Does the RNC have a secret anti-Trump war room?
CNN ^ | 8/20/15 | Chris Frates

Posted on 08/20/2015 7:27:15 PM PDT by markomalley

The Republican National Committee is running a secret war room to take out Donald Trump's presidential campaign.

Or so says Roger Stone, the former Trump political adviser, who still supports Trump.

Stone told CNN that he's absolutely convinced the Republican Party is trying to knock the celebrity billionaire out of the race because he's not the candidate of the establishment elite.

I’d say that stealing that US Senate seat from McDaniel was the end of the Republican Party. We didn’t realize it at the time.

Reagan came in, caught fire, and the GOPe nearly self-combusted. Here we go again.

Yes, indeed.

No. Absolutely not.

They have an anti-Trump war room, but it isn’t a secret, it’s out in the open.

They have to have something for the political experts to do all day and night while the campaign runs away from them

Yes and if they used racist tactics in Mississippi against one of their own party they disagree with you can bet they have a war room against Trump.

It’s a room. It’s the whole place.

I’ve come to a conclusion: Mitch McConnell, John Boehner, Karl Rove, George Will and every other RINO in Washington would not care if Trump ran as a Third Party. They’d rather lose the White House than lose their power. They are that deranged.

I will vote democrat to be sure my vote hurts them twice as much as my just staying home.

I'm not convinced that will hurt them (the GOPe).

I pretty sure they're happiest playing second fiddle.

Other than to destroy them, it's going to be pretty hard to hurt them.

Reality check: This is one guy’s opinion, period.

RNC may, or may not, have an organized anti-Trump program, but this guy would be last to know. and CNN would be the next-to-last network to know about it.

It’s another CNN reporter with no story reporting a one-man rumor. That’s all it is, and we here at FR are too smart to accept the word of MSM CNN as anything more than that, a one-man rumor.

Look, if Trump continues bulldozing the political landscape and keeps increasing his polls, I would not be surprised if he’s suddenly indicted for some very pale shade of gray business dealings he may or may not have entered into with a union or municipalities.

Nice tag line but I will call who ever I want a RINO. And no I am not a dem. Almost got into a fight with my recruiter in 1986 who was a dem supporter. Yes I am a republican and have been for a long time.

It may be just one guys opinion but past practice by the GOPe supports it.

I think there was a Lyndsay Graham quote where he said it would be better to lose to the Dems than have Trump? Or did I dream that?

Seems as they are as effective at knocking Trump down in the polls as they are at stopping Obama.

Actually, no, you are not a Republican. If your candidate loses the primary and you then sit home on election day, as you do since you admit you will never vote for a Republican, you are only helping the Dems.

Real conservatives work to change the political landscape 24/365. Crybaby’s only complain, but don’t vote, like you have admitted you do.

Busted.
