Not by panicking, many of these “Republicans” are already corrupt and need very little, if any, persuasion, forgive me.

Democrats + Republicans = Progressives, the TRUE enemy.

It has been said time and again that most liberals have a mental illness. I have news for some, it doesn’t just exist in the Democrat Party and Dan Greenfield identifies those in the Republican Party that share the illness. Both of these groups are off their rockers.

Those “Never Trump” fools are squarely in the Hillary camp and should be run out of the party. And later, perhaps the country. If they turn over the country to Hillary, they are reprehensible and it goes downhill from there.

Inside-the-beltway republicans are already so corrupted they’ll fall right in with hillary’s schemes.

While the story is balanced and explains Clinton's leverage of the dishonest media, in some ways I think Greenfield is making a mountain out of a molehill.

The NeverTrump within the GOP is a fringe element. It's a vocal group because it's made up of media types (Will, Kristol, Beck) but its voter supporter are much smaller than Greenfield suggests. The article fails to mention the serious defections from Democrat circles that Trump will win:

But I very much agree with Greenfield that the media attacks strongly suggest the media doesn't really believe all the Hillary-favorable polls.

Trump is very much over the target and the flak is relentless. Yet the man of steel is skilled at deflecting media attacks and turning them to his advantage.

The silent majority will come out and vote this year. The only real kryptonite issue Trump has is voter fraud.

I think those “Republicans” who are already going to vote for Hillary (not out of fear) for a variety of issues are not the ones in question.

There is an orchestrated campaign by The Media (I don’t even call them the MSM much any more) to paint Trump as stupid, dangerous, reckless, inexperienced, racist, short-tempered, tired, ill-willed, simplistic, etc.

This is not aimed at Trump per se, except to goad him into saying something impolitic.

This is aimed at weak Republicans, and undecideds of both the Left and right, the idiots who really think this is a real race between two equally valid choices. As hard as it is to believe, those precious “undecideds” are out there, and this onslaught is meant to switch them.

And to demoralize us, and provide them with entertainment.

The reality is that Trump and the RNC need each other to win in November. The enemy that needs to be focused on is Hillary and the Democrats, not republicans.

This does not mean that Trump or anyone else has to agree on everything. If some RINO wants to endorse Hillary, Priebus should let them know that no RNC funds will go their way. That will stop these principle-less defections. It is time to be united and get behind the candidate.

It may be a fringe element, but when you couple it with the non stop democrat/media complex incessantly painting Trump as deranged, unfit, incompetent and dangerous, it is having an effect.

It’s important for all of us to repudiate these people and their propaganda any time we can.

Knowing what we NOW KNOW about odumbo, it would be interesting to see how Trump would fare compared to odumbo in a presidential election.

Can someone tell me if the Republican establishment was fully behind Reagan?

” . .it is having an effect.”

True,

This is also what I see as being shown to us from the book of Revelation where ‘images that move and speak’ give power to the Beast. Where what the MSM says day in and day out to the uninformed, un-scriptured earth dwelling masses, it becomes their delusion of truth and they believe the lie, it has nothing to do with intelligence,

We become like the ‘gods’ we worship, we become what we see all day long occupying our thoughts, if we have friends or relatives that sit and watch what spews from their television or smart phone all day, without a firm grounding in biblical truth they will begin to echo the lie,

Put them on the 'short bus' and send them to FEMA's 'summer camp' re-education center.

Donald Trump says at his family’s that it has been over 200 days since Hillary has has a news conference and that is good to remind people,but with a lot of his statements end there,he does not show righteous indignation!You have to do more than raise your voice an state a headline,Hillary has not had a news conference in over 200 days,what is she hiding,why won’t a candidate who wants to be Commander in Chief,who has to face up to brutal dictators,send men and women into harms way,and deal with huge problems,come before the American People and explain what exactly were you doing for 4 years as Secretary of State?
Come on Donald get after it,Call her out,you have a mountain of evidence against her,use it,expand,not just bumper stickers

In a way, we ARE seeing that. Odumbo is running right alongside hillary, I’ve never remembered a sitting president actively campaigning for the one who is the extension of his third term. Normally it’s just an endorsement, but Odumbo is actively out there almost more than hillary.

The only difference is Trump is being fragged in the back by many members of his own party, making it more difficult to see a genuine one on one match up with Odumbo.

Yes, and this is why every “Never Trump” Republican should be forever quarantined like a group of people with a highly contagious and fatal disease.
