Wallace: SoCons Aside, Republicans Should Consider Supporting Hillary
NewsBusters ^ | Mark Finkelstein

Posted on 03/21/2016 6:05:40 AM PDT by governsleastgovernsbest

Talk about your Hobson's Choice . . . on today's Morning Joe, Nicolle Wallace, citing GOP consultants, suggested that--other than social conservatives--Republicans concerned with foreign policy should consider supporting Hillary Clinton over Donald Trump. Hillary supporter Harold Ford, Jr. could be heard chiming in with a "well said."

Wallace was echoing the argument laid out by Joe Scarborough: that on a range of issues from foreign intervention to Israel, taxing the rich to breaking up the banks, Clinton's positions are closer to those of the GOP establishment than Trump's. But Joe, Nicolle and those Republican consultants are forgetting one overriding concern . . .

Nicolle Wallace is an idiot, she is so stupid she got thrown off The View. Anyone that thinks Hillary over sight of US foreign policy was a good think (Egypt, Libya, Syria, Iraq, Yemen) it too stupid to vote.

The argument goes:

Trump is no true conservative!!
So vote for Hillary to stop him!

Will no one rid us of these overpaid overhyped “ political strategists”?
Or at least remind us of which winning candidates they were employed by

Nicolle Wallace said very early in this campaign she was all in for Hillary. Detest for Trump notwithstanding, how anyone in their right might could cast a vote for that witch is over-the-top insanity.

Has this woman ever been part of a winning campaign? If not, she is a shining example of the nobodies that the media likes to highlight as “conservatives” who will trash the party base - David Brooks and Russ Douthat of the NY Times, Jennifer Rubin of the Washington Post, Kathleen Parker of whatever, Steve Schmidt, Mike Murphy and various other losers from past campaigns. Those who can’t, teach.

If the nomination is stolen, the 'pubs are going to have a real big problem. Trump supporters won't just abandon the Republican nominee. Republicans will lose everything, except maybe some stuff on the state level if the state gov is doing a good job and those 'pubs weren't part of the scheming or endorsing a spoiler.

The US Senate is probably gone to 'pubs. They've been even more disgusting with a majority. One who will go....Senator Portman. He never should've endorsed Kasich.

Yes, I would consider supporting Hillary Clinton.

I would let her steady herself on my shoulder as she stumbled into the prison van.

Glenn Beck to Vote for Hillary if McCain is GOP Nominee Glenn Beck - Why he would of voted for Hillary instead of John McCain Glenn Beck: McCain would've been worse Glenn Beck: I May have Voted for Hillary Clinton Glenn Beck: 'I won't vote for Trump.' (Even if running against Hillary)

Why would anyone be surprised that the "brown shirts" meme now in use by the Demagogic Party got its start in the mouth of the demagogue Glenn Beck?
