“Every great cause begins as a movement, becomes a business, and eventually degenerates into a racket.” – Eric Hoffer
Despite a growing string of victories in the Republican primaries ,the DC-Wall Street cabal that has dominated the GOP since 1988 has no intention of letting the billionaire real estate mogul be nominated. None other than Karl Rove has insisted the stop-Trump effort is not too late and can succeed.
A new superPAC has dumped $10 million dollars into blistering negative TV ads against Trump in the last three days. The Koch brothers and their associates deny funding the effort but they denials are questionable at best. The New York Times reported Sunday that the Rubio and Kasich campaigns are now openly planning on a ‘brokered convention” to stop Trump in the back rooms in Cleveland. The New York Daily News reported that Barbara Bush has vowed revenge against Trump for ending the “low energy” campaign of her son Jeb, the anointed one and that the Bush clan is all-in in the effort to stop Trump. The News reported that Jeb may transfer the $25 to $30 million in SuperPAC funds he has left to an anti-Trump effort
The power-brokers short term game is clear; stall Trump just short of the magic number of delegates needed to be nominated on the first ballot with the knowledge that many delegates bound on the first ballot by Trump primary and caucus victories would be unbound on a second ballot. Much in the way the RNC stacked the galleries with anti-Trump partisans in the last two debates, anti-Trump quislings are be planted in various delegations that will be free to betray Trump on subsequent ballots.
If Cruz prevails in Texas and Kasich can hold Ohio the insiders game of “keep away “could get some legs.

Spent that money. More will vote for Trump. Washington doesn't get it.
ReplyDeleteWhat this should show any breathing soul, that's GOP & Dem alike, is that these parties [both of them] have become anti-American and worship the dollar.
ReplyDeleteWhen a candidate is backed so strongly by so, so many of their registered voting constituents and that party [GOP] still refuses to stand behind, support and promote that candidate it is profoundly obvious, even to the most casual observer, that party does not represent the people of America. What it does is say, "We represent 'big money' and we're in it for the self-enrichment, not to represent you serfs., get over it."
I'll vote Trump third party if need be.
ReplyDeleteThe parties don't worship the dollar.
ReplyDeleteThey instead, worship the people who PRINT the dollars (FED).
The FED always gets what it (they) want. They are international bankers and they have control over all western governments and economies.
Romney basically just boosted Trump. This will backfire on the Republican establishment as it should. People are fed up with this crap. We need to support Trump more tha ever now.
ReplyDeleteThey can try all they want, they are the ones that don't get it. People out here are sick and tired of the Washington antics, mainly being lied to all the time. When someone comes along, that is not backed by all the special interest groups, it just goes against their grain, and they cannot stand the fact that he can say it like it is, which ever way he wants to and there's nothing no one can say because he is using his own money. Keep on saying it and doing it Trump, you have our votes.
ReplyDeleteIf the Republican "establishment" does this, the people will vote in massive numbers for Trump as a third party candidate. If it is enough to elect him while fracturing the party - every Republican "establishment" candidate is well endangered of losing their seat as well...for violating the will of the people...if it is not enough to elect Trump, they'll never learn!
ReplyDeleteWhat took them so long to stand up against this criminal president?
ReplyDeleteWhy is The Club For Growth spending money to take down Trump?
ReplyDeleteThe mask is off. Establishment candidates in both parties couldn't care less about the unwashed masses.
ReplyDeleteLets throw the establishment out!
They are the ruling class and they will tell you want you want
