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.

“civil discourse?” You mean the whimpering simpering politically correct speech that says absolutely nothing—with a very lofty tone?
The Donald may not get elected, but I hope he never shuts up.
Trump now leading in Missouri and Alabama. George Will can kiss my grits. :=)
The behaviors of Boner and Ditch are reason enough to trash the GOPee temple.
Simpson. Shave his hair and down comes the walls.
Trump is Trump
Rove just on Greta. Just can’t bring himself to even suggest anything positive about the man. He did admit his relationship to FieRINO and tried to pull Dr Carson in too. They may have met but doubt its a relationship
There is enough anger if they do that and he goes 3rd party he just might win..

Even more reasons to stick to Trump!
Who the Hell wants to support a party that acts like a bunch of Nazi??
“A political party has a right to … secure its borders,” asserts the Post’s George Will”
George, with all due respect, which is very little, go pound sand.
I couldn’t care less what they think or want. If it burns down fine...but they brought the gasoline.

This is crazy.
If conservatives stopped listening to media personalities, conservatives wouldn’t be led like sheep to the slaughter every 2 years.
They want to lose.
They want to be able to loot the treasury for their rich friends but lose the Presidency so they can blame everything on the Democrat in the White House.
Even if they lose power in Congress, there’s still plenty of ways to line their pockets.
They want to lose.
Never give up bargaining leverage.
If this happens it will be the death of the GOP. And of life as we know it.
Bunch of idiots, creating a martyr.
If they want to get rid of Trump all they have to do is let him keep talking.
