The Sea Island Conspiracy (GOP oligarchs gather)
lewrockwell.com ^ | 3/12/16 | Patrick J Buchanan

Posted on 03/13/2016 7:22:34 AM PDT by cotton1706

Over the long weekend before the Mississippi and Michigan primaries, the sky above Sea Island was black with corporate jets.

Apple’s Tim Cook, Google’s Larry Page and Eric Schmidt, Napster’s Sean Parker, Tesla Motors’ Elon Musk, and other members of the super-rich were jetting into the exclusive Georgia resort, ostensibly to participate in the annual World Forum of the American Enterprise Institute.

Among the advertised topics of discussion: “Millennials: How Much Do They Matter and What Do They Want?”

That was the cover story.

As revealed by the Huffington Post, Sea Island last weekend was host to a secret conclave at the Cloisters where oligarchs colluded with Beltway elites to reverse the democratic decisions of millions of voters and abort the candidacy of Donald Trump.

Among the journalists at Sea Island was Rich Lowry of National Review, which just devoted an entire issue to the topic: “Against Trump,” and Arthur Sulzberger, publisher of the Trumphobic New York Times.

Bush guru Karl Rove of FOX News was on hand, as were Speaker Paul Ryan, Majority Leader Mitch McConnell and Sen. Lindsey Graham, dispatched by Trump in New Hampshire and a berserker on the subject of the Donald.

So, too, was William Kristol, editor of the rabidly anti-Trump Weekly Standard, who reported back to comrades: “The key task now, too… paraphrase Karl Marx is less to understand Trump than to stop him.”

Kristol earlier tweeted that the Sea Island conclave is “off the record, so please do consider my tweets from there off the record.”

Because the left was represented I want to know if the violence at Trump rallies is part of the plan hatched at Sea Island.

Was Bush the messanger to the 3 stooges on debate day telling them to layoff Trump, that they have a plan to take him out.

The Cheap Labor Express has no intention of allowing the citizens to elect a President that shuts them down.

Now we are beginning to learn who the real enemies are.

I suspect the meeting with Yeb was to coordinate talking points for the three stooges to respond to the violence that was going to erupt on Friday, and had been coordinated prior to that.

Are these meetings where they get their stale talking points from?

Seems like all the ABT people use the same talking points.

The talking points are faxed from some central location, probably the DNC main headquarters.

It's just like when Clinton was president and all of the news organizations said the same thing simultaneously, trying to pass it off as original. Remember the sudden popularity of the word "gravitas," a word most people had never even heard of?

The RNC caused the rise of Trump by ignoring the will of the voters decade after decade, even as the voters made it more and more clear what they wanted and expected from their representatives. It's going to be hard to put that cow back in the barn.

And it all came apart when Trump cancelled the Rally...and the youts didn't get the message to back off

The whole episode was exposed on wall to wall national TV

I sense a RICO against the participants.

“Hateful Rhetoric” is always a dead giveaway.

They think we’re stupid.

Staunch Conservatives such as Tim Cook of Apple and Eric Schmidt of Google ,

Cruz is the True Conservative ? Rush Limbaugh and Mark Levin?

Of course they do. Leftists are motivated by the belief that they are more wise and intelligent than the riff-raff--thus justifying their desire to control every aspect of our lives. This is just as true of leftists who carry an "R" after their names.

Yes, I thought about Jekyll Island when I first heard of this conspiratorial conclave.

This gem from Daniel Greenfield: "Liberalism isn't really about making the world a better place. It's about reassuring the elites that they are good people for wanting to rule over it."
