Anti-Trump Republicans to launch swing-state ad buy
Politico ^ | Aug 27, 2016 | Kyle Cheney

Posted on 08/27/2016 9:34:51 PM PDT by Ray76

Anti-Trump Republicans are preparing to launch a broadcast TV ad in a handful of swing-state suburbs urging Donald Trump to quit the presidential race so the party can replace him with a more electable nominee.

The ad, titled "Keep Your Word," features footage of Trump during the Republican primary in which he suggested he'd drop out if he saw his poll numbers decline.

The 30-second spot is marked for a limited run on broadcast networks in suburban Florida, Virginia, Ohio and Michigan, according to Regina Thomson, a Colorado Republican activist and leader of Free the Delegates, the organization that failed to stop Trump's nomination at last month's national convention.

This won’t stop Trump. It WILL however, infuriate his supporters and make them crawl over broken glass to vote for Trump.

Cruz turned out to be nothing but a waste of skin, posing as a Republican savior. Let us not be fooled again by such political douchebaggery. Go DT, bring it!

Their July quarterly report to the FEC shows they have $4,244 cash on hand.

Cruz has no shame. I cannot wait to vote against Calgary Ted in 2018.

These types should be ejected from the GOP and never hold any leadership role ever.

“I don’t know about you, but the look on her face reminds me of a woman who is sexually smitten.”

My first impression was that is the face of a woman with a completely vacant mind, someone who is so intellectually absent that she’s the perfect dupe for Cruz and any other NeverTrumper who needs a mindless, easily manipulated puppet whose strings they can pull and who they can hide behind.

A theoretical question (which has not come true by a long shot) is not a promise

"Number one, I'm not a masochist, and if I was dropping in the polls where I saw I wasn't going to win, why would I continue?"

Come the second week of November their political lives are over.

Turncoat backstabbers claiming to be Republicans but supporting Hillary Clinton, the ‘rat nominee.
Cruz is a deluded POS if he thinks he will “get it right in 2020”. He’s a dirty rat, a Quisling. I can’t stand looking at his rodent face.

They don’t have much money.

Nothing says “grass roots” movement like an inside the beltway mailing address. Makes sense they would be Cruzers. After all, his “grass roots” Senate campaign was financed by GOLDMAN SACHS. LOL.

I do sometimes wonder if Cruz was angling to become the GOP’s own answer to Bill Clinton.


Her look reminds me of the 1,000 yard stare of a zombie. She’s a brain dead cultist.

Well, based on the comments @ Politico, all the Hillary Supporters are on board with these ads. I also noticed KKK alt right gaining traction over there.

I got in a heated discussion with a former bern-out about the KKK Krap today. She is willfully ignorant, and defiant. I was hoping she’d go with Stein or Johnson, but she seems to be weakening on her #NeverHillary vow.

They are despicable. Aside from the fact that he's roughly tied in the polls, Hilliary Clinton is absolutely unfit to be President as well as representing the death nell of traditional America. She must not be elected!

I strongly encourage donations for Trump. Due to the Zero Economy I'm not exactly rolling in extra cash, but I'll be scraping the barrel to help put him over the top. Once he's in, I hope he goes RINO hunting!

Trump/Pence 2016!

“A more electable candidate.”

Right. The illegal alien Canadian greaseball with the piercing nasal voice like a dentist’s drill and the creepy fringey theology.
