      I agree #NeverTrump at this point isn't going to make a dent in the party trajectory. For me, it's refusing to vote for him. Nothing you say will change that. So if it's no big deal, why is #NeverTrump living rent-free in your brains? Surely you can handle a little dissent?

      If you've dug yourself into the position that Trump & only Trump can win...what comes next, after he's gone? Because I don't see anybody anything like Trump winning statewide elections. You're gonna have a bench full of more conventional Rs again.

      I accept that a post-Trump GOP will have a lot of Trump supporters in it. Oh, we need to purge some noisy extremists & depose some grifters, but the idea of running enthusiastic Trump supporters out of the party is a self-destructive fantasy. But....

      ...the people who want a party that looks & sounds like Trump aren't a majority, & the only way to make them one is keep shrinking the party. Yes, lots of Rs who aren't with the whole MAGA attitude & program will follow him as long as he's leader; they're team players.

      Coalition politics always means learning to play well with other factions in your party, and also accepting that different factions get a turn at the wheel. Too many of the loud MAGA voices haven't accepted that or planned beyond his term.

      Too many NeverTrumpers (like 100% of them) still don’t recognize the horrors in store for this country should we elect another democrat president. There is no reasoning and no common ground with the modern democrat party, they seek 1 party rule and will stop at nothing to get it

      We *will* elect another D president, in 2024 if not 2020. We need a plan beyond "blame each other."

          You are already accepting defeat. I’m not. If we work together to expose the democrat party for what it truly is, we should be able to protect this county until that party changes or disintegrates. Even if that means occasionally voting for candidates we don’t really care for
