Please Colin..

You're cause is brave and I’m with you 100 %

But conflating Hillary with Trump is an absolute disaster to our cause to keep the Huge Racist and Bigot Trump out of the White House..

Please get the facts correct concerning Hillary and retract them..

IMO only.. I think someone in his camp put him up to this as a way of saving his career.. Sad if true.

I will say, it is inappropriate to force any Republican to voice support for Mrs. Clinton. Privacy is their right. You do yourself and Mrs. Clinton a disservice by suggesting such a thing. as always, just my opinion

i didn’t ask him to support Hillary... Where in my Op-Ed did I say that.?

I just asked him to retract his false statements...”She deleted emails” and that any other person would be in jail if they did what Hillary did... Not exact words.. but close.

Again I did not ask him to endorse Hillary..

Millions have seen this Clip...

He’s anything but a republican..
In his frustration with people mis representing his actions.. He repeated right wing lies concerning Hillary....which helps Trump..

I said nothing about Colin being a Republican..

if he's not careful.

Except in his case, there's something for everyone to hate.

What objectively leads you to believe his comment is a disaster to the election of Clinton? Seems to me as though his is but another voice in a room full of voices... but then again, I haven't read any any objective analyses or polling in regards to this.

concerning Hillary and her attempts to hide emails..Then stating that if it was anyone else but Hillary they would be in Jail.. Millions have seen this false equivocal statement which is helping Trump.

MSM has been pushing this false equivalency story for weeks..

Half of all Americans are NFL fans.http://www.espn.com/nfl/story/_/id/10350802/poll-indicates-49-percent-americans-pro-football-fans?ex_cid=espnapi_public

You obviously have no problem then with the False Equivalencies..

To me this is what the Trump Campaign is thriving on.. Hillary’s dishonesty..which is nothing but lies!!

And you’re telling me to shut up about this?
