Speak out: Republican leaders will vote for Trump
Chicago Tribune ^ | Oct. 26, 2016 | Readers' Opinion

Posted on 10/26/2016 1:53:35 PM PDT by Innovative

Staying true to their party: All these bigwig Republicans who say they won't support Donald Trump will have two choices when they walk into the voting booth next month. They can vote for Hillary Clinton or Donald Trump. You know as well as I do that they will vote for the one who halfway represents their party. They will pull the lever for Trump. All this hogwash is just political nonsense. They don't want anyone to think they will vote for Trump, but they will. The only alternative is to vote for her.

They better all vote for Trump, or they should publically acknowledge that they are Democrats, resign their positions and run at the next election as Dem candidates.

After the way these ‘down ticket’ clowns have treated our Candidate, no way did I vote for any down ticket idiots...nope, I did not vote for Mike Lee, Mia Love, or the Gov. of Utah Gary Herbert...

You can’t stand with our candidate, you don’t get our vote!!!

[They better all vote for Trump]

They will be accountable to ALMIGHTY GOD for their vote. The candidates for POTUS are polar opposites.

Like it or not, “Republican Leaders” get more than one vote. Many “republican followers” (us little people) pay attention to the “leader”. Independents pay attention to the “leader”. If the leader endorses or even publicly supports a candidate it results in votes for the candidate. If the leader say “vote your conscience” or just stays silent, that loses votes. So many of these leaders have already voted against Trump in that they literally caused people to not vote for Trump and some to vote for Hillary.

Either get out of “leadership” (find a real job) or support your party and your party’s voters. My R senate candidate is not getting my vote unless I hear a VERY strong endorsement soon - which doesn’t seem likely since he avoids saying anything Trump.

They may vote for Trump, however, their actions of not publicly supporting Trump has negative consequences affecting Trump, and the party. If they don't understand, this they are fools.

We know McCain, Graham, Romney, Cruz and Kasich are fools; while Ryan is just a globalist traitor like The Beast.

This ain’t rocket science. By not publically acknowledging their support for Trump, by default, they are acknowledging that they are democrats.

There will be no next election if Donald Trump doesn’t win.

The POTUS, Hillary Clinton, DOJ, State Department, John Podesta all colluding, crimes have been committed - Espionage Act, violations of the Constitution, proof of voter fraud....NO ONE is doing anything - not the Senate, not Congress. Who has sworn to defend the Constitution from enemies foreign and domestic? Who has violated that oath? Who is holding any of these people to the law?

Does anyone here believe it may already be too late? What is to stop any of these thugs from refusing to stand down if Hillary does lose? This is no game - have we already gone past the point of no return? Does anyone else not see this? There is zippo accountability for anyone here. Press suppresses the truth, we have become Communist Russia.

Kasich is the most popular Democrat of all, a mailman’s son.

I hope you did not deserving conservatives in the down ballot. I would never skip the whole down ballot myself, but I did skip Cornyn in 2014.

And to think that these ‘leaders’ FORCED Trump to sign a pledge to support the nominee if he did not win the primary.

They are bastards of the highest order. I am talking to you Ryan and Turtle Mcconnell.

>They will be accountable to ALMIGHTY GOD for their vote.<

.
Accountability for one’s action is something that politicians cannot comprehend and ALMIGHTY GOD may not be the ONE they associate with in their conscience.

I wrote my GOPe congress person today and excoriated them for supporting hillary’s SCOTUS nominees and said— You lose either way. If Trump wins, you are nothing. If Trump loses you are to blame and you will wear that in your short remaining career.
Now just a word about Kelly Ayotte in the New Hampshire Senate race— GO TO HELL!!

Push for gay candidates: Donald Trump and Bill Clinton will take the allegations of being womanizers to their graves. It's just like when the late president John F. Kennedy's reputation was tarnished when his sexual escapades were exposed. This is why America should seek more gay candidates for high office. Their opportunities for promiscuity are much more limited.

......LOL?

"They will pull the lever for Trump."

I sure as heck wouldn't bet on that.!!

I would almost bet a dime against a donut that the likes of McPain and McCommie and that other shmuck (can't think of his name right now) voted for the obummer in the last election... After all, they seem to always take the liberal path...

Politicians are like slot machines...you put your nickel in and once in a while you get a little something back... But if you want to play...you got to pay...

Like the Chinese man said..."no tickie no washie"

MHO....
