Okay, #NeverTrump, Enough Already
American Thinker ^ | May 10, 2016 | Jack Cashill

Posted on 05/10/2016 6:59:16 AM PDT by libstripper

To be clear, I donated to the Cruz campaign, advised the campaign, and voted for Ted Cruz in the Missouri primary. That said, I never criticized Donald Trump in public. My reasoning was simple enough: I planned to vote for him if he won the nomination. Having written a few books about the Clintons, I knew the alternative much too well.

This is the most complete, best written description of how and why the #NeverTrump people are both dead wrong and profoundly destructive I have read to date. Please rad it.

Thanks, but I don’t need someone else’s analysis to tell me that the NeverTrump people are a bunch of stupid destructive jackasses. I kind of figured that our from the getgo.

The #NeverTrump people are emotionally arrested in about the 8th. or 9th. grade.

They are the ones who have been running our only opposition party.

THAT right there is your problem.

I don’t have to read all of it to know that I agree with him. I am a member of “anybody but Hillary”!

How?

I voted for Cruz. Would do it again. But at this point, the deal is closed. And to all of the NeverTrumps … look at it like this - sure, he’s wrong on some conservative issues. But Hillary is wrong on EVERY conservative issue. Who would you rather have in office, that one wrong on some issues or the one wrong on every issue?

I know which one I’d choose.

The Never Trump movement isn't interested in helping Republicans. It's interested in virtue signaling and trying to extract revenge after its profound failure.

I think they know exactly what they are doing. They prefer Crooked Hillary, because that keeps the status quo within the party, and allows for amnesty. And they can blame Trump’s “populism” (nationalism) and discredit it in the future. They know if they come out and support Crooked Hillary their reputations and careers as professional conservatives will be ruined permanently. So they pretend to be against both, knowing they are helping her thighness become queen, er, president.

“I am a member of “anybody but Hillary”!”..........

Geeeeeeeeeesh! Did you forget about “Bernie”? Hitlary or him, either way, if they get the nod, we all lose.

I dont even understand what they are angry about?

I can get if Trump won by steal delegates and crowing about how “it’s in the rules”,

But these people are just PO’d at the fact that the voters did not subscribe to the idea that Cruz was entitled to the nomination, so they (the so-called true conservatives) are going to help Hillary.

I realized that people who would rather post nasty memes about Trump than sweet reminisces about their moms were not sane enough for Jack World. I started “unfollowing” them.

I did the same thing.

Do you really think that the Clinton cartel would not pull a hit job on Bernie if he actually beat her? Fort Marcy Park is still available. She probably regrets that she didn't do it to Obama.

How much did the pro-life cause advance when the GOP held the House, Senate, and Presidency under GW Bush?

Not much, that’s why I’m asking why Trump would do better. He doesn’t seem interested in social issues.

And they're constantly attempting to spread their umbrage on Free Republic.
