The Republican Party plunged into an epic and historic political crisis Saturday with just a month to go until Election Day as a growing wave of GOP lawmakers called on defiant presidential nominee Donald Trump to drop out of the race in the wake of a video showing him make crude sexual remarks.
The fallout from the tape published by The Washington Post — in which Trump bragged in obscene language about forcing himself on women sexually — threatens to endanger the party’s hold on both houses of Congress in addition to the White House, which many Republicans now fear is lost. The episode also comes ahead of Sunday’s second presidential debate in St. Louis, which was already a crucial moment but could determine how widely the damage spreads.
By midafternoon Saturday, more than two dozen Republican lawmakers had called on Trump to leave the race, often touting vice presidential candidate Mike Pence as an alternative. Others including Sen. John McCain (R-Ariz.), the 2008 GOP nominee, said they could no longer vote for Trump but stopped short of calling on him to drop out. Still, the Republican Party’s top leadership — including House Speaker Paul D. Ryan (Wis.), Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell (Ky.) and party chairman Reince Priebus — continued to support Trump even as they denounced his comments.

Ha!
If Wikileaks showed us anything, its the absolute collusion and corruption between the corporate media and the DNC.
This WaPo article is exhibit 1A.
When Trump said “drain the swamp” you can be sure he meant the RINO party as well. Good to see the people take it back from these Democrap operative pukes.
Bingo. Best election ever for that reason alone.

Trump will crush these turncoats!
If they oppose Trump now, they will crushed and run out of DC
with pitchforks.
They published the tape too early.
Trump forced a lot of masks to come off during the campaign. Very soon he will do it again to Congress. He will offer real bill, real budgets, and republicans will have to vote for conservatism, or reveal that they were just chair warmers with no intention of shrinking government.
Race? He already win it. You can’t keep re-racing till you win snowflakes
They were referring to CNN talking heads like Ana Navarro and their Ilk who don’t represent the Republican Party.
ROFLMAO...wiki leaks folks, wiki leaks!!!
Oh yeah, the GOPe coup attempt.
What was so funny was that the plan required Trump to voluntarily step down.
What morons!
Here’s something else from the recent past:
Winner’s aren’t Losers

These calls for Trump to quit were funny as hell. Dude walked through 16 candidates, got the nomination, and was supposed to just up and quit. What’s even more pathetic are the GOP establishment pukes that were still trying to throw candidates at him after he had gotten the official nomination. We haven’t forgotten about that, ya skunks!
I was referring to Trump, as President.
Not Trump, as a candidate.
Freaking traitors!
I singled Ana Navarro out cause she was supposed to be a Republican but not once during the past 2 years, did I hear her talking like a Republican. She is a troll & should be marginalized.
In the midst of jubilation, I had forgotten the coup attempt.
I Love Winning!
No one gave a flying f what the Compost stated with their faux crisis. But it did have the effect of outing the traitors.
