A concerted effort to take out Trump?

What took them so long?

I wonder if Trump has some ad ideas of his own?

“The Fox Business Network has learned that at least some of the campaigns are discussing an attack-ads blitz against The Donald in the coming weeks,”

Instead of wasting time and money on that, why don’t they just run adds telling us WHAT THEY WILL DO TO SOLVE AMERICA’S PROBLEMS.

I think the dwarves have to at least make a show of trying to take down Trump...rather than hording their money for next year.

Either way, it won’t matter - Trump will simply CLOBBER them over the head in response.

The sweet thing is that they are likely to have to end up supporting Cruz if they want to have a chance.....

Please note, everyone—while Walker, and to some degree Rubio, tries to pretend publicly for the base that they endorse a similar anti-immigration approach, as he has reportedly been doing all along, Walker has a different story for his open borders and pro-amnesty financial backers.

Walker is a GOPe-tool fraud.

GOPe : “ Just give us control of the House, and we will stop Obama”

“Well, we need majority Senate to stop Obama”

Nothing but lies and false promises.

Very simple talking points, and they all belong to Trump. The GOPe made their bed, they not only have to sleep in it, it is becoming their death bed.

After every attack on Trump, his poll numbers go up.

Everyone who tries to destroy Trump ends up being destroyed.

The “body count” grows daily.

Pass the popcorn. The list of GOP candidates is about to get whittled down.

Their efforts will backfire big time.

My gut feeling is this will all backfire on the GOPe.

They do not have any real ammunition to fire back at Trump that is valid, that will stick, that the American voter wants to hear.

The only real smart contender in the GOP field is Cruz who is paralleling Trump on the issues. Practically overnight Cruz went from being a nobody to a somebody.

Those that oppose Trump go from being a nobody to a nothing.

Just think of all the GOP resources going to kill it’s own that could be used against obama, Hillary and Sanders. It’s like they want to lose.

Here's the flaw.

The campaigns can't coordinate with the PACs, but the PACs can coordinate with each other. The PACs are the big donors. Trump is from the donor class, not the political class.

If the donors coordinate to attack Trump through their puppet candidates, then Trump should attack the donors, not the candidates, at least indirectly.

Trump's response ads should name the donors who are pulling the candidates' strings and point out that he's not a puppet of anyone else. He should point out that he was a big donor himself and that now is the time for him to step out for himself and not hide behind someone else.

He should close his ad by asking if voters want him or a stranger hiding behind the other candidates?

Too bad these warriors wouldn’t fight Dems as hard as they fight Conservatives.

“...with aims to hit Trump on various issues such as his controversial comments about immigration...”

If that is their plan, they are will be throwing their money away. These fools evidently have come to believe their own propaganda.

I guess they all want the Megyn Crowley Erick Erickson treatment on their FB pages. If they attack Trump its going to be an epic fail.

These people tell Fox Business that the campaigns of Wisconsin Gov. Scott Walker and Florida Sen. Marco Rubio in particular are currently raising money with aims to hit Trump on various issues such as his controversial comments about immigration, as well as his record as a businessman,

Go ahead, more people need to know the Donald's decisive position on such issues. Sure, a$$holes, help the man, tell the world on your dime. If Trump holds to his statement that he'll spend a billion on his campaign he can, at the drop of a hat, counter attack each and every one of these people and I hope he does. They simply haven't caught on that this guy fights to win. FUGOPe

Whoever is stupid enough to try this stunt .. will be out of the race within days of the ads.

If they are that clueless .. then let them drop out now and save their reputations, and their money.

I can’t help but wonder if this is another of Karl Rove’s little games .. because his Jebby is not doing too good.
