this tells you all you need to know. career politicians who are worried they'll lose all the perks and all the secret envelopes of cash exchanged in the boiler room, when you have a lot to lose, you lash out in odd ways, this denouncing is proof positive that these people believe trump will come in and clean up the corruption. its a nice 'tell' as to who feels they have a lot to lose.
Here's a handy reference of some prominent Republicans that have declared that they are voting for Hillary Clinton. Senators, Representatives, Governors - even a former Republican President. I am curious; how do Trump supporters explain this? Seems there are quite a few cold stone sober conservatives that are willing to go on public record that Democratic candidate Hillary Clinton will be a better POTUS than Donald Trump.

Hilarious.
So you think there aren't at least as many Democrats voting for Trump? Really?
Here's a handy reference of some prominent Republicans that have declared that they are voting for Hillary Clinton. Senators, Representatives, Governors - even a former Republican President. I am curious; how do Trump supporters explain this? Seems there are quite a few cold stone sober conservatives that are willing to go on public record that Democratic candidate Hillary Clinton will be a better POTUS than Donald Trump.

That's a lot of influential people - I'm thinking they see Trump as the worse of two evils more than solid endorsements for Clinton. Sort of like how the everyday voter supporting Clinton sees it.

When Trump takes office I see this list as a priority for the new head of the IRS to scrutinize. Kind of like what the liberals just did the conservatives. But this group is obviously more pay to play; just like their counterparts on the liberal side. So they are opposed to change that might put them under the spotlight. One good place to start looking.

Another reason is that the Republicans think they will lose in 2020 if Trump is elected. I think they fear the damage that he will do to the GOP might be permanent. No question they would not take this position unless they thought Trump was a dire risk. I also suspect that the are getting a lot of pressure from their constituents to defeat Trump, they see him as bad for business. No one solidly endorses Clinton. But there are plenty of other compelling reasons to want her to win.
