The Rothschilds control all Western banking, and are worth an unestimable

the planet Earth. Want a bottle of Satan Wine ?

Preibus is going so it isn't that 'elite.' A bunch of republicans who do not support the Trump faction or platform want to talk about the party and different scenarios. I don't see the conspiracy here.

It's no secret there is a rather large crack in the GOP--it's been splitting apart for years. They've had that whole thing going where anyone who won the primaries couldn't win the general for a couple of elections now. Time to regroup--they should have done this years ago. It could happen with the Dem party as well, but the divisions in the party are not that wide and the extreme wing of the party is not as angry as the extreme right.

I think he's picking what he planted, something we all do no matter whether we're rich or poor.

Too bad he didn't have the determination to run as an (I) and avoid these fine Republicans.

Occupy leftists are not angry ?
Minds are awakening on both sides of the spectrum.

Trump and Bernie are hopefully just the beginning of a new movement
focused on capable, independent leadership that transcends defintions.

This race is about breaking the glass ceiling, but the real one, the one
that matters most, not the sexist one Hillary cares so much about.
In Hillary's world, it's about illusion and shallowness.

We'll have a female President someday. No rush.

I agree.

I'm no fan of the Republican agenda - at ALL. But I do see their party as being between a rock and a hard place at the moment.

They KNOW that Trump won the primary - people came out and actually voted for him. So . . they have to respect that.

BUT - his antics and racism could certainly prove to to be lighting a dangerous match and throwing it on a smoldering fire.

What are they to do? Promote someone that they clearly believe is UNFIT for the office? OR - go against the will of their voters?

They have no good answer. If I were them ~ I'd keep my mouth shut (make a secret pact to vote for Hillary) and try again in four years.

Ah, remind me again, which of the candidates got more votes than Trump.

The GOP elite, the "dynasty", but not Trump. The GOP threw the race the last two elections, a 3rd loss and they would have been done anyway. Change with the times or die.

If Graham knew how to stop Trump in the first place, he wouldn't be sitting on the sidelines. Someone with some power needs to crack their heads together and tell them that everyone needs to unite behind Trump to defeat the enemy Hillary. If they knock her out in this election, she won't be around in 4 years to try again and then we can start again if Trump isn't moving us in the right direction. The GOP will have 4 years to get the kink out their tail so that they can move forward into the this century.

No kidding - ghouls plotting unspeakable conspiracies? I had no idea it had gone that far. Things are much worse than I'd realized.
