Most won’t go on record either way just yet. I believe Ben Shapiro calls himself a sometimes Trumper now, but he could turn on a dime, again.
Right now, at this very important and fragile time in history, a Never Trumper is nothing but a real and true Communist Sympathizer who is aiding and abetting the advance of communism...
They can go to hell.
We are more likely to get conservative judges under Trump. We are more likely to have a strong military. We are more likely to have a business friendly economy. We are more likely to have secure borders. Better trade deals. Less abortion. Trump is the last best hope for conservative values in this country. Never Trumpers should not blow it for us.
You vote for him, your republic exists. You don’t vote for him, the country is gone. Simple as that.
Never Trumpers are dems in rino clothing.
You may not like the man, may disagree with what he does and how he does it, but voting against him is voting for Biden.
I voted for Trump in 2016. And I will do so again in 2020. He really is the last hope for this country. Should Biden - or a Biden substitute - win in 2020, it’s all over but the crying.
But don’t expect some Never-Trumper to respond to your request. Any such person would be crazy to do so. Because Free Republic has too often degenerated into a name-calling forum.
Consider the current police controversy. If you post a pro-police comment, you are a boot-licker. But if you post an anti-police comment, you are an anarchist.
Tis a shame. Because a good, polite conservative conversation can be both interesting and helpful.
Miserable SOB, don’t come crying after Biden drives the US straight to Hell.
I've never "loved" any of the Presidents who've served in my lifetime...but I've greatly respected at least two...Reagan and Trump.
Never trumpers are looking to take control of the party back they absolutely hate the working class in this country the leader of the never trump movement Bill Kristol all but said this a few years back when he stated the Republican Party is the party of kings and why they
Push so much for amnesty on immigration issues ...they would soon see this party crash and burn and have like 20 seats in the house just as long as they control those 20 seats and let the working class just wither on the vine
When I discuss this with Nevertrumpers I explain we have a two party system. The election is not a referendum on Trump but a choice between two candidates. In my opinion Trump has made a way better President than Hillary ever would have even if I disagree with him on some issues.
Same issue in 2020, although the choice is even starker. The Dem base has become so radicalized and Biden is so weak if he even has all his faculties that if Biden wins and the Senate flips we would be in for a disastrous four years.
I wonder how the never Trumper’s would like to see the likes of a Stacy Abrahms or a Kamalla Harris ascend to the presidency.
Even the thought of that gives me the shivers.
I'm curious to see if they endorse Biden this year.
Jonah Goldberg comes to mind and IIRC, Meghan McCain and her reprehensible mother have already endorsed Biden.
The Lincoln Project is comprised of nothing but #NeverTrumpers, which include Tiny Scaramucci and FatSlob Mr Kellyanne Conway.
They don’t exist here
I would urge folks to think long and hard about their vote
this November. While I’m tired of hearing this line myself,
this is unquestionably the most important election in our
nation’s history.
We move in the direction of returning to our traditional
values, or we join with history’s other victims of the
Marxist ideology, something we and many of our family
members would not survive, since our nation wouldn’t.
If you’re looking for Never Trumpers, look no farther than
Washington, D. C., where over 90% of our creatures there
try real hard not to say a single thing that supports the
traditional Conservative values base.
I don’t have to qualify my comments with comments about
Trump’s rough edges. He’s a street fighter. If he wasn’t
he’d have been destroyed by now.
Victory isn’t pretty at times. It is simply something that
has to happen or else.
If Trump were not the street fighter he is, he would not
have revealed how deep the swamp is. He has revealed the
existence of it in the Senate, the House, our state houses,
our diplomatic core, our generals, the media...
The man is a master sage. I am simply amazed at what he has
accomplished, but never so much as I am at the lack of grasp
of what he HAS truly done.
Domestically, Internationally, this man has fought our
cause, and I’ll be eternally grateful for him having done
so.
As for what is taking place right now, it isn’t over. He
has used restraint. I don’t know if I would have done it
better. I’m a bit of a hot-head, and I may have made things
worse, not better.
I’m on board the Trump train, because it’s the only
Railroad headed in our direction.
Folks can jump off if they like, but there won’t be another
train going in this direction for the next 30-50 years, and
within five it would probably be too late anyway.
It is amazing how demonstrably ignorant some folks are.
We prayed to God for a Trump, and we’ve gotten exactly what
we asked for. Hardly anyone dared ask for a man this good.
We have him, and now we kvetch about rough edges.
I’m not a Never-Trumper, but I was a Never-Romney. I knew if Romney got in, that for ever and ever, all we would have for choices would be variations on Romney. The Never-Trump people who were concerned that he isn’t an avid reader, isn’t inclined to think in terms of over-arching philosophy, and has led a flamboyant life that wasn’t always culturally or religiously conservative, got on board when it was time, and many of us found that the man has exceptional instincts, remembers his friends, and loves his country and its place within a template of Western Civilization. He also knows how to fight and win in a way that Russell Kirk never could. The Never-Trump people who LIKED Romney’s liberal beliefs and practice sweetened with the aura of a conservatively led life and overall proper manners got conservativism wrong, just like the poor stupid Quebecers who thought their cultural identity was simply tied up with the French language, and not the values of their struggling parents and grandparents.
She is a Deep State counter mouthpiece. I wouldn't be surprised if we hear more from Trey Gowdy
I was a never Trumper through the 2016 election (although, I did NOT vote for sh!tlery).
But once he was elected, he was elected. I gave him the same chance as I gave the antichrist who immediately preceded him.
And my expectations were exceedingly low.
But whereas, the antichrist exceeded most of my fears, by mid-2017, I was quite pleasantly surprised by President Trump.
Don’t get me wrong - I don’t love the guy. I just don’t love politicians. I’m an American. I don’t want a king, or a daddy. I just want someone who runs the government of the United States competently, putting the interests of her citizens first.
But, previous to his huge follow-fau-Xi-down-the-rabbit-hole error, I thought he was doing a well-above average job. I hope can return to form.
So, I may not be the best person to answer questions on behalf of never Trumpers, as I’m clearly no longer one.
Because their supply of children to traffic and the supporting infrastructure is getting cut off.
