WASHINGTON (AP) It's just a trickle now, but some Republicans are urging people to back GOP congressional candidates because they'd constrain Hillary Clinton's agenda should she be elected president this November.

Sen. John McCain, R-Ariz., facing a competitive re-election fight, unveiled a video this week promising to "act as a check, not a rubber stamp," if Clinton wins the White House.
In fundraising emails in recent weeks, House Speaker Paul Ryan, R-Wis., GOP operative Karl Rove and a Colorado lawmaker battling for his seat made similar appeals.

"America cannot afford an unchecked Hillary Clinton presidency," Karl Rove wrote. "If she wins, we will need a strong Republican House to defend against her radical liberal agenda."

Republican consultant Josh Holmes, former chief of staff to Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell, R-Ky., said asking voters to use a GOP Congress to restrain Clinton is a smart, essential tactic. "It's particularly effective this cycle because of the intense distrust of Hillary Clinton," said Holmes.

Ryan added that if Hillary Clinton wins the White House, a Republican Congress is needed to be a check on her.

Like they “blocked” Obama? They can all go to hell.
Sideways.
I’m waiting for Trump to go all ‘Harper Valley PTA’ on them.
Time to get rid of every Republican against Trump.
Even if it means crossing over to the other side. After all these Republicans are Democrat Operatives with “R”s by their names.
FU GOPe’s
Too bad McCain won his primary.
.
That senile corrupt old goat needs to get kicked to the curb...

I read that Hiilary is going to impose a 25% tax on new guns. The only thing that stands in her way is the Congressional GOP. I dont think there is any doubt the GOP would block that if they have a majority. But if they are in the minority, I am pretty sure it will pass.

Block it because of a majority? What did they BLOCK, *BEING* the majority, of Zero??
I say, go for it. Attach the verbiage to abortions, voting, welfare, etc.: Some Rights are more inalienable that others it would seem...not as if the (R) could articulate what a ‘Right’ is to begin, let alone broach the subject [that might get People to start thinking].
Not a chance fellows. You rolled over for 0bumbles - just like you would roll over for the Clinton Crime Family.
You had your chance and you set fire to it. That was the last straw. You wanted the Republican party to follow the dinosaurs .... so be it. I’m voting for Trump and anyone but a Republican down ballot. You guys wanted to burn the party to the ground ... here’s an extra 5 gal Gerry can to help you out.
Exactly what I told McCain except I used much more forceful language.
Anyone who says this should be voted out just to make them have to live with the effects of the Clinton agenda with the rest of us.

They really expect us to believe this BS don’t they. Well not any more.
F U Republican Party! All they are worrying is their power. Guess what, you are no different from the Democraps and I’m not bothering to vote for you.
The GOP complained that Romney didn’t fight back when debating Obama. Now, Trump fights back and they say he is too manly. Democrats said President Clinton’s private life was his private life. Democrats now say Trump shouldn’t have a private life and should be judged by words. It is a double standard.
I call BS on these traitors to their electorate. The h*** with these losers. They had their chance.
Since when, you lily-livered traitors?
LOL. Yeah, like you guys have stopped the man child, right?
Cowards.
There is no rational way that any of the breed could refute your point.
While I believe that we should focus on the positive—and superb talents & mettle of our candidate Donald Trump—some people might consider replying to all emailed fund requests from the pseudo Conservative poseurs, to the effect of your quip. Maybe if they get a few thousand such responses, they may decide that they really meant to work for Trump. (Just thinking as I type.)
