The app for independent voices

After reading many of the comments, it seems that the real questions is how we define "Never Trump". It could mean that a person does not him/herself vote for Trump. That seems easy to me, as a "Never Trump" person form the beginning. However, is the question whether I personally don't want to vote for Trump (my personal morals, etc.), OR is my goal to make sure Trump NEVER becomes president again? For me, the strategic question is who I have to vote for to keep Trump from winning. Biden is a moderate Democrat, and we understand that he is more palatable to the moderate Republicans and Independents. That is why so many more liberal Democrats have sacrificed their preferences to vote for Biden, and to support him for another 4 years. The goal is to beat Trump, and Biden is a coalition candidate who has the best chance of beating Trump. So the question is, are you a "Never Trumper" personally, or a "Never Trumper" strategically? I guess I am both.

If Trump gets back into office, we will all suffer. He has already destroyed trust, ravaged the rule of law, has incited violence as an answer to disagreements, has glorified bullying and revenge - making them 'norms', has inspired White Christian Supremacy, has provoked hatred of minority groups, and has nearly annihilated the concept of truth. There will be nothing left of the the country we knew that embraced freedom and encouraged civil disagreement. We may never be able to re-build what he has destroyed. The goal is to keep him out of office and I greatly admire those who will vote for Biden to save this country, even when they don't like him or his policies or his Vice President.
