        Matt, where do you see Kasich? He is a Never Trumper and still holds conservative values. Could he be the leader the NTs need?

        I’m going back to the party. I will support President Trump in 2020. In my view, the Dems showed they have no moral high ground during the Kavanaugh hearings. Made me take another look. On balance, Trump has delivered on policy, even though I’m not a populist or nationalist.

        Same. Voted neither in ‘16. Have spent his tenure trying to call balls & strikes. There have been more of the latter than I expected. But the mainstream Left calling for upending due process, the EC & the Senate? It is CLEAR which party will damage our norms & institutions.

        Exactly, we have a clear line now. I would rather support Trump than Harris, Booker, Leahy, Feinstein, Whitehouse and Coons. We have a presumption of innocence in this country and evidence matters.

        And over the weekend I became a “problematic white woman” who does the bidding of The Patriarchy or something. I may have a lot of things I regret in my life. But who I am & my values isn’t one of them.

        Exactly. The Dems over played their hand with Kavanaugh and Rs close ranks. So what do they do? Double down and start attacking white men, white women and the American family structure. Seems counterproductive.

        Disagree. My thinking on this tends more toward @RadioFreeTom’s point of view. Both parties have ceded any sort of moral authority. I, for one, am turned off by the GOP’s Machiavellian methods. I still consider myself a Republican, but I can’t justify a vote for Trump.

        Will you vote for republicans in 2018? Do you support Kavanaugh? Or do you think Trump being bad poisons the whole well!

        Thanks for the response! No, I don’t think he has poisoned the whole well, though I think he’s gotten many to ignore their conservatism. I will vote GOP in 2018, but MA Republicans tend to be more pragmatic than National Rs. I’m pleased w Justice K, & thought Dems were despicable

        I think he keeps winning because we all keep accepting his premise that it’s him or crazy social justice people who want to destroy us. First, I don’t see a difference between the two. Second, most people don’t want either but keep being forced to choose. We need a third choice

        That is his great gift. Taking the actions of a couple hundred idiots and making people think that those idiots are representative of the entire left. That’s demagoguery 101.

        Unfortunately the left seems to be taking notes and following his lead. All of us in the rest of the country are left trying to pick from increasingly bad choices
