Krauthammer: As of Now, ‘I Don’t Think I’d Be Capable of Voting for Donald Trump’ [tr]
Breitbart ^ | May 3, 2016 | Ian Hatchett

Columnist Charles Krauthammer argued that the GOP is “being led by a non-conservative populist” and that from what he’s seen so far, “I don’t think I’d be capable of voting for Donald Trump” on Tuesday’s “O’Reilly Factor” on the Fox News Channel.

Krauthammer needs to work on his intestinal fortitude, then.

What Krauthammer and all the rest of the never Trump people need to understand is that at this point it is either Trump or Hillary.

We absolutely know, with metaphysical certainty, that Hillary Clinton will give us absolutely nothing that we want or need as a nation. She will be Obama’s third term. On the other hand, Donald Trump will secure our borders, and restore some degree of sanity to our immigration policy. He will go after ISIS and other terrorist groups - in fact comma for the first time in 8 years you will actually have a president who calls what is going on around the world “Islamic terrorism.” He will try to restore some degree of fiscal sanity to our federal budget. He will beef up our national defense. He will have a firm hand in foreign policy, not allowing our enemies to push us around. He will massively cut regulations, and try to alter our tax code such that companies will not see as much of a reason to relocate overseas; in fact, maybe he will even bring some jobs back that have gone offshore. He will make sure that the Veterans Administration actually takes care of our veterans. There is a chance that he will nominate some reasonably conservative justices to the Supreme Court. He will ensure that this nation is energy independent for the first time in fifty years.

So the choice is between Obama’s third term and someone who will implement a lot of very important improvements in our policies, improvements that will get this country back on the right track. People have to get around the idea that you elect someone who is perfect or no one at all. “My way or the highway” is only a recipe for having people like Obama and Clinton in office. Politics is all about compromise. No one likes to do it, but if you can get 70% of what you want you should be happy, and build on that base for round two of the fight. Krauthammer and his ilk are like a bunch of spoiled little children, and I am sick and tired of them.

“They don’t call him ‘KrapHammer’ for nothing.”

Krapholler is a Liberal who has developed a “conservative schtick” as an artifice for gaining a pay check!

These smarter than the rest of us crowd, are embarrassed. These “experts” have been proven WRONG. They need a little time to come around. They will, eventually.

GOP establishment in 2008 and 2012: "You didn't get your guy as the nominee, so what? This is about the country! Man up, hold your nose and do the right thing!"

GOP establishment in 2016: "Wait, what? we didn't get our guy? Well screw that, we're out!"

Memo to Charles:

I will make sure to get to the polls and vote Donald to cancel your vote for Hillary out. I still blame you and all the other pointy brain deadheads in the fishbowl for Obama.

But the bat-crap crazy McCain, with the hair-trigger temper, he was OK, right?

Sounds like Krauthammer, raised and educated in Montreal, can't get over the pain of his fellow Canadian's defeat. Alas.

If anyone thinks Krauthammer is bad, check out all the sanctimonious gasbaggery on NRO and RedState.

A non vote for Trump is an affirmative vote for Hillary.

Given the choice of voting for President either a patriotic American or a felonious, lying, traitorous, bribed crook who sells herself to the highest bidder and likely planted Vince Foster under a handy cannon after lunch I would take the patriotic American, Charles. But, that’s just me. Your vision of a President obviously varies, Charles.

Since when did Craphammer become a principled conservative. He is establishment to the core and backed McCain, Romney, etc. Now, he has principles?

Krauthammer over analyzes and over intellectualizes everything. I’m beginning to think Doctor K himself needs to see a psychiatrist. lol

I can’t listen to his vapid drivel anymore.

I always vote for the most conservative person in the race.

At this point, because the choices are so bad, the most conservative sadly appears to be Gary Johnson, the libertarian loon governor of NM.
