?

Almost everyone in DC is running so scared of Trump. And they should be.

By CHUCK TODD?! In honor of the day marking the Chambers-Hiss hearings, why not refer to him as Alger Todd.

Well sweethearts, you and the MSM just wrote your own obituaries.
