Never mind Trump, GOP uniting under banner: 'Never Hillary'

Donald Trump’s best ally in winning over skeptical Republicans is turning out to be Hillary Clinton.

Having overcome a multimillion-dollar “Never Trump” campaign aimed at blocking him from the Republican nomination, he’s now benefiting from a wave of GOP donors, party leaders, voters and conservative groups that are uniting under a new banner: “Never Hillary.”

“Nothing unites Republicans better than a Clinton,” says Scott Reed, a political strategist for the U.S. Chamber of Commerce who has advised previous GOP campaigns. While Reed says there remain “many unknowns” about Trump, he adds that “the knowns about Hillary are very powerful motivators to Republicans.”

Thanks to Republicans’ deep disdain for the likely Democratic nominee, Trump is piling up those kinds of lukewarm GOP endorsements. …

One of the reasons Trump is so popular is because of you, Scott.

The Cheap Labor Express has been able to nominate an amnesty candidate in every election since the last amnesty.
If a billionaire not beholden to them had not stepped up, we would be voting for another amnesty candidate this time.

Every person who’s been advocating for the dissolution of the country through illegal alien inundation deserves to be banished politically.
The list is long.

Hillary and Bernie will go to the convention. Hillary will prevail. If she dropped out before the convention, Bernie would get the nomination.

Shortly after the convention Hillary will drop out do to “health problems”. Obama will pardon Hillary for whatever wrong doing she is being investigated for. Hillary’s running mate, Biden will go to the top of the ticket. Biden will recruit Warren to be his running mate.

Big mistake to put all our eggs in one basket with “Never Hillary!” as our only strategy, because Clinton’s prospects are growing dimmer by the day. It is time instead to get behind our nominee against any Democrat they decide to run. We need to stop letting Democrats and GOPe pussies define our nominee. Donald Trump is the only candidate with the attitude and thick skin needed to preside over this nation for the next four critical years.

A plausible scenario, for sure. Obama simply doesn't want the Clinton's back in the White House, and he's in complete control.

Dems still lose to Trump. Positive vision versus continued division. Landslide.

Trump has a way of growing on you. I voted for Cruz in the primary (never again) and kept listen and thinking. I always like what he said but didn’t like the way he said it. I couldn’t see that kind of talk in the WH. But then I began to realize he couldn’t have accomplished all he has without good leadership skills, #1. And #2, Washington must be cleaned up and the best hope for the world is going down the tubes. Washington must change and it will take a non-traditional leader like Trump to get the job done. A radical change is needed and Trump is the only hope we have.
