From the NY TIMES, “The rank and file are sticking with Trump.” They have had it with RINOs.
Trump says, “bringing it on.” The mainstream Republicans are pulling out all stops, including vicious, pernicious, and deleterious attacks on the front runner. This was expected, they could not hold their tongues much longer. Being defeated by an outsider was least expected. What was once called a comedy act by the wannabees, they now are on the receiving end of the joke.
Today there are five states at play. On the Republican side, Trump leads with 329 delegates, followed by 231 for Cruz, 110 for Rubio and 25 for Kasich. The GOP candidate needs 2,472 to win the nomination, with increasing talk, particularly within the GOP establishment, about having a so-called “broker convention” to stop Trump’s insurgent candidacy.
Republican good old boys have been blind sighted by Trumps surge. They have never faced an opponent who can dish it out with impunity. However, thus far when Rubio and Cruz attack Trump it slides off him like teflon. The media has attacked him on multiple occasions only to see it backfire. Currently the lame stream media is anti-Trump. We can only think of the number one reason why – the media did not understand the pent up anger among “we the people.” Now the media is trying to stop Trump’s runaway train. Sorry to say it is too late.
Click here on the Romney tirade.
Mitt Romney, a two time failure at the presidential sweepstakes and the self-appointed guardian of the Republican establishment, stood at a podium in Utah Thursday morning and accused Donald Trump – the same Donald Trump whose support he courted and touted in 2012 – of being “very, very not smart.”
“Dishonesty is Trump’s hallmark,” said Romney – apparently without a shred of self-reflection or embarrassment.
