GOP’s Rick Wilson: The Donor Class Must ‘Put a Bullet in Donald Trump’


From a report regarding Republican consultant Rick Wilson (who speaks for the GOP establishment):

In an interview with MSNBC’s Chris Hayes, Wilson conceded that “Trump is still a very powerful force right now” because he appeals to part of the of the conservative base that Wilson said was activated by his “nativist” message. Wilson insisted that the donor class “can’t just sit back on the sidelines and say, ‘oh well, don’t worry, this will all work itself out.’”

“They’re still going to have to go out and put a bullet in Donald Trump,” Wilson said. “And that’s a fact.”

Republican establishment figures who have underestimated Trump since he entered the race are reportedly looking to raise millions to try to derail Trump and knock him out of the race. Wilson added that the Republican establishment must figure out a way to find a candidate who can successfully “post up” against Hillary Clinton because “neither Donald Trump or Ben Carson is ready to go up against the Clinton machine. Wilson claimed that Trump and Carson are “obviously not ready for primetime.”

During a September CNN interview, Wilson told Erin Burnett that Trump could “eat a live baby on television” and Trump’s supporters “would think it’s the greatest thing in America.” He has also demeaned Trump’s supporters as “low-information” rubes and has likened them to “post-rational” conspiracy theorists.

In an interview with CNN’s Don Lemon, Wilson said Trump’s message “doesn’t have to make sense” for his supporters to back him and compared Trump to someone who is a conspiracy theorist like “your cranky uncle at Thanksgiving” who always has a theory about the Bilderbergers or the World Bank, or the IMF, or the Trilateral Commission.”

Finally it’s confirmed the conservative wing of the GOP is expendable to those GOP establishment types:

GOP establishment consultants often preach that “politics is about addition” when taking shots at conservatives for rhetoric that they do not like or think will turn off “independents,” but those like Wilson have been quick to attack Trump and his supporters with inflammatory language that they would never tolerate from conservative candidates and their grassroots supporters.

How dead wrong these old timers at the GOP are in regards to the conservative base.  Going back to the last time California went “red” and set their delegates for the then next President of the US, 1980, Ronald Reagan.  Reagan was that dark horse with a white knight riding into that 1980 race.  Reagan was too hardcore, he would split the vote in the party and no Independents would vote Reagan.  No, it was George Bush’s (41) turn.  He was from the ilk of that moderate realm, he was a member of the old boys network.

Reagan was not considered a real insider, due to his conservative views.  Reagan had started out in politics a Democrat, then he had a “epiphany”.  Reagan became a conservative, and not in name only.  Reagan believed in conservative values and it was that passion and honesty that came through to a country that was facing 17% interest rates and humiliation by Iran, kidnapping and holding Americans hostage.

2016 is 1980.  Rick Wilson and the wise ones of the GOP haven’t caught up with what type of election cycle is going on.  It is a fact, it will take a true conservative, to bring this country back together.  The race currently has a few conservatives still in the race.  We shall see what course the electorate responds to as time goes on.
