Hillary

Why are you setting back the cause of true conservatism for perhaps a decade and maybe for a generation?

Why are you excusing behavior that you have excoriated in Democrats?

Why are you causing a stain on the cause of Christianity by making it possible for the world to paint you as an utter and complete hypocrite?

I do not understand this. I can understand people holding their noses and saying, “I just can’t vote for Hillary.  I will burst into flames if I do that.” Or saying, “I’ll vote for a third-party candidate.” I don’t agree with people who say that, as anyone who reads this blog knows. I’ve made my own position abundantly clear. But I can sympathize, to a certain extent.

Short answer: No.

Longer answer: Of course not. It’s too much work. And he never intended to get this far, anyway.

I’ve been thinking quite a bit about how I formed my own NeverTrump stand and my decision to vote for Hillary Clinton as a way to keep Trump out of the White House. Three key pieces formed the base of the pyramid, as it were:

First, a family member said that if Trump were to be nominated that he would vote for Hillary, that he had voted for third-party candidates in the past as protest votes but that this time the risk was too great. Woa! I thought. Saying that takes some nerve in our circles. This was right at the end of March.
