Crossing the Aisle: Growing Number of Republicans Won't Back Trump

http://abcnews.go.com/Politics/crossing-aisle-growing-number-republicans-back-trump/story?id=41100659

"Here is a running roll call of Republicans defecting from the GOP:"


==================================
Thanks to ABC News for this report.

Imho, there will be fewer and fewer Republicans singing to the tune that Trump will beat Clinton in November. The trend has now started and he will not beat Hillary. And as more and more Republicans are making the switch to HILLARY CLINTON they are showing their political party that they have no faith in Trump to become president and that Clinton is their choice now and in November.

The list of influential Republican people switching to Clinton is so huge that they all cannot be listed here. Be sure to read the report! Gotta Love It!

The forum rules will be strictly observed by participants in this thread or non-conforming members will be thread banned.

If You Don't Like What Is Being Discussed In the OP You Can Always Do the Courteous Thing and Just Leave the Thread.

There is no different between the Democrat and Republican establishment.

This is not news.

I think it's substantial news! Just look at all of those Republicans who are now switching over to Hillary's side! That would have been unheard of just a few weeks ago. And the trend can only continue as they get to see the real Trump and decide he's just not fit for the nation's highest office.

They are not switching sides. They are part of the Establishment.

What if they say they are and don't really do it?

One vote isn't much. Saying it can cause a cascade effect.

Never enough to make up for all the Bernie supporters (13 million) that Hillary lost.

http://www.kolobok.us/smiles/big_standart/biggrin.gif You evidently are not aware of the fact that now a little over 90% of Trump's supporters are going to Hillary Clinton! How does that grab you?! :)

And if you don't believe me, here's the PROOF!

Hillary Clinton Opens 9-Point Lead on Trump in New National Poll, Gains Among Independents, Sanders Supporters

"But now, 91 percent of Sanders backers say they will vote for Clinton and 6 for Trump, who has predicted that the Vermont lawmaker's supporters will come to his side."

I think it's comical that you'll report this, but you won't report that Hillary can't poll above 45% and won't report the number of progressive people that won't vote for her.

Yep, the list grows. I saw a number the other day that a lower percentage of those who VOTED for him trust him with the "football and the biscuit".

Many will get cold feet at the last minute - they know damned well he's unstable and impulsive.

Most of the conservatives I know are not supporting Trump.

Honestly, I don't believe you really know what conservatism is all about.

Don't be fooled by that Pew (PU) Research poll that says 90% of Sanders supporters will vote for Hillary, the polling data was collected in December 2015, March 2016 and April 2016 (http://www.dailykos.com/story/2016/7/25/1552338/-90-of-Sanders-Supporters-Now-Back-Clinton-Pew-Research). That's long before the Wikileaks incriminating DNC eMail dump and Comey calling "Hillary Clinton was “extremely careless” in her handling of highly sensitive classified Material. Here is a more recent poll the same day the DNC eMails were released.


Nearly Half of Sanders Supporters Won’t Support Clinton: Poll

By Joshua Green | Sahil Kapur

June 22, 2016 — 5:00 AM EDT

A June 14 Bloomberg Politics national poll of likely voters in November’s election found that barely half of those who favored Sanders -- 55 percent -- plan to vote for Clinton. Instead, 22 percent say they’ll vote for Trump, while 18 percent favor Libertarian Gary Johnson.
