With time running out until the first primary votes are cast, establishment Republicans have begun a ferocious round of finger-pointing over who is to blame for the party's failure to stop Donald Trump.
The chiding, once limited to private conversations, is now erupting in public view â with campaigns, operatives, donors, party officials and conservative intellectuals arguing over why something hasn't been done to stop the man who has been leading nearly every state and national poll since August. Trump, many in the GOP's upper ranks are convinced, would lead the Republican Party to an epic defeat in November, with consequences all the way down the ballot.
"This whole thing is a disaster," said Curt Anderson, a former Republican National Committee political director and veteran operative. "I think I'll write a book about it."

You bozos did it yourselves.
You (both parties, everyone) have been selling out America for the entire last generation.
EVERYONE.
Trump is standing up, and saying America first.
He is the first one to actually say that. In an entire generation.
He is the first.
First.
The Republicans are too stupid. Trump is ahead of them by leaps and bounds.
Trump is trying to prove he is the biggest star in the Debate not Kelly. None of these talking heads would dare challenge Hillary or Obama in a similar manner. They all worked around the clock to get Obama elected twice.
FR not respecting the huge Tony Perkins endorsement of Cruz, they dont want it on the front page, not given the same respect that the Falwell for Trump was given.
People like George Will, Charles Krauthammer, Megyn Kelley, John McCain, Jeff Flake, especially John Boehner and Mich McConnell for starters, oh yeah, Reince Priebus...et al.
I love this article so much it should be illegal.
Who let Boehner, McConnell go as far as they did and still do?
The GOP-e is responsible for their piss-poor popularity among their constituency that shows them to be weak and vulnerable and has attracted a predator who seeks power, privilege and attention. All they had to do was drop the “e” and respect their Conservative base BY DOING WHAT YOU WERE SENT TO WASHINGTON TO DO. Of course it would also help if you didn’t change primary rules to benefit the “e” or spend RSNC money sent to you by Conservatives against Conservatives in Republican primaries. I’ve voted R in every primary and election for over fifty years, the only democrats I voted for ran as Republicans. The only use I have for the Republican party now is that it’s a path to election for Conservatives. When they successfully stop that, I’ll have no use for them at all.
ESAD after you drop your nose from the vertical.
Anderson: Wait until weepubwickan overlord Biggus Pweebus hears of this outwage you wabbid wapscalians!
{ centurions snickering }
Let’s see: let’s betray the People who put us in office, dip our hands in the lobbyist slush fund, lie down and die whenever Obama snaps his fingers and give in to blackmail, and then blame the first person whose armoured tank crossed our red line!
They enjoyed watching the base go bananas for long enough already.
Great name wasted on this guy:
