A high-ranking political insider is blowing the whistle on the establishment GOP’s plot to manipulate the primaries to keep Donald Trump from being nominated.
Speaking on Breitbart News Daily last Thursday, veteran political pollster and consultant Pat Caddell described what he believes to be a calculated strategy by Republican leaders to insert the candidate of their choice at the last minute at the GOP convention.
He explained to host Stephen K. Bannon that to this end, the establishment is tacitly supporting Ted Cruz as he squares off against party frontrunner Donald Trump. If Cruz gets enough delegates, he will be able to keep Trump from getting a clear majority and thus denying him the nomination.
However, Caddell notes that the establishment dislikes Cruz almost as much as it dislikes Trump, so it will almost certainly abandon him at the nomination to make way for an insider darling like Jeb Bush.
That even Democrats like Caddell are noticing how determined the Republican establishment is to stop Trump should tell you how high the stakes are this election.

As an outsider looking in, Caddell might actually be able to provide trenchant criticism of the GOP establishment that Republicans might otherwise be reluctant to voice. He even went as far as to say something that conservatives would likely think unthinkable: that the party leadership would rather lose to Hillary than win with Trump:
“’I think the odds are the Trump is the decided underdog right now,’ said Caddell, predicting that a big Cruz win in Wisconsin would make it ‘very difficult’ for Trump to collect the 1,237 delegates he needs to win the first round of balloting at the Republican National Convention. Also, a loss in Wisconsin will ‘energize’ those who wish to block Trump from winning the nomination.
‘It depends on how he recovers, and how the electorate that’s been pushing him recovers,’ said Caddell. ‘There’s a Quinnipiac poll out this morning that shows him with 56% of the vote in New York. He’s never been higher than 30 in Wisconsin, but he’s going back to his home territory. New Jersey is winner-take-all. California is a big campaign.’
If Trump can’t recover and get the delegates he needs, Caddell thought Senator Cruz would likely find himself discarded after the first ballot at the convention, his usefulness to the Party bosses at an end.
‘If they can stop Trump, then Cruz will pick up some more on the second ballot… but I don’t think they’re gonna nominate him,’ he explained. ‘I think they will then move to nominate, to try to nominate an Establishment figure, someone who hasn’t run. I think that will blow the Republican Party up.’
Caddell said the GOP Establishment is ‘terrified of Trump,’ and also opposed to Cruz, because ‘they are worried about their arrangements being broken up, their power.’
He said these Establishment politicians would ‘absolutely’ rather lose the 2016 election to Hillary Clinton than win with Trump or Cruz. Conversely, the voters who have propelled Trump and Cruz to victory over a platoon of more Establishment-approved candidates are unlikely to ‘reconcile’ themselves to an Establishment pick inserted at the Republican National Convention.”

Everybody keeps forgetting THAT WE’RE IN CHARGE NOT THEM! THEY WORK FOR US. WE’LL have an uprising SO BIG THAT THEY’LL HAVE TO LISTEN. SO MANY AMERICANS ARE AWAKE NOW!
THANKFULLY YOU GET IT! THANK YOU! Keep telling people.
So Sherry Young, do we vote for HILARY, SANDERS??? A woman wo is under a FEDERAL INVESTIGATION AND who’s left 4 of our guys to DIE in Bengahzi and LIE ABOUT IT. LIKE SHE’S DONE ABOUT EVERYTHING? Or Sanders who is KNOW SOCIALIST/COMMUNIST. My father,grand father and great grand dad, would weep NO TO MENTION THE THOUSANDS OF SOLDIERS who have lost their lives for THIS NATION. YOU need to do your DUE DILIGENCE before you vote. For pete’s sake DON’T BELIEVE THE FREAKIN’ MEDIA. DO YOUR OWN RESEARCH! TED CRUZ IS IN BED WITH THE ESTABLISHMENT. HE’S OWNED AND SO IS HIS WIFE! HIS WIFE HAS WORKED HARD TO BRING ABOUT THE NEW WORLD ORDER. NO other candidate has even talked about the NEW WORLD ORDER BUT TRUMP!! WHY DO YOU THINK THAT IS???? I’M VOTING FOR TRUMP BECAUSE THEY DON’T WANT ME TO! AND THAT’S REASON ENOUGH
Susan, I believe in my heart that Cruz is part of the whole game plan. He’s definitely in bed with the establishment. His whole game is to try and convenience people that he’s NOT one of them! His wife is part of the North American Union for pete’s sake. She works for Goldman Sachs who is on the board of the Federal Reserve! Trump wants to audit the Federal Reserve and Cruz said he supports that as well. WHEN IT CAME DOWN TO THE VOTE IN CONGRESS, CRUZ WAS A NO SHOW. PLEASE keep telling people your view. It helps to educate people. Cruz’s dad calls him the anointed one. The only anointed one is Jesus Christ.
That may not be necessarily true. It’s a lot easier not to vote than to show up at the convention. Most people could not afford it.
it is truely now a one party system and it is uncovered because of Trump. This has been in existence though ever since LBJ killed off JFK. Read all the history since thenand you will see this clearly. All the politicians went to the same schools together. Heck, even Generals Grant and Lee went to West Point together,they knew one another as friends. The same here today with politicians and that is why nothing works anymore.
yes the New World Order thing is actually now the Global Warming thing,because it makes them beleive in it when it is harming us all. George H. Bush (daddy president) talked about the New W orld Order on TV years ago and it caused so much stink among people, they hen hushed it up quick and then created the Global Warming thing with Al Gore. This is all about World control over the population. The UN and agenda 21 and other documents think that there are to many people here on earth. Ever wonder why there are so many wars and no one seems to try to stop them, well here you have it. Read the UN documents, it is all there.
even if we do vote Trump and the mess all stays the same, well it would then show us that they all were in this and our vote didn’t matter then anyway. America is on a sinking ship otherwise. The meek will inherit the earth anyway eventually.
Hillary is a true psychopath. And I’m not just saying that yo senselessly bash her. How has no one done the research to figure this out. You don’t have to dig very deep.
Oh i know they need to eliminate 5.5 billion people then they esitimate the need to eliminate 25 million people here in the US
