Test?

Seems “Test” is an approved post.

Forgive me for perplexing you with my "test" message. I had drafted a complete response to your reply the gist of which was that I approve of much of what you said and took exception only to identifying Mark Levin as a "never trump." I noted that on that very day Levin had repeated an observation that he had made several times to the effect that he would "probably" vote for Trump. I, for example, have repeatedly said that I would "certainly" vote for Trump.

I put neither of us in the "never trump" category.

I was not sure whether that reply had been sent into cyberspace upon pressing the "post" button because my posts, for a reason I do not know and have not been apprised of, are being held back for undetermined periods of time so I sent out a reply styled "test" after waiting about 20 hours to learn whether I had been zotted again or whether I had negligently omitted to push the "post" button . I would have sent you a private message to explain but my private mail privilege has been suspended.

Thank you for a reasoned reply without resorting to personal innuendo concerning this issue.

How have you come to know what is going on with my ability to post replies?

I’m not certain, but I went through a ‘moderation’ sometime back that may have been similar.

Thanks for clarifying that neither you or Mark is a neverTrump - it makes all the difference in the world, as I have absolutely no problem at all with criticisms of Trump, my problem is only with the neverTrump position. I thought I had very recently heard Levin say he couldn’t support either candidate (Trump or Clinton), but come to think of it, it was Medved, not Levin!

So sorry for jumping to the wrong conclusion. In my own defense though, I really think Levin should be more clear with his audience if he is not a neverTrump. He should not use the word “probably” with regard to voting for the Republican nominee.

He should have no problem being absolutely certain he will vote for Trump if for no other reason than to vote against Hillary Clinton. It’s fine to say he wanted Cruz and that he’s really dissappointed Cruz didn’t win, but that should be followed by a strong statement on the importance of voting for the Republican anyway.

His anti Trump message is too easy to confuse with a never Trump message. He has a lot of followers - I’d hate to see them get the wrong idea.
