If you like your Republican, you should keep your Republican.
Tens of millions of Americans have mailed in their ballots already. Tomorrow, tens of millions more will go to the polls. I’m not confident how they’ll vote, but I am absolutely certain of one thing: Not one of them will see the name “Donald Trump” on the ballot.
Instead, they will see different individuals with characters very different from Trump’s. They will see Republicans and Democrats with their own policy positions and their own rhetorical styles.
Yet now voices from the left, the center, and what can only be called the “former right” are calling on Republicans and conservatives to abandon any kind of individualized determination for the sake of opposing a man who isn’t on the ballot. They’re making that demand even as leading Democrats prove time and again that they will not moderate for the benefit of Republicans who change parties, will not compromise, and — crucially — will not even behave better than Trump himself.
In other words, they are asking for your political capitulation without earning your support.

at the national review, no one can hear you scream
No one cares what this guy thinks.
No one cares what NR thinks.
Even the idiots at National Review can finally see that meeting the Democrats half-way in the destruction of the country is folly.
NeverTrumper who sort of opposes Democrats.
good article thanks
NR, the brain child of the conservative movement, William F Buckley, while not what it was under him, was driving force that helped get Reagan to power and is still a bedrock of conservative thought and action. Just because they didn’t initially like Trump is no reason to slam them everytime.
“Tuesday, however, is going to be the RINOs’ revenge. Romney-loving RINOs are coming out of their preserves with fire in their hearts and a gleam in their eyes. They are decked out in hunting gear of their own, and their prey is the Trump-backing, change-seeking GOP. They might not be able to win primaries anymore, but in league with their new friends, the Democrats, they are eager to take down some big game of their own. And they will...
...The GOP has been a minority for 86 years. And it will remain so as long as the GOP implicitly tells Americans that one group is better than another, whether that group is businesspeople, whites, evangelical Christians, or liberty-lovers.” - Tomorrow the RINOs Will Take Their Revenge by Henry Olsen

Isn’t he the goofball that Kristol tried to have run against Trump? What a maroon.
BTW - I’m old enough to remember looking forward to each issue of National Review coming in the mail. Now they believe in “No Illegal Immigrant Left Behind!”

Wow, this guy is a freakin’ genius.
a never trumper
Yuk...this RINO is simply writing a thinly disguised description of his RINO wet dreams for tomorrow’s election results. I think those dreams will be unrequited.
Traitor
Do you want the Democrats to prevail over the Republicans just so you can sock it to the “RINOs”?
TECTopcat, give it up. You're dealing with cultists. Conservatives aren't supposed to be cultists. :(

Ahh...did I say that or even imply that?
Sorry, I was definitely not clear. I was referring to the writer of the NR article linked in post 7 above.
OK. I see. Sorry. :(
