Yes, you read that correctly.
Democrat candidate for President Jim Webb has endorsed Donald Trump for President, not Hillary.

There are plenty of moderate Democrats that are sick of outsourcing America’s prosperity to the cheapest 3rd world bidder.
That being said, people need to understand what an “endorsement” actually is.
Jim Webb did not “endorse” Trump. And endorsement between politicians actually means something. It’s coordinated. In most cases, it is asked for, and then given publicly at a joint event, or there are joint statements released.
Saying “I’d vote for Trump over Clinton” is not a political endorsement. It’s a preference.
A perfect example of this confusion was back in January, when Phyllis Schlafly spoke very favorably about Trump. So many inaccurate, no-standards-having s**t blogs and “news” sites spewed out headlines about her “endorsing” Trump, that when she did actually endorse him, people were confused because they thought it was old news. Also, maybe Cruzlims ran around FR saying that Bob Dole “endorsed” Trump when he had done no such thing (he endorsed Jeb for pretty much the entirety of his campaign). And I’m sure those same Cruzlims will now run around blasting Trump for having the “endorsement” of Jim Webb, and there will be a significant bunch of idiots submitting FLASHBACK links of all of his past positions, all for nothing.
Sorry to rant, but people failing to understand the significance of what “endorsement” actually means is pretty damn irritating.
More evidence Trump is really a Dim? Evidence how far left the they have gone? Evidence Trump is like George W. Bush who was endorsed by Ed Koch? All 3?
You try and take on the moderators here. See how far you get!
Not bad just not 50.1 percent we need to win.
As a military man Webb is sickened by the neocons. Hillary Clinton is a neocon.
They are operatives within the Republican Party as well and they are anti-Trump.
Wondered why he hasn’t switched parties before now
Funny... Trump haters here are still claiming that Jimmy Carter and Harry Reid “endorsed” Trump
Well, go to the link, watch the video, and near the end judge for yourself it it sounds like he’s endorsing Trump
That is the lesson here.

Not bad, just incapable of electing a president on its own.
And, he is a man you can trust.
You mean change it back.
Ok
The article says he’ll vote for Trump over Hillary.
In the actual interview he’s more vague
oh yeah. he’s Macbeth. Or Hamlet. Who the hell knows lol.
I read them a long time ago.
Right now I wish Jim Webb would jump back into the race. The only candidate on either side of the isle to have served in a combat role in the US Armed Forces during a time of war.
RINOs endorsing Cruz: BAD
Democrats endorsing Trump: GOOD
I watched that first Dem debate and KNEW he was the only sane one on that stage. I also then knew he had less than a zero percent chance.
Jim Webb has a bit more patriotism flowing in his blood than Hilda, that is for sure.
