Even this powerful statement would have drifted quickly into the rear-view mirror but for Donald Trump's grotesque and undisciplined reaction to it, which continued for days on end. Now his poll numbers are cratering, and GOP leaders are at a new level of panic.
The Post found panickers all over—from party chairman Reince Priebus, who is said to be "very frustrated," to Newt Gingrich, quoted as saying that "right now" Trump is not an "acceptable" candidate; from Rudy Giuliani in New York, trying to arrange an "intervention" with the candidate, to RNC member Henry Barbour in Mississippi, also "frustrated." Other strategists, named and unnamed, make an appearance in the article. The panic room is a popular place for GOP big shots to huddle in these days.

Bill who? National what?
Crude and uncalled for. There are ladies present.
The Ruling Class’ chickensssah, are coming homeaaaah, to roost.
