I watched my old FRiend the_doc get zotted for merely stating that he would not vote for Trump in the general election.

That "NeverTrump. That's a vote for Hillary. Jim admonished FR members not to adopt that position. I agree with Jim.

So, fair enough. The_doc chose poorly, and he provoked JimRob.

I'm sure he'll be back after he comes back to his senses.

Because refusing to vote for Trump, and thereby helping Hillary, is counterproductive, insane, whatever you'd like to call it. I call it dead wrong.

It would have been easy enough for him to keep that opinion to himself if he knew it would antagonize JimRob (and he did know that)...

Vote Trump

So despite the fact that I live in a state that is so solid blue as to be off the spectrum and my vote won’t count for anything, if I say that I am absolutely not going to vote for Trump in the general because..... (whatever reason) that I should be zotted?

I frankly admire people who stand on principle even when I believe they are wrong. The last time I violated my pro-life principles was when I voted for Arnold Schwarzenegger for Governor.

I have to answer to God for that mistake.

If Donald Trump wavers on his pro-life stand, or otherwise starts showing that he is not the conservative that we have been told he is, then no, I will not vote for him.

If that gets me zotted, then so be it. I expect the man that I vote for to be principled and solid. My vote (for all it is worth) is sacred. Donald Trump will have to earn my vote.

Mark Levin has not been zotted. His account is still active.
