  “Moderate Republican” translates as “Republican in Name Only”, and an almost certain negative voice on President Trump.

Because Trump is so unconventional, they feel a “wrongness” in his approach to problems and stand aghast at his sometimes sudden shortcuts to untangle the Gordian knots of current political conundrums.

Like Alexander the Great, a simple slash of the sword is enough to solve some very complicated-looking problems, and the carnage is not nearly as bad as never making the attempt.

She’s hasn’t been governor for near 20 years and is just trying to stay relevant amongst the Never Trump cocktail circuit.

Who cares? Even Democrats in NJ don’t want her.

Interesting when his fellow Democrats can’t stand him and she’s the only one in NJ backing him. Whitman is a political genius for sure.

Hey, Christine, the only reason you got my vote was because you weren’t Jim Florio. You didn’t do squat to reverse the destructive trends that he started and/or amplified in the state in which I was raised and spent most of my life, and I simply cannot forgive you for that. I’ve left NJ, because - partially thanks to you - it has become a festering pustule of Leftism that treats ordinary citizens like serfs. As for your statement on Trump: your time has (thankfully) passed. Go back to your estate, err, farm (you know, the one with a few goats and chickens to get out of paying real estate taxes like any other homeowner) and live out your crone years without bothering the rest of us. You have done enough damage already - go away and shut up!

Was Whitman’s mind boggled when the house voted on straight party line with it’s bullshit impeachment?

Are they a jury, or not?

Juries judge what's put in front of them.

"Moderate" "Republican" from New Jersey = liberal Democrat.

She’s probably too uninformed to know that the House took testimony from many witnesses. Maybe because Schifty took their testimony under double secret probation.

Chris Christie should do us a solid and just eat this b**ch. Wouldn’t take him more than 3 or 4 bites.

Christie Todd Whitless, the dingbat who told the 911 rescuers the air around ground zero was perfectly safe costing countless lives.

Yes she did - remember that well. Wonder if she has ever been sued personally for this, and if not, why not?

We are purging the GOP of these types.

That’s the best thing about Trump.

She’s gone totally “Bill Weld/Colin Powel”.

STFU and go away.

>> She’s gone totally “Bill Weld/Colin Powel”. <<

No, she's been in Bill Weld/Colin Powell territory since she was elected with an "R" next to her name.

Speaking of Powell, my dream scenario is a reporter confronting that fraud and asking "Republican" Colin Powell if he can name a SINGLE example of a Republican he ever supported or campaigned for, aside from the ones who already HIRED him to work for them. "If you're such a proud Republican, why don't ever back a single Republican candidate on their own merits? Why do you only support them if they pay your salary?"

Of course, the liberal media would never ask him that.
