PHILADELPHIA — Long a lightning rod on the right, Hillary Clinton is making a targeted appeal to Republicans who challenge Donald Trump's claim to the conservative mantle and fear his possible presidency.
Clinton's final day of the Democratic National Convention will feature speeches by a former member of President Ronald Reagan's administration and a U.S. Chamber of Commerce official who is heading a GOP group supporting Clinton, part of an expanded outreach to Republican voters and donors.
Clinton pivoted to the left during the primaries and fended off self-described Democratic socialist Bernie Sanders. Trump's national security stumbles in questioning U.S. support for NATO allies and urging Russia to meddle in the race provides a general-election opening for Clinton and other Democrats to reach out to Republicans.
In his speech Wednesday night, President Barack Obama evoked Reagan, reminding voters that the conservative hero famously called the United States "a shining city on a hill." Trump, he said, calls the United States "a divided crime scene" and hopes to win votes by scaring people over immigration and crime.
So, Clinton is going to stand there and try to recruit GOP voters while Sanders supporters "perform" their fart-in? She better find a way to unite the Democratic Party before venturing out to try to recruit Republicans. I saw a poll and more Dems were going for Trump, than Republicans going for Hillary. Sanders supporters, many are moving to Jill Stein or so it looks.
No Republican will ever vote for Hillary Clinton, ever, period, full stop.
That's as crazy as saying that Democrats would vote for someone from the Bush family.
I know many that are voting for Clinton as they don't want Trump to win.
