President of Iowa Republican women's group resigns over Trump

By Louis Nelson

The president of the Iowa Federation of Republican Women resigned Tuesday night, writing in a statement that she “cannot support Donald J. Trump for president, nor can I advocate for his election.”

“I feel that I cannot adequately fulfill the duties of my position,” Melissa Gesing wrote in her resignation letter, which she also published on Twitter. “I am still a republican and plan to work hard for our down ballot GOP candidates."

The Iowa FRW is a tax-exempt 527 organization made up of women whose mission is "to elect Republicans at all levels of government with Trump as our party’s nominee."

I think Melissa was a FB friend at one point in the political days, if I recall she was fairly evangelical and tea party and has a couple of daughters. Not surprised she'd dump Trump over this latest stuff.
The Republic is lost.

 Can anyone recall any election that unraveled this bad this close to the election ?  Even Jimmy Carter and George Herbert Walker Bush were still competitive at this point
I have little interest in streamlining government or in making it more efficient, for I mean to reduce its size. I do not undertake to promote welfare, for I propose to extend freedom. My aim is not to pass laws, but to repeal them.
