From the article: Donald Trump is the Republican presumptive nominee, but ... you'll read articles urging voters never to support him. Ignore them.
Many of these Trump opponents are principled people. Some fear Trump, ... they believe ... that America and its institutions, ... cannot endure a Trump presidency....
... Trump's most vocal opponents -- prefer a president they can control... Trump is a wild card, and in a race between the devil they know and the one they don't, they'll take Hillary Clinton every time. Another four years of a Democratic president is, after all, good for business. And they aren't hiding it. Some ... have already declared themselves "Ready for Hillary."
... These anti-Trump factions ask Americans to withhold their vote or call on the GOP to commit mass political suicide and pursue a ... more "mainstream" candidate.... even though Trump has swept to victory in states as diverse as Alabama and Massachusetts, and even though mass defections ... will hand the election to Clinton and the Democrats.
Those who argue that another Clinton White House is somehow preferable to ... Trump are blind to the consequences -- for the nation, for the party and for the conservative movement.
A Clinton presidency means a Supreme Court with ... maybe three new liberal justices.
It means a doubling down on the Obama foreign policy that fostered the resurgence of a belligerent Russia, the rise of ISIS and chaos across the Middle East.
It means government agencies from the EPA, IRS, DHS, ... staffed by Clinton appointees, enshrining the executive overreach of the Obama administration into law.
... it means liberalism in ascendancy. We cannot allow GOP elites to hand the future to an increasingly leftist Democratic Party. The country simply has too much to lose. Trump's voters understand that.
