GOP establishment 'to unleash on Trump after Labor Day'
WND ^ | Joe Kovacs

The Republican establishment is reportedly about to launch a massive blitz of commercials after Labor Day to take down front-runner Donald Trump in his quest for the 2016 GOP presidential nomination.

“The hottest conversation that’s going on right now in the donor community among the anti-Trump donors, is how do you take down Donald Trump, and what’s the vehicle to do it,” CNN’s Maeve Reston told her network colleague John King on Sunday.

But party officials are said to be too timid to attack Trump directly.

“There are a lot of donors out there who see it as much too dangerous, obviously, for the candidates, or their allied super PACs, to go after Trump,” Reston said. “So they’re looking to more establishment PACs to potentially take him down in post-Labor Day ads.”

Radio talk-show host Rush Limbaugh saw the report, and agrees with the premise “the Republican establishment is preparing to unleash on Trump after Labor Day.”

“Now they aren’t going to do it with their fingerprints on it,” Limbaugh explained. “They are looking for PACs that have no ties to current Republican candidates. They don’t want any fingerprints of the party directly on whatever this smear of Trump is going to be.”

B.S. Nice to see the media will print anything Trump’s aides tell them.

Do they not realize that THEY ARE THE REASON FOR TRUMP'S SUCCESSES SO FAR? Any attack by them merely cement the idea in peoples' minds that Trump is the good guy...................

Too bad the GOP won’t pledge to support their nominee.

IF they do, then Trump needs to start the SECOND political party in this country, since the Pubs and Dems are working together to DESTROY AMERICA...he needs to call it .....”The COMMON SENSE PARTY”! WHO doesn’t want to have common sense?

The GOP has ignored its base, passed everything Obama has wanted, allowed executive orders and the supreme court to rule the land and our culture....and Republicans finally have someone speaking up for its base and they want to attack him?

So I guess Trump paid off Rush too.

Mr. Trump’s people will find out the PAC or candidate behind it and unleash some of his own brand of payback! He will have the support of millions upon millions of constituents!

No offense Nick, but how do you know this is B.S.? You’ve been wrong so often before.

A Trump/Sanders race would prove most interesting.

Both are gaining in the polls.

The capitalist versus the socialist.

They're "unappeasable".

So totally not team players.

Let’s just say that somehow Trump gets the nomination and they don’t back him.
Can he go it alone? I’m just thinking out loud here.
