NYT: Left wants to destroy Trump's movement, not just beat Trump
Breitbart ^ | 8/4/2016 | Joel Pollock

Democrats have a new goal: not just to defeat Republican nominee Donald Trump in the November election, but also to “destroy” the movement behind him.

The New York Times reports Thursday that Democrats, encouraged by Trump’s struggles to deal with the controversy surrounding Khizr Khan, hope to press their advantage to “squash Mr. Trump’s movement.”

The Times cites David Plouffe, an Obama adviser-turned-Silicon Valley lobbyist, urging Democrats to “destroy” Trump and “his kind.”

Recently, California’s Lieutenant Governor, Gavin Newsom, made similar remarks, saying that even if Trump won, his campaign marked “newsom beginning of the end for gop” for the Republican Party.

The Times elaborates with quotes from other Democrats, indicating the same ambition:

“The first order of business is winning,” said Geoff Garin, a strategist for Mrs. Clinton’s 2008 campaign who now advises Priorities USA Action, a pro-Clinton “super PAC.” “But the larger stakes of the election are putting the country on a path where Trump’s views of the world are far in our rearview mirror.”

Senator Barbara Boxer of California said that a Democratic win in November was far from guaranteed, but that she hoped for “a complete revulsion of the Trump wing” that would lead to a “realignment” of the Republican Party.

The Democrats’ goal is not particularly new. President Barack Obama said after the 2012 election that he hoped the “fever” of Republican opposition to his policies would break[…]

They just don’t want to end up like Politkovskaya.

Coincidentally, Putin no longer has a problem with enemedia.

That has been their plan from the beginning..and if Hillary Clinton wins, they will go door to door to every single voter who voted for Trump and kill them..think that is an insane theory, but I believe it..I believe that is where we are headed

The weapon the left have used for decades now is PC, and now Trump challenges this. Once PC is gone then their whole agenda is called out and people will hear the truth.

My understanding was he had an affair while married to Kimberly...unless the woman he had the affair with was something super extraordinary what was he thinking? Just saying...

Even more perplexing, the woman he had the affair with was the wife of his campaign manager.

flicked over to CNN after i have heard how bad their bias was. Holy crap was it bad. I see no way CNN can ever say they are a news organisation at all. Those who work their and do the reporting should be ashamed of themselves to call themselves reporters, hell they should be ashamed of themselves for even working at CNN. They are a disgrace and the lowest form of any profession.

Hey, David Ploufe.....Drop Dead!

Donald Trump’s movement is just starting to roll, and you and your worthless left-wing buddies, Davie, will be flattened under the wheels.

There were news stories during the primaries that some GOP #NeverTrumpers saw Trump as an opportunity to “bury the base” as it were. That cohort has a stronger incentive to beat Trump than the DEMs do.

I get the impression that Kimberly can be a real b@llbuster when she wants to be. Unless that’s an attitude she’s acquired because of ex-hubby.

It is not enough to simply beat Trump. He must be destroyed thoroughly. His kind must not rise again.

Armed and ready.

H3llary has said that Trump will use the IRS and the military against his enemies. She is projecting.

She will.

Trump has taken a beating this week (according to the media).

He will respond by adjusting to the battle as he sees fit.

That said, this is all new to him...so expect some fits and starts.

As has been said, Trump is a very fast study.

Hillary should cough up a lung and seek medical help...because she is in the cross hairs.

I am guessing that her cross hairs are intermingled with those of Huma.

Clean your mind with this image...

Exactly: The treatment Trump is receiving is a warning shot to any “outsider”: This is OUR house and we will destroy you if you try to upset our wicked little gravy train.

Bernie calls for more govt control, which they are just fine with. Any movement towards limited govt must be destroyed.
