The Republican businessmen I know say the same thing but they wonât vote for Bernie

Whatâs interesting to me is that Fernandez is willing to vote for Hilary over Rubio or Cruz. Trumpâs standing on top of the GOP pile and the enthusiasm of his anti-immigrant views suggests that Rubio and/or Cruz will not be given a free pass by the Hispanic community by virtue of their surnames.

Mike Fernandez, a top donor to Republican presidential candidate Jeb Bush, told The Miami Herald on Friday that heâd rather vote for Democratic presidential candidate Hillary Clinton than Donald Trump.
And thatâs a wrap. We can now stop talking about JEB with regards to this race because he is now (even unofficially) out.

Hispanics canât be counted on to vote for Cuban immigrants. Hispanics donât like the special rights given to Cuban refugees.

In dudeâs favor, Iâd say he at least a modicum of sanity. Modicum, barely.

Interesting, a conservative Republican who is actually seeing some reality. Even more interesting, and apropos of Kasichâs comparisons of Trump to Hitler, per the article in the Miami Herald, what is, âperhaps most striking in the [Mike Fernandez] ad is its comparison of Trump and several dead dictators.â
âLook at Hitler in Germany, Mussolini in Italy and Peron in Argentina,â
it says. âWhen people lose hope, they are susceptible to those who offer
to think for them.â
Sound familiar?

I agree. Things must really be unraveling in Jebâs camp if one of his top donors is putting forth the supposition of Trump as the nominee.

They wonât vote for Bernie but they will turn to Hillary because she is already owned by them and will be very reliable.

If Trump was the nominee, and Hillary won with 450+ electoral votes, his supporters would claim it was due to voter fraud. Nothing will make them see that the rest of country just isnât into the Tea Party thing.

We tried hope and hope turned out to be just another flunkyânot a bad manâa good man who was turned by the system.
No ⌠because FOX (Entertainment) News is the only one that will tell you the truth!

Thatâs exactly what Iâve been pondering ⌠that either Rubio or Cruz would be considerered the âfirst Hispanic presidentâ never quite made sense to me.

Could this be the beginning of the resurgence of the moderate Republicans? After so many years of enduring the crazy of the TP the moderates are due for a comeback. And if it takes tRump to bring them out I am all for it. The GOP will not survive in its present form much longer.

I love Bernie, but I wonât vote for him as he hasnât a prayer of winning the general. The next 4-8 years are critical for the Supreme Court for a generation.
If you want to be so perfectly pure that you canât pull the lever for Hillary, you deserve the political swill that results, but I donât.

Iâd feel a lot better if he included the rest of the GOP field in that statement. Every single one of them would be horrible.

You are making very little sense. How did âthe systemâ turn Obama. The guy who is leading the worldâs charge against the root of so much evil being doneâfossil fuel, and those it benefitsâincluding ISIS.

Holding my nose, Iâd say the hypothetical nature of his statement is a call to back anybody but Trump. Doesnât mean he wonât work for/donate to any of the others, just that Turmp has lost him and presumably many other Republicans who canât stand the thought of his as their standard=bearer.
You know - the ones who created the Main St / Wall Street split to control Main Street. Fun partâs going to be watching them get off the tiger.

Donald Trump most certainly has put many a âmoderateâ (even the not-socially conservative) GOPers at a real disadvantage and in quite an uncomfy spot.

In two posts you show you have both Obama Derangement Syndrome and nascent Clinton Derangement Syndrome. Thatâs a first.
