Bullets aren't flying, at least not yet. But, we definitely have an all out war in the GOP. I imagine this will not end well.

Meanwhile in Kansas, it just got real.
What happened? I still remember the old Reagan edict, "Thou shall not speak ill of Republicans." lol....I guess they buried that back when they buried Ron-Ron.

...behind the scenes, an all-out war between the party establishment and conservative base is breaking out -- in the halls of Congress, the fight for control of the Senate and in battleground states -- all threatening the GOP's chances of winning this fall.
Conservative insurgents in key Senate races are throwing their full-fledged support behind Donald Trump, hoping to foment anger at incumbent Republicans worried that embracing the controversial nominee too tightly could alienate swing voters.
Meanwhile in Kansas, it just got real.
House Freedom Caucus Chairman Jim Jordan, R-Ohio, issued a tough statement Wednesday morning, slamming his own leadership, saying while they should be uniting to run against the Clinton, "the House Republican leadership's opposition to Tim Huelskamp significantly damaged the ability of House Republicans to do that."
GOP leaders deny working to defeat one of their own, but Huelksamp said they didn't help him.
"He gave me no help pretty clearly," Huelksamp said of Ryan.
