President Clinton? That’s fine. They told me the same thing with McCain and Romney. You Trump people can’t blackmail me into voting for yet another GOP liberal like Trump by using the scare tactics of the threat of another Dem presidency. You want to nominate another liberal/moderate like Little Donald? Go ahead. Just don’t count on conservatives to carry your water for you YET AGAIN at the ballot box. Romney was one time too many. Trump doesn’t get my vote.
With all due respect, I am not trying to blackmail you into anything. Just saying that if you vote libertarian, you are ushering in the Democrat.
You think Trump is the liberal, then I ask why is everyone—including the moderates (who I call GOPe) against him...like Romney, Gramnesty, Bush, and McCain...
I would encourage you to reconsider you stance on Trump. I don’t know your politics...But for me the fact that Phyllis Schlafly, the “Margaret Thatcher” of American Conservatism, endorsed Trump spoke volumes to me...She is 91. She has no ulterior motive for endorsing him...She believes he is the candidate that will change the status quo. She has been fighting for conservative values since I was a kid. When my kids were little and I was fighting local school systems to fight liberal sex ed curriculums, who did I turn to? Phyllis Schlafly...To me, her endorsement was huge. In addition, Jeff Sessions, the stalwart against illegal immigration and H-1B visa abuse, endorsed Trump—not Cruz. IMHO immigration issues are the largest threats to our country and our future.
Normally, I am not a huge endorsement person, but the fact that those two plus Sarah Palin and Pat Robertson make me feel that my decision to support Trump is good.
If you look at my tag line, I would like to elaborate...to me the election this time around is about more than Democrat versus Republican or Liberal versus Conservative...It is really about Liberty versus Tyranny and National Sovereignty versus Globalism...
Vote for who you wish, but I do apologize and do not want you to feel blackmailed into voting for anyone.
Thanks for your polite and considerate reply. If Immigration were my #1 issue, perhaps I would consider Trump, but it is not. The size and scope of government is, and Trump has some positions related to that that are troubling to me. If not voting Trump ushers in another Democrat, so be it, but I am not going to vote for another moderate Republican. If Trump truly brings over as many Democrats as the Trump people think, then he can win just fine without us conservatives, and at least my conscience will be clear knowing I didn’t have to hold my nose and vote moderate GOP yet again.
