Donald Trump Must Withdraw. Here's Why | The Closer with Keith Olbermann | GQ

[Retired George]

Don't do it, Donald! You're actually winning in 49 states! The polls are run by international bankers! And the Freemasons! And Satan Himself!

1. Hmmm ... just imagine Mike Pence ...

... calling it quits 1 week before the election. What would happen then ...?

[Fritz Walter]

2. Drumpf would try to replace him...

...with one of his misbegotten spawn.

[Malbrownluna8708]

6. Ted Cruz would drop from the ceiling

of the press conference like the old creepy spider he is.

12. As I read your post

I heard Hattie McDaniel's (Gone With the Wind) voice

[Fast Walker 52]

3. Masterful-- as always!

[DK504]

17. I compel thee Satan...you must leave

[bucolic_frolic]

4. Keith has left me in awe again

He is so willing to take a stand so publicly

[AmericanActivist]

5. I agree with Keith O. He should be stopped by the party that brought him to this point.

The Republican Party has an obligation to America and Americans. And elected Republicans most definitely have a responsibility to act against all threats to this country including domestic threats.

Thank you Keith O. for your intelligent, passionate and valid argument.

7. K&R!

Thank you, Keith.

[longship]

8. Holy shit!

R&

Astounding. Absolutely astounding.

9. Whoa!

Strident and vehement even by Keith standards. And right on.

The Neo Nazi base voting for him I get...but the non foaming at the mouth, non alt right folks...what is wrong with some of them?

For more than a few righties it has been a bridge way to far...but not for enough of them.

May this serve a purpose, namely the death of the Republican Party.

[Urchin]

10. I thought we are a republic?

Good video.

But aren't we a republic and not democracy?

Why do the media keep referring to us as a democracy?

Is that what their sponsors want us to believe?

(Not that I see anything wrong with a republic--in fact, a republic depending how it's structured, is probably better than a democracy, at least in certain cases)

[LostOne4Ever]

11. We are a DEMOCRATIC republic: democracy is at the heart of it! Nt

[Spitfire of ATJ]

13. Republicans keep calling this a "Republic" as if they OWN it....

They also call themselves the "Grand Old Party" as if they were here first when they only started in the mid-1800s by a guy they hate.

[LiberalLovinLug]

14. It could be a disaster if Trump was replaced

for Hillary. And for America


The worst thing in the world for Democrats is if Trump was somehow replaced with a "viable" candidate in the Republican party. If its this close now, what would happen if millions of Republicans who were going to stay home now have a sane choice (relatively speaking). Millions of Republican women that were contemplating voting Hillary now have a "decent" person to vote for. This shiny new choice would obviously realize he or she has to milk the topics like "Hillary is a crook" and " Emails Emails Emails..." "Pay for Play" etc..because they are not going to throw out what works with their base, but they will do it in a well-honed smooth manner that only a seasoned politician can do. Especially if given a few weeks to establish themself.

So no Keith, you are wrong on this one. We can hold out for a few more weeks can't we?

[awoke_in_2003]

15. No, he mustn't withdraw

we need the GOP to accept the ass whipping coming their way.

[bucolic_frolic]

16. "Democracy imperiled from within"

Keith let's it rip

A call to action for the Republican Party

What Keith doesn't say is if the GOP can hunker down, do nothing, and survive

It could take several election cycles to boot them for good

They could save themselves if they booted Trump

But they won't, they're up to something

[Coyotl]

18. and Aliens!
