Frustration abundant, GOP could be near breaking point Trump
Donald Trump hasn’t quite asked the dead to vote for him, but he’s almost there.
Donald Trump’s claim Friday that he was merely being “sarcastic” in accusing President Barack Obama of establishing a terrorist group was his latest attempt to blame others for the uproar over what he says. By Thursday, he was so off-message that he was repeatedly alluding to the possibility that he will lose the election.
But, particularly over the past two months, Trump’s campaign seems less like a haphazard effort, and more like a deliberate and conscious attempt to resurrect these discarded GOP tactics, recasting them for the current moment. Mitch McConnell, said this past week that maintaining his party’s control over the chamber is looking “dicey”.
Yet in other traditionally GOP-leaning states, like Arizona and Georgia, Republicans are concerned Trump’s unpopularity could give Democrats an improbable victory. If Republicans truly believe that Trump is a threat, then active opposition is required.
Republican National Committee Chairman Reince Priebus is introducing Donald Trump at a campaign rally in the key battleground state of Pennsylvania.
RNC Chair Reince Priebus must make the choice as to whether or not the RNC will cut funding to Donald Trump’s campaign.
Still Republicans are increasingly fearful of Trump’s impact on down-ballot races, but especially those Senate races.
“She has proven herself to be an outstanding, eloquent spokeswoman for conservative principles and the Republican Party, as someone who had been on the front line implementing those principles in the real world and in the private sector”, Keith Appell, former senior adviser to the “CARLY for America” Super PAC, told FoxNews.com. The officials weren’t authorized to comment publicly and requested anonymity.
Yet Donald Trump’s campaign spokesman insists they believe he has a chance to turn CT red for the first time since 1988, and that’s why he is holding weekend rally there on Saturday. “They finally realize they need the RNC for their campaign because, let’s face it, there is nocampaign”. But even if there is an “emergency meeting” taking place on Friday, Trump doesn’t care.
Trump went on a Twitter rant against the press, complaining that the “disgusting” media is not showing the crowd size of his rallies and is putting “false meaning into the words I say”. “But more importantly, they’re going to have a president who tells them exactly what’s on his mind and the American people are going to hear him and hear him loud and clear”. In a CNBC interview on Thursday morning, Trump said three times that he has no intention of changing his strategy, even if it means losing in November.
Nixon said that only with a restored base in a in a rehabilitated party could any Republican candidate have a chance to recapture the White House in 1968. “And at the end, it’s either going to work or I’m going to have a very, very nice longvacation”. “Look at the choice we’ve got”.
Operatives close to the RNC leadership who have heard this argument from party leadership, say the committee might have to make a decision about pulling the plug on Trump before that.
“The point is, most people did not take it that way”, Manafort said today. Trump is likely to attract new voters to the polls as well, voters who are angry and unlikely to vote for Gray. “Religion didn’t get out andvote”.
Senator Jeff Flake. The Arizona lawmaker on August 9 said there was “slim hope” he could vote for Trump, and added Trump could not win the presidency unless he changes. “Maybe there is. I don’t know”. “So I better do a goodjob”.
