Well no duh, GOP Establishment, but then again, that is why this is a government of, by and FOR the People of the United States and why we are going to put your cocaine snorting asses in prison for a long damn time.
WATCH: GOP Establishment Elites Discuss How to Stop Trump -- 'All He Has Going for Him Is a Lot of Votes'
MARK McKINNON [GOP Strategist and Executive Producer of The Circus]: And how problematic is that for the future of the party?
HOHLT: I think before itās all over, itās gonna be hugely problematic.
VIN WEBER [Former Congressman]: I talk to people all of the time, as Iām sure everybody around the table does, and they say, āWhy donāt you Republicans do something about this guy?ā Iām sorry. This is not the Soviet Union. We canāt call a meeting and decide Trump is out.
RON KAUFMAN [White House Advisor Bush 41]: And we hate that.
[Laughter]
KAUFMAN: Deny dictatorship ā Whoās for it? Trump is doing well for one reason. He understands the climate and the culture of America today better than anybody at this table.
MARK HALPERIN [Political Journalist and Executive Producer of The Circus]: How do you feel about the fact that the Republican nominee may be someone that none of you know?
ED ROGERS [White House Advisor Reagan, Bush 41]: Shell-shocked. Bewildered. Republicans are hierarchical, respectful of authority, and we fall in line, and Trump has interrupted that cycle.
WEBER: Donald Trump, nobody thought of him as any kind of political leader until six months ago.
ROGERS: Heās not articulate. Heās not poised. Heās not informed. All he has going for him is a lot of votes. Why hasnāt any of that hit home? Here we are. Here we are.
