Trump must be stopped because he will lose the general election to Hillary, or whoever, and will take down the Republican Party and possibly the Country for a long long time. Currently Bernie Sanders beats Trump more easily than Hillary Clinton in new polls. The USA could very well become a socialist country. Labor and business built America the highest stand of living the world has ever known…not government. Governor John Kasich in Ohio is the key to halting Trump’s rise. With added Ted Cruz winning of delegates, it appears more than likely Trump will not get the needed 1,237 delegates to automatically get the nomination. An unlikely win by Marco Rubio in Florida would clinch the stoppage.
The chaos in Chicago Friday, although over dramatized with incidental TV clips while only five were arrested, nevertheless has become a thing of danger with possible dangerous consequences. True, Trump has the right to free speech which was denied. That should never happen. There were elements of extremist financier George Soros financing the Move On .org contingent, black lives matter people were present, the faction of revolutionary William Ayes present, plus Presidential Candidate Bernie Sanders people were present. It was a well planned disruption that succeeded. To his credit Trump called off his rally.
Said Ohio Governor and candidate, John Kasich “Donald Trump has created a very toxic environment.” Trump doubling down, not calming down the matter, means more of the same. He is putting his life and the lives of others in danger. These protests are not going to stop and likely get worse as Trump was attacked in a Ohio rally Saturday stopped by the Secret Service protection. Campaign fatigue and his combativeness are making him worse than ever.
Donald Trump’s behavior is losing support from Republican voters. Before Friday, Trump was only garnering 35% of GOP voters meaning 65% want somebody else. Trump will lose the general election without their support, having already lost support from other key factions, because there are simply not enough white cross over voters to carry him to November victory.
However, stopping Trump from winning the nomination in a contested convention, not brokered, is a “double edge sword.” His supporters must be retained to vote Republican or all will be lost. If the nomination is secured away from Trump, it must be done in a manner that is some how respectful to Trump. Not an easy chore. Very unlikely, but if Trump would support another Republican candidate it would critical. Knowing Donald Trump, he probably would never do it. The only possibility would be for Party leaders to offer Trump something in return. Wildly speculative here…perhaps offer him to pick the Vice President and or Dr. Carson the Health and Human Services post. Probably not enough. And, no, Trump would never take a position in a new administration. All or nothing Trump. Likely Party leaders would come up with something. They would have to.
This campaign is turning into something not seen since the Chicago protests of 1968 or the segregationist Alabama Gov.George Wallace in prior years. Wallace was eventually shot and badly crippled for life. The 2016 campaign has turned ugly. Very ugly. And it won’t stop because Trump won’t give in to calming matters down.
What can one do? I urge all of my readers living in Tuesday primary States to go vote Republican for anyone but Trump. Especially John Kasich, he’s the key, and Marco Rubio in Florida. It has been said several times if Trump does not get the needed 1,237 delegates for the nomination before the convention, he will never walk out of the convention with that nomination. Here’s “wishin’ and hopin” not just to stop Trump, but to present a Republican candidate who can win the Presidency. And it won’t be Ted Cruz because his brand of extremism can’t win either. Vote that way not just for the Republican Party, but for the sake of our Country as we once knew and it was intended to be by our Founders.
