TODAY is the reason the GOP establishment tried to get rid of Trump
We all saw how the establishment types openly tried to damage his campaign in the primaries but that darn media kept airing his wrestling match rallies from beginning to end. The even had basically pre-game coverage.
We now know that it was Paul Singer through the Washington Free Beacon who initiated the Steele dossier.
They were desperate to end Trump before he got started.
Initially it was because he was ripping the hood off their decades long effort to cover their racism. But I think they feared that THIS would happen. Perhaps they didn't expect collusion with the Russians but Trump is such a slimeball they had to know there was a lot of dirt in his past. Money laundering was always going to be the lead in to an investigation. They KNEW he'd come back to bite them in the ass.
They had too many people running which allowed Trump to win with small pluralities. They lost control of their party and then they REALLY lost control of everything.
They knew this was coming.
