Remember the "September blitz"? There were rumors that after the summer break, the big money, Chamber of Commerce establishment Republican interests with their Super PACS were going to cut down Donald Trump with millions of dollars of negative ads. With the exception of one ad buy from the Club for Growth, it didn't happen.

Sounds like the GOPe house of corruption is being set on fire. I’ll do my best to cut the water mains.

Trump needs to find some down ticket candidates to run along with him. This would solve the problem of GOPe candidates loosing to DEMe candidates.

Those “big donors” know there’s a really good chance that Trump will win this thing, and they know he has a long memory.

Guess I’m uninformed.. I thought the Koch brothers were pretty conservative - I figured they would be Cruz supporters not GOPe...

I thought they were borderline libertarian. Interesting.

Koch brothers are mostly libertarian. The Cato Institute is one of their operations.

The Kochs have supported Cruz over the last few years. Beware of those making the inevitable minor policy disagreements into something they are not, but keep in mind that big donors hedge their bets and support multiple candidates.

Almost everyone in the party's upper echelons agrees something must be done, and almost no one is willing to do it.

And this is why I hate these people worse than Democrats. They won't put up a fight for a D@mned thing. They are pansy @$$ milquetoast wussies.

Even something they claim to believe in won't stir them to risking their own necks to do something about it.

This is why these layabouts need to be excised from the party Root and Branch. They are the "Do-Nothings" that Harry Truman once railed about.

And that he will HURT THEM BACK. We should have burned Mitch McConnell when he turned traitor on us, but because Kentucky re-elected him anyway, he feels emboldened to ignore whatever the base wants.

Someone who will HURT THEM BACK doesn't get ignored.

The reason they are sooo afraid is because they are so vulnerable.

Vulnerable to exposure of their abject corruption.

The thing that some people didn’t see what with that 9/11 thing that Trump brought out, he tied it with the muslims here that need to be watched and the Syrian refugee situation....all three were tied together and the only thing the media and talking heads took out of that was the story of 9/11...talk about pecking order!!!

He is so far ahead in this game, and there is talk going on now that the GOP is planning on a brokered convention...all hell will break loose if that happens!!!

Does anyone value Matt Borges opinion? He was lobbyist for a gay lesbian transgender organization (Equality Ohio) prior to becoming the head of the GOP in Ohio.

The Ohio GOP is absolutely worthless....as evidenced by who they chose to lead them.
