People are responsible for their choices. I just think when you're asking the hypocrisy question, you have to account for the fact that ordinary citizens typically don't - and needn't - have thought-through principles to the same extent.

When you're making arguments about the mortal soul, you'd think people would reflect a bit longer.

Which suggests that the people out there waving their arms in the air about Jesus and Trump are, in fact, full of shit?

I'm talking about the average guy in the pews or bleachers or skyboxes or whatever, talking about how he has to vote for Trump because that's what Jesus would do. That sure smells like top cover for "I'm basically a bad person and like Trump for reasons I know are wrong."

But at some point, isn't there a positive duty to vote against someone like Trump? I don't expect them vote for Warren or Pete, but they positively *affirm* him more than even garden-variety Trumpers? I think there's something terrible at work here in their character.

This is where I’m at. Leaving POTUS blank and voting R and C straight down ballot. Especially living in the suburbs where it looks like we need all the help we can get.

My actual presidential vote doesn't matter in the least. Though I'm curious to see if Trump carries Long Island again (I strongly suspect not).
