Donors for Bush, Kasich and Christie Are Turning to Clinton More Than to Trump [RINOS BACK CLINTON]
NY Times ^ | August 9, 2016 | Adam Pearce

People who donated to establishment Republican candidates in the primary season are more likely to give money to Hillary Clinton, the Democratic nominee, than to their own party’s candidate, Donald J. Trump.

In a typical election year, donors whose candidates have dropped out of the race funnel additional contributions to another candidate in the same party.

But this presidential election is different. Of the donors who gave at least $200 to Jeb Bush, Gov. John Kasich, Gov. Chris Christie or Senator Lindsey Graham in the Republican primaries, more of them have also contributed to Mrs. Clinton than to Mr. Trump, according to Federal Election Commission filings through June.

They won’t be laughing if Trump loses, because his voters will be saying “Adios, Mofos” to the GOP.

You got that right! I will never, ever go back to registering as an “R” after I switch to “I” after this election.

This has to be expected. Their good old boy, big money gig in the District of Corruption is being threatened. It’s easy to be a Trump supporter if you think of it this way. It’s the Washington Big Money Politicians vs. the American Taxpayers.

So, isn’t this what we’ve been saying?

Rinos are Dems. Same people. Putting an R in front of your name doesn’t change anything.

What? The DNC gives away its donor list? I think this is more MSM BS.

The more one can be bought, the more one will get. Its all part of the game played in DC. Its what I refer to as the DC Golden Goose. No one wants to kill it. Too many are on the receiving end of the eggs.

Hillary would be the sixth term of the Clinton-Bush Dynasty.

We now have a fair race, to win.

The GOPe has joined with the democrats, to represent the old fashioned, mismanagement of America.

Both sides, are sold out to globalists. BIG TIME.

Trump is for Americans. America. American companies, making things in America once again.

And not so much, for sending American troops around the world at every single excuse whichever party is in power, thinks up at the moment.

This is a real decision. The establishment, which is so terribly mismanaging America.

Or the new guard.

I think that is what we are looking at, this time around.

So be it.

Go Donald.

If Trump loses, there may be no GOP left for them.

If Trump starts a new party, and the size of the GOP shrinks, their only chance to stay relevant would be to join the Rats.

The voters have already rejected the GOP. The number of GOP voters is already highly exaggerated this year because there is a real candidate - a choice - available. If Trump loses, the GOP loses, likely permanently, well in excess of 10 million votes in the aftermath. These are votes that may well simply disappear (they won’t go to Democrats, merely disappear from the system due to non-participation)never to reappear again in our lifetime.

It will not be at all difficult to give up on the American political system and simply disappear into the political underground - and millions will take that route as the system has nothing for them, nothing at all.

It’s all about the money. These SLOBS have sold out America for money.

Campaign for TRUMP/PENCE like you’ve never campaigned before. Write letters, send emails, put up (and guard) signs, and most importantly PRAY for America.

Nothing is impossible for the LORD.

I guarantee there will be a new party as a result, and the GOP will fade into obscurity.

Its very simple.
ALL THE CORRUPTOIDS who want to RIP US OFF through government contracts (the GOP-E) and government ‘benefits’ (the D party base)..... are united in wanting/needing a CORRUPTOID in charge (President).

They’re all afraid that Donald Trump just might be an honest person who really does want to clean out the stinking Aegean Stables of WashingtonDC.

I don’t know if Trump can win, what with all these traitorous GOP=E defections and the Pravda mass media against him. BUT AT LEAST his candidacy is clarifying for all the world to see..... (including Yours Truly, who did not fully grasp it) just how corrupt the GOP=E truly is...............
