Jim Webb: Would not vote for Hillary, "not sure" if he'd vote for Trump

1. Welcome to the club Jim...

There are lots of people feeling the same.

Not about Trump, just about her.

4. Anyone who'd vote for FrankenTrump over Hillary Clinton needs a brain transplant.

Hillary Clinton is brilliant, PROGRESSIVE (though not a purist), and supremely qualified to be President of the United States. Trump is a vile puke bucket cartoon character racist carnival barker. Sanders is a well meaning guy who says many good things and has a good heart but is just not a national candidate and could not be elected in the GE as a self described socialist. Hillary will be the nominee, and the large majority of Sanders supporters will support her too because HE is. If they are truly progressive and care anything at all actual policy positions on the issues and not just broadside and shallow shouting about "the establishment" as Trump does, then the YUGE majority of Sanders supporters will support Clinton when she is nominated.

5. Honestly it may not be Trump

Romney filed to run in 2016. My bet is he's hoping for a brokered convention and to come in as the savior of the party.

Not that I'd really vote for him or any Republican myself, but many see Hillary as the worst of nearly any options, so insulting them doesn't do much to change or delegitimize their opinions.

For myself, at this point in time I'd have a really hard time pulling the lever for her. There's just too much that she's done and too many backs stabbed and too many lies. By Nov who knows, but right now I'd lean toward a write-in. Whether you consider that throwing away my vote or electing a Republican, my principles mean more to me this year and right now than the same old problem of every 4 years being the "most important election of your lifetime". Many also feel that the country will still be around regardless of who gets in, and some amy feel that it needs to hit rock bottom in order to get better, others may feel Hillary is that rock bottom. There are lots of reasons people won't vote for her if she becomes the nominee.

I doubt Hillary can overcome those feelings for people if she becomes the nominee.

7. It's a lot of bullshit hyperbolic nonsense fed by corporate and right wing media.

Hillary has a been a damn good progressive public servant, was an excellent Secretary of State, and all this BULLSHIT about emails is a load of steaming BULLSHIT cycled and recycled bullshit corporate media crap, the same with a lot of the bullshit that's been thrown at her for years. That woman sat there and made the R's look like pathetic fools for eleven hours last fall in that kangaroo court committee hearing. Watch that video and you'll see why she should be president.

Write in a candidate and help some scumbag RePuke become President? Sorry, but that's nonsense. You might as well flush your vote down the nearest commode.

And there will be NO BROKERED CONVENTION on the ReSCUMlican side. Anyone who has done as well as FrankenTrump thus far has NEVER lost the nomination, at least not in modern history. And he is on point to clean up in major states come Tuesday. If he takes most of those, this is OVER.

Nope. The ReScums made this monster after years of pumping up their base with radical right wing propaganda and hatred from the drug addict Limbaugh, to the Fake Noise Network, to the TeaBaggers, to the Birthers of which Trump was the Birther In Chief. They have created a bunch of radical, low-minded numbskulls who would vote for Satan if he had an R next to his name. So they love a racist shit mouthing asshole like The Trumpet. And so now that their establishment is shitting its pants, too fucking bad. They got TRUMP. And he WILL be the nominee. If they try to rob him of it, they will cause an all out civil war in that party far worse than what they already have. Bwahahahahaha...

It will be Trumpenstein, and Hillary, one of the most well qualified candidates in our history, will make him look like the pathetic racist carnival barker that he is.

8. I'm sorry you believe that there are only 2 possibilities there

Either worship at the Hillary altar or you are just repeating right-wing smears.

She hasn't been a progressive at all. It simply takes looking at her record to see that. Not everything is a right-wing smear or conspiracy and many of her supporters are now innoculated to anything negative about her because of ridiculous right-wing smears.

I merely stated my opinion that that was what Romney was hoping for.

And Trump & Hillary are both horrible candidates, but I will grant you that they are each horrible for different reasons.

[litlbilly]

10. sorry, you are simply wrong. Hillary is not a true progressive.

[Gary 50]

11. She said some have called me a moderate and I plead guilty.

She is a moderate in a party which has been pulled far to the right. That puts her far to the right of the political center and to call her a progressive is really stretching the meaning of progressive to the point where it is meaningless.

[Elmer S. E. Dump]

13. She's a progressive that likes to get things done!

[truebluegreen]

2. Well, maybe he doesn't consider either one a Democrat

although it passes understanding that he calls himself one.

Maybe those questions were answered in the video but, apologies, I can't watch Morning Joe: he makes me want to hurl.

[RBInMaine]

3. If this is how he feels, then he's NUTS. What a shame. Thought he had a brain.

[Chakab]

15. It's not nuts if you've paid attention to his views on social issues.

[BeyondGeography]

6. Good non-move, Barack

[Bucky]

9. I'm concerned that Webb's political influence could swing away from Clinton 5-10% of the vote...

from members of his immediate family.

12. When "President Trump" orders war crimes

will "always a Marine" follow orders?

14. To think someone earlier didn't like the word "purge".
