30 MORE GOP lawmakers sign anti Trump letter
Trump's terrible last week is extending to a week 2
http://www.cnn.com/2016/10/06/politi...ter/index.html
Washington (CNN)More than two dozen former Republican members of Congress released a letter Thursday saying they cannot vote for Donald Trump because he "makes a mockery" of their principles.
Though the letter makes no mention of Hillary Clinton, organizer Andrew Weinstein said some of the members will vote for the Democrat, while others will vote for Libertarian Gary Johnson or write in a candidate.
"Given the enormous power of the office, every candidate for president must be judged rigorously in assessing whether he or she has the competence, intelligence, knowledge, understanding, empathy, judgment, and temperament necessary to keep America on a safe and steady course," the lawmakers wrote. "Donald Trump fails on each of those measures, and he has proven himself manifestly unqualified to be president."
"In nominating Donald Trump, the Republican Party has asked the people of the United States to entrust their future to a man who insults women, mocks the handicapped, urges that dissent be met with violence, seeks to impose religious tests for entry into the United States, and applies a de facto ethnicity test to judges," they wrote. "He offends our allies and praises dictators. His public statements are peppered with lies. He belittles our heroes and insults the parents of men who have died serving our country. Every day brings a fresh revelation that highlights the unacceptable danger in electing him to lead our nation."

One candidate is running against his own party. The other candidate needed the party to rig the primary so she could just barely beat someone that isn't even in the party.

I would imagine so. Trump represents less power to the corrupt lawmakers.

Hillary blew Bernie out of the water, son. What are you talking about?
+12% popular vote, +3.7 million raw votes, +11 States/Contests. She finished with almost 3 million more votes than the Donald, who set the record for most primary votes for the GOP.
That thing was never remotely close, despite the media narrative. Rinse and repeat with what we have now.

How so? Specifically.

Most of those lawmakers that signed the letter are retired. They have no dog in the fight and nothing to benefit from it except for the welfare of these United States.

You know Trump is the right candidate when both establishments are against him.
This isn't really news because I like how the article starts off with 'former'.

It's the Trump reality distortion bubble. A few emails that showed certain democrats preferred Hillary over Bernie = massive voter fraud in their eyes. Anything to fit their narrative.

Not really. Congress still makes law. All the president does is sign it into law or veto it. You can obviously use that power to lobby congress to move in a certain general direction, but the President doesn't have a tenth of the power that these candidates talk about what they're going to do if elected.

Hillary got more votes in 2008 than Obama. He still won.
Who knows how close it would have been if it was a level playing field?

The Bernie Bros/3rd Party dipshits believe this nonsense as well.
Of the 10 most populous states, HRC carried 9 of them and won by 3.7 million votes. You don't rig such an ass-whipping. It can't be done.
Who in their right mind thinks that individual DNC members don't have a right to their [opinion anyway? HRC has been a loyal Democrat for 40+ years, it makes perfect sense that many top Democrats would prefer her to Bernie.
