WASHINGTON Donald Trump has finally acknowledged that to best compete against Hillary Clinton he needs more than the bare-bones campaign team that led him to primary success. But many of the most experienced Republican political advisers arent willing to work for him.
(Snip)
While there are exceptions, many strategists who best understand the mechanics of presidential politics fear that taking a Trump paycheck might stain their resumes, spook other clients and even cause problems at home. They also are reluctant to devote months to a divisive candidate whose campaign has been plagued by infighting and disorganization.
Right now I feel no obligation to lift a finger to help Donald Trump, said Brent Swander, an Ohio-based operative who has coordinated nationwide logistics for Republican presidential campaigns dating to George W. Bush.
Everything that were taught as children not to bully, not to demean, to treat others with respect everything were taught as children is the exact opposite of what the Republican nominee is doing. How do you work for somebody like that? What would I tell my family? Swander said.

As in years past, the primary season created a pool of battle-tested staffers who worked for other candidates, from which Trump would be expected to draw. But hundreds of such aides have so far declined invitations to work for him.
(Snip)
Chris Wilson, a senior aide to Ted Cruz, said the Texas senators entire paid staff of more than 150 ignored encouragement from Trumps team to apply for positions after Cruz quit the presidential race. Wilson said that even now, many unemployed Cruz aides are refusing to work for the man who called their former boss Lyin Ted.

I wonder how many of these leeches were even asked. Probably very few. The rest are just beating their chest turning down an offer that was only made in their own mind.
Fixed.
RNC is short of funds YEAH the boycott is working, because we have learned to give only to the candidates due to their using our $$ to fund aging and should be retired RINOS like McNasty, McConnell, CRY BABY etc.
I held my nose and voted for the last 2, why should I do it this time around? Trump can’t turn the country around with EO’s, it’s already rooted in SOCIALISM so deep it will take several decades of Constitutional Conservatives to root it out. If you don’t have the Constitutional Conservatives down ballot you are DOA in the water. I have a new US Rep to pick, and only 1 has the gonads of a Constitutional Conservative of the batch, rest are GOPe establishment tools who side all to often with the RATS and cave to them. GET RID of Cry Baby’s Clone Ryan first off.
Start naming names of companies who move our jobs out of country, and announce that he is bringing his clothing line back to the USA pronto as an example.
We should reduce ALL legal immigration drastically no matter where they come from.
Well the folks like Rovio and his crew can tsk tsk all they want
Trump will figure out a way and we can help
Get out the vote
I’m shocked another anti-Trump article from WaPo.
Since Trump wisely took their credentials away...why should FR post their progressive drivel?
Vote Trump 2016
I am sure Trump will manage to get along without them.
“Considering that Trump is out of cash and will no longer fund his campaign, shouldn’t he be working full time on his campaign instead of showing off a golf course. Where are his priorities?”
Wow, you should run to your safe place ASAP & read up on what’s actually happening up to this point in the campaign. His “priority” is winning the general election. He’s going to win. Here’s you a crying towel to get you through.
Vote Trump 2016
What kinda strategies have they come up with?
Nominate the most unelectable boring dull Dole?
Roll over and play dead Mc Lame?
Take a dive Mutt?
Feed em fish heads!
You prefer the Hilary party who will sell us all (democrat and republican) out to the highest bidder, foreign and domestic, on day one? You want America’s enemies sleeping in the Lincoln bedroom again? You sound like you don’t care anyway or given up.
Correct. The McCain/Romney/Jeb formula is not a winning one. Trump has a greater support of Americans with African and Latin American ancestry that those other 3 losers. Trump will win if he ignores the GOPtards.
Please post here where Trump accused Cruz’ father of having some involvement with JFK’s assassination.
Please post here where Trump is out of cash and will no longer fund his campaign.
I won’t be holding my breath. These lies you are espousing need to end. With friends like you....who needs enemies? You are spreading lies as well as the socialists.
“Trump, the billionaire candidate, has no money left in his bank account, so he has told the RNC he can’t afford to build the get out the vote infrastructure and run it, so he has asked the RNC to be responsible for it and run Trump’s get out the vote effort. The RNC doesn’t have the money either, so they have agreed to be responsible for raising the money and running the operation. So be a bit kind to it. Trump needs them after all.”
Absolute 100% BS pap. As I read down this thread, every single post you are making is filled with lies.
Also, note “Joni Ernst” and “pro-Bush” in the same sentence. Hummm?
*************************
The Cheap Labor Express stooges are self-identifying for those who have taken off their blinders.
Trump’s instincts are better than the advisors to the 16 failures in the primary.
Disappointed, sick and tired of RINOS being ‘selected’ by the MSM and GOPe blue blood elitist who do not put the US Citizens first. Who allow our Military and schools to be experimental LBGT agendas. While lining their own pockets.
Then I go further down the forum and find this: Trump shifts immigration plan: No ‘mass deportations’
http://thehill.com/blogs/ballot-box/presidential-races/284910-trump-shifts-tone-no-mass-deportations
What happen to rounding them up and deporting them NOW?
“Another thing this guy is ignoring is that Trump was a counter puncher. He usually didnt just set out to attack these people. These were people who were going after him. They werent using nicknames but highly polished attack ads. I would teach my child to stand up for themselves.”
Exactly.
These whiners are like bullies that cry loudly when anyone stands up to them!
On what issues, specifically, was/is Romney more conservative than Trump?
‘Then don’t expect Cruz ... to support Trump.’
Oh, I don’t. Cruz gave his word that he would support the nominee. Having watched him lie with breathtaking skill and viciousness, I certainly have no expectation of Cruz honoring his word/promise.
One reason I’m going full GOPexit...right after I vote for Trump I’m outta the party and will only vote my conscience!
