A group of 50 conservative foreign policy elites and veteran national security officials of prior Republican administrations recently wrote an open letter denouncing Republican presidential nominee Donald Trump.
They cited especially his lack of character and moral authority -- and his "little understanding of America's national interests." Particularly bothersome, they wrote, is Trump's inability "to separate truth from falsehood."
The letter stated that Trump's one-year campaign of blustery rhetoric suggests he could be as reckless in deed in the White House as he has been in word on the campaign trail.
Is there a like group of past Democratic wise men and women who can commensurately "police their own" and so warn us about Democratic candidate Hillary Clinton?
Unlike Trump, Clinton already has an actual political record as a former U.S. senator and secretary of state.
If there were such a group, the heart of their letter might read something like the following:

They are not conservatives, they are New World Order Socialists who support George Soros open borders.
More Townhall crap to repeat ad infinitum the AntiTrump traitors.
Um, people don’t like getting killed, so....
That’s right. They’ve been outed as the globalists that they are and always were.

“Democrat—wise men and women” - oxymoron

Democrats only care about party and power. Nothing else.
We need another “Cowboy” in the White House!
Very well said, it is indeed an oxymoron as there is no such thing as wise men and women democrats

I’m sorry maybe you misunderstood my post, they are not conservatives by the very fact they signed the letter, it means they support the globalist agenda aka socialism
Disgruntled Bushbots.
I didn’t misunderstand it. I was merely keeping the names current for the skunks associated with the letters. I certainly don’t consider them conservatives - more like self-gratifying puffed up opportunists.
I’ve recently started going through that list and seeing what these skunks are up to now. As one would expect, they have their fingers in international arenas or lobbyism or government subterfuge in one way or another.
GOPe I will vote for Trump and leave the rest of my ballot blank.
This in not only true. It is also factual.
“More Townhall crap to repeat ad infinitum the AntiTrump traitors.”
You must have not read the article. Trump should use it as the basis for his stump speech.
Have you?
