The whip list of Republicans jumping ship

Posted by | October 8, 2016 16:03 | Filed under: News Behaving Badly Politics


More to come, I’m sure.

Republicans revoking endorsements (6)…

Republicans calling on Trump to drop out (18)

Rep. Bradley Byrne (R-Ala.): “It is now clear Donald Trump is not fit to be President of the United States and cannot defeat Hillary Clinton. I believe he should step aside and allow Governor Pence to lead the Republican ticket.”

Rep. Mike Coffman (R-Colo.): “For the good of the country, and to give the Republicans a chance of defeating Hillary Clinton, Mr. Trump should step aside…put the country first and do the right thing.”

Rep. Barbara Comstock (R-Va.): “This is disgusting, vile, and disqualifying. No woman should ever be subjected to this type of obscene behavior and it is unbecoming of anybody seeking high office. In light of these comments, Donald Trump should step aside and allow our party to replace him with Mike Pence or another appropriate nominee from the Republican Party.”

Sen. Mike Crapo (R-Idaho): “I urge Donald Trump to step aside and allow the Republican party to put forward a conservative candidate like Mike Pence who can defeat Hillary Clinton.”

Rep. Rodney Davis (R-Mo.): “The abhorrent comments made by Donald Trump are inexcusable and go directly against what I’ve been doing in Washington to combat assaults on college campuses. Because of this, I am rescinding my support for Donald Trump and asking to have my name removed from his agriculture advisory committee. With the terrible options America has right now, I cannot cast my vote for any of the candidates, so I hope Donald Trump withdraws from the race so the American people can elect Mike Pence as our next president.”

South Dakota Gov. Dennis Daugaard: “Enough is enough. Donald Trump should withdraw in favor of Governor Mike Pence. This election is too important.”

Sen. Jeff Flake (R-Az.): “Donald Trump is wrong about his level of support. He needs to withdraw from the race.”

Sen. Cory Gardner (R-Colo.): “I will not vote for Donald Trump. If Donald Trump wishes to defeat Hillary Clinton, he should do the only thing that will allow us to do so — set aside, and allow Mike Pence to be the Republican party’s nominee.”

Rep. Joe Heck (R-Nev.), candidate for U.S. Senate: “I can no longer look past this pattern of behavior and inappropriate comments from Donald Trump. Therefore, I cannot, in good conscience, continue to support him nor can I vote for Hillary Clinton…my wife, my daughters, my mother, my sister and all women deserve better. The American people deserve better… I believe our only option is to formally ask Mr. Trump to step down and allow Republicans the opportunity to elect someone who will provide us with the strong leadership so desperately needed and one that Americans deserve.”

    Unless I’m mistaken (I’m unsure), if Drumpf drops out, there would have to be another primary, as Pence was never voted for.(Even Forbes is unsure)
    (Unless the RNC want to ignore voters, and we ALL know that they would never do that…)

    It’s funny [?] that the people who are most staunchly standing behind Trump are the evangelical born again family values folks!

    “The cannibalism, necrophilia, child molestation, and swindling were perfectly acceptable, but this is just a bridge too far!”

    — Generic Republican up for reelection.
