GOP Establishment’s Rick Wilson: Donor Class Must ‘Put a Bullet in Donald Trump’
Breitbart's Big Government ^ | October 28, 2015 | Tony Lee

On Tuesday evening, establishment Republican consultant Rick Wilson said the GOP establishment donor class must find a way to “put a bullet” in GOP frontrunner Donald Trump.

In an interview with MSNBC’s Chris Hayes, Wilson conceded that “Trump is still a very powerful force right now” because he appeals to part of the of the conservative base that Wilson said was activated by his “nativist” message. Wilson insisted that the donor class “can’t just sit back on the sidelines and say, ‘oh well, don’t worry, this will all work itself out.’”

“They’re still going to have to go out and put a bullet in Donald Trump,” Wilson said. “And that’s a fact.”

Republican establishment figures who have underestimated Trump since he entered the race are reportedly looking to raise millions to try to derail Trump and knock him out of the race. Wilson added that the Republican establishment must figure out a way to find a candidate who can successfully “post up” against Hillary Clinton because “neither Donald Trump or Ben Carson is ready to go up against the Clinton machine. Wilson claimed that Trump and Carson are “obviously not ready for primetime.”(continued)

The Donald does not bluff, he promises. And apparently he has been pretty successful at it all his life.

He is also unpredictable.

If I were Trump, I would insist that the FBI immediately arrest this scum..... or, considering I would be a multi billionaire, I might choose to have him disappeared before my next breakfast.

Rick Wilson had better be praying that someone does not try to shoot Trump, because he will be in deep do-do if that does happen.

Henry II said of Thomas Becket ‘will no one rid me of this troublesome priest?’ and some of the king’s men assassinated him. GOPe playing the role of Henry; would love to see Trump removed from the scene because Trump represents an existential threat to them.

Yes, Trump is a threat to them and their cocktail party mentality. What dorks. I do wonder however, if anyone ever mentioned Vince Foster as being troublesome?

Trump mentioned in his Iowa speech yesterday, that the consultants get 50-60% of the funds raised in the superpacs and they never go towards advertising or to benefit the candidate.

Tough guy, that Rick Wilson fellow. I’d bet the farm that he wouldn’t last 5 minutes on a battlefield.
