Limbaugh: Republican Establishment Will Vote for Hillary to Keep Power

 
 
 

 

Monday on his radio show, conservative talker Rush Limbaugh argued some Republicans would be willing to vote for Democratic presidential front-runner Hillary Clinton over the eventual GOP presidential nominee if that means holding on to their power.

Limbaugh argued that if 

Sen. Ted Cruz (R-TX)
 
97%
 
 turns out to be the nominee, the so-called Republican establishment would be willing to take a defeat if that is necessary for them to maintain power.

 

Partial transcript as follows:

If the guy gets close to 1,237 but still has the majority in delegates, and they take the nomination away from him, we’re gonna lose the voters, right?  What’s gonna happen?  Folks… (sigh) Patience. Patience, Rush.  The Republican establishment is prepared to vote for Hillary Clinton if it means holding onto their fiefdoms.

The Republican Party is prepared, if Ted Cruz gets the nomination, to not care whether he wins or loses.  In fact, if Ted Cruz is the nominee and loses the general, the party will be happy.  They’ll be able to blame the loss on conservatives and conservatism and be done — once and for all — with conservatism in the party.  The party’s primary objective is self-preservation, not winning the White House in this cycle. Given the vagaries of this cycle, the Republican Party’s primary objective is maintaining its own power structure and base for the current people that occupy it.

Sadly, I believe it to be true.

 Yep. The GOP establishment has not been quiet about this.  They may make it through another 4 years collecting their large salaries, but they are done, they have committed suicide if they do not go with the popular vote.

LOL. So...the GOP thinks it will keep it's power. Tsk tsk tsk

They have learned absolutely nothing then.

Good bye GOP, you are now a footnote in history.

He's exactly right. The Republicans are sell-outs who have no interest in the good of the nation.

Well, I could agree with you--but then we'd both be wrong.

   Well, it isnt over yet.   They may put forth Paul Ryan.  They really don't care about the wrath of the voters.  If the voters then get pissed and don't vote, then Hillary wins and they are sitting pretty.  Or, they will go ahead and nominate Cruz, then go behind the scenes and do everything in their power to sabatoge him.    They havent learned because there is nothing for them to learn.  They have always been turncoats and the voters only had hoped they weren't but they are.

However, there is still one possible thing they haven't thought of.  That Trump could go third party.  And, maybe, just maybe they can't make all the marionnettes dance and it is still possible to thumb our noses at both parties.  Stranger things have happened.
