There you go, no need to post about it anymore.

In case you all missed the memo, Trump ran against the republican establishment. What part of that did you miss?

Furthermore, those supporting Trump care less if any establishment republican organizations or groups come out to support him. All it does is continue to galvanize their support for him.

How, after all this time, can liberals be so oblivious to what has happened that they think any of this is news? Are they all that daft?
5 Star post! I have noticed that, they are listing each Republican and/or some better known individual that isn't supporting Trump. I am not sure why I should care.

Maybe this should be a "sticky" and each day, they just list the name and anyone that gives a darn can refer to that "sticky".

Well, what else can they really discuss while we wait for the next hit from Wiki Leaks? The Dems platform is "lie or deflect" and they serve it well. They are getting warmed up for the fire storm ahead.

You should care because his own party is running away from him as fast as they can.

Assange is working on getting Trump's tax returns. I wonder, will you cheer when he leaks them to the world?

I wouldn't care as long as he didn't commit major tax fraud.

No surprise here that they are not going to support Trump. They are well educated, smart, and probably affluent, so they are able to rationally look at a candidate and know if he is worthy of support or a potential problem. They are simply not fooled by his dog and pony antics, hiding the fact his is dangerous and is not fit to run this country.

These Harvard people are thinkers who make decisions on facts, not conjecture or emotions. Kinda bears out what some people have been saying about the folks who do support Trump not being as well educated or informed.

Exactly. They aren't the Republicans of old. Not by a long shot. They are basically RINO'S.

But you know who definitely is a RINO? Donald Trump. He's the biggest RINO of them all, because up until a few years ago he was a Democrat who not only donated to the Clintons on a regular basis, but is on record praising Hillary and saying she would make great president. He calls himself a Republican, but most of his own party hates him. No one will campaign with him. Politicians who are seeking reelection are running away from him as fast as they can.

When the majority of a party doesn't like you and you are on record as praising and supporting the opposition party for years, that makes you the RINO, not the other way around.
Business men donate to whoever suits their interest. I'm not hating on that. Hillary supporters should be worried that one of her donors was the description they give for Donald Trump. Is it possible someone "like that" was able to use money to influence her?

BTW - I don't think most people care what republicans do. Trump supporters don't seem to be as "sheepish" as dems or the traditional political model....they don't really care who the big wig party people align with.

REAL Republicans didn't like Hillary back in 2008 any more than they like her now. Did you ever, even once, see a REAL Republican have anything nice to say about Hillary in 2008? Yet Trump said then that Hillary would make a great president.

There's your RINO.

Maybe there was something in it for him? He wasn't a politician so who cares who he threw his weight behind? Pretty sure "RINO" is a term to describe politicians. Hillary supporters should be more concerned about WHY someone they describe as Donald Trump would EVER support Hillary. Trump's support of Hillary should tell you more about Hillary than it does Trump.

A business man is free to be an opportunist. A business man's only loyalty is to the dollar and shareholders. They SHOULD support anyone that benefits their own interest as long as it isn't breaking any laws. Do you rage against all the companies that ship jobs off to other countries to make bigger profits?

Donald Trump is the Republican nominee for president. That makes him a politician. And his past support and open admiration for a hated Republican opponent not so long ago makes him a RINO today.
He'll be a politician the day he receives a paycheck from the American taxpayers. He'll be a RINO the day he doesn't support the positions he held the day before he's elected president. What he did as a private citizen business man is irrelevant.

OMG, I laughed so hard at this line that I scared the cat. So it's Hillary's fault that Donald supported her?
You don't worry about why someone described like Donald Trump supported the candidate you love?
