Precisely. It is the arrogance of these people that is most offensive. The idea that they can just dismiss the leading contender somehow should give us an idea as to their hubris.

I can recall prior to the debates, that GOP donors were pressing to have Trump excluded from the debates. Trump is right about keeping his leverage. He is fighting against the GOPe, which does not want to see him be the candidate and they don't seem bashful about expressing it publicly.

....”Trump is right about keeping his leverage. He is fighting against the GOPe”....

Yes....and because has that leverage they do not know what to do about Trump but to ride him down via media in view of the audience...which thus far has worked to Trumps advantage.
However this is not sustainable throughout the election cycle....the public gets bored pretty quick and why I think Trump ditched his top man....game change coming for sure.
