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follow a tumultuous week for the Trump campaign in which dozens of Republicans have either publicly denounced or rescinded their endorsements for their party leader after the release of a video showing Trump making sexually demeaning comments towards women.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 is now the voice of a disenfranchised lunatic fringe.”
Yes and he’s going to lose those three people soon too.
There is nothing ethical or moral about electing a lawless dictator wanna be with a proven track record of corruption and incompetence. There is no rational, logical, reasonable argument to be made for Clinton.
Beck is done. His illness apparently has destroyed his mental facilities.
I can’t wait until this son of a female dog goes bankrupt. Does anyone actually listen to his show anymore?
Beck is an attention whore and (failed) businessman. He clearly feels Hillary Criminal will be better for his business than Trump. More money in opposing her than Trump. What scum.
Mr Beck is truly confused....Donald Trump is a SAINT compared to Hillary Clinton, a political whore, criminal and liar.
I’m going to celebrate when his business goes belly-up.
The choice is Trump or Hillary.
I would vote for pretty much anyone over Hillary unless the choice was satan - and that would be almost a coin toss.
What is so “moral” about inflicting an unrestrained Hillary on the nation to punish Trump for something he thought he said in private 11 years ago, while giving Hillary a free pass?
Stabby the Clown, Cruz’s crazy Mormon moron butt buddy, has spoken.
FU Beck. I’m glad you’re going broke.
Here are thoughts that he inspired--obviously unintentionally.
2. Without wasting effort by trying to name the most contemptible Trump detractor--or diverting attention from the issues crucial to the very survival of America--we need to put into juxtaposition, the insane narrative of the prissy poseurs, as a class, with the issues that are crucial to any American future. Can anyone, that is any rational person, suggest that Donald Trump's mistake in letting a recounting of a sexual fantasy, eleven years ago, be recorded, is 1/100,000th as important as any of a half dozen issues, where he is for America & Hillary Clinton is not.
3. Again, not getting into wasting time, or building a specific barrier against any sanctimonious twit returning to the cause, as a reformed prodigal; we must organize discussions that compare priorities. The more that we focus on what is really important, the stupider & less principled the sanctimonious twits will sound--and the more certain their comeuppance on November 8th.
Damn the pseudo intellectual poseurs--for that is what they truly are;--Damn the liars & Damn the lies! Full speed ahead. Trump to the White House!
Not if there are three new libtard supreme court justices. Not if the country is flooded with illegal aliens and mohammedums. He is just a sore loser who is wallowing in his self pity and sanctimonious holier-than-thou attitude.
Myslef and my wife liked Carson. Then came the Iowa thing. Then we took a long look at Cruz, then came the Becky thing.
I asked every single Cruz supporter on here that would listen to get that SOB away from the Cruz campaign. That bastard is death walking to anyone close to him.
SOB is an snake.
Yeah, Glenn. Because when I hear the words moral and ethical, the first person I think of is Hillary Clinton. /s
What a Dumb A**.
Dunce.
I am ashamed I bought one of his books.
Hey lighten up, just having a little fun with Glenn.
I can’t wait for that day. He needs to go away.
That is what this is about.
Stopping Trump is about keeping the Cheap Labor Express running.
A Breitbart network with Hannity and Dobbs anchoring it would be a home run. We need an alternative to Fox/CNN/etc.
Beck is a head case. A good study for a shrink doing research : )
It’s the last gasp of an almost dead empire.
Good riddance to Beck.
