Yes the Leftists are bad, but the NeverTrumpers come in a close second.
They would have gladly accepted Hillary as president, so long as Trump didn’t get in.

I am a “Never Hillary”
I accept Trump as President, so long as Hillary didn’t get in
I understand the phenomenon

I am trying to warm up to Trump, but it is a struggle

I seem to have missed this response.

While you warm up, I believe you, many others, and the nation as a whole will benefit considerably.

“I am trying to warm up to Trump, but it is a struggle “


I’m glad that you accept him, and that you understood that Hillary was - by far - the worse candidate.

WRT Trump - you know, we’ve tried civility, working with the other side, etc. They those guys (Bush 43, McCain and Romney) were vilified and, in the last 2 cases, lost. Had we gone the same route and chosen a Kasich or a Jeb, we’d have lost again and Hillary would have completed the takeover of the government for the Left that her husband started, Bush 43 didn’t reverse enough of, and Obama worked hard to implement. You should, IMHO, be thankful for Trump, warts and all. Frankly, the warts - mainly his aggressive and competitive nature - are exactly what won him the election.

He is like Ulysses Grant - who was roundly criticized for drinking, etc. - in the sense that he FIGHTS. That is exactly what Lincoln said of Grant - that this was his most important characteristic, that none of the rest mattered. That’s because no one else on the Union side who was capable of leading armies actually wanted to fight the Confederacy. Trump fights - for US, because he has everything that anyone could ever want. I’ll take him, thank you very much, and enjoy the heck out of the utter apoplexy that the other side suffers from every time Trump says or tweets something.

Besides fighting, he’s actually accomplishing a LOT, and that over intense opposition from even within his own party. Wait until he’s unchained at some point, with ineffective Dem opposition and solid Rep. support - what he’ll do then will make everyone’s head spin. I’ll take the NYC aggressiveness with all of that, because we need to chalk up a few in the “Win” column for a change.
