I just can't bring myself to cast a vote for Trump.  I'll vote down ballot instead, if I vote at all. I've not missed an election, but I'm thoroughly disgusted with the failure of the RNC and GOP to ensure election integrity. I'm to the realization that my vote doesn't mean a darn thing. Notta.
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.

Maybe if Trump has an epiphany in the months ahead by discovering that his own liberal policies not only led to a string of Republican defeats, but also completely trashed our economy, and out of that epiphany decides to adopt real Conservative policies that will put this nation back on track, then and only then will he get my vote.  But unfortunately, he has a cult of supporters who are more than happy with his current liberal policies, so there is really no incentive for him to change.

Not a chance, and the decision was easy this time.  I still regret voting for him in 2020.

Hard pass on the house and senate candidates also.  They would go along with anything he demanded, and would NEVER hold him accountable.

This is true. And any Congressional Republicans that attempted to hold him accountable or didn’t give him everything he wanted, even if they knew many of his ideas don’t work or can’t be paid for,  would risk being primaried  by his MAGAs

Nothing will stand in the way of Trump’s MAGAs getting their checks. Inflation be damned



I would never vote for Democrat. But the ideal situation as of now would be Biden to get reelected, but face a Republican Congress. The two worst situations would be Biden with a Democrat Congress, and Trump with a Republican Congress

I will add that another nightmare scenario would be Donald Trump with a Democrat Congress.

Voting NO for Trump a second time (just in case).

Looking in our own little part of the internet, maybe we are in the minority and Trump has more support out there than I give him credit.  I know of several friends who are going to hold their noses and vote for Trump.  I just know I can't do it.
I stand by my convictions. I can only vote for a conservative or conservatism. There is no longer any room for a moderate (at best), narcissistic populist who will appease the left just to score some point for his own ego.  Trump smeared conservatism, more than once.  Game over.

I voted the stoner option. Right now, today, no I won't vote for Trump. However, there is plenty of time for the Dems to become even crazier this year. This could cause a "fear"  vote.

I took a stubborn stance in 2016. I didn't trust Donald Trump because I knew he had rubbed elbows with leftists and leftism. I assumed he'd had a convenient epiphany regarding conservatism just in time to run for president, so I wrote in the candidate I wanted as president.

By the time 2020 rolled around, I was ready to vote for him because he did a far better job than I thought he would. He was CERTAINLY the more pro-America candidate. I couldn't have known just how much damage one president + his evil party could do in less than ONE TERM. Now I'm scared spitless NOT to vote for Trump or for anyone from the right. Now that I see how frighteningly close to losing our republic we are, I'm willing to settle for a less-than-perfect candidate in hopes that it will give us another opportunity to rebuild the republic. Unless someone stops them, the Dems will push things over the edge. If anyone doesn't understand the urgency of the hour, they're not paying attention.

The problem with your thinking is that Tumpy is not 'from the right'

I don't know what you want me to find when I read Hegel. Perhaps you'll spell it out for me. You apparently believe that having Biden (or whatever Dem ends up actually running) is less of a threat than Trump. (BTW, "Tumpy" isn't a cute or clever term, even if you were a 3-year-old girl.  **nononono*)

Also, I don't believe Trump is a true conservative as many of us are. I do believe that he's FAR less dangerous as POTUS than any Democrat. We'll never get a perfect leader. We need to go with the one who'll do the republic the least amount of damage. You needn't mistake me for those full-throated Trumpsters. Instead, I'm someone who will settle for the imperfect when that's the only option we have. That said, I do admire the Energizer Bunny aspect of Trump. I would have ridden off into the sunset, especially given his age and fortune. He could have had a great life and kept the indictments at bay.

Meh. All of Hegel, really, but this summed up in the Hegelian Dialectic _ Controlling both sides of the argument, and therein, the outcome.

It is not by chance that the SWAMP increased under Tumpy... His actions do not match what falls out of his mouth. He us every bit the Washington insider as any of them. Stop paying attention to the big show and look at what they don't want you to see.

Y'all are running headlong with the bit in your teeth, straight into your enemies arms.

There is NO WAY I would believe all y'all would vote for more of the greatest threat to treasure and liberty of all time - By the numbers, on the books, by his record - But you will. Because he's 'not as bad' as Biden.

It is to laugh - The race to the bottom is real. *SMH*

You do realize that if you look at the dim plank, and what Trump proposes with Freedom Cities and Bonus Babies (Potential $15T price tag) that Trump is outspending Pedo Joe?

That is why I am going with None of the Above.
