I'll Take Hillary Clinton Over Donald Trump (Another Traitor)
The Federalist ^ | February 24, 2016 | Tom Nichols

Posted on 02/25/2016 3:50:24 AM PST by C19fan

Donald Trump could end up being the Republican nominee, and the idea fills many conservatives (like me) with despair. By “conservatives,” I mean actual conservatives, the people who believe in limited government, a strong national defense, American federalism, and who reject the nanny state in all of its smothering incarnations. Put another way, I mean: people who are not liberals, like Donald Trump.

Where were these people when Bush the Younger was trashing conservatism resulting in Obama, a Democrat super majority Senate, and control of the House? The good thing about this episode is one can compile a list of all the people we can give the middle finger to when they tell us we have to hold our noses and vote for the GOPe candidate. The only thing I see is record setting voting in the GOP primary so far and Trump winning across all demographic groups.

Why should I give a rat’s ass about this guy’s opinion?

He calls himself a conservative and says he’ll vote for Hillary? Ok.

See, another “CONSERVATIVE” prefer Hillary over “Liberal” Trump. Really? Either Trump is left of Hillary or those “Conservative” pundits were never Conservatives from the start

Today Glenn Beck said Obama was better than Trump. I had to laugh at that one. Basically Trump is more left than Marxist Obama. Seriously?!

There is NO WAY a true conservative could EVER vote for the she-devil.

Anyone on the right who would even think of voting for Hillary Clinton after all of her sordid history should be put in stocks in the public square. The one marked “Fake Conservative”.

But then, that’s just me.

I am no fan of Trump, and think he’ll probably be a disaster as president, but at least there’s a chance I’m wrong. With Hillary!, there is no chance.

IF TRUMP WAS AS ‘ANTI CONSERVATIVE’ AS THEY SAY, THE LIBTARDS WOULD NOT BE FIGHTING SO HARD AGAINST HIM

“people who are not liberals, like Donald Trump.”

Maybe if the comma wasnt there I would have read that with the meaning he intended.

With Trump its 50-50. He’s a wildcard, maybe he’s a Liberal so at worst he be like Obama, but if he’s a Conservative and actually deliver on all his promises, then he’s the best Conservative on the field

CRUZ is my candidate even Rubio and last Trump.
The nation would do well with Cruz, okay with Rubio, we would survive Trump.

Our nation would not survive as a Free Republic if we have eight years of Clinton. It is that simple. The future of the Republic hangs in the balance of this next election.

More:

Morally unmoored, emotionally unstable, a crony capitalist of the worst kind, Trump will be every bit as liberal as Hillary - perhaps more so, given his statements over the years. He is by reflex and instinct a New York Democrat whose formal party affiliation is negotiable, as is everything about him. He has little commitment to anything but himself and his "deals," none of which will work in favor of conservatives or their priorities.

His judicial appointments will likely be liberal friends from New York. His Great Wall of Mexico will never be built, and employers will go right on hiring cheap labor and outsourcing jobs, just as Trump does with his made-in-Mexico suits. His China Smoot-Hawley Tariff will never be implemented. His administration, led by a vulgar, aging man-child who is firmly pro-abortion, who jokes about having sex with his daughter, and brags about his wealth, will hurt the poorest and most vulnerable among us - including the unborn.

His fans will excuse him, as they do now, but they have short attention spans and will vanish in later midterm elections and future presidential contests. His white nationalist supporters, clinging to him like lice in the fur of an angry chimp, will shake their fists along with him for a time, until they too eventually slink away. By 2020, his core constituency will be a tiny sliver of what's left of the white working class, pathetically standing at the gates of empty factories they thought Trump would re-open.

If DJT wins the nomoination there are no good choices ...

Any American who votes for Hillary is a traitor.

And I detest Trump.

Unbelievable. Where do these people come from? Why in the world would anyone who claims to be a conservative (Federalist?) cast a vote for a self-proclaimed, proud Alinskyite-socialist? All Hillary will do is finish the job Obama started. Trump may not be the ideal candidate for those who lean conservative, but he’s no socialist who worships at the feet of Saul Alinsky.

They did but many didn’t follow the advice. Now the reverse is happening.
