Fake Republicans for Hillary
Frontpage ^ | August 5, 2016 | Daniel Greenfield

The media is gleefully touting the defection of Republicans to the Hillary camp. In reality, the Republicans who are defecting were never Republicans at all.

Take Congressman Richard Hanna. Please.

Hanna has announced that he’ll be backing Hillary Clinton. This isn’t so much a change as an admission.

Hanna is a retiring lame duck whose Republican credentials are up there with those of fellow Hillary endorsee Michael Bloomberg. Both men are New York politicians who ran as Republicans because of pure political opportunism. No one seriously believed that Bloomberg was a Republican.

One of the many great things Trump has accomplished has been to expose the self-described Republicans who were Clinton supporters.

RINOS: We can help you get elected but we won’t work with you. We need your butt in the seat if the district is blue but that’s all. When we get tired of your BS we’ll even say thanks after you lose.

Funny thing: We can take them out easy when November comes around whenever there are REAL Democrats to vote for.

When safely ensconced in their chair what we need is a Profile in Courage from time to time. Arlen Specter even did it once with the Clarence Thomas vote.

I am less worried about “Fake Republicans for Hillary” than about “Fake Democrats for Donald.”

Voting in the primary to insure the “enemy” runs the worst candidate possible in November?? Remember Rush’s “Operation Chaos” — backfired and we got Obama in 2008.

I’m not worried about either one.

But I just want to remind everyone, that this election will be the single most important in anyone’s life.

Vote. Register, and vote. Vote.

Republicans voting for Hillary would be like democrats voting for W. It just wouldn’t happen. No Republican, of sound mind, could even think about voting for Herself. A few might opt to not vote at all but none would vote for her.

There are many people who describe themselves as Republicans and conservatives who are supporting Clinton.

One of the many great things Trump has done has been to expose these people.
