This article slams D.J.Trump. It compares him to “an egomaniac”, a “wrecking ball”, etc.

The uniparty is scared, and treating Trump worse than they ever treated Sarah Palin.

the GOP has a big dilemma. Will it continue to cede center stage to an egomaniacal blowhard

These folks just don't get it. People are fed up with the GOP and with Washington and the media.

The GOP doesn't cede center stage to Trump. He is center stage because the voters put him there.

It won't matter because Trump won't quit.

The revolution has begun.

I have no doubt that Trump will run third party if he decides that the GOPe is mistreating him. Let Trump proceed, he will either lose his support or be the republican nominee and I’d have no problem voting for him against any democrat nominee.

There is no proof Rance Priebus is against Trump, except what Trump’s people say. Priebus is loving this Trump took the Tea Party out and deranged conservatives months early. This is going to be the best primary ever for Priebus. it’s RINOtown.

They put him there because he's what the people want.

They could spend all their time covering the rest of the crowd and they'd get NO viewers.

I, too, know that Trump won’t quit. But the Cartel is all about maintaining power, and do not care who they kill.

They assassinated Kennedy because he was going after the Federal Reserve.

Will it continue to cede center stage to an egomaniacal blowhard who deflects serious questions with hollow rhetoric and attacks his critics with insults and hyperbole, or will it have the temerity to end this embarrassing sideshow at the risk of alienating Trump's sizable support base?

They sure have had it up to their bow ties with Trump. Time to take off the (white) gloves.

The most brilliant insight of all is coming--- to all who are willing to look.

Biden is going to run, it's on Drudge this morning.

The insight is how ridiculously pro-left, pro-Democrat the media will prove themselves to support Biden's candidacy over Trump's.

On one hand is Trump... a bit of a self-promoter, and certainly not a professional politician, but a man of unquestionable accomplishment.

His demeanor and speech is direct and masculine. I laugh when people call him a clown or a buffoon because the number of clowns or buffoons who have earned 10 billion dollars is exceedingly small.

On the other hand we have Biden, a worthless, partisan hack, a true buffoon, who has acquired his wealth as does any professional politician, by graft, lies, corruption, crony capitalism, etc.

His speech is creepy, inappropriate, insulting, weird, disingenuous, unseemly.

His demeanor is reprehensible: gross ear nibbling and whispering at official events while the cameras run, often perpetrated on minors or married women. In other words, a real clown. A constant, embarrassing cringefest whenever he appears on camera. He creeps out even partisan Dems.

It will be very interesting to see the press turn into pretzels to simultaneously praise Biden and bash Trump in their respective campaigns. Sure hope they don't let me down.

Heads up!

Trump has already asked Carl Icahn to be Secretary of Treasury, and Icahn has accepted.

How can trump run third party? By the time the nomination comes around, he will either not be running or he’ll have clearly have been so far ahead of all the GOPe runners for the past YEAR the GOPe will by that time obviously be the third party they’ll kick him out to their own demise.

They’ll be the third party

Not that trump is good or bad

But if FOX can’t knock him out, who will?

As much as I'd hate to see Trump run third party, I'm glad he didn't take the bait and cave in the other week at the debate by taking the pledge. They can call him boorish and uncouth all they want.

Running third party is Trump's "nuclear option" should he be treated unfairly by the Republicans or otherwise engineered out of the race.

If Trump goes on to lose fair and square in the primaries, I would vote for the eventual GOP nominee, unless it happens to be Bush. However, if Trump is somehow forced out and he makes a third party run, I'm going with him.
