Donald J. Trump Statement on Politically Motivated Letter
Trump-Pence ^ | August 8 2016 | Donald J Trump

Posted on 08/09/2016 5:07:39 AM PDT by euram

“The names on this letter are the ones the American people should look to for answers on why the world is a mess, and we thank them for coming forward so everyone in the country knows who deserves the blame for making the world such a dangerous place. They are nothing more than the failed Washington elite looking to hold onto their power, and it’s time they are held accountable for their actions.

These insiders – along with Hillary Clinton – are the owners of the disastrous decisions to invade Iraq, allow Americans to die in Benghazi, and they are the ones who allowed the rise of ISIS. Yet despite these failures, they think they are entitled to use their favor trading to land taxpayer-funded government contracts and speaking fees. It’s time we put our foot down and declare that their gravy train is over: no longer will Crooked Hillary Clinton and the other disasters in Washington get rich at our expense.

Instead, I offer a better vision for our country and our foreign policy – one that is not run by a ruling family dynasty. It's an America first vision that stands up to foreign dictators instead of taking money from them, seeks peace over war, rebuilds our military, and makes other countries pay their fair share for their protection. Together, we will break up the rigged system in Washington, make America safe again, and we will Make America Great Again.”

I think it would be incredibly naive to think that infiltration of the GOP hasn’t been a goal and hasn’t been accomplished.

Infiltrators saw the opportunity when Reagan arrived on scene as a former democrat.

Trump needs to run against the ‘corrupt system.’

Agreed, be the outsider, people don't identify with parties as much anymore. Run against the broken system, use examples and stats.

Michael Chertoff was in charge of the Whitewater investigation.

Unbelievable.

Dick Morris was on some obscure radio show last week and made the specific point that the Don needs to control the news cycles with exactly this sort of thing. Make them answer for RINOism, and let them know the party didn't leave them, the GOPe left the party. Shit put the Fonz + sharktank in half-tone as the background on the paper stock!

>>I think I have an idea what Patton would have done with the likes of one of these NeverTrumpers if he’d heard that. Probably would have involved one of his pearl-handled pistols. Oh, I’m sorry - was that my outside voice?

Don’t be sorry. My exact thoughts were that I hope I’m the one who finds this guy hiding in a hole when the revolution begins.

I don’t recognize a single signatory on the letter...should have a D or R after their names - not that it matters much at this point.

Just assume a "U" for "Uniparty".

Unfortunately, the news is leading with the 50 on the letter. Trump is getting swamped by negative stories every day. While Hillary just putters along, doing nothing.

Really sad time for our country.

It is weird neither CNN’s nor NYT’s version of the letters have a date on the document. One letter doesn’t have the signatures.

They say this new letter is “similar” to the letter released in th primary. I think its the same, nothing new.

Trump sure didn’t help with his comments today. He’s not filtered by “political correctness” but that doesn’t make sanction of assassination a good thing. The MSM will ride this out for weeks.

Bad as Ryan, McCain, Romney, Cheney, GWB were, they had some political understanding that left them less open to attack. Trump is now <40% and sliding. Maybe he could ally with one of the GOP to learn Diplomacy 101.

This is our last chance to fix our ailing land. If we miss this boat, there will not be another.

Trump is our last peaceful chance to change Washington and fix our land. If Trump is taken down by the liberals and the GOPe, the next uprising will be violent, I'm afraid.
