Just who else has been saying what the citizens want besides Trump?

You mean like Obama did?

Well you are entitled to live in a fantasy world where a multi Billionaire that’s a household name globally is somehow made irrelevant by lack of GOP involvement.

Or that the Senator that is given zero support and attacked daily by his own party will somehow vanish if they withdraw their polar opposite of support.

We will ignore totally the fact that moderates/indys/people that will never in a million years vote for anything with an R tag would have viable candidates for the first time ever.

Give the unicorn a carrot. They like that.

Trump uses the “Bull” Halsey strategy:

“Attack!” “Repeat, Attack!”

That strategy worked very well for every successful wartime American commanding general and admiral since 1776. It’s time we get back to it. For we are today involved in a war as perilous to the country’s survival as any in our history.

Go Trump!

It was an agreement. The GOP is in breach of contract if they now try to torpedo their leading candidate. God knows. And so do we the people.

Well, if Trump is the leader and the WINNER he says he is. Now is the time for him to show it. Don’t whine, just win.

From the WSJ article, "GOP Operative Plans 'Guerrilla Campaign' Against Donald Trump":

The most concerted effort is Trump Card LLC, the self-styled guerrilla campaign being launched by Liz Mair, the former online communications director of the Republican National Committee.

"In the absence of our efforts, Trump is exceedingly unlikely to implode or be forced out of the race," according to the Trump Card memo. "The stark reality is that unless something dramatic and unconventional is done, Trump will be the Republican nominee and Hillary Clinton will become president."

So in short, this is **not**, as Trump tweets, "GOP getting ready to treat me unfairly." This is reportedly one **former** GOP operative preparing to launch a campaign, funded by **some** donors. Contrary to Trump's tweet, this is **not** an official campaign by the Republican Party.

And the irony, of course, is that Trump is whining about being treated unfairly, while he goes about slamming his rivals, e.g., comparing Carson to a child molester. Karma, Donny.

We already knew the establishment would try to take out conservatives its what they do, Trump knew when he signed it, or least he should have known, that is not disputed. What is disputed is how to maintain a presidential dignity, integrity and character when faced with adversity and dirty doubling dealing of the establishment. This is not some land deal in Manhattan, this is the highest office of the land and tone and character matter.

If the GOPe dopes or Soros is paying 16 cents a word to say such things, you and they are certainly not getting their money's worth.

That was my point. This is not the party itself doing this. Trump can’t expect the Party to either support or defend him from primary attacks. If he leaves the party over this attack then he has broken his pledge. He only would be justified if the party itself was doing this.

The "deal," as I understand it, was that if Trump wins the nomination, the party would back him, and that if he does not win the nomination, he would back the nominee and not run third party. But neither of those "ifs" has happened yet. No one has won the nomination. Not one primary vote has been cast, not one delegate has been chosen.

Furthermore, according to the WSJ article Trump cites, this is not the party itself planning to launch a campaign against him.

Trump doesn’t need to go third party. And he doesn’t need the GOPe. But he does need to keep his legal beagles fighting against their dirty dealings. Above all, he needs to continue taking it straight to the people just as he is. The voters know what’s going on. When he has the nomination all but wrapped up (which the GOPe fears he already does), then he should go on the warpath against the corrupt GOPe cronyist big donors and formally ask the people to fund his general campaign via millions of small donations! Screw the corrupt and treasonous big money, big government GOPe!

Trump was right! Secure the nation before we lose it all!

Secure the Blessings of Liberty to ourselves and our Posterity!

You complain that Trump would say the following when someone defrauds him:

"It's not fair, you're being mean to me, if your not nice I'm taking my candidacy and going home and have my own primary where I can't lose. You big mean bullies."

Yeah, and if someone stiffs you on a negotiated contract, you'll just sit there politely and meekly while taking it up your butt.

Try to keep it real, dude.

I do not think Obama is running. Have I missed something? I trust Trump a whole lot more than the other candidates except Cruz. Trump/Cruz would be an ideal team.

The point is the GOPe is ganging up on him to drive him out.

Jeb, Rubio, and Kasich’s super pacs are joining together to gang up on him.

This is not one candidate trying to win.
