Drudge Report editor and Washington Times columnist Charles Hurt took a look at the state of the Republican presidential primary on Thursday’s edition of Breitbart News Daily with SiriusXM host Stephen K. Bannon.
Hurt said the Republican Establishment loves talking about convention rules, floor fights, and the fine points of delegate behavior because “it allows them to avoid a far deeper and more important problem they have, and that is that they are completely out of touch with Republican voters.”
“They opened this huge avenue for Donald Trump, who isn’t like them, who’s an outsider, who is flamboyant, and is a force unlike anybody else,” he continued. “They allowed him to walk in, and the guy was one hundred percent in tune with voters on everything.”

“Having covered Ted Cruz, and what he has done in the Senate ever since he has been here, to see him now as the henchman and handmaiden of the Establishment to block Donald Trump?” Hurt marveled, scoffing at the suggestion that the Establishment is actually moving in Cruz’s direction on the issues or that they would allow him to win the White House and become the nominal leader of the Republican Party.
“It is not going to work,” Hurt declared. “All he is doing is, he’s doing their work to prevent Donald Trump from clinching the nomination.”

Captain Obvious has just landed : )
They sure are in overdrive with that meme. Think the voters are thinking about that or care?
Lol. People will believe whatever the pied pipers are telling them, no matter how ridiculous it is.
The truth is finally spoken.
Cruz will be blamed in the end for the establishment win.
Nothing to be proud of unless you are one of them.
And Trump serves as nothing but a way to allow the Rat candidate to win.
I think it is great that it was spoken out loud!
Lyin’ Ted is a maple-leafed Trojan Horse.
;)
I hear he is also the fourth horseman of the apocalypse. /SARC
If they'd picked Trump his amen corner would be claiming " Donald own3s the GOPe".
Hurt on the Special Report panel yesterday talking about some of this stuff. Krautahmmer pointed out that Trump did astounded well in WI considering the amount of attacks leveled against him. His percentage essentially unchanged indicating once again the millions spent against Trump did little to nothing.
You were misinformed... he is merely the one of many vessels of sowing seeds of deception. The 'fourth' feeds off the seed planting.
<< Think the voters are thinking about that or care? >>
LobbyLu, The voters have their frontrunner because they *do* care.
Cartel Cruz is now tightly pressed in the DC Cartel vice. Owned, indebted, and subjugated and everybody knows it.
He’s a globalist with a p!$$ poor personality, but the Cartel can use him and his flock of geese who may still support him long enough to restore the Establishment strangle hold on power that TRUMP has clearly shattered.
Cheer up. Maybe Cartel Cruz can take a village in some state next month.
yes they do here in FL. The establishment is hated right now here
I am fairly certain that the fourth horseman’s voice will not sound like Mr. Haney from Green Acres.
Bullcrap, Ted Cruz (with Donald Trump) has SUBJUGATED the establishment in the primaries. Now Cruz & Trump are locked in a struggle to determine who can move on to VANGUISH the ‘RATS in November.
If anyone believes the GOPe is pulling the strings, they are completely wrong.
