The way to defeat Trump is to gang up on him
That's probably when we find out who really owns them. When the mask's come off.

The first Republican debate takes place Aug. 6. The candidates are busy conducting mock debates, rehearsing ways to get their messages across, and studying their opponents for signs of weaknesses, preparing little zingers that will enable them to score points and distinguish them from the herd.
Silly candidates: They should be studying tapes of The Apprentice.
If they don’t, they may end up steamrolled by the chairman of Trump Organization. No one is going to be “fired” by Donald Trump on Aug. 6, but many will be singed — they will feel the flames of his forest-fire fury. “Do not try to match him in anger and aggressiveness,” former House Speaker Newt Gingrich advised the GOP candidates in an interview with the Associated Press. “It’s not possible.”

of course they are... because Trump wants Universal Healthcare!
the Donald will get flustered and either stomp off in the middle of the debate in a huff, or will refuse to ever debate again.
I was wondering about that. Some of them are really going to get thwacked. Bush, Rubio, Graham, Kasich, maybe a couple of others. They have to play on The Donald’s turf, and it wont be pretty. For different reasons, Cruz, Fiorina, Carson, and Maybe Walker may fare better knowing what they are dealing with. Jindal, Paul, and Hucka we are unknowns in this Environment.
I forgot to Perry in the “ Will get thwacked “ group
And thereby solidify the image in the collective mind of America that Donald Trump is the underdog fighting for them against a collective of government-media-money complex aristocrats.
And be aware, there's a very, very big advertisement campaign coming up.
That's where most of the blood will be spilled.
Contrary to what you heard here, Trump does not want Obamacare. He wants a market based free enterprise system.

Don’t you think that if this Trump movement continues to grow and he’s the Nominee he’ll have COATTAILS?
I personally think when he’s the Nominee and the polls show a building-R-tsunami, and Trump is being heralded by previously very unlikely Republican voters, those running for “R”seats will hang onto his coattails for dear life.
“politicians that have decades of experience in the inner workings of government”
That won’t work because that group has the lowest approval ratings of any group. All Trump would have to do is say “look at all these professional politicians...they are all talk and no action. They funded Obamacare, they funded all Obama’s executive actions!”.
I don’t think he will. I watched his Iowa speech today. He’s getting to be an old hand at stump speeches. He’s much less high-strung, and much more relaxed than he was in Phoenix two weeks ago.
All depends on how long Trump wants to stay in the race for republican nomination. If the others gang up on him, expect 3rd party run. I am sure the first debate will give us lot of clues about the future of this race.
But of course, you are correct, if Trump keeps his poll dominance through half a dozen primary elections, his coat tails will get real crowded.
You suggesting a foodfight? What kind of whacko idea is that? If the other debaters go bat guano and gang up on Trump, he wins.
Besides....no matter how much you wish something like that could happen in order to have your obvious Trump hatred massaged; the debates will have rules, and there will not be a foodfight.

If the candidates gang up on TRUMP or if he is dissed by the moderator, his lead will go through the roof. Americans are fed up with the status quo.
This ain't a street fight. Furthermore, there are 10 participants in a 90 minute Q&A.. There won't be time for debating.
Are you nuts? Trump is afraid of no one and will carry the argument with brass knuckles to his opponents. He didn't get to where he is today by being a pansy.
I hope Trump is ready for this: I bet Perry and maybe even others are going to try and hand him something related to vets who were captured in an attempt to shame him. Maybe a photo or whatever Lazio style.
Folks, Reagan Democrats, who have not voted for 20 years...can’t wait to vote for Trump...,especially the dead ones!
Trump would gain 10 points right then if he was to say that.
If Trump is really smart, he should read my posts lol
But thanks for your nice reply.
