STEPHANOPOULOS: You know, you -- I want to go back to the poll. One of the other things the poll shows is that only 77 percent of Republicans are now supporting Donald Trump. That's a number -- you can't win if the number is that low.

Your friend, George Will, the conservative columnist, just announced over the weekend that he's now no longer a Republican. He's left the party.

And one of our own senators, Mark Kirk, Republican from Illinois, is taking direct aim at Donald Trump. Let's take a look at.

(BEGIN VIDEO CLIP)

UNIDENTIFIED FEMALE: Mark Kirk bucked his party to say Donald Trump is not fit to be commander-in-chief. Mark Kirk, courageous and independent.

SEN. MARK KIRK (R), ILLINOIS: I'm Mark Kirk and I approved this message.

(END VIDEO CLIP)

STEPHANOPOULOS: How can Mr. Trump win if the party is this divided and you've got your own senators making ads like that?

MCCONNELL: Well, Mark Kirk is an independent senator and that's why he got elected in Illinois and why he's going to be reelected this fall.

What I would reassure my friend George Will of is that the Republican Party is still going to be America's conservative party. America needs two parties. We have a liberal party and a conservative party.

If you look at the platform that will be written at our conservative, we are not changing the basic principles that Republicans believe in. Our nominee may not agree with every single one of the, but the Republican Party will remain America's conservative party.

Transcript: Fox News Sunday - June 26, 2016 - FoxNews

WALLACE: Donald Trump is drawing parallels between Brexit and his campaign here in the U.S. but that was a vote about a bureaucracy in Brussels. Not a choice between two candidates. Also, the number of minority voters is twice as high, about 25 percent versus 13 percent in this country as opposed to Great Britain.

Aren't there big differences?

GINGRICH: Well, there are some significant differences. I would point out, by the way, that the week before in both Turin and Rome, reform candidates from a new party founded by a comedian won -- the first woman elected in the history of Rome in 2,800 years won with 65 percent against all of the traditional parties. ...

WALLACE: Now, Secretary Clinton tied Brexit to her argument that Donald Trump is unqualified to be president. In a statement she issued, she said this, "This time of uncertainty only underscores the need for calm, steady, experienced leadership in the White House."

Your response?

GINGRICH: I think it's hysterical.

She was wrong on Brexit. She wanted the remain vote to win. She was wrong on Libya. She thought somehow it would get better if we knock off Gadhafi. She was wrong on the reset with Russia.

I mean, what has she been right about? You need more of this kind of experience?

It's a little bit like Casey Stengel once asked if anybody at the Mets could play the game. I mean, there's no reason to believe that Hillary Clinton's experiences qualify her for anything except retirement.

WALLACE: But isn't there an argument it's better to be experienced than inexperienced?

Stephy forgot to mention just a few things. Trump will suck up the majority of the indys and even get 15-30% of the lefties. In addition he will bring in so many new voters the left's head will spin.

Its gonna be a landslide on the Trump train and none of the lefties will be happy.
