In fact, when it comes to primaries, the tea party-aligned Trump sounds a whole lot like GOP establishment leaders -- calling for pragmatism over purity -- rather than tea party groups.
...Maness is in the single digits while Rep. Bill Cassidy polls as the GOP frontrunner against Sen. Mary Landrieu (D-La.).
"The Republicans have to win," Trump said. "Im a very conservative person, but Republicans have to win."

(It should be noted here that the U.S. Senate race in Louisiana would come down to a two-candidate runoff if no candidate gets 50 percent of the vote -- a likely outcome. In that case, those other candidates wouldn't be on the ballot anyways.) Trump picked the wrong state to try and make a point. Since Louisiana is one of the sensible states that does have runoffs in primary elections, if a candidate proves to have little support, the votes he does receive won't prevent voters from picking from top two finishers if no one gets 50%.

And this silly WP column is nothing but a further attempt to claim a diminished Tea Party influence.

Let the clueless Washington Compost print and think what they want about the TEA Party.
The TEA Party will be “speaking” loudly the first Tuesday in November.
