A new campaign is underway by Republican establishment operatives to take out Donald Trump and ensure he's not the candidate of choice for the GOP - and the billionaire front-runner has taken to Twitter to call out the lead player as a "wacko" with few funding friends.
Trump described the operation this way on Twitter over the weekend: "A woman who got fired after two days of working with Scott Walker - a wacko - now trying to raise funds to fight me."
He was referring to Liz Mair, a brief former campaign worker for Walker's presidential push, who's now heading up Trump Card LLC. The Wall Street Journal reported on a memo that included Mair's expressed concern of "the stark reality is that unless something dramatic and unconventional is done, Trump will be the Republican nominee and Hillary Clinton will become president."
Trump's also firing a warning shot at the Republican National Committee about the effort to harm his candidacy, referencing the Journal's article and tagging the RNC's official Twitter account, @GOP, in his complaint.
"@WSJ reports that @GOP getting ready to treat me unfairly--big spending planned against me," Trump tweeted. "That wasn't the deal!"
In September, Trump signed a pledge not to run as an independent. He said at the time he was given the "assurance that I would be treated fairly" by RNC chairman Reince Priebus in return for agreeing to the "deal."

Sounds good.
Hopefully. Stand for nothing, you become nothing. We KNOW what the progs stand for. Don’t need 2 parties of that nonsense.
I seem to remember a one upmanship display of them all signing it at their leisure. Trying to pressure the man.
Bill Kristol says he will support a third party candidate if Trump wins the nomination.

The RNC makes the rules for the primaries and for the convention and can change those rules at will. They can rule Trump right out of contention.
A fools errand. But then again, fools do foolish things. It’s what they do.......
Cruz is my first choice, but I am supporting Trump for now. If Trump goes down in flames because of GOPe, then his best revenge will be to support Cruz. That way, he can keep the pledge, while at the same time break it, because the GOPe hates Cruz even more than Trump, they just aren’t focused on him right now.

Correction:
A new campaign is underway by Republican establishment operatives to take out Donald Trump and ensure that he runs as an independent, which virtually guarantees that NEITHER party will be able to defeat Hillary
The Rinos once again proving what traitors to the party they really are
What if Trump takes Cruz with him for a 3rd party run? Cruz doesn’t seem to be too happy with GOPe and he knows they won’t allow him to be the nominee either
I answer all their form letters - it makes them pay for the postage. I enclose a 3x5 note card that says, “I am not a Republican. I am a Conservative.”
Even more people will tell the RNC to shove it and donations to the RNC will suffer. What a bunch of jerks, especially Rinse My Penis.
I told the R NC to F-off in 08.
Trump ought to simply take over the GOP and fire them all.
They are already calling me 6 times a day for donations and I refuse to answer my phone.
I guess they still don't get it.
Our freedoms, how we live our lives, and what opportunities we will have is being decided by an oligarchy. Anyone from outside this oligarchy who threatens to make change will be attacked by the members of the oligarchy. Our system of government is infected, and it will not be easy to eradicate the infection.
The Republican Party wanted the Democrats to win the 2008 election and the Republican Party wanted Obama to win re-election in 2012. They fooled me both times. Both times I sold a portion of my soul and voted first for John McCain and then in 2012 for Mitt Romney.
I really wish more people understood this.So many,even here on FR,are still caught up in GOP vs DEM
I answered the phone and explained to them why they do not represent Conservatives and told them to stop calling.
