Glenn Beck on opposing Trump: It's the "moral, ethical choice"
CBS News ^ | Oct. 12, 2016

Posted on 10/12/2016 8:40:42 AM PDT by Rennes Templar

Conservative political commentator and former Fox News personality Glenn Beck said that opposing GOP nominee Donald Trump is the “moral, ethical choice” -- even if it that inadvertently leads to supporting Hillary.

“It is not acceptable to ask a moral, dignified man to cast his vote to help elect an immoral man who is absent decency or dignity,” he wrote in a Facebook over the weekend. “ If one helps to elect an immoral man to the highest office, then one is merely validating his immorality, lewdness, and depravity.”

Beck’s comments follow a tumultuous week for the Trump campaign in which dozens of Republicans have either publicly denounced or rescinded their endorsements for their party leader after the release of a video showing Trump making sexually demeaning comments towards women. Unlike many of those in his party, Beck, however, has been an outspoken critic of the business mogul from the very beginning--supporting, instead, Sen. Ted Cruz, R-Texas, in the primaries. In a recent interview with Vice, Beck said he had briefly considered voting for Mrs. Clinton, but said that he “could never.”

But he also added this in his Facebook post, “If she is elected, the world does not end.... Once elected, Hillary can be fought. Her tactics are blatant and juvenile, and battling her by means of political and procedural maneuvering or through the media , through public marches and online articles, all of that will be moral, worthy of man of principal. Her nominees can be blocked, her proposed laws voted down.”

In a post on his website, Beck clarified his remarks about Clinton, saying it doesn’t mean he’s endorsing or voting for her. . If the election were today, he said, he would vote for Darrell Castle of the Constitution Party, but that it’s “subject to change.”

Beck has jumped and now a Hillary supporter

Wait until Beck realizes that Hillary is a worse subversive than Alinsky was.

As if Beck never bragged in a locker room, lol. What a hypocrite. He’s gone so far right that he’d ended up flat dab in the middle of the left. Sure, Beck, vote for the America hater and her rapist side kick.

If nothing else, my vote will cancel his.

That must be Soros and his money talking.

Remember when he got the invite to meet with the Soros guy and then told us how he faced down the"spooky dude" threat? It wasn't all that much later that Soros sort of disappeared from Glenn's radar.

“... all of the phony conservatives will be out screaming how we have to stop her agenda!”

And trying to make money with their books, magazines and radio/TV shows while “fighting” (what a joke) to stop her agenda.

It’s getting close to time for a moritorium on all Glenn Beck posts. He’s irrelevant, and crazy, and getting way too many articles here.

Has anyone checked the Mormon Planet Registry to see if Beck has been awarded his very own one to rule over?

Tne sanctimonious ooze slathering of Glenn Beck pushes him right up there to Swamp Thing level.

I think Beck being on CBS reflects how scared they are.

Beck has some serious skeletons in his closet.

He is paranoid of Police getting access to his work place or studio, per a former employee.

Tick-Tock.

I had concerns about you know who and kept quiet until Beck and you know who, and MeGyn went after Trump during the Iowa Caucus and pre debate bs.

Then, it became obvious that Beck, you know who, Megyn, Faux, ABCNNBCBS, the Compost and NY Slimes would do anything to defeat Trump in the primaries.

They were afraid of him then, and now, they live in fear of him becoming our president.

I wish our local station would dump him and put Laura Ingraham back on the air.

He would rather see Satan’s minions seated in the Oval Office than support a man who was a sinner. Makes perfect sense to me.
