ALTOONA, PA. — The Republican Party could be nearing a breaking point with Donald Trump.

As he skips from one gaffe to the next, GOP leaders in Washington and in the most competitive states have begun openly contemplating turning their backs on their party's presidential nominee to prevent what they fear will be wide-scale Republican losses on Election Day.

Gaffes? No. more like the truth even if it hurts GOPe and that’s what’s at stake here. They are all very afraid.

Who needs the GOPe

Bush is universally hated by Majority of the Country

Mc Cain loose cannon

Linda Graham is just a tag a long

Mitt Romney most hated person in the GOP with Paul Ryan

Who I doubt with President Trump will be be Speaker as the Freedom Caucasus will remove him with Trump

Sure, that is why the RNC Chairman personally spoke in support of Trump at two appearances yesterday in Erie and Altoona.

I’m not really inclined to disregard this noise.

Firstly, I haven’t seen Trump make any gaffes.

Secondly, the only one I see imploding is the worthless ass GOP.

I may well only vote for trump in November and no one else.

I have no use or need for this party of fools.

Compare to RNC Convention

http://www.freerepublic.com/focus/f-news/3459143/posts

The comments are interesting too. How masterful how the Dems portrayed 45% of their convention’s Bernie people as Hellary supporters, when it wasn’t the case.

Bernie’s people won’t vote for her, many will vote Green or Libertarian, and some will vote for Trump because he is anti TPP. Any votes of Bernie people Trump picks up in more than Romney ever got from the left.

What state are you in? TX also has a race for railroad commissioner, an office which regulates oil and natural gas.

Trump must have won the poll since they don’t want to show the verdict.

Why are so many people frightened? Did they look at Hellary’s face without makeup?

Earlier today here on FR, Kaslin said, “Hillary Can’t Win In November.” I’ve known it since June 2015. So let the GOPee do their worst; Trump IS the next POTUS!

In some ways, I wish the party would pull the plug and force Trump to go it alone, with “only” the millions who believe and trust him.

What a joy it would be to see him cream Hellary worse than Reagan creamed Carter. And to listen to the screams and moans as the Stupid Party goes slurping down the drain.
