Wrong. There are quite a lot more than 8 -- at least 37 (that is a low, informal count, but a certain tally) who've been courageous enough to say so in the face of guaranteed hostile reaction here, and that is not counting Republicans I know outside of FR who will simply decline to vote for Trump.

Now they will be even less inclined to state their real opinions and intent, which means that FR will be even less inclined to reflect the TRUE sentiments of conservatives who come here to speak freely -- they cannot speak freely.

It's just like there were quite a lot more than 8 in 2012 -- there were literally hundreds of people here who declared they'd not vote for Romney in the general. They weren't making a threat, they were communicating what they would do if Romney won the nomination: snub him in the general because they refused to vote for functional Democrat leftists regardless of party affiliation.

It is what it is.

No, there are about 8-10 rabid posters who post the same articles over and over and over under different titles. Some of them only show up every 4 years to crap on the site.

Not to mention the ones who call other FReepers stupid, childish names, while never defending their position, only tearing others down.

JimRob has been more than tolerant with everybody, but it seems it is taking its toll on everybody.

I suggest you take up your objections with the owner of the site. Not me.

A lot of people I talk to will not vote for Trump in the general if he is the nominee. I have been surprised how much people dislike him. Trump cant beat any democrat. If Bloomberg runs as an independent he might actually have a shot.

I voted for McCain but couldn’t vote for Romney and I won’t ever vote for Trump.

What a brilliant plan that was! We ended up with Obama -----> Benghazi, Hands up don't shoot, and many other insane things as a result of Obama not being stopped.

Again, I say brilliant plan, Buckoo.
