Who next on dipshit donnie's repub hit list?

I'm not speaking about his tweets here. But I'm speaking about the use of his advisors bannon's and alex jone's web sites being used as an arm of dipshit's campaign against the repub's. I know he will continue to use them against Hillary, so that is not the question.

So far paul ryan has been hit on those sites. Dipshit has already signaled by tweets John McCain might be next.

I have a feeling the next up after them will be repub rep. chaffetz. Since he was one of the first to remove his endorsement after the tape release.

There was a really good list put together on this site of repubs who made statements, never endorsed, or rescinded their endorsements. Just can't find it now. So as a starting point here is a smaller list of repubs on washington times site.

Think about it. Dipshit tweets against paul ryan this morning. Then out comes one of his advisors alex jones using alex's web site to go after paul ryan's group. (just saw on Maddow's show they also ran against paul ryan on bannon's site today.) Later when I saw dipshit tweet against John McCain first thing I thought of there will be a hit pieces coming out on bannon's or jone's site. It may not be today or tomorrow. But I think there will be something coming out soon.

Dipshit donnie will strike out at any slight he perceives. Also donnie has been known to keep grudge fights going for years. Right now he has at his disposal both bannon's and jone's web site. He tried going after ryan after the rnc convention by saying he may back ryan's opponent. So to me that was the beginning of at least donnie's grudge. Bannon has been against ryan for a long time.

Dipshit and the advisor's in his campaign seem to be using the web sites as a pressure point they can direct against any opposition or perceived slight against dipshit's campaign. This round may be a warning shot to try to get back some of the defections in the repub party. On msnbc tonite (Rachel or Chris's show can't remember) one repub who dropped their endorsement after the tape has re-instated the endorsement today.

My feeling is there will be more of this going on. With the tweet today citing paul ryan then followed up with John McCain as a perceived enemy. I think John will be targeted next.

I think of this more as a show of dominance and intimidation. The shot across the bow warning for any others who might waiver in total support of dipshit. Ryan was just the first target since he was someone who has a lot of influence over the "old" conservative party. Someone who if they are able to take down it will show their dominance over the rest.
