The list grow longer every day - Web Link

The list is too ling for her - just a sample; but these are PUBLIC denunciations of the windbag Trump

"The list of Republicans endorsing Hillary Clinton just got a whole lot longer"

Rep. Richard Hanna (N.Y.), a moderate Republican who is retiring this year, told Syracuse.com that he will support Clinton and that Trump is unfit to lead. He cited Trump's criticism of Khizr Khan. "I think Trump is a national embarrassment," Hanna said. "Is he really the guy you want to have the nuclear codes?"


Bush administration officials (just one of many groups)

Henry Paulson, treasury secretary

Carlos Gutierrez, commerce secretary

John Negroponte, director of national intelligence and deputy secretary of state under Bush, five-time ambassador and Reagan deputy national security adviser

Richard Armitage, deputy secretary of state and adviser to Ronald Reagan and George H.W. Bush — Trump "doesn't appear to be a Republican, he doesn't appear to want to learn about issues. So I’m going to vote for Mrs. Clinton."

Brent Scowcroft, chairman of the President's Intelligence Advisory Board and
adviser to three previous Republican presidents — "The presidency requires the judgment and knowledge to make tough calls under pressure. ... [Clinton] has the wisdom and experience to lead our country at this critical time."

William Reilly, Environmental Protection Agency adminstrator

Alan Steinberg, regional EPA administrator

Robert Blackwill, former deputy national security adviser and ambassador to India

Scott Evertz, former director of the Office of National AIDS Policy

Lezlee Westine, former White House director of public liaison and deputy assistant to the president — “Our nation faces a unique set of challenges that require steady and experienced leadership. That is why today I am personally supporting Hillary Clinton."

Trump getting killed in state polls. Fails to break 40 in most swing states (averages).

Landslide 330-170 territory if not worse.

So that explains the run from trumpy. These guys all want to work later. Trump is resume suicide

Mark this down as the week every thinking being realized trump can not win.

Politico:
GOP insiders: Trump can't win

'Trump is underperforming so comprehensively...it would take video evidence of a smiling Hillary drowning a litter of puppies while terrorists surrounded her with chants of ‘Death to America,’' said an Iowa Republican.


So....... cue the crazies.

This isn't just the $12.7 million in cash from Putin's dictator in the Ukraine to Manafort, Trump's campaign manager.

This is new.

More money.

A different hatchet job for Putin.

Now we know why Trump is anti-NATO, and doing Putin's dirty work.


"Fresh details of alleged secret payments allocated for Paul Manafort by the pro-Russian party of Ukraine’s former president have emerged after 12 itemized regime accounting entries, totaling $7.61 million, were obtained by The Times. "


"The senior Ukrainian prosecutor alleges that in 2006 Mr. Manafort orchestrated a series of Anti-Nato, Anti-Kiev protests in Crimea led by Viktor Yanukovych’s pro-Russian Party of Regions—now a designated criminal organisation.

The protests forced planned Nato exercises there to be cancelled."

Every week there is a new topic created by the Hillary sycophants trying to make themselves feel better/superior about supporting a candidate with no accomplishments other than being a world class grifter....

It's amazing that you spend your time with all these posts when you are certain that he can't possibly win. Or is it just that you get your jollies being part of the California contribution to electing the latest liberal disaster?
Getting harder to sift through Town Square posts to find an interesting discussion about local topics.

"supporting a candidate with no accomplishments other than being a world class grifter...."

Nice! Take the title most often applied to Trump and assign to Clinton. Karl Rove taught you well.

Any comments on how long Manafort stays on the campaign, and out of jail? They already brought in his replacement yesterday, the Brietbart guy.

Extra points for blasting you family, neighbors and co-workers in beautiful, smart, liberal California! Calif loves Obama - 76 months of private sector job growth!

Let me see - we're playing the guilt by association game! This is fun! My turn:

Let's have the father, Omar Mateen,of a mass murderer of 49 people in a FL nightclub to be front and center and cheering at a Hillary rally! Nice!

Oh, and lest I forget - I note you really didn't explain - just what has Hillary accomplished?

trolls are getting desperate: "Let's have the father, Omar Mateen,... be front and center and cheering at a Hillary rally!"

Clinton shortly denounced the father.

And in Trump rally the same week, right behind Trump, disgraced GOP Pedophile CongressalCreep Mark Foley.

Good buds with the Trumpster!

Trump donated lots of money to Foley.

Still waiting for Trump to man up, apologize, ask for his bribe/donations back, and denounce Foley.

"To the right of the screen in a blue blazer is none other than former Republican congressman Mark Foley, a disgraced homosexual pedophile who was forced to resign in 2006, after it was revealed that the pervert was sending sexual texts to interns who were underage teenage boys.

Worse yet, Trump was exciting the crowd by telling them that he wouldn’t make the same mistake as Hillary because he knows everybody who sits behind him at rallies.

He even asked those who know him to raise their hands and guess whose hand went up. That’s right, among all the hands that were raised were Mark Foley’s.

“When you get those seats, you sort of know the campaign. You sort of know the campaign,” Trump informed the cheering crowd. “How many of you people know me?” he asked.

CNN reported that the rows of seats directly behind Trump where Foley was seated were marked “RESERVED.”"



Pedohile Foley takes Trump's donations.

Pedohile Foley sits directly behind Trump and waves back to Trump, his buddy.


trolls are getting desperate:
Mateen? That was really rich. Turn off Brietbart. You are truly desperate.
