McCain is up next, apparently. This is an actual presidential candidate, and he can't stop himself from blasting people on twitter. Un-fucking-real.

Donald J. TrumpVerified account‏@realDonaldTrump
The very foul mouthed Sen. John McCain begged for my support during his primary (I gave, he won), then dropped me over locker room remarks!
I see the "I know you are, but what am I" technique of response is working well.

Trump just posted this on Twitter:

Donald J. Trump ‏@realDonaldTrump 1h1 hour ago
Paul Ryan should spend more time on balancing the budget, jobs and illegal immigration and not waste his time on fighting Republican nominee


He really doesn't care if he burns the party to the ground.
Probably because he's not a true republican? Or equally similar chance he's such an egotistical child, he would literally do anything, included apparently tank an entire government party AND himself, just to prove a point.

Trump is effectively turning the guns on his own troops, a move that might be personally satisfying to him but that will result in near-certain carnage for lots of Republicans.

The promise to be unshackled means that this is going to get worse for Republicans. Maybe far worse. Trump will undoubtedly “go there” more often against Bill Clinton — as he did in the second debate — but will also do everything he can to embarrass Republican politicians who he believes have betrayed him (and their constituents).

not sure how to embed tweets, I don't have an account, so I'll just quote them
from herr drumpf
Our very weak and ineffective leader, Paul Ryan, had a bad conference call where his members went wild at his disloyalty.

8:05 AM - 11 Oct 2016
It is so nice that the shackles have been taken off me and I can now fight for America the way I want to.

9:00 AM - 11 Oct 2016
Disloyal R's are far more difficult than Crooked Hillary. They come at you from all sides. They don’t know how to win - I will teach them!

9:48 AM - 11 Oct 2016
With the exception of cheating Bernie out of the nom the Dems have always proven to be far more loyal to each other than the Republicans!

9:15 AM - 11 Oct 2016 · Queens, NY, United States

fuuuuuuuuuuuck... I do believe we are reaching meltdown levels. I try to avoid hyperbole, don't always succeed, but damn this is really, and truly a meltdown for both drumpf and the gop.

Even Glenn Beck calls Hillary the moral, ethical choice:

"
Conservative political commentator and media personality Glenn Beck said opposing Donald Trump is a "moral, ethical" choice — even if that results in Hillary Clinton becoming the next president.

The outspoken opponent of the GOP's presidential nominee wrote on Facebook over the weekend that every voter had to decide for themselves what constitutes "a bridge too far," after the release of footage last week in which Trump can be heard making lewd and sexually aggressive comments about women.
"It is not acceptable to ask a moral, dignified man to cast his vote to help elect an immoral man who is absent decency or dignity," Beck wrote on Facebook in reference to Trump. "If the consequence of standing against Trump and for principles is indeed the election of Hillary Clinton, so be it. At least it is a moral, ethical choice.""

BTW: Where is Pence? He kind of needs the establishment.

I think everyone who are still actively supporting him have decided that they have other i$$ues they believe are more important. Trump at this point wants to be the head of the Breitbart wing of the party. And doing so will be very lucrative.

Sorry I cannot suddenly agree with beck because he's not spouting crazy for once. He's discounted himself as a source of credibility on anything a very long time ago. I'd feel very hypocritical if I used him as a reference, other than something said that is batshit crazy.

There are already rumblings amongst the derplorables to vote only for Trump and leave the downballot blank to punish the back-stabbing party establishment. If the war heats up, Trump may lash out by tweeting a clear explicit request that all his followers follow that plan.

His intention all along was to destroy the Republican Party?

Possibly..Donald has become the albatross around the neck of the Republican party. He's shown that there is an enormous market for toxic populism. The next time toxic populism is expressed, it may be by someone who is less of an obvious clown and troll than Trump. Such a person has a shot ...

I don't agree with nearly everything Beck says. And I'm not implying that I like him now or anybody should do so. I'm just pointing out another defection from the right. And a surprising one at that.

It almost seems that way, doesn't it? The Democrats couldn't have possibly crafted a better plan to bring down the GOP than Donald Trump.

But, I think not. While Donald Trump is a con-man, this would have probably been the longest con ever in American politics. The simplest explanation is probably the correct one: Donald has never felt any loyalty to anyone, and the second he thinks it's convenient or he feels slighted he's willing to throw them all under the bus.

This guy is/was a democrat and now his true colors as a plant is coming out. Also, wtf did these recordings not come out a year ago to deep six his campaign?!! Any of the other candidates would've been better

B/c a year ago, nobody actually thought he'd even be in the top 3 of Republican nominees, let alone actually getting the nomination.

After 2008 and 2012 the GOP did the same things: (1) Do an internal study as to why they lost-basic conclusion each time is they need to reach out and capture a larger portion of the Hispanic vote, etc, which reports were only given lip service until Trump actively trashed them this time around. and (2) the GOP congress critters will vote and act in lockstep actively opposing each and everything the President seeks.

The exact same things will happen this time. The only difference will be Trump will be persona non grata in GOP circles-he will be blamed for everything and will have absolutely no influence after the polls close on November 8th.

Hopefully American voters wake up and throw he bums out in Congress-that is really what is crippling us. Ironically if Trumpistas refuse to vote for GOP underticket then they actually will be taking some real (and unintended) action to make America great again.
