Sarah Palin, of all people, is spelling out how Trump might have allowed Breitbart to essentially tear the wheels off the train by softening his immigration stance;
‘If Mr. Trump were to go down a path of wishy-washy positions taken on things that the core foundation of his support has so appreciated, and that is respecting our Constitution and respecting law and order in America, then yeah, there would be massive disappointment. Parts of that message we heard in the last week are clearly not consistent with the stringent position and message that supporters have received all along.’
‘The focus needs to be not on whether an illegal immigrant is a good person or a bad person but how sustainable it is to incentivize illegal immigrants to come over our borders.
‘What we appreciate about Trump is that he hasn’t been a politician, and I would hope the people around him are not influencing him to be a typical politician. As in all campaigns and administrations, you have people who try to mold and meld and massage that candidate or that administrator to become something that they want, as opposed to what is in the core of that candidate or that administrator. That’s why the candidate or administrator has to have a backbone of steel.’
Bolded portion is outrageously cogent here. The reason America's most ignorant White flunky bigots got on the train is because Trump is not a politician. By providing Trump a more palatable, realistic policy narrative, Breitbart has pretty much started to alienate his core support in an effort to capture the center of the field.
Obviously this is laughable because the closer to the center you get, the better educated and informed the audience becomes. And no matter what Trump says, none of those essential center votes are going to magically forget who and what Trump is, or what he's said and done.
TL;DR when Sarah Palin said you just shot holes in the bottom of your political boat then fucked them with a flaming chainsaw, you should assume its an understatement.

It's imo highly doubtful that Breitbart is charting that course. The hedge fund billionaire Mercer who funds Breitbart, and also has employed Kelly Anne Conway for years, put them both in charge in a last ditch attempt to pull this out.
It's counter-intuitive that those recommendations came from Bannon, as they are anathema to pretty much everything he stands for. It seems far more likely that softening comes from Conway, as making Neandrethals palatable to suburban Republican soccer moms is her life's work. She does politics and market research aimed totally at women who cringe at the idea of splitting up Paco and his law abiding family if they are simply productive while being Hispanic. His softening stance is an appeal to those women, as he's toast without him.
The call Hillary a bigot is more in line with what is likely the Breitbart contribution.
I've saw the strategy compared to Obama and gay marriage. In 08, he ran on traditional marriage. Where were the gays going to go? To the GOP? They knew he was running to win, and was with them in spirit. The voters motivated by mass deportation are no different. They'll kvetch, but where they going to go? Hillary? The calculus is you need to reign back in more suburban traditional GOP voters than those on the extreme you alienate by being reasonable. Seems fundamentally sound strategy. I don't think Trump ultimately wins, but it won't be because he is hedging on immigrants. It will be the myriad reasons he's turned off women and the educated from the beginning. Not just one single issue with the vast majority.

Im just saying, having any sort of message that isnt outright lunacy is pretty much something we never saw until Bannon sunk himself balls deep into Trump's campaign.
It's not the messages that I identify as being Bannon, its having any viable message at all that I prescribe to Bannon's influence. And really, that lack of ad libbed histrionic narcissist lunacy is driving away his poor white trash base, galvanizing his neo-nazi separatist base, and pretty much bouncing off everyone else because exactly no one with a G.E.D. or better is fooled.

Obama tried to placate gays by proposing "civil unions" to give them civil rights. He's always been a Bill Clinton centrist, not a liberal.

He is not a centrist.
He is a Muslim and looks away at every turn when it comes to Christians , gays and woman being slaughtered and sold into slavery..
Oh wait a minute. Our new villain is Assad and Putin .. not the growing global Sharia Muslim network bringing hell on earth.

Trump is quite literally bankrupting the RNC:
While in previous presidential years the GOP went into the last ninety days before the election with $70 to $90 million in the bank, the party showed a balance of $34.5 million in cash on hand at the end of July — compared to $88.7 million four years ago.
Making matters worse, of those funds, only $15 million is available in unrestricted dollars that can be used toward the election which includes not only funding Trump’s faltering campaign but also get-out-the-vote operations, registration drives and data operations that help down-ticket candidates as well.
One of the myriad of problems the party is facing is backing a candidate who has a history of bankruptcies — blithely walking away with cash in his pockets while leaving investors holding the bag — and who once declared, “I’m the king of debt. I love debt.”
Additionally, the Trump campaign has asked the RNC to open field offices for him in all 50 states — including states where he stands no chance such as California and New York — putting a further strain on the few dollars available.

The Trump campaign could save a lot of money by staffing all of their offices with 12 year olds.

Trump in bad shape.
Even if he wins Florida, Ohio, Iowa, North Carolina, and Nevada, plus carries all the states leaning Republican but not solid (Arizona, Georgia, Utah), he will still lose the election.
This is because he has fallen way behind in Pennsylvania, New Hampshire, Virginia, and Colorado.
So that's big trouble, because the strategy of "carry what Romney did in 2012, then win Ohio, Florida, and get 19 more electoral votes on top of that" is not going to work.
Even if he wins Ohio and Florida (which he probably won't), he's not going to score those extra 19. Just not enough states going his way to make it happen.
