The head of the Republican National Committee, responding to demands from increasingly worried party leaders, spent nearly an hour Wednesday on the phone with Donald Trump, urging the presidential candidate to tone down his inflammatory comments about immigration that have infuriated a key election constituency.

The call from Chairman Reince Priebus, described by donors and consultants briefed on the conversation and confirmed by the RNC, underscores the extent to which Trump has gone from an embarrassment to a cause for serious alarm among top Republicans in Washington and nationwide.

Donald Trump's ideas are not Republican ideas. That's why the Party is frantic about it.

He has the Republican NAME, and that makes it possible for people who are excessively devoted to the GOP to vote for him, but his policies are not Republican policies at all.

(Mind you, that's a GOOD thing, because the Republican policies are dumb, and nobody will vote for those but Republicans…who are about 30% of the electorate).

So, with Trump the GOP is getting what it got with Eisenhower and with Reagan - a populist who faces issues pragmatically - but that is not really the GOP. Hence the panic: Trump could WIN, and the Republicans win, and then Trump could get in there and do what Trump thinks is best, and that ain't the Republican Platform.

The Party(tm) is frantic about it because The Donald brings his own purse and doesn't need the permission of the brainworks of the farm -- who fear loosing their entitlements to Milk and Apples.
