If anyone here is connected to the Trump Campaign, I am advising them to get a conference call set up for Trump to talk directly to people like Kristol, Krauthammer, Jay Cost, Joe Scarborough, etc. He can reassure them regarding the Supreme Court, Taxes, Obamacare, etc., and to ask directly for their support. This is a time of war and our priority is to win. We need the Republicans to come home.
Thank you for being reasonable. I am angry and disappointed at them as well, but I read how Reagan overcame polls and won, and watched some YouTube videos of election night 1980 and 1984 yesterday, which gave me this idea. One of the things that was so admirable about Reagan was his magnanimity. Pence himself said that if the Republicans come home that we will win. Let's win. We are starting to surge. Let's get EVERYONE on the Trump train. Even at this late hour. They write columns, go on news shows, etc. It's not just them. There are many that still read the Weekly Standard/National Review, and still are interested in what they say.
The only reach out they need is a good slap upside the head.
Follow the money and will likely find they are all funded by Soros. Any call would be twisted to say he is desperate.
It’s too late for approaching Never Trumpers.
It would not go well at all, as it would give the jerks media coverage where they could spell out their negative views.
It would wind up being a great set of commercials for Hitlery.
So IMO, not a bright idea. Trump’s doing OK without them.
Trump has already benefited from the grace of God in a shameful situation that could have thrown him down (pu$$ygate). He would be an absolute fool not to treat others with the same grace, and I don’t think he is inclined to be a fool.
You’re assuming these people have a rational reason for not voting for Trump.
They do not.
No. Waste of time, effort. We think that neverTrumpers, say, in OH, are about 5%.
Energy is much better spent on the “unaffiliated/undecideds.” Even in the bluest counties that went 2:1 Obama, we are getting 50/50 splits now (guarantees OH win). In FL, we think it will be much better.
Let em stew. They can join the Dems for the next four years.
I agree with all of those posters whose various comments reject the perhaps well intended suggestion that Trump reach out to Never Trumpers. Where is the gain in Trump wasting time on those with an agenda to destroy him and who will continue to undermine him after he is elected? The National Review and Weekly Standard are Vanity Press publications which were useful for Republicans early on but are now kept alive by and for the benefit of their anti America First benefactors. I cannot see how even one of these traitors would either switch their support to Trump or cause a single pro Hillary voter to suddenly decide to do the right thing for this country and vote for Donald Trump. Additionally, if Americans do not know by now the horror that awaits this country if the Clinton machine, and all the forces behind them, prevails in this election, then reaching out to a minority group of prominent traitors will not sway them one iota.
“One of the things that was so admirable about Reagan was his magnanimity.”
Reagan was far too big hearted and trusting. The vipers on the left AND right shook his hand, then stabbed him in the back at their earliest opportunity.
Do you remember the 1986 amnesty? The lying Dems promised Reagan they’d pass a bill to build a border fence if he signed the amnesty bill. He did, and they promptly forgot about their end of the bargain.
Reagan’s ‘magnaminity’ gave us the illegal invasion we suffer from today. At the very least, it opened the door to heightened illegal immigration.
The snakes who are opposing Trump now, can never be trusted. They will work to undermine him, just as surely as the snakes of yesteryear undermined Reagan.
Plus imagine the mainstream media headline: A desperate Trump, on the edge of defeat, begs Never-Trumpers...
The #NeverTrumpers are Hillary supporters that can go FOAD.
Exactly!
Supreme Court is job number one, and he’s already supplied a short list of potential justices. So they either don’t agree with his choices, don’t believe him, or have another agenda.
Standing by evil is hardly worthy of credit. When Nixon lied to us WE wanted him out. When the Clintons lie, RATs double down on their support.
No, stop projecting, i didn’t say that.
I said it is bad timing.
The never Trumpers don’t need to be coddled to get their support...They need to be destroyed...
