Republican said he will hold nose and vote for Trump rather than let Sanders or Clinton win.

Cal Thomas Reluctantly Backs Trump Despite His Many Faults


Cal Thomas, one of the authors of the National Review's edition entitled 'Against Trump,' sparred with Alan Colmes on this week's Versus segment, where he pits his liberal perspective head to head with a bona fide 'conservative.' However, we are learning that the definition of conservative is rather fluid these days.


He said he will vote for Donald Trump if he is the Republican nominee. Trump would be the lesser of two evils. Trump would be better than either Bernie Sanders or Hillary Clinton. When asked why he would then vote at all he replied and give ground to the liberals? (I paraphrase)

listen to the video here:

he would vote for a Democrat.

But as he repeated, he'll hold his nose and vote for whomever the GOP puts forth as their candidate. That's because they hate Hillary so very deeply. They treat Bernie Sanders as if he's nuts. Yet those two candidates make every one of their clown car occupants look like the criminally insane misanthropes they truly are.
