Over the weekend CNBC learned a page on Facebook called Vote Out Every Republican That Opposes Trump was created, and members like Diana Orrock, Republican National Committeewoman for Nevada, are promoting the page in their status posts encouraging followers not to vote for the candidates who they feel have abandoned the GOP presidential nominee. "As national committeewoman, I am supposed to keep my personal beliefs to myself, but I have never been a party-over-principles type of person. I have always been a principles-over-party individual," she said.
"I am no longer endorsing Joe Heck in the Senate race," explained Orrock. "How hypocritical of him to denounce Trump on comments that were 12 years old and locker room banter? By not endorsing Trump, he is supporting Hillary."

If Trump loses and RINOs win, I will vomit. — hamburger, fries, and all.
Not voting for Republicans who want to give the country away is not foolish.
Get a Republican Senate filled with RINOs like McCain, Heck, Sasse and Flake, and that won't happen. They will perhaps obstruct him on the wall and immigration, but he will have a very bully pulpit to start getting rid of some of them in primaries every 2 years, and the rest will fall in line.
As for Paul Ryan and other nevertrumpers in the House, by all means vote them out. The House will stay Republican.
McSally is on thin ice also.
And who's the fool? The person that will vote for someone that folds and either won't stand with them or lies to get their vote in the first place? Don't be a fool, reject these losers instead of empowering them.
Out-standing. The rebellion is on. Wolverine!
“If Trump does not win, the Republican Party is over,” Orrock said flatly. “Party members are willing to forsake our nominee, and that means they are willing to have Hillary take the helm.”
“I will resign as RNC committeewoman for Nevada if Trump loses,” Orrock said on “Power Lunch.” “If not endorsing Trump is what the Republican Party stands for, to hell with the Republican Party.”
My stand exactly.
Someone or something owns him.
I do not care one iota about the carrier or delicate feelings of any politician. You were elected to do the bidding of your constituents and it you aren't ready to throw yourself on your sword and return to private life than you should not have become a public servant. Get out!
It doesn’t matter if Trump has to deal with a Dem Congress, because he can win it back in ‘18.
Nor will I.
All I can figure out is that the smug SOB figured that he's so far ahead in the polls that he could afford to endorse Pence instead. (did he think that weaseling would appease enough voters for victory?) Keep in mind that Senator Portman got the ball rolling with gay marriage "in support of his gay son"
Trump can build a coalition with a Democratic US Senate. There only a handful of Republican US Senators worth saving.
Don’t worry about the Senate. It’s lost. Either the Dems will take it outright or progressive “Republican” Senators will line up to pull a Jumpin’ Jim Jeffords and give them control.
We need a list. we need to make phone calls.
I would LOVE to kick the moron inslee out of the governor’s mansion (Washington state) but the pubbie candidate refused to support Trump. Now it looks like Trump is the ONLY box that I’ll be checking this election season.
Paul Ryan is a beltway lifer. His brain is full of consultant driven mush. He couldn’t tell his rear from a hole in the ground at this point.
It’s all going according the the Trump/Clinton pre-arranged plan. Divide and conquer.
I don’t think so. It’s time for Nevada to go democrat if our republican congressmen, senator, and governor cannot support Trump.
We can always start over from scratch next election. We cannot have republicans who will not support the President.
Here's the problem with that approach;
1. If you don't vote for the "R" down ballot, you're helping the "D" get elected -- even if you vote for a third party "I".
2. If Trump is going to get anything lasting accomplished, he must have the cooperation of Congress.
3. There is no chance that a Democrat Congress will cooperate with Trump. A Republican Congress is far more likely to do Trump's bidding...if grudgingly.
4. Accordingly, if we want Trump to succeed, we're obliged to vote for the "R" -- as distasteful as that might be.
After Trump wins and the RINOs loose the House and Senate, the surviving Democrats will be more than happy to support President Trump’s agenda because they will want to get re-elected. The rest is executive action. Remember, under President Trump, shutting down the government is a good thing.
Nor am I, but living in the land of fruits and nuts...my options are limited.
