“I would sooner vote for Josef Stalin than I would vote for Donald Trump,” said Mr. Boot, who expressed optimism that Mr. Trump could still be defeated. He added: “There is no way in hell I would ever vote for him. I would far more readily support Hillary Clinton, or Bloomberg if he ran.”

They went full moron now.

I voted third party in 2012 BECAUSE Mitt Romney was the Republican nominee. I definitely WON’T be voting third party FOR Mitt Romney in 2016. I still hope that Cruz wins the nomination. However, if Trump is the nominee, I will vote third party, just not for Mitt or his buddies.

In other words, Clinton supporters are looking for a way to help her win with less than 50% of the vote.

I think it is more likely the LAST GASP of a dying party, its agenda and the cabal that ran it all into the ground.

Trump has accomplished a hostile takeover of the GOP, from the base upwards.

The “elite” realize it’s too late to save their sinking ship. Hilarious!!!

They are trying everything they can to try to make Trump supporters think they can’t win. They are trying to convince us that the RNC will change the rules so Trump can’t win at the convention. And now they are trying to make us think that if we vote Trump they will go 3rd party and throw the election to Hillary.

Anything to try to keep us from voting for Trump. But we are voting for Trump. They won’t change the rules, because Trump has too much support. And they won’t go thrid party, because they won’t draw that much vote and will be shown to be irrelevant.

They are irrelevant and this is just an empty bluff.

The GOP got everyone to sign a fricken contract to support the elected nominee. Now they want a third party? Am I misinterpreting something here?

I think it was just Trump that had to do that, wasn’t it? The rest of the Republican field was free to back the marxist candidate selected by the Democrats.

And now that Hillary is rolling along towards securing the nomination, the pan-handler Republicans feel that they will hear some coins dropping in their pans if she becomes president.

They are trying to deny the American citizens the ability to retain the rule of law and our country.

We must have a President that sides with us to do that.

We have been forced to vote for amnesty candidates since the last amnesty.

Keeping The Cheap Labor Express running is what is most important to the RNC/GOP.

They will burn the party to the ground before they will let us keep our country.

“Among religious conservatives, too, anxiety about Mr. Trump is spreading. Russell Moore, head of the political arm of the Southern Baptist Convention, said he had been deluged by evangelicals asking his guidance on what to do in a race between Mr. Trump and Mrs. Clinton.”

As a Southern Baptist myself, I am calling out Moore as a lying, amnesty pimping POS.

The present head of the Southern Baptist Convention has already endorsed Trump.

No. It is not a joke.

The goal here is to Trump out of the White House.

He is not a politician. He wouldn't understand all the little deals or how the game is played.

These people are complete, utter morons.


These people are completely, utterly dangerous. Sen. Sasse is connected to Romney. This won’t end well.

It's called "breach of contract", something professional politicians and campaign consultants are routinely good at.
