This is from the New York Times.

The premier leftist rag anywhere.

Even they are pulling back, realizing they just don't get what is going on.

Trump is only “ the main issue facing the GOP” if these idiots keep letting themselves be played

What a box of tools

I honestly don’t think veterans are going to be up in arms over Trump’s comments. I’m sure McCain has a small group of veteran fans, but the I doubt the majority of Vietnam vets will rally to his side.

Taken in context, Trump’s comments weren’t even how they’re being portrayed. Trump was energized over McCain calling us (conservative anti-amnesty folks) a bunch of crazies.

Whether McCain is a war hero or not is irrelevant to the decades of damage he’s done since the war.

Latest from GOPe is story from Wasington Examiner on Trump's "insufficient religion" and how that will hurt him with religious voters.

1) We have been lectured for years that "we need to stay away from the social issues". Romney's Mormonism, Obama's quasi-Islam didn't matter but Trump needs to be more religious?

2) ONLY Cruz and Trump have attacked common core (I don't know about Huck, because he is irrelevant)

GOPe leadership is completely out of touch with the base.

From the article: “but it remains to be seen whether the party’s base will share their perspective.”

With the huge Republican victories of the last election or so, and with the RINO’s essentially flipping off the voter once they got the majority, I just really don’t think they care at all about “the party’s base”.

For the GOPe to reject their own base in favor of illegals is a suicidal disease.

Trump is both the doctor and the cure for that disease!!

Americans have NO confidence it what the MSM says anymore. The whole anti-Trump thing is perceived for what it is... a crude, media-driven effort to splinter Republicans.

It demonstrates JUST how out-of-touch the MSM really IS... Because, ‘Republicans’, as such, have ceased to BE ‘unified’ for many years. More than ever, there is fundamental internal debate within the GOP.

The ‘splintering’ has already taken place, and continues unabated.

Meanwhile the MSM is handing Trump and GOP and Conservative candidates more press time they could usually expect!
I think the next national election will make or break the GOP as a political entity. Maybe then the MSM will get it.

Mature voters get the Conservative message but young people need some guidance. So. I like the idea that Trump is challenging the dated, moribund GOP positions.

Moreover, I think it’s time someone apprised the GOP that they are stylistically unappealing to voters… and certainly to younger voters.

They definitely don't get what's going on.

Trump is exposing a hell of a lot more than the Leftists and RINOs can possibly understand.

He's ripping the masks off them and exposing their lies and delusions for what they are--and they are panic stricken!

Nothing panics the delusional and the mendacious like TRUTH--and most of those pathetic fools haven't the slightest comprehension of the depth to which they are mired in the quicksand of lies and delusions.

When Trump--or anyone else--exposes them, they are shocked--and horrified--and panic stricken--and they retreat even further behind their bulwark of denial.

It's always the same when Truth threatens Delusion.

Don't expect the Left to acquiesce. The delusional will KILL if that's necessary to protect their delusions, and Leftists, of all people, are not encumbered by scruples.

Looks like Macy’s must have pulled their ads from the Times after 30,000 customers cut up their Macy’s card.
