“But there are plenty of conservatives and Republicans who believe the election already is lost, and therefore aren't willing to sacrifice their dignity and principles to vote for Trump. For these conscientious conservatives, withholding their vote from Trump won't help Clinton win, it merely may aid her in covering the point spread. For people like me, a vote against Trump is a vote for sanity.”
Exactly.
“More important, it's not the #NeverTrumpers who got us to the precipice of this Lost Election. It's the suckers who believed that Trump was going to undergo a presidential metamorphosis after nearly 70 years of racism, boorishness and misogyny. Donald Trump clearly believes he got where he is because of these traits, not in spite of them.”
Indeed, that’s why most Trump supporters support him, because they share his bigotry, racism, boorishness, and misogyny.
And if Trump were to undergo a presidential metamorphosis, most of those same supporters would likely abandon him.
