Trump is at the top of the polls, and that may not change. Nevertheless, he will not receive my support. I am rather tired of a screeching establishment requiring that we support whomever is the current frontunner, and telling us we need to "get in line", like robots. That kind of talk is groupthink, much like Obamamania. It has no place in conservatism.
Trump is the kind of candidate who appeals to base emotions and the thirst for popular appeal. We should never treat candidates as celebrities. But increasingly, we do. I once thought that those on our side of the aisle were better than liberals in that we don't vote based on mindless, superficial reasons that got the similarly resume-challenged disaster known as Barack Obama into office. But unsurprisingly, we're just as capable of the same failure to treat the election process seriously.

What a brilliant plan that was! We ended up with Obama -----> Benghazi, Hands up don't shoot, and many other insane things as a result of Obama not being stopped.
Again, I say brilliant plan, Buckoo.
So this is going both directions, right. Trump supporters who say they would not vote for Cruz are out here too?
That would be foolish. Read my latest post.
Agreed.
Yep. That was one of the operatives. Thanks.
BTTT!
Agree! Bump!

You and nearly 4 million narcissists sat home and allowed Obama another term. Thanks a lot.
Iran thanks you. ISIS thanks you. The prisoners Obama swapped for Bo Bergdahl thanks you.
LOL.
Trump may not be a star conservative and is not my first choice, but neither was Bush, Dole, McCain, Romney, et al.
But I crawled over broken glass to vote for them against the commies.
Defeatism sickens me.
I wish Trump was stronger on social conservative issues but it is what it is.
And the choice wouldn’t be Trump or Hillary/Sanders
The choice would be Trump or more invasion.
Not a difficult choice this time around, IMO.
I was surprised to see someone from the class of 1998 do such a short opus.
Regarding his statement, We hear that same garbage every four years.
I do not think I have seen him/her/it before.

Don’t hold it in, Jim...
Don’t let the door hit you in the ass.
Thank you very much, and God bless you.
It has been posted almost everytime someone tries the 1790 gambit.
Mr. Robinson,
I have the utmost respect for you and your site. Please don’t take this as a sign of disrespect. But I have a question.
There are many many Freepers on this site that express the same opinions about not voting for the ultimate candidate. Some are very prolific posters. When I have refuted their opinion (last election cycle) about voting “principles” and not voting for the who might win...I have been called a troll, a sell out and having no scruples.
Will these people be banned as well?
I appreciate your post of a few days ago asking for civility. I seldom post here any more because it’s just to unruly. But things will get back to normal...eventually.
I just want to know where the line is.
