What is With the Anti-Trump GOP Establishment?

[jwoodie]

So what if he doesn't fit their preconceived mold? Is there any hard evidence that he would "destroy" the Party and give Congress and the Presidency to the Democrats? Hasn't he gotten many more votes than any of the other candidates?

Why don't they acknowledge the fact that he is the front-runner and talk to him about who should be VP and in his cabinet if he is nominated and elected? Instead, it appears that the GOP "establishment" is more willing to destroy the Party than is Trump. What do they think his supporters will do if they feel he is unfairly denied the nomination?

Or do they care?

"What is With the Anti-Trump GOP Establishment?"

They'd rather not lose the GE this year – which will happen if Trump is the nominee.

Would anyone with a three digit IQ like to comment?

Would anyone with a three digit IQ like to comment?

1. THey are very against his stated polices.

2. They dislike his style.

3. He is an outsider, and they like being insiders.

4. THey still think what they need to do is to pander to hispanics in order to win.

They just don't want to lose the election, and they know Trump is a douchebag.

Dear jwoodie
There is sincere concern among both liberals and conservatives
that someone as unpredictable as Trump could be a huge liability
not only to the American govt and domestic issues we already face,
but also to the foreign policies and relations with other govt leaders.

They are terrified that if Trump got in, they would lose their little cush. They are making tons of money doing what they are doing now...which is basically nothing. They do not want the pot stirred.

If you're the owner of a hardware store and you hire a clerk--lets call him John. John comes to work, wears a vest with your Store's name on it, a shirt with your Store's name on it and proceeds to tell all the folks who come through the door lies about how much better the store is now that he's working there, makes fun of the other clerks by personally attacking them, that he will make deals for them that result in their saving more than ever; even promising that the neighbors will pay for the backyard fence.

Deep down they know its too good to be true; anyone with 2 brain cells does. But after the purchases are made, none of the promised savings occur, the store is no better, and the fence remains unconstructed.

What will the townspeople think of the Store after the clerk is fired, goes back to selling steaks, worthless diplomas, and wanting to commit incest?

The Managers of the store have every right to treat someone who acts like garbage...well like garbage...despite what the customers think since it is all based on BS and lies.

Bad metaphor as the store is already immersed in bad deals with it's vendors.

Donald Trump has not fleshed out a single national problem or policy question with anything that would have been taken as anything but a joke in previous elections.

The man cannot complete a full sentence nor has ever yet answered a question put to him that would've been taken as other than b.s. coming out of any other candidate's mouth.

Not every, but most who have received his level of legitimacy and been taken seriously as he has have exceeded his performance by orders of magnitude.

His so called "victory press conferences" have been little more than going off in disconnected tangents that capture the audiences better than the usual repetitious talking points that they usually hear spouted.

I make every effort to catch all public comments by all the candidates including the dems and all the debates, town hall meetings and victory statements. Being retired I have the time.

The "store" is the envy of the entire planet, has been for over a century. That you still "shop" at the store is all the proof I need.

Trump is on Hannity right now; Watch and see if he answers a single question on point.

This episode will be repeated in three hours at 1:00 AM eastern - DVR it. See how he fails to answer or fails to respond to a single topic as if he knows what he's actually talking about.
