BREAKING: Trump Likely to be BANNED from Future Republican Debates
Political INsider ^ | 21 AUG 2015 | TPIWriter

This report should make Donald Trump supporters angry! While taxpayers are often funding political debates, the Republican Party has the ultimate say over its own events. And while the GOP is supposed to stand for the principles of the Founding Fathers, it can be manipulated by the political establishment which can’t stand Trump’s conservative views.

The real reason why the GOP is focusing on Trump’s threat to run as a 3rd party candidate is it would give them grounds to boot him from future debates. The Republican Party, to protect its interests, is probably willing to boot the front-runner candidate. And they have savvy enough operatives, such as Karl Rove, who are ready to do it…

I’m not saying the RNC isn’t that stupid.

But I fail to see how this story provides evidence that they are about to do it.

Stupid people. He would gain another 20%-30% in the polls from that.

This is such pathetic B.S. Trump’s campaign manager is the ultimate establishment insider. They have no intention of banning Trump, even though he is a Democrat.

I’m a Cruz and Trump guy as well, and in that order, always saying a prayer for them...that they win and also to stay safe!

We should run a poll here on FR... who do you support at this time.

I bet it would come in

1-Cruz
2-Trump
3-Carson

He would never spend that much money, especially when he can get it for free. Trump will be allowed in every debate until he drops out.

Jeb Bush is only above water because polls inflate his numbers.

The Network Mad-As-Hell ire of the majority has only begun to simmer.

Should Rove and Murdoch and the rest of the Chamber of Commerce cabal excommunicate Trump it's a Reagan moment:

I didn't leave the Democrat Party--the Party left me.

The Republicans lost in 2006 and 2008. Conservatives won in 2010. Republicans lost in 2012. Conservatives won in 2014.

The question is will Republicans lose America in 2016 or will it be the year conservatives save America?

In a Bush-Clinton-Trump contest, who has the momentum?

Why would he call it the “New Reagan-Republican Party” when he hated Reagan and called him a shyster?

If you won’t commit to support the winner of the primary, you should be thrown out. If you want to run as an independent do it sooner rather than later.

A ban on Donald Trump to keep him from future debates... Would BLOW UP in the faces of the GOP/RNC. The Backlash would be enormous. The 25-30 percent who now poll to support Trump would go to 35-40 percent at the very next debate and even leading up to it.

All Trump would have to do it hold a HUGE Town Hall with live streaming to overlap the next debates. Then run ads making fun of the GOP/RNC for being chicken shit. Trump could take out Billboard ads in the run up to the Debates, and have Talk Radio Run a Marathon session overlapping and boycotting the Debates. Social Media would run Boycott challenges to all comers -— Facebook and Twitter would be awash with protests by the tens of millions.

We always knew the GOP/RNC were idiots —if they do this there will be no doubt.

“Heard joke once: Man goes to doctor. Says he's depressed. Says life seems harsh and cruel. Says he feels all alone in a threatening world where what lies ahead is vague and uncertain. Doctor says, "Treatment is simple. Great clown Pagliacci is in town tonight. Go and see him. That should pick you up." Man bursts into tears. Says, "But doctor...I am Pagliacci.”

Not a Trump supporter here, but the GOP is going to have a major problem on its hands if it tries to exclude him from the debates. Like him or not, Trump’s the current frontrunner and until someone overtakes him, he belongs at center stage.

This is a potentially winnable election. Don’t f*** it up, GOP.

Wow...you people are gullible...

There is not a single actual quote from anyone in the GOPe about the debates or Trump...

This used to be called propaganda....

I think this is the best thing the GOP-e could do. Rather than letting the dying old elephant linger for years, just kill it off.

If the dumb ass GOPe media hadn’t attacked him to begin with, Trump might still be at 4% or whatever in the polls. What made Trump shoot up was that voters liked his snappy responses to being attacked. Morons created this monster themselves. Couldn’t stop whoring for ratings and trying to get brownie points by “speaking out” against Trump for being a big mean Bully to Senator John McCain or illegal aliens or whoever.

Very well written. I’m just guessing that you have some published works...
