'They want a puppet that they can control, Donald will never be that person'
Although Donald Trump has signed a pledge to support the Republican Party's nominee, that doesn't mean the party's establishment will support him, should he win the GOP presidential nod.
A report by the Hill suggests the big money Republican donors are actually looking to support Hillary Clinton for commander in chief if Trump is at the top of the GOP ticket. Yes, the Democrat Hillary Clinton could be getting millions of dollars from Republicans.
The website says: "In conversations over the past month, GOP establishment donors have confided to the Hill that for the first time in recent memory, they find themselves contemplating not supporting a Republican nominee for president."
When asked for whom he would cast his vote if the choices are only Mrs. Clinton and Trump, the former mayor of Los Angeles and a longtime Republican establishment figure, Dick Riordan, said: "I would probably go find a deserted island."

If that's true, it's as serious as a heart attack and could/should be the price of a VP nom, if Trump goes all the way to the nomination.
That's exactly how GS works, influence buying and selling.
Truth in advocacy: Lloyd Blankfein at Goldman is sitting on what used to be my retirement. If I lost it fair and square on a market bet, well, that's my fault. But that is not what happened.
It's no longer true, what the old marketarians around Charles Dow used to say, right down to when Marty Zweig used to say it on Lou Rukeyser's show, that nobody but nobody is big enough to get his arms around the market.
I believed that, more fool me. I bet against a frozen deck and lost.
They see the big picture far more than most do here or anywhere else. Let’s just take Florida for an example. I have now decided to embark on a quest to do the same for all 50 states. Freep-mail me with any links from other states that will help me create a table that I will post.
SEC Presidential Primaries - March 12
Florida Federal Representatives & Senate filing deadline - June 24
Florida non Presidential Primary - August 30
Now, lets assume that Trump wins out through SEC Tuesday.
At that time, I say he begins to pivot and then court Citizen Legislators for his support to “take out” the establishment pukes in their own state primaries. All he has to do is fly that “Big Beautiful Plane” of his to rallies in and around those districts to lend his public support for the people who will work with him to “Make Our Country Great Again”.
All 435 Congressional seats will be on the ballots next November
34 Senatorial seats will also be on the ballots of 34 states.
This is their biggest fear. For even is he is successful in 25% of the chances, it totally changes Congress to a group that will be inclined to work for us instead of these Star Chamber wannabees written about in this article.
IMHO, he was originally in it because some of them stiffed him. Something along the way happened when he figured out there are far more people who are in the same boat for a lot more proportionally and his populism became a bigger reason.
Just proof positive it’s all just one Uniparty.

You so nailed it.
Unitopia?
Trump had to sign a pledge for GOP Establishment but GOP establishment has ZERO ALLEGIANCE..haha
‘They want a puppet that they can control”..........
If the dumb ass rinos think they are going to control Hitlary, they are dumber than I originally thought.
Time for a third party when/if the rinos back ole thunder thighs.
“GOP establishment to back Hillary if Trump nominee”
If that happens the GOP will be dead and the T Party will emerge.
I don’t know any “idiots” who believe, write, or respond to this stuff.
It’s being reported by more than one news organization.
Trump was a NYC businessman with his small donations to HELLry - not a politician.
Nice try, charlie tuna!
That's exactly what I envision as well. If Trump/Cruz win the GOP nomination, there will be a riot in the convention the likes of which no one has ever seen. The GOPe will bolt the Party.
Then, a unity ticket will be formed from the UniParty for the sole purpose of defeating Trump/Cruz. I think the PTB will choose Hill and Rubio.
Good. That’s your opinion.
Sounds like they’re worried about Trump taking the nomination...
Doesn’t matter if Trump is supposedly not even that conservative. He is against illegal immigration. That’s all that matters to the GOPe.
Trump supporters care.
I believe it will happen.
GS is evil. When those guys are involved they are up to no good. They are psychopaths.
That Cruz’ wife is involved with them is of a real concern. I like Cruz a lot but this GS connection makes me question his whole candidacy because I do not know how much influence GS has over Cruz. Wherever GS gets involved you know GS never ever loses but whoever is on the other side of the deal will most likely lose and usually GS picks on people who are largely innocent.
Another thing is that I would like to know how much money GS has contributed to Cruz in his superpacs. If it has then this is very very serious and a deal killer and I am wondering what Cruz is really up to. Is he a phony like all the others? That would be very disappointing. I like him but if GS is in there he should not be near the government.
We have a one party system of the elite.
