Could any of the other 16 Republican's have defeated Hillary?

Posted on 11/28/2016 3:21:02 PM PST by MNDude

Now that the election is in the past, and we now have the insight of looking back, do you think any of the other Republican candidates running for congress could have won the general election against Hillary?

If so, which other candidate(s) do you think also would have defeated Hillary, and which important swing states that Trump won or lost do you think they would pick up?

Double Secret “NO”.

It was time for an outsider with balls, a non-GOP mindset, and some business experience. The rest he can learn and appoint good advisors and govt leaders.

None.

Cruz was too conservative for the Rust Belt and Jeb was a GOP establishment squish - trust fund kid of his family.

Trump won for a reason - he wasn’t like them.

No. Too much powerful evil was behind her and it took someone who would punch back and twice as hard. Virtually the entire cast of Republicans would’ve peed their panties and run and hid in a closet at the first attack from her.

No way, no how.

DJT is our man for such a time as this, even if some of us (myself included) didn’t realize it at first.

No one had the testicles of Trump, no one. No one could have worked this hard, and that explains why Romney lost, no testicles to stand up to Obozo and work hard.

Jeb’s big tent was a surefire way to lose. Donald Trump figured out that the Big Tent that actually worked was to rethink the republican position on trade deals

I had lefties and never-Trumper right before the election say to me; a Kasich or Bush would’ve beaten Hillary. They wouldn’t have, and those guys weren’t conservative.

I liked a couple of the other candidates but given the President-socalled openly inviting illegal aliens to vote by promising them no penalties
and
given the millions of illegals and enemy Moslems he’s brought into USA or permitted to enter in the last 8 years

and given how he or his allies have fought against ANY, even the most simple and ridimentary voter ID rules everywhere across USA (thus enabling millions more illegal or duplicate votes to be cast)

and given all the rest of the dirty illegal or rotten manipulations for the D candidate to win....including her financial backer having a significant ownership interest in the largest voting machine manufacturing company (!)

no, I think Mr Trump may well have been the ONLY candidate that could beat her
