Tripwire Alert – The RNC, GOPe, Marco Rubio, Chris Christie and Donald Trump…
Conservative Treehouse ^ | 2/26/2016 | Sundance

Posted on 02/26/2016 5:10:00 PM PST by usafa92

Today the political landscape just became infinitely more interesting. In order to understand the current landscape, and simultaneously explain what it means, we must weave in and out of history because this tripwire alert needs reference points.

At the most basic of level we must remember candidate Marco Rubio was never supposed to be the GOPe's standard bearer for the professional republican party. It simply was not his role.

A single-term, 44-year-old, freshman senator, with a wife, four kids, no accumulated wealth and no executive experience, does not independently mount a long-shot bid to become the chief executive office holder amid the power-elites who run the highest political offices.

Rubio was/is 'a means' - to an end. Rubio does not represent the end goal, he never did.

"The RNC/GOPe are now facing the looming probability that Chris Christie was a mole, an insurgent, the entire time."

Yeah, let them squirm for once. How does it feel lefties? Remember, "The issue is never the issue, the issue is OUR Revolution Now!"

Fight for America!

The “Forever” stamps that you paid $.49 for will now be worth only $.47. Wake up! Negative interest rates are here!

Giuliani is going to have to move to NJ or CT. Both Trump and he cannot be from the same state on the same ticket.

More likely Kasich or Guiliani for VP.


NOT Giuliani....maybe for DHS or another cabinet position.

Kasich has been kissing up.....

If I had to put money on it I would pick Kasich as most likely also.

The Koch brothers and Mitt Romney are attempting to take down Donald Trump by way of Paul Ryan, Reince Priebus and Jr Senator Rubio.

Ted Cruz should not align himself with these people, otherwise, he becomes the bought and paid for establishment.

Too late....CRuzio has already aligned himself with this sleaze group.

“Christie has to be VP”

Christie would be awesome on the campaign trail, but I still wonder if Christie would rather be AG.

Not sure that Trump wants to knock Cruz out ‘badly.’ Cruz did a pretty good job knocking himself out. Though I do admit that it would be pretty devastating to what’s left of Cruz’s campaign to lose his home state, even if there’s only maybe one delegate’s difference.

And the heck you talking about, heir apparent?

I understand Cruz is still hoping to get Butter Bean and Wee Man’s endorsements. :-)

RushRINO has always been GOP-e.

He exposes himself when he goes 3rd person (”golfing buddies”) and complains/attacks social conservatives.

Now, by pushing the “full-throated conservative” Cruzio, RushRINO has fully removed his mask and all sees his GOP-e credentials.

If it helps him get elected , Trump will say or promise anything. It would be a knif in either Democrat for Van Jones to endorse him and appeal to young blacks, all for the nothing burger of Commerce Secretary. BTW, without googling , who is Commerce Secretary today? Can you name one since Ron Brown? How about before?
