Fed up with Trump, a GOP women's PAC is backing Dems in two key Michigan races (Super Barf Alert)
Detroit Metro Times ^ | Oct 17, 2018 | Violet Ikonomova

A political action committee run by Republican women opposed to Donald Trump is getting involved in Michigan's most competitive Congressional races — and supporting the Democrat candidates.

Republican Women for Progress PAC tells Metro Times it has taken out $50,000 television ad buys in Michigan's 11th and 8th Congressional District races. Both races feature a moderate Democrat against a Trump-aligned Republican. In MI-11, Democrat Haley Stevens is up against Republican Lena Epstein, the former Michigan chair for the Trump campaign. In MI-08, Elissa Slotkin is trying to unseat incumbent Rep. Mike Bishop.

I suspect that there’s no one to the right of Charlie Dent that these women would support, but in all likelihood, it’s probably just a group of hardcore leftists using the Republican label to grab attention.

“Astroturf.”

One great thing about Trump is that it’s exposed the traitorous jerks who pretended to be conservative. In this case, someone else has commented that the only donor is a Dem.. not shocking that they are still trying to astroturf things like this

Probably all you need to know.

Jennifer Pierotti Lim is the co-founder of Republican Women for Progress (RWFP) and was previously the founder of Republican Women for Hillary (RWFH).

The Detroit Metro Times is a free, weekly "alternative" rag that pumps out #FakeNews. So in that regard it's even worse than the garbage some use as sources.

Another phony so-called “GOP” group attempting to get some “moderate” GOP women to turn on their party and vote for a Liberal Dim.

When Trump announce in 2015? my Maryland girlfriend was against him. She thought he was “crass”.

Fast forward to now and she is vociferous in being PRO-TRUMP!

She is sick and tired of the MSM beating him up day-after-day. She loves the economy and likes his no bullshit style of talking.

She has gone from carefully selecting each candidate on the ticket to wanting me to mark her ballot for her straight Republican to take with her on Tuesday.

She’s pissed and has gone from watching the Today Show to FoxNews every morning.
