Democrats plan to make Donald Trump their key villain in torching the entire Republican Party
Business Insider ^ | March 27, 2016 | Maxwell Tani

Democrats have a new goal for the 2016 elections: Make Donald Trump like Todd Akin.

Akin, then a US Senate candidate in Missouri, ignited a media firestorm in 2012 when he asserted that women rarely get pregnant in cases of "legitimate rape" because they have ways to "shut that whole thing down."

Speaking to Business Insider last week, two operatives working for female Democratic US Senate candidates mentioned how Democrats hoped to use Trump's comments about women much as Democrats used Akin's comments in 2012.

And Democrats would appear to have plenty to work with when it comes to Trump.

Yea what ever. Just another B/S article . Notice how the media will not go after anyone else, strange maybe because Trump is right on target , unlike the others.

Trump may be boorish but ,Akin was just an idiot. Thinking you can play Trump the same way is laughable.

Difference is Trump is not going to passively absorb punches like that incompetent fool who ran last time. Trump is a warrior who will unleash hell.

When people realize that the media IS THE DEMOCRAT party they only begin to understand. There is no evening news with journalists. In place of newscasts are democrat/liberal activists promoting their agenda disguised as “news.” Donald Trump has chosen to take the media head-on. They are the enemy of our Republic. One of the greatest mistakes of the Bush administration was to be defined by the activists. He chose to “take the high road.” His legacy is defined through the lens of these activists that posed as journalists. The Trumpster is calling it correctly by attacking the media as a bunch of shills for the left. Whoever gets the nomination in the Republican party needs to shrink the mediarhoids with some Preparation H. They need to be destroyed in every interview.

The biggest problem for the rats is that their leading candidates are an obvious criminal and a communist. This is the first time in a long time they may face a republican opponent who is not too polite to point those things out. Often and loudly.

The GOPe of the party are pure rotten communists as far as I am concerned. The party is split and may collapse in the near future.

Wait until Sarah Palin gets back down here to take on the Lame Stream Media in defense of Trump. I can imagine her putting on her TV show judge’s robes and yelling out, with gavel in hand, “Hey Media, Donnald’s my guy! The mama grizzly bear in me comes out, makes me want to rear up on my hind legs and say, ‘Case closed, you’re guilty!’”

I don’t support Trump. But this will not work. You’re not going to take away Trump’s supporters.

Todd Akins’ opponent was not married to Bill Clinton. So no, Democrats, this will fail.

By the time Trump destroys the democrats he will have destroyed the republicans and become the nominee. Trump has great creds for obliterating entire parties.
