The movement RVAT, Republican Voters Against Trump, launched in May of this year, and appears to be gaining momentum heading into the election. Seems some Republicans believe that the only way to save their party is to vote Democrat this November. On the RVAT site linked below are a growing number of Republicans, conservatives and former Trump voters making their case as to why they will be voting for Joe Biden in the fall, and are urging other Republicans to do the same:

I think you meant to say RINO, not rhino which is the shortened term for rhinoceros. It's a simple mistake made by a handful of people, I have included a photo to help you out. And of course you would look at them as RINO's, that is not surprising to me. Others may see them as Republican voters who care about the party and want to save it from Trump.

So what % of the vote do they hold? Will the uptick in the Black and Latino vote make them even a blip on the radar?


That would be anyone's guess I suppose, but for a movement that began just in May it seems to be gaining supporters. Time will tell.

Not even close. There are always anti leader in any party. Mostly they are upset because they didn't get in on the gravy. IF they cared about the party instead of personal gain they would back The Donald to ensure the true enemy does not overrun the government.

Well you choose to see it that way while I do not. I do believe that there are some in the GOP who believe Trump is destroying the party, and are jumping off the bandwagon. Not sure what gravy you're referring to, if in association with the man in the photo I posted, he's worth a few million bucks and so is probably swimming in said gravy. Tell me, do you know who the man in the photo is?

And for clarity in my original thread post I mentioned that it was Republicans who voted for Trump in the past who will not be doing so in 2020, the photo was simply to educate pgs on the difference between a RINO and a rhino.

I'm curious, did you take the time to view any of the many videos linked in the site?

But you originally said RHINO in your first response, I simply corrected you, no harm no foul right? Just lending a hand. You don't really want me to run along do you? I mean it is you who seeks me out, correct? Na, I feel like hanging out here for a bit. It's Sunday my friend, relax and chill, enjoy the conversation. No need for such triggered hostility.

No hostility , but you obviously felt the need to correct me even though you understood exactly what I was saying and that I understood it . But thanks for your concern .

Oh no, I thought you did think the spelling was rhino. A handful of people have made the same mistake and I simply correct to save future embarrassment, just trying to lend a hand where I can. And you're more than welcome, I have your back. And yes, I definitely sensed hostility.

Yeah well, I've been around the "message board block" a few times. It's gonna take a lot more than what pgs has to say to rattle me. He's fills the standard role of antagonist on any message board, they're fun to get a rise out of if nothing else.
