Donald Trump is unable to engage the Republican establishment
Clearly, the Republican establishment is fed up with Donald Trump's presidential candidacy. Yet, it's rare to see those who are competing with Trump to take a stand to oppose "Trumponian" bravado. Now, the NationalJournal has picked up the offensive gauntlet to block Donald Trump's nomination.
Is This the End of Donald Trump?
Is This the End of Donald Trump?
So says the conservative NationalJournal
Senator Lindsey Graham said...."...As a party (GOP), we are better to risk losing without Donald Trump than trying to win with him.”
Although Donald Trump immediately discredits any critical person or media company, the reality of their message seems impossible for him to accept. Maybe Trump's social networking experts will read this message from Maine Writer:
"Dear Donald Trump: The Republican establishment does not support you!"
Perhaps, it's because many rich Republican political doners gave their cash to candidates who won't even rise to second in the line up of party candidates. Nevertheless, whatever the reason, "Trump the Chump" isn't falling victim to shunning by the GOP establishment.
Of course, "Trump the Chump's" political appeal is enhanced by his ability to rise above what's perceived as politics as usual. This outsider political appeal creates entertainment interest for the outspoken Trump's campaign, claiming he'll "make America great again!".
Unfortunately, in spite of the bold but unsubstantiated slogan about "greatness", Trump crossed the political line when he included stupidity and even cruelty to his campaign messaging. Trump lost it when he screamed at rally protesters in Burlington, Vermont and insisted that they were to be thrown into the cold, without their coats. Also, he behaved like "the stupid party" (thank you Governor Jindal, for the quote) when the incoherent former Alaska Governor Sarah Palin endorsed Trump's presidential campaign.
The conservative NationalJournal has now made it completely clear - Conservative Republicans Beware!

Some GOP rivals who are similarly campaigning as “outsiders”, fighting the party leadership, would love to pick up Trump’s backers — and anti-establishment, whenever Trump leaves the race. And Republican leaders looking forward to the 2016, general election worry that those who favor Trump may not vote at all 15 months from now or — worse still — vote instead, for a third-party Trump run.
This caution was evident...as neither former Arkansas Gov. Mike Huckabee nor Sen. Ted Cruz of Texas, both of whom fashion themselves as outsiders, would criticize Trump for his comments about Kelly.
Sen. Lindsey Graham of South Carolina and former Florida Gov. Jeb Bush, neither of whom is likely to pick up Trump supporters in a GOP primary, were quick to hammer Trump.
“I mean, do we want to win? Do we want to insult 53 percent of all voters? What Donald Trump said was wrong. That is not how we win elections,” Bush said during his RedState appearance. “Mr. Trump ought to apologize.”
And Graham said: “As a party, we are better to risk losing without Donald Trump than trying to win with him.”
As the cliche says, it doesn't take a rocket scientist to figure out that Donald Trump can't win a national election when the establishment Republicans won't support him. So, in the world of "arithmetic", the black voters won't support Trump, the Hispanic voters will run campaigns to oppose him.....women aren't particularly attraced to Trump, and the Sarah Palin endorsement won't help and now establishment Republicans have firmly said "no Trump, no way".
Consequently, Donald Trump might be a successful business mogul, but he's proving to be a completely unpopular Republican.
Dear Donal Trump- listen to Maine Writer and withdraw from the presidential race, because Republicans don't like you. Worse, the establishment apparantly won't vote for you. Obviously, the Trumponian ego will be closed to this pragmatic "arithmetic" argument. Stil; maybe Republicans need a disasterous election to finally purge their party from right wing extremism. Certainly, if it's really possible for a party cleansing, then Trump might be the right candidate for the job, afterall, in spite of shunning by the Republican establishment.
