(TWITTER) Insider Says GOP Coup Attempt Thwarted
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MMhsMjQQzqY ^

Posted on 10/11/2016 10:14:12 PM PDT by TigerClaws

@JackPosobiec SCOOP: The DC Beltway is livid at Trump today. House staffers are telling me they all actually thought Trump would drop out this weekend

RNC leaders were telling members that after the tape leaked that Trump would drop out so they all needed to unendorse him first

So now its chaos, members were told Trump was dropping and Pence was taking over so that's why so many publicly attacked Trump

But now Trump is staying in, and after his strong debate performance and solid support levels they are worried they just screwed themselves

The establishment plan was Pence would take the top of the ticket, lose, and then run Ryan-Rubio 2020. But Trump thwarted the coup attempt

So in the magic scenario, Pence was the guy who was going to take the hit. He has left his Governor's Mansion, won a challenging national debate (which Ryan or Rubio NEVER did), and was going to not be on the 2020 ticket.

Another selfless display of RNC gratitude. Too bad Cruz couldn't point out Wisconsin values...

I believe this. The phone lines on the Hill were blown out.

I called Ayotte’s office and the girl was flustered. They totally screwed the pooch. There are a lot more Trump supporters voting in each state that will vote only Trump, than vote only for the down ticket.

[the RNC coup leaders] are worried they just screwed themselves

Justifiably. Might as well back their bags right now.

I’m thinking of the parallel with Roman history where Sulla marched into Rome to overthrow the Marius supporters. Sulla then went about a rather thorough “housecleaning” with his enemies heads delivered on a plate; and that was not just a figure of speech.

No greater friend. No worse enemy.

Are you suggesting that Pence was part of this coup attempt? While I do not like Pence, I had figured he could at least be loyal and trusted to stand with Trump. Maybe not?

Ryan/Rubio in 2020? Oh, brother, I’d rather die before that.

If you don’t think Ryan wants to run in 2020, you missed how that sneaky little snake became Speaker, and has been screwing this election ever since. He is a cancer. I guarantee his corruption runs deeper than we know.

I remember when the polls showed Romney was behind and we all hoped it wasn’t accurate. It turned out almost exactly right.

Romney was not Trump. Clinton is not Obama.

Trump is a de facto independent candidate for President. The Wicked Witch is the candidate for the Uniparty (DNC + GOPe). Trump should win, but even if he doesn't he should continue the fight against the Uniparty. It is the Uniparty that is the enemy of the People. It must be destroyed if we are to maintain any of our freedom.

Here is the interview on this that I heard. I was just on the phone with my sister telling her about it:

How can he win when he is so far down and many of his own party leaders have abandoned him?


Party leaders? What party leaders? The likes of Ryan? McCain? You mean the globalists.

The way it all went down and was so well coordinated, I can buy that possibility.

They had all their dominoes lined up in a row along with the MSM's help and Trump kicked them back the opposite direction.

Amnesty Rubio, like Lyn’ Ted will NEVER be eligible as neither are natural born citizens. And that means we don’t have to delve into his corrupt history, drugs, and homosexuality.

I think Paul Ryan and the GOPe hate Trump and they(stupidly)went off half-cocked over “Mic-Gate.” Morons.

They sowed the wind - now they reap the whirlwind.

“IF THEY TRY TO TAKE OUT TRUMP...

THERE WILL BE NO GOP/RNC...

TRUMP SUPPORTERS WILL LEAVE IN THE MILLIONS AND YOU CAN COUNT ON IT...

THERE WILL BE A NEW PARTY FORMED...

AND IT WILL NOT BE A RYAN/RUBIO...EVER...”

Indeed. If Trump loses, I’ll never vote for another Republican as long as I live.

If Trump loses, the GOP is dead. Millions of us will never vote for anyone from the GOP ever again. There’s no point anyway: the ones we’ve elected already have done nothing but stab us in the back, so why bother installing another batch of back-stabbers just so they can feast on the taxpayer-purchased caviar, wild-caught shrimp, and wild-caught smoked salmon served at all of those D.C. parties.

I want him to win, but I don’t think he will. And what you say is exactly what I’ve been thinking.

A Trump Network against Fox and a new “America First” party works for me.
