Mike Lee to Donald Trump: Step Aside

1:28 AM, Oct 08, 2016 | By John McCormack

Following the release of a 2005 video in which Donald Trump made obscene comments about how he gropes women and might commit adultery, Utah senator Mike Lee called on Trump to step aside so that someone else could challenge Hillary Clinton.

"You yourself, sir, Mr. Trump, have stated repeatedly that the goal, the objective, has got to be to defeat Hillary Clinton in November. I couldn't agree more. It is for precisely that reason, Mr. Trump, that I respectfully ask you, with all do respect, that you step aside. Step down. Allow someone else to carry the banner of these principles,"

Whore-aldo Rivera on Fox this morning said that Trump needs to drop out because he is 'Grotesque'

Right.

This is another attack on citizens from the “betters”.

Lee considers anyone outside the beltway as “Deplorables”

this is not an attack on Trump, this is really an attack on the USA.

What the Hell is wrong with Utah?

Utah is spectacularly beautiful, but I would never live anywhere in the state--and it's not because of the cold winters.

Notice that all three, Lee, Governor Herbert, and Chaffez, are Mormons. I have little use for them, Mormons, because most always think they are holier than thou. They can stick their piety where the sun don’t shine as far as I am concerned.

“They listened to Stabby the Clown?”

Effectively, yes. Stabby the Clown is a fair example of their mindset, perception and leadership.

Mike Lee....you just exited the GOP, and do not even know it!

Hey when you are finished kicking all of us conservatives out, you can rename it the Grand Republican Old Party.

>What the Hell is wrong with Utah?

It’s full of Mormons bitter that Romney failed. Instead blaming themselves they blame non Mormons in the GOP.


I suspect Lee and the others did not even bother to look at the video to understand that it was HOT MIC audio tape, taped inside a van—not an interview...It was crude, but it was locker room talk and the other 6 men were not complaining—they weer laughing; and egging Trump on...

Utah is full of Mormons...their religion demands abstinence until marriage and modesty==no bared shoulders for women, so they find this appalling.

Wish they would find appalling the fact that this unauthorized video was “acquired by WAPO” from some source—perhaps Billie Bush???

I wish they would realize this is much like the set up of Romney with birth control thru Stephanopolis’s odd comment about birth control (up to that point a non-issue) at the end of an interview with Romney.

The attack campaign on Trump was all planned==teed up with Hillary’s oddly-timed insertion of the Miss Universe issue at the end of the first debate—then a prepared attack campaign with interviews, video, articles, etc. that Trump is mean and hates women until her true identity was unearthed here on the Internet...(Keep Internet Free?)

Yeah, I think the cult of Joseph Smith probably has quite the dangerous grip out there, too.

"Why is this bastard not demanding that Hillary step aside?"

Isn't it funny. Nobody is criticizing Hellary. Can somebody ask one of those POS why has no one from the So called "other party" attached the Demorat?

Mike Lee is a real disappointment. I thought he was one of the few people in the political office who had the best interest of the country at heart. It turns out he is a political hack and no better than Harry Reid, Mitt Romney, or George Bush
