Why is Pinch trying to help bring down Trump if, as the GOPe oligarchs, plutocrats and rich campaign donors claim, Trump will be slaughtered by Hillary? Shouldnt Pinch be trying to PROMOTE Trump in that case?
Their private polls and focus groups have them in a full blown panic state. They know Trump will crush the criminal or the old hippie socialist.
That's a good question.
The polls showing Trump losing to Hillary don't prove anything and everyone knows it. Sulzberger fears Trump because, even if he thinks the polling is unbiased and accurate today, he knows that a lot can change in a week, let alone six months. If Trump is nominated he might win. And no doubt internal polling and focus group research has shown that Hillary can be beaten by someone willing to go after her hard. No one will go after Hillary harder than Trump, I can guarantee that.
