Sharyl Attkisson: Democrats and African-Americans Tell Me They’re Voting for Trump (Video)
Gateway Pundit ^ | 10/05/15 | Jim Hoft

Posted on 10/06/2015 7:16:42 AM PDT by Enlightened1

Investigative reporter Sharyl Attkisson told Sean Hannity tonight that several Democratic friends are voting for Donald Trump this year.

Some of those people – People aren’t really talking much about this, are actually interested in Donald Trump. Again, I’ve had friends who normally vote Democrat, including women Democrats and African-Americans tell me that they’re crossing over to vote for Trump this year. So, I think anything is possible.

Via Hannity:

I saw that segment last night. She shouldn’t believe things that liberals tell her. They lie with ease. I admire her Sheryl she’s starting to sound a little naïve.

I’ve had several tell me. Some I’ve never trusted and still don’t. One in particular is a retired truck driver Dem and a vet struggling with health issues. He had tears in his eyes talking about how Trump was going to take care of the vets. Him, I trust.

HOORAY Trump

I’ve been pointing this out for a couple of months now. It’s frustrating that nobody is talking about 20th non-republican support he has. Its why I think he’ll win if he wins the nomination. And I don’t see that as a good thing. He’s no conservative.

“And I don’t see that as a good thing. He’s no conservative.”

I don’t see any conservatives actually being one. I don’t see any conservatives representing America and Americans!

Polling indicates what she is saying is true. Of course everyone lies to pollsters.

A Conservative is not going to win in this cycle IMHO.

The brand has been too badly tarnished by the onslaught of Democrat attacks which received NO pushback from the likes of George W. or Boehner.

Also tarnished by two-plus decades of the Chamber of Commerce and other crony-types pursuing their own financial self-interests above and beyond anything that was good for the country. Fairly or not, they are linked in the public’s mind to “conservatives”.

In a country that was trending to the right, a guy like Bernie Sanders would not be drawing these huge crowds. We are clearly now swimming against the tide.

It is clear this race is going to be won by a Populist. A Populist like Trump who leans to the right is likely the best we can hope for. Otherwise get ready for Bernie or the Fake Indian.

Trump is sooooooooo ‘NOT PC’... This is credible... people are afraid of saying openly they support his ideas.

Is she talking about crossover voting in the primaries, or general election.

I know Progressives (read: pseudointelectuals) who are planning to vote in the primaries for Trump as mischief making.

I also know Democrats (read: blue collar Reagan-type) who are planning to do so in both the primary and general.

Given the social circles Atkinson runs in, I’m thinking her friends are talking about the primaries. But I like hearing the stories about middle class Americans who are saying they will in the general.

I’m tired of so-called conservatives who ‘talk the talk’ to get elected then get to DC and do NOTHING.

If the definition of a conservative is the equivalent of a second year college student reading off a focus tested list of things conservatives believe - then I’m outta here...

Trump says he’ll build a wall. I believe he’s capable of doing that...

Trump says he’ll stop illegals. I believe he can do that.

Trump says he’ll make better trade deals. I believe he has the skills to do that.

Trump says he’ll protect the vets and make sure they get the medical care they deserve. He knows how to make companies work - he has the skills to do this.

Trump says he’ll protect our Second Ammendment Rights. I believe him.

Trump says he’ll protect Social Security for people who have work their whole lives and contributed to the system. He will do this...

So I don’t really care if he’s a ‘text book’ conservative who can mouth the Republican mantra. If he’s not a ‘true conservative’ - fine. Don’t care. If he stops illegals and protects our borders he can run under any banner he wants to...

"He’s no conservative."

Honestly? The way defining labels are being constantly redefined, I don't know what the definition of "a conservative" is nowadays or if "The Official Definition" is the same definition from one person to the next.

Trump, whatever he is, is right about a lot of things, but especially so about the impact he's had on the republicans and the nation's overall interest thanks to his being in the race.

Fascinating to watch as an observer, but probably not much fun for those in the game, which is one of the reasons it's so fascinating to watch!

“He’s no conservative.”

We need someone who will stand up to liberal forces that are destroying the country, and quickly so.

So far, Trump is the one who is doing that. You can’t name anyone else that is.
