The only thing Trumps attacks show is he can't unify the party behind him and how he doesn't care about the future of the party. There is such a thing as positive criticism, but Gingrich nailed it on the head. Trumps criticisms are destructive, not helpful.
Yes, Trump's strategy appears to be...nonexistent.

He's so negative and critical of people that he could use. Now the GOP is just twisting arms to try to get colleagues on board despite that line of crap they have been pushing regarding everyone 'falling in line.'

Trump doesn't like GOP female governors. His dissed Gov. Haley and now did the same to Gov. Martinez. Problem is Trump is a bully with a big mouth.

The money quotes at the end:


Bolling asked if veteran Republican operative Paul Manafort, who is a major figure in Trump's campaign, can be the person to help achieve that.

"No, it has to be inside Trump," Gingrich said. "Trump's not controllable. Trump has to have self-discipline because he's the biggest guy in the room. Nobody else can discipline Trump."

Trump just doesn't like or respect women period. It's not just the GOP female governors. It's women in general.

Maybe you have to be a woman to hear it, but I hear it loud and clear.

Excellent, maybe we'd live if we just hide under a desk.

Gawd! Someone needs to stop Trump from talking. This is from the article you linked to:

"Politicians have used you and stolen your votes. They have given you nothing," Trump said. "I will give you everything. I will give you what you've been looking for for 50 years. I'm the only one."



Trump thinks he's a god!

Sometimes I wonder if some of the Trump supporters are the ones keeping the Nigerian email scam alive. How do you fall for that kind of statement? He's gonna give us what JOHN F. KENNEDY and RONALD REAGAN could not? Holy moly.

It's not only that -- he's the only one who can give us whatever it is. That's incredibly narcissistic. He probably really thinks he can walk on water.

Trump will right all wrongs, heal all wounds, fill all pockets - and he'll do it all with a "hands off" approach to the White House. He's so gifted, almost magically so, that he'll do it all with speeches, tweets, rallies and television spectacles. Let the veep do the rest. Oh Trump's going to be great alright, you better believe.
