Civil war has erupted in the Republican Party, and the Republican establishment is in full-blown panic mode. Donald Trump was never supposed to get this far, and now party insiders are scrambling to come up with a plan to block him from securing the nomination before the convention. After winning seven states on Super Tuesday, you would think that the Republican Party would be rallying around Trump and preparing for a tough general election battle with Hillary Clinton. Instead, the goal is now to stop Trump at all costs.

It is amazing to me that a candidate that is openly at war with the Republican Party establishment, Fox News, Glenn Beck and a whole bunch of other prominent conservative pundits is running away with the race for the nomination. If someone would have told me this a year ago, I never would have believed it.

But the war is far from over. Special interest groups are going to pour tens of millions of dollars into an all-out attempt to defeat Trump, and the mainstream media is going to continue to try to smear him however they can...

Moving forward, the Republican establishment has four main options that it can try in an attempt to stop Trump…

#1 Marco Rubio – The establishment could put everything that they have into pumping up Marco Rubio’s failing campaign, but it might be too late. Just like Jeb Bush, Rubio doesn’t really inspire anyone, and his reputation of being robotic is well deserved.

#2 Mitt Romney – Have you noticed that Mitt Romney has started to make a lot of waves over the past week or so?

#3 Independent Campaign – There had always been speculation that Donald Trump would try an independent campaign if he did not get the nomination, but now it is Republican insiders that are seriously considering going this route.

#4 Throw The Campaign To Hillary – This may sound completely and utterly bizarre, but the truth is that most establishment Republicans are far more comfortable with Hillary Clinton than they are with either Donald Trump or Ted Cruz.
