1. All bark, no bite and no fight GOP doesnt know how to fight anymore, whether shutting down the federal government for longer or taking on Trump
2. The others are losers and wimps the rest of the 2016 GOP field has been, well, pathetic
.
3. Trump is a white trash billionaire Rubio and Cruz need to say so
Trump is an entitled mess whose business record is so questionable that he managed to bankrupt a casino
4. Go birther on the birther the Donald must die to save the GOP, and those attacks can start with one of his ployssaying he isnt eligible to be president
5. Get through to the morons. The Federalist, Bill James, cites all the rational reasons why Trump is unqualified to be president, but then notes his partys base is filled with morons supporting him
6. Arm the loosest of loose cannons? the Republican National Committee are failing to do everything in their power to prevent a bullying demagogue from becoming their standard-bearer.
7. Call on principled leaders to end mob rule? If Mr. Trump is to be stopped, now is the time for leaders of conscience to say they will not and cannot support him and to do what they can to stop him

(29,503 posts)Aristocracy is not what we have EVER been about, and in fact, a BIG part of the appeal of America to the rest of the world has always been that you can be anyone and get rich here - white trash, aristocrat, Martian - it does NOT. MATTER. Look at ANY of the big fortunes made in America, and the people behind them came from VERY humble beginnings.
So #3 would NOT be a Trump 'weak spot'. (In fact, he inherited millions, so in some respects, he was gentry from birth, but anyway...)
