Calm Down
Bush is winning.

Though the Fox News promos state it is a debate of Republican candidates, most of the network’s on-air personalities have admitted publicly it has turned into the Donald Trump show as the top GOP contender has become the single most referenced topic on the minds of everyone following the 2016 Race for the White House.
That reality is not sitting well with GOP power brokers who are said to have made it clear to operatives linked to a variety of candidate camps that Donald Trump cannot be allowed to appear to win tomorrow night’s debate. Some are said to have taken an even more aggressive stance by indicating Trump’s Republican rivals are to “take him out” tomorrow night.
Trump has shocked the GOP establishment with his currently growing base of support based largely on his straight talk and a repeated promise to “Make America Great Again.”
That dominance is said to be facing its most focused challenge tomorrow night as Mr. Trump will be target #1 for a number of GOP hopefuls who have been told their own presidential hopes will be finished if they do not help in breaking the Trump momentum once and for all. This threat is said to come from an assortment of Wall Street and business interests concerned over the potential volatility of a Trump political machine – volatility that might make him “unmanageable” should he actually go on to become the Republican nominee.
It should also be noted some of these high-powered donors are helping to finance the campaigns of BOTH Hillary Clinton and Jeb Bush. Presently, Donald Trump represents the single greatest threat to their intention of controlling the outcome of the 2016 presidential election.
Of the candidates who are said to have been given their anti-Trump marching orders last night, one was apparently told with the greatest sense of urgency – Senator Marco Rubio
Senator Rubio is currently sitting near the bottom of the top-tier candidate rankings with just 5% support among Republican voters. He was not so long ago viewed by some to be a legitimate contender for the GOP nomination. If he is to regain that former momentum (and the all-important campaign dollars that come to a real contender) he must prove himself to the political donor class tomorrow night by coming out aggressively against Mr. Trump.
It was reportedly the Rubio campaign that was specifically given the directive to, “take Trump out” during this week’s debate.
....” Clinton & Bush, the Democrat and Republican candidate for 2016 as chosen by the financial and political cartels!!!”.....
Well it’s pretty much been that way for decades....but that’s what makes Trump so fascinating. He’s not seemingly IN their game. But he is playing “a” game....that the media has yet to figure out.
The media are the ones who are orchestrating much of who gets what face time...including Trump. So why did they give it to Trump? Is it because they have “time” to play him for ratings etc. or is there something more we are not privy to that the media “ownership” are cooking up?
Yes this comment makes all the other candidates look like little bought and paid for trinkets.
Of course, we already know both parties are owned by big donors, aka corporations.
No danger of that ;)
He can apologize all he wants I’m not voting for an evil liberal.
The GOP has decided to self destruct.
It does me absolutely no good to still be able to drive passed the office building that is filled with the H1-B’s that took my job. F*** ‘em, let ‘em move overseas.
It didn’t happen to me, but I have kids. Anyone that has kids needs to see this for what it is.
Honestly, I Trump wasn’t on my radar at first.
But the more the GOP attacks him, the more I respect him. If you are drawing that much flack, you must be on target.
Sure he does. Fast track trade for Obama?
There was one “payment” right there.
The fix is in people. I wouldn't be surprised if it was George Soros that was the Big Donor.
Insults will never win an argument, think about it.
The more stuff like this I hear the more I support Trump.
TAKE TRUMP OUT!! WE CAN’T CONTROL HIM!!!
no question about that - but that doesn’t mean their money and influence isn’t having an adverse effect on the nation.
If the GOP loses, the GOPe still retains its power. Keeping that power is paramount.
Further, I believe if a President Trump gets a look at the criminal files the NSA has on many in the GOPe as well as the Rats, he will have the Justice Dept. indict the lot of them.
If Trump were to expose but a small fraction of the corruption & collusion to the American people the Republican Party would collapse, & the Democratic Party would be known hence fore as the Communist Party USA.
Everyone above the rank of dog catcher in Washington, DC is terrified that an “outsider”, a non-politician, non-leech might expose them for the corruptocrats they truly are.
Maybe it is too late. Maybe the elites so control the system that can steal the election. You can bet they will try if Trump is elected. If they can’t now, it will happen soon & forevermore.
Maybe Trump is a total liar. Why? The guy could buy a country if he wanted to be king. Why lie your way into the Presidency only to then be attacked from BOTH parties, the media, & those that voted you into office, plus everybody else. Without a supportive GOP, Trump could easily be impeached for any corruption in office.
We know the GOPe is a bunch of liars for sure. We also know that if we have another weak President, if we have a President easily manipulated by the rich & powerful, the “land of the free & the home of the brave” will be no more.
I’ve heard that, and if by it is meant “He could decide to stop running.”, then I agree with it.
If “he’ll make a gaffe” is what’s meant, then I think he has the money to turn around any problem with the way he says something.
If it’s true that Jeb has been calling Trump an asshole, then we know those same words from Trump would be plastered all over the media AND loudly proclaimed (again) as the gaffe that takes out Trump.
Why are they not the gaffe that takes out Bush?
You can tell a lot about a person by the enemies he keeps. Trump is making enemies with all the right people. The fact that all the Uniparty candidates and their doners feel so threatened by Trump should give lie to the claim that Trump is a Democrat plant, which only the most delusional Freepers (for example “Cherry”) still believe. The people who would most know if Trump were a Democrat plant (i.e. the Uniparty doner class) obviously don’t think he is, or they wouldn’t feel so threatened by him.
If Trump takes himself out - it will be that his inner liberal sneaks out and is in contrasts to the true conservatives. I have my ideas on when/what issue that might happen.
But no moderator will take him out. Neither will Jeb. Or Perry.
Hey Second Division Vet, did you read that about your Cruz?
