No.

Maybe your time would be better spent on the moderator-protected Trump Family Train threads where only glowing worship of Trump is permitted.

I hope he beats Kamala but I'm not going to champion him as some rock-ribbed conservative that he's never been and doesn't pretend to be.

That is true. But on balance, he says and does enough things with which I agree, I’ll support him. Abortion excepted.

AGREED. I simply cannot stand Trump as a human being. He made his glory as a billionaire playboy on the Howard Stern Show. He treats women like Kleenex -- use one, throw it away & presto! Another one just like it pops up in its place.

He cheated on every wife he's ever had with the next one. And with several other women as well. And he treated them all like Kleenex. Each one of those women is somebody's daughter. Somebody's sister. Somebody's best friend. If that man was my next door neighbor for the past 30 years, we would STILL not be friends.

But I also have a degree in political science & another in statistical analysis. I've been fortunate to have employers who let me accumulate my vacation days & take them all at once, every two years. I have worked as a polling analyst for two months (Labor Day to Election Day) every two years, for a GOP congressional campaign, ever since 1978.

And in politics, you usually have to choose the lesser of two evils. In 2016, 2020 & again in 2024, I am being forced to hold my nose & vote for Donald Trump. Because, just like the last two times, the alternative -- eight years of that Democratic Party Deep State piece of shit -- is too terrible to contemplate.

And the Democratic Party Deep State propaganda network, formerly known as "news media," will make Goddamn sure that it's eight years, not four. They actually swapped out Dementia Joe without batting an eye, so this time it'll be 12 years.

They let Bill Clinton get away with treating women like Kleenex. So I'm gonna let Trump get away with it too. The alternative is too terrible to contemplate.

“I’m not going to champion him as some rock-ribbed conservative that he’s never been and doesn’t pretend to be.”

No one’s asking you to. In order to get elected he has to appeal to more than “rock-ribbed conservatives” who make up 5-10% of the electorate.

Anti-Trump trolls like you always use the same tired old straw man argument -that Trump is not a conservative.

You don’t hear REAL conservatives complaining about that - we just want to see someone who is not a globalist get elected for a change - and so we aren’t going to hold his feet to the fire.

It’s always the Trump-hating fake conservatives who complain about Trump not being conservative enough. You aren’t fooling anyone.
