Some yes, some no. We will need every vote we can get, though.

I hope that these comments are just venting and not how anti-Hillary partisans would actually respond to a (possibly) #NeverTrump conservative.

I was as heart broken and astonished as Romney himself when he lost. He might have made a good Preslident, but he let decorum, scrupulosity and timidity restrain any effective assault on Obama. Trump has much more courage, and it is contagious.

Let’s just cut the crap and say it as is. These NeverTrump Republicans are in reality Democrats who’ve infiltrated the GOP and Trump has smoked them out of hiding. Anyone who can say they would vote for a Benedict Arnold sellout traitor times a thousand like Hillary Clinton is no Republican, let alone a conservative. They’ve nearly succeeded in destroying the GOP, but Trump is standing in the way.

Mitt’s donors are mad at Trump but don’t seem to mind Mitt tanked in 2012.

They aren’t qualified to run a lemonade stand much less than know what candidate would give them a return on their investment.

And they’ve learned nothing since and have forgotten everything.

By the way, it sticks in their craw Trump won without them.

Obviously the Republican donor class is just like the Democrat donor class in that they are not paying enough taxes. They should pay taxes for all of the money they are making from cheap Mexican labor. Since “they are working with the Democrats to get things done” they should pay more taxes for the money it is costing our treasury. And while they are at it they can pay the money that needs to be put up for a conservative leaning media that they arenotinvesting. All we accomplished over the last thirty years was to lower their taxes and this happens. Screw them take taxes and jam straight up their behind.

Jeez. When I read your comment what my mind saw was:

That’s okay, because I compare Meg Whitman to a whore who does dog sex parties.

Must be because its getting dark (I mean in America, not just outside).

The people at Romney’s confab have lived through nearly seven and a half years of Obama. They know Mrs. Clinton would be more of the same. They know it’s down to Mrs. Clinton or Trump. And they are either flaying Ryan for endorsing Trump or, by silence, condoning that flaying.

They are a lost cause.

So, basically, they are pissed because they were not allowed to purchase the Presidency?

Ana Navarro, a Republican contributor and ubiquitous cable news personality, called Trump a “racist” and a “vulgarian and a pig who has made disgusting comments about women for years.” But bill clinton gets a pass, right bitches?

She’s doubly pissed because this is the second time she has spent a lot of money and failed to purchase the position.

I would do your comment one better (or worse): I think Hillary would be worse than Obama. Because it would be entirely reasonable for her, if elected, to think, “These voters elected me EVEN AFTER 8 years of Obama sleaze and stagnation?? ALL RIGHT — let’s try going even further left!!”

For me, it’s mostly about the federal courts. I cannot tolerate any of the Dems (who could be nominated, that is) picking judges who will sit for 40 years, including 3-4 on SCOTUS. Not a big Trump fan, but that right there is the issue for me.

Romney had to WORK to try and beat the “first black president” from serving a second term...He refused to do what it was going to take...Without the drive and work ethic to do that, I doubt he would’ve been very good at the job anyway....

I would think that this disqualifies Ryan to be Speaker of the House. What the heck is he doing at a strategy meeting for anarchists?

Yeah, anarchists. What other term describes to those who conspire to overthrow the will of the voters?

These rich elitists don’t number very many...

It’s the patriotic, working, real Americans who will put Trump in office...The people who realize what has happened to the country and their own lives...The elitists are only concerned with their ability to “buy” politicians...They know they cannot do that with Trump...

It’s us, the regular Americans, not the elitists...

Are these the same people who were in the room in his famous “We don’t care about appealing to the poor, it’s a waste of time”

Well look at that. Trump appealed to the poor - ALL OF US. Look at what happened.

How do you get them in the fold?

Why would we want to get them into the fold? A better goal would be to remove every dang one of them from any access to power or persuasion!

“I would love to have a list of those who attended the Romney meeting”.

Prolly would find a lot of them on Bilderburger guest list.

It’s certainly possible that Mrs. Clinton could be worse than Obama. Try to imagine the mindset of a politically informed person [they would not be at Romney’s shindig if they weren’t politically active] who compares that potential to Trump, and opts for Mrs. Clinton.

This is the election cycle that laid the Establishment and Globalists bare, for all the world to see.
