You appear to be trapped in a time warp. The "who else are you going to vote for" days are over. That thinking is what brought us to this point in our history. We surrendered the power of our vote to the "lesser of two evils" fallacy. No more.

This is about a return to peace, prosperity, freedom and strength. AND, it’s about uprooting a deep administrative state that has grown into a monster totalitarian Uniparty.

If the Totalitarians among us are successful in stopping Trump from running, the Republic is done.

The only chance of rebuilding will be to crush the Republican Party -— from top to bottom -— and clear the way for a true opposition party.

???? So  -- you're trapped in a time warp because the only person whom you feel that we should vote for is Trump because there is no one else.  Sigh.  Those days are over.

As I've stated before, IMHO unless we are able to seat a true conservative our Republic is over.  The only one right now that meets that criteria is DeSantis -- maybe Scott. Haley is pushing for a VP spot with Trump.  Christie is a liberal through and through and Ramsy is another O'Bammy.

Certainly as I've said before, Brandon and Chuckles aren't going to be the DEM ticket.  This country is in very deep trouble.
Romans 12:16-21

Live in harmony with one another; do not be haughty, but associate with the lowly, do not claim to be wiser than you are.  Do not repay anyone evil for evil, but take thought for what is noble in the sight of all.  If it is possible, so far as it depends on you, live peaceably with all…do not be overcome by evil, but overcome evil with good.

If brainwashed, personality cult MAGA acolytes would rather sit at home and not vote for ANY Republican over ANY Democrat, then they deserve the disaster that will ensue.

Even though they will, like their Golden Child, blame it on everyone but themselves. 

Disaster becomes tragedy when it need not have happened, but for human frailties.
"The most terrifying force of death, comes from the hands of Men who wanted to be left Alone. They try, so very hard, to mind their own business and provide for themselves and those they love. They resist every impulse to fight back, knowing the forced and permanent change of life that will come from it. They know, that the moment they fight back, their lives as they have lived them, are over. -Alexander Solzhenitsyn

No government in the 12,000 years of modern mankind history has led its people into anything but the history books with a simple lesson, don't let this happen to you.

RiV is basically saying that Trump neither needs nor wants votes from anyone who isn't a 100% Trumper, and that folks shouldn't vote for Trump just because he's the lesser of two evils compared to the Dem nominee.

I'm good with that.

They are no different from NY and SF liberals who vote for cashless bail and defunding the police and then scream when they are the victims of crime.
If a political party does not have its foundation in the determination to advance a cause that is right and that is moral, then it is not a political party; it is merely a conspiracy to seize power.     -Dwight Eisenhower-

"The [U.S.] Constitution is a limitation on the government, not on private individuals ... it does not prescribe the conduct of private individuals, only the conduct of the government ... it is not a charter for government power, but a charter of the citizen's protection against the government."     -Ayn Rand-
