GOP ELITES PLOT TO PURGE TRUMP
WND ^

Posted on 08/13/2015 4:36:10 PM PDT by xzins

In the Cleveland debate, Donald Trump refused to commit to support whomever the Republican Party nominates in 2016.

Trump would be wise to maintain his freedom of action.

For there is a plot afoot in the Washington Post Conservative Club to purge Trump from the Republican Party before the primaries begin.

“A political party has a right to … secure its borders,” asserts the Post’s George Will, “a duty to exclude interlopers.” Will wants The Donald “excommunicated” and locked out of all GOP debates until he kneels and takes a loyalty oath to the nominee.

“Marginalizing Trump” carries no risk of “alienating a substantial Republican cohort,” Will assures us, for these “Trumpites” are neither Republicans nor conservatives. Better off without such trash.

The Post’s Michael Gerson says “establishment Republicans” must “make clear that [Trump] has moved beyond the boundaries of serious and civil discourse.” He loathes the Trumpites as much as Will.

Trump’s followers are “xenophobic,” Gerson tells CNN. They have a “resentment of outsiders, of Mexico, of China, and immigrants. That’s more like a European right-wing party, a UKIP or a National Front in France. Republicans can’t incorporate that.”

But if the GOP has no room for Trump’s followers, it has no future. For there simply aren’t that many chamber-of-commerce and country-club Republicans.

Trump should tell the GOP, in the neocons’ favorite phrase, “All options are on the table.” And that includes the Samson Option.

Trump should tell the GOP that if it disrespects him and his followers, then he is prepared to do as did the biblical hero Samson, when, blinded and mocked by the Philistines, he pushed the pillars apart and brought the temple down upon the heads of them all.

Better than Republican elite. We like snakes that look like snakes, talk like snakes and act like snakes. At least you know what you’re dealing with.

I agree with the other poster above who compared it to the nazis.

Two guys writing articles for the newspapers doesn't sound like much of a secret plot.

If you want to get around or get rid of the elite is it really any surprise that they want to get out of nominating Trump?

Good grief, the primal screams and venomous pus that spews from the putrid GOP establishment is a sight to behold.

Watching their pain makes a tingle go up my legs.

The more they scream, the more they lose.

This is very enjoyable I must say!

Yeah. There’s no telling what Donald would uncover. They don’t want to go to jail.

They don’t want to go to jail.

Or experience more severe punishment when they're found out.

Do those borders not also apply to RINOs? Say you’re a Republican, and vote with the democrats, means YOU are purged from the party.

Works both ways, faggot, er, I mean George Will.

The more they complain and squirm, the more I wonder why.

And sadly, as my old German Grandmother used to say, "too soon old, and to late smart".

Welp, I did my duty, Dole, Bush, McCain. 2014 and the few short months afterwards was a bucket of ice water.

As Roberto Duran said, "No Mas".

"A political party has a right to … secure its borders"... say Open-Borders & Amnesty champion George Will.

CRUZ or lose, Trump would only be a consolation nominee to me.
Will and Gerson can both GET BENT as far as I am concerned, them and all their NEOCON/COC buddies have done nothing but screw conservative in this country since Bush #1.
They want their new world order; they are going to have to fight me down here in the mud to get it.

This is a Pat Buchanon column. Trump should hire him for speech writing, he wrote for Reagan.

Diamond Donald Trump can ignorte Geo. Will the most conservative thing about will is he likes baseball.
Off with his bow tie. DIAMOND DON Trump can ignore Kraut, who worked for Mondale. Diamond Donald can ignore Brit Hume, ABC news like Will doesn’t not a conservative make.

They all want Diamond Donald Trump to go. He isn’t the Chamber of Whores’ choice.

Diamond Donald Trump IS THE REAL CLUB FOR GROWTH.

THE PARTY THAT PICKED NO NEW TAXES BUSH, BIG SPENDER GW BUSH, MCCAIN AND ROMNEY WANTS TO TELL US PEOPLE IN THE CONSERVATIVE WING THE DIAMOND DONALD ISN’T CONSERVATIVE.

LIKE THEY EVER GAVE US A CONSERVATIVE.

WELL AT LEAST DIAMOND DONALD CAN DDT ANYONE WHO TRASH TALKES HIM. MCCAIN AND ROMNEY DIDN’T STAND UP TO OBAMA

There are two basic problems with Trump. He is “really really rich,” and he’s “really really smart.”

Rinse Prius has problems.

Actually, if Trump actually wins states and that state’s electors, then he throws the election to the House of Representatives. Not only is the House currently in the hands of the Republicans, but since each state receives only one vote, and since more states have a republican majority in the House, the election, in all likelihood, will be throw to the REPUBLICAN candidate.

So, it’s not awful for Trump to run third party and Cruz to be the Republican choice. That way, one or the other will be the president, probably the republican candidate.

***12th Amendment: The Electors shall meet in their respective states, and vote by ballot for President and Vice-President, one of whom, at least, shall not be an inhabitant of the same state with themselves; they shall name in their ballots the person voted for as President, and in distinct ballots the person voted for as Vice-President, and they shall make distinct lists of all persons voted for as President, and of all persons voted for as Vice-President, and of the number of votes for each, which lists they shall sign and certify, and transmit sealed to the seat of the government of the United States, directed to the President of the Senate; — The President of the Senate shall, in the presence of the Senate and House of Representatives, open all the certificates and the votes shall then be counted; — The person having the greatest number of votes for President, shall be the President, if such number be a majority of the whole number of Electors appointed; and if no person have such majority, then from the persons having the highest numbers not exceeding three on the list of those voted for as President, the House of Representatives shall choose immediately, by ballot, the President. But in choosing the President, the votes shall be taken by states, the representation from each state having one vote; a quorum for this purpose shall consist of a member or members from two-thirds of the states, and a majority of all the states shall be necessary to a choice.***

“If they push Trump out while he’s leading with the grassroots, it may very well be the spark that finally ignites the implosion of the thoroughly corrupt GOP.”

Go, Tea Party!!”

So be it!!!!
