Yet another Republican lawmaker promises no vote for Trump
And while senators may be saying that they aren’t voting for Trump, none yet have said they’re going for Hillary Clinton – but an increasing number of Republican donors are.
“But Donald Trump is not the answer to America’s daunting challenges and to this crucial election”, the statement said.
Hillary Clinton opened up a double-digit lead over Donald Trump in a new poll released Tuesday morning, increasing her lead by two points over her Republican opponent since last week.

Collins said that the attacks against Judge Gonzalo Curiel, the Kahn family and his earlier mocking of a disabled New York Times reporter led her “to the inescapable conclusion that Mr. Trump lacks the temperament, self-discipline and judgment required to be president”.
Collins isn’t the first Republican lawmaker to say they can’t support Trump.
Clinton press secretary Brian Fallon followed up by tweeting, “We’ll see Trump at Hofstra in September”.
“‘Many people are saying’=’I made this up'”.
-69% of Trump voters think that if Hillary Clinton wins the election it will be because it was rigged, to only 16% who think it would be because she got more vote than Trump.
Ed Deak, an economist who retired from Fairfield University and spent more than 30 years forecasting for the New England Economic Partnership, is familiar with Zandi’s work, and said “as a broad-brush indicator” the two papers are “probably pretty good”. “Indeed, we are convinced that he would be a risky president and would put at risk our country’s national security and well-being”.
The Clinton campaign may be trying to put Trump on defense – or pre-empt any more complaints from him about the debate schedule.
When Donald Trump spreads conspiracy theories, his voters listen.
“It is concerning that the Trump campaign is already engaged in shenanigans around these debates”, said Podesta.
Collins added that she could not bring herself to vote for Trump because of his fondness for bullying and “disregard for the precept of treating others with respect”, which she pointed out was “an idea that should transcend politics”.
“We wanted to get the most senior people we could: household names, of people who have worked in the Situation Room and know what is required of the president”, he said.
The surveys reflect the bounce Clinton is still enjoying from her Democratic National Convention and could change once the race settles and voters pay more attention in the fall. “They are nothing more than the failed Washington elite looking to hold onto their power, and it’s time they are held accountable for their actions”, Trump said in a statement. On Monday, 50 of their co-partisans in the national-security Establishment said the same.
