Mark Steyn: Hillary Presidency Will Make US 'Banana Republic'
Newsmax ^ | May 16,2016 | By Greg Richter

Conservative columnist Mark Steyn on Monday said that "nominal Republicans" who say they will vote for Democrat Hillary Clinton over presumptive Republican nominee Donald Trump for president are acting "insane."

Steyn, guest hosting on "The Rush Limbaugh Show," was especially disappointed with two of his friends, satirist P.J. O'Rourke and Max Boot, who was Steyn's editor at The Wall Street Journal.

The two have said they would vote for Clinton instead of Trump over foreign policy issues.

"Hillary is the embodiment of corruption and, therefore, the death of the republic," Steyn said.

"To decide for someone on the take from Saudi princes, someone's whose managed to deliver 20 percent of U.S. uranium into control of the Russians, someone whose husband has been credibly accused of rape and flies around with a known pedophile, and yet Hillary to these guys is who they’re going to be supporting in November Calling the whole thing "insane," Steyn said, "The Hillary Rodham Clinton presidency will be the death of the republic and the complete descent into banana republic status.

ANYONE who votes for Hillary Clinton is not now, nor have they ever been, a conservative. Period.

If she wins, the USA will be obsolete, forever gone. She has said she kill the 2A. PC has all but destroyed the 1A.

I will disavow any friends who vote for this evil bitch. I want no association with anyone, except work I guess, that would vote for this evil woman.

If I date a girl and find out she voted for this wench, I will dump her faster than you can say bye!

To me, choosing between someone who has been shown to be evil (Benghazi, Nixon, Rose Law firm records, for example) and someone ALLEGED (by the other party) to be evil, is an easy choice.

Dump the Frump.

I hate to disagree with Mark Steyn but he is wrong. We don't grow nearly enough bananas to hit that high level.

Eight years too late Mr. Steyn. Job has already been accomplished. Barry O has finished that job. The transformation started back in the 1990s.

Hillary can only do maintain what others before here started. A little bit like Monroe and J.Q Adams.
But I am sure she will stay the course.
If she is not indicted.
If she stays in the race.
If she is elected.

The two have said they would vote for Clinton instead of Trump over foreign policy issues.

Does "foreign policy issues" include assassinating a head of state and thereby plunging an entire global region into a vast terrorism war?

Hey P.J. O'Rourke and Max Boot, I'm talking to youze. What's she got on you?
