Erickson: If GOP Is Going in Trump’s Direction, ‘I’m Not A Republican Anymore’
www.breitbart.com ^ | 23 May 2016 | Pam Key

Posted on 05/25/2016 6:48:14 AM PDT by kddid

Monday on Yahoo Global News ardent “Never Trump” activist and conservative blogger Erick Erickson said he can not vote for presumptive Republican presidential nominee Donald Trump. Erickson said, “If the Republican Party wants to go in his direction, I guess I’m not a Republican anymore. I never signed a party oath.”

...

I think Hillary Clinton is unfit for the office as well, but she certainly does have the qualifications.” He added he would not vote for Clinton as well, adding, “I find them both appalling.”

My heart is just breaking(sarc). Who really cares what Erick Erickson says or does. Like so many of the never Trump crowd he is just a self-important turd. Good bye and good riddance to all of them.

It is sad when one overestimates their own importance. EE reminds me of the kid who threatens to hold his breath if he doesn’t get his way. The only difference is the adults are saying “go ahead, use a pillow too”

"...I find them both appalling..."

Hey, Erikson, you might want look at yourself in the mirror and then listen to the drivel you are spewing. Then you might realize why the rest of us think you are the one that is appalling.

No one likes a self-absorbed, arrogant-like-Bill-Kristol whiner who wants to take their marbles and run home to mommy crying about how everybody is so unfair to them. Good riddance as far as I can tell.

Bye Felicia.... What a fool, I hope no one even listens to this idiot and he loses his small contingent of followers. Turn him off before he has us all being thrown in Gitmo by Queen Hillary.

You have seized upn the most revealing of the drama queen's comments. Hillary is pathetically unqualified to hold high office, unless moral integrity means nothing; unless loyalty to country means nothing; unless understanding how a successful civil society functions means nothing.

Erickson has demonstrated that he is the sort of "intellect," who has allowed the "politically correct" bully types to totally control his ability to recognize legitimate issues. Trump is far, far truer Conservative than Erickson:

Trump: Metaphor For American Conservatism.

And Trump is not intimidated by pseudo intellectual quackery!

That is what has gotten this crowd into the trouble they're in.

All these "influential" anti-Trump republicans thought so much of themselves that they believed when they spoke, the republican electorate would have to listen and obey. It would be the natural response.

Instead, they learned that people simply don't care about what they have to say, and since they make their living being "people who are listened to" it has to hurt.

Imagine how disconnected from reality one must be to tout Mitt Romney as the "conservative alternative" to Donald Trump. Mitt Romney, for God's sake.

It's not Donald Trump that has them so butt-hurt. It's the realization that they simply aren't important.

Well at least Beck has stated he was wrong about Trump. That said Beck jumped the shark long before this election cycle.

"I think Hillary Clinton is unfit for the office as well" and "but she certainly does have the qualifications.” seems contradictory and unnecessary to the point.

"No Person except a natural born Citizen, or a Citizen of the United States, at the time of the Adoption of this Constitution, shall be eligible to the Office of President; neither shall any Person be eligible to that Office who shall not have attained to the Age of thirty five Years, and been fourteen Years a Resident within the United States." - Article II, Section 1, Clause 5

I wouldn't flip a coin with either of them.

Trump will publicly and repeatedly humiliate Clinton. She can't just take it stoically because that looks and is weak. She'll try to fire back but she doesn't have the arse or the mouth for it and besides Trump is shameless and incapable of embarrassment. God forgive me when I am pruriently entertained by it.

Deface the uniparty political currency.

And I seriously doubt you were even remotely a Christian even with all your Christian blather.

BTW - I stopped listening to your AM 750 WSB talk show over a year ago. You may be subbing for Rush but I don’t know cuz Rush got kicked to the curb as did you.

Erick, say adios, and go with your counterpart Beck on a fast until after the election in November.

Erick, you have enough blubber to last until Trump is sworn in as president next year.

If the GOP returns to Nationalism and rejects Globalism is what he is really saying.
