Here are the GOP ‘traitors’ who’d rather see Hillary win than Trump ‘make America great again’

August 11, 2016 By: Frieda Powers

Some big-name Republicans, some not-so-big name members of the party, and some party has-beens are leading an exodus away from Donald Trump.

Though Trump secured the GOP nomination with more than the needed number of delegates, many prominent Republicans seem bent on fighting his candidacy, putting the party at risk for losing November’s election to Democrat Hillary Clinton.

The list of about 200 includes current and former elected officials and lawmakers, party officials and conservative pundits.

Senators like South Carolina’s Lindsey Graham and Nebraska’s Ben Sasse have been vocal opponents to Trump. Former presidential hopeful U.S. Sen. Ted Cruz made headlines for refusing to endorse the nominee at the Republican National Convention.

Some, like New York Congressman Richard Hanna, have openly declared they will vote for Clinton.

What follows is a current list of prominent Republicans who many may see as traitors to the party, backing opposing party nominees or simply not rallying behind Trump who fairly won the nomination.

Some voters, no doubt, will follow your recommendation and wait until September, but time is of the essence here. September 29, is the first debate, so it makes some sense to wait, but as time passes, voters' opinions solidify. If voters can keep an open mind, September is OK.

If Republicans think theyll ever win another election cow tailing to PC morons then they don't understand what's really going on here.

The problem still remains splitting the vote, Hillary keeps the wool over the eyes of the Democrats eyes and they're aren't enough of them to think on they're own, they will pull that Democrat lever everytime.
I'd recommend waiting until atleast September before giving up on old Trumpy.

So was Kasich, and we see what happened there.
When dealing w/ these Dems, it's going to get down in the mud, and we need a mud slinger.
Romney took the high ground and we see where it got him.
As far as Governor of New Mexico, well...

Donald's backers are deserting him in droves as he messes up his campaign by inappropriate rhetoric. Those who now cannot vote for Donald, or Hillary, will have to go somewhere, or not vote, at all. Most of them have never missed an election and this one will be no different.

The only place for the disaffected Donald voters to go is to Gary. Once these former Donald supporters realize that Donald cannot win, they will switch to Gary. Hence, it is not a matter of being smart enough...it is a matter of having nobody else to choose from.

That being said, Gary is a smarter, better candidate than Donald ever was.

The point is that Gary is not a clown, as you put it. He is a serious candidate, with a proven record.

As for Kasich and Romney...Kasich was a late starter and Romney was a RINO.

I never said he was a clown,
just that he doesn't stand a snowballs chance in hell at winning, all he ll do is split the vote.

Especially w/ the total lack of boarder control and the stance of the majority of Republicans have taken about an out-of-control immigrantion policy.

You did nail it w/ Kasich, which is the point im trying to make about Johnson.
Although Kasich is also a CFR owned chump, and wouldn't have been a damn bit better than Hillary, as theyre both owned by the same people.

Gary has been running for President since 2008, when he lost the nomination to McCain. Although he did very well in the Republican debates, he was ejected from the Republican nomination process by party leaders, because they wanted McCain to win. In 2012, Gary switched to the Libertarian Party, obtained their nomination, but lost the election, as did Romney.

Gary has no major contributors and is backed fully by the Libertarian Party, who are NOT secret backers. His running mate is William Wells, the former Governor of Mass.

The real question is what motivated Trump to run in this election?

Id expect him to ramp up come September into October, when the undecided voters start paying attention.
Hillary has spent a small fortune attacking him w/ little to no prevail.

I do remember. This year is different. It is Trump who is splitting the vote by alienating large segments of the Republican Party by his imprudent rhetoric on so many issues. By his rhetoric, Trump has caused himself and the Republicans any chance of winning the election.

Get It? Trump can no longer win. Only Gary will also be on the ballot in all 51 jurisdictions to challenge Hillary. If Donald cannot win, it is Gary, or Hillary: your choice.
