Trump should change tack or drop out: Wall Street Journal

Republican Donald Trump should fix his stumbling White House campaign by Labor Day or step down, The Wall Street Journal said on Monday in a sharply worded warning from a leading conservative voice.

"Mr. Trump has alienated his party and he isn't running a competent campaign," the newspaper said in an editorial.

The paper's editorial board, which generally favors Republicans, has been critical of Trump but its warning on Monday was its strongest attack yet and echoed growing anxiety among many Republicans over the state of Trump's campaign.

"If they can’t get Mr. Trump to change his act by Labor Day, the GOP will have no choice but to write off the nominee as hopeless and focus on salvaging the Senate and House and other down-ballot races," it said.

I never thought Trump was 'In it to win it'. It was all just to keep his name in the headlines.

2. Already working on it.

"If they can’t get Mr. Trump to change his act by Labor Day, the GOP will have no choice but to write off the nominee as hopeless and focus on salvaging the Senate and House and other down-ballot races," it said.

I thought they were doing this already

3. What the Wall Street Urinal is objecting to

is that the Trump campaign is being poorly run - not that Trump is a completely horrible candidate. I think they'd be just fine with an ignorant, bigoted, unstable asscarrot like Trump winning the presidency as long as said asscarrot is a GOPer. They're just pissed that his campaign is a trainwreck and he's going to lose, not that he, as a candidate and a human being, sucks hard enough to bend light in the first place.

4. Someone paid a lot to place that piece.

As I once saw from the inside, the WSJ editorial board doesn't even consider placing a piece on its editorial page without first class tickets to a five-star weekend, and probably one hell of a lot of covert bribery as well. In return, they never retract or disavow their propaganda, once published.

Even if this article were in their own naked self-interest--and it is, of course--they wouldn't have published it without lavish spending from, "a leading conservative voice." My money would be on Mitt Romney, still scheming to find a way into the White House without anyone actually having to vote for him.

5. Shut up WSJ! Trump know exactly what he's doing.

Giving us a glorious victory will be what we so richly deserve.

6. Oh no, FOX, the GOP, the WSJ and anyone else of the elites who bought him fair and square.

DT can just stay in the race and mop these slobs up into the slurry of slop they deserve to be in. I'm delighted to be enjoying this part of the 'Gone With The Wind' sequel.

“After all, tomorrow is another day!” And remember, “It was better to know the worst than to wonder.” Today we need leaders who are more than an empty suit.

Afterall, “Burdens are for shoulders strong enough to carry them.” We know, "You aren't helpless. Anyone as selfish and determined as you are is never helpless." Look at the bright side all you so called conservative scalawags, “Until you've lost your reputation, you never realize what a burden it was or what freedom really is.”

And if you don't, “My dear, I don't give a damn.”

7. Oh come on! He's running the best campaign that was ever run. Believe me.

8. Trump needs to be tied like an albatross around the necks of EVERY Republican running for

office. Every single one. When the Dems win in landslides around the country, we must keep the heat on them to change this country to one that works for the poor and middle class. Job creation, public health care, bolster unions, and equal rights for all. End corporate prisons and legalize marijuana and possibly all drugs.

9. Absolutely. Sick of this do-nothing Congress.

14. Some drugs need to be illegal

There is no way in hell PCP, crack and Crystal Meth should be legalized. Pot and LSD, fine. Meth, no damn way.
