To: detective
Had they done that two weeks ago, MAYBE it might have done something, but they are WAY too late. This nomination is over tomorrow.
Trump 2016.
To: detective
I hate this crap. The main thing is that everyone coalesce around the nominee when the time comes.

Yep, the Americans for Prosperity organization has insinuated itself into the GOP and the Tea Party. Lots of money to push their agenda. They want to keep the free flow of exploitable labor going to keep wages low and profits high. The American worker be damned.

Taking down Trump is a stupid strategy, but the insiders keep trying it. If they want someone else to win, the correct strategy is to fund, support, and encourage a different candidate but not target “the outsider” when a major part of his appeal is being the outsider.

They should just give their large amounts of money to Jebra.
It will have the same effect.

>> Taking down Trump is a stupid strategy
With all due respect, ruthlessly taking down his competitors by whatever means is necessary has been a part of Trump’s strategy since day 1.
It’s not necessarily a stupid strategy; it can be effective.

This is hit piece is written by a liberal elite.
An elite who probably hates Trump and Charles and David Koch equally... let’s ‘consider the source’ ...

Nothing wrong with this, political expression. As long as the GOP itself stays out of it.

How about and ANTI-DEMOCRAT campaign by ALL Republicans!
The Koch Brothers apparently learned nothing from losing the Right to Work fight in their own back yard.

It's not necessarily a stupid strategy; it can be effective. The difference is that when the establishment tries to take out Trump, it reinforces his message. Negative will not work against Trump, and that has been proven repeatedly. They would be better off treating him like an obscure footnote and talking about why their candidate is the best.

They have been funding all types of activities to take Trump out, from owning FAUX, ABCCNNBCBS and trolls on the internet to weaken Trump support with their constant anti Trump BS!

This is all about “black hand” control of your life. We don’t want it any more. It has ruined this great nation by dissolving our borders, taking our jobs,ruining our industry and manufacturing, killing and wounding our soldiers in unnecessary foreign entanglements and running up a $20 trillion debt. The Kochs can go to hell.
