It just keeps getting better and better; anyone with a half a brain knows better than to buy into the dumpster's crap. Before you all get your trumpie briefs in a bunch, this group is some serious right wing heavy hitters.

Antonin Scalia was perhaps they most famous right leaning Supreme Court Justice to ever serve on the bench. A newly formed group of his most ardent supporters have come together as the Originalists Against Trump.

There's 29 signatories to the document including George Will and Yuval Levin. The group had this to say about trump's candidacy: "Trump's long record of statements and conduct, in his campaign and in his business career, have shown him indifferent or hostile to the Constitution's basic features — including a government of limited powers, an independent judiciary, religious liberty, freedom of speech and due process of law."

You can read the rest here at Red State.

Those are the stand up type of indivduals that give me continued hope in our nation.

Trump is totally at odds with our constitutional values.

Oh, this is terrifying news, not 29 people that aren't voting for Trump. That will defeat him for sure. I guess I will take down my window sticker and stop wearing my t-shirt. Hey, great news, I got two votes right here that will be cast for Trump on October 19!

Constitutional value: 2nd Amendment rights?

Are these people even Republicans?

I don't think anyone on that list is known by the public.

It is no surprise Trump has been running against these scallywags from the start. Time to clean these cockroaches out of D.C.

See saltine, that's where it all breaks down for you. Dismissing these kinds of people is exactly why trump won't/can't win. Trump's base isn't a hell of a lot bigger than his hands, so consequently he has to try and expand beyond his base.

The folks he's brought aboard have been telling him that for months, but in the end, he ignores them. He had a chance to win this if he truly wanted to. He could have become more centered on the issues (of course that meant reading the script others wrote), he could have avoided insulting half the voting public and he could have toned down the brain dead comments to create buy-in.

He did none of the above because he never gave a rat's ass about winning. He knew by whining his base would eat it up and become even more enamored with the plight of the poor little rich boy who was screwed by the "establishment."

When this is over, simply watch the game he plays and perhaps then you will all begin to see how you were sucked into the vortex known as trump.

Rather weird synopsis given its the Democrats that want to tax businesses who leave the country, as if somehow, we have jurisdiction to tax businesses no longer on US soil.

Clinton also encouraged people to destroy signs in on private property, and put up their own signs, without permission.

Where in the Constitution, do those values rest?

You dismiss actual misdeeds by your own masters, turn around and pretend you got a little something here. (these creeps are what hatched Trump) Got no room to be preaching
