Rep. Chris Stewart (UT), while not explicitly committing to #NeverTrump, nonetheless compared Trump to Mussolini earlier this week, so I'm guessing he's not a fan:

I find it quite amusing that someone who compares Trump to Mussolini thinks not voting for him in the general may be a bridge too far.

Partisanship is a hell of a drug.

I have a little more respect for Romney now.  I have no respect for the Republicans who will back Trump if he wins the nomination.  If Trump's THAT BAD a HUMAN BEING; if it's not just issue differences, then why would you support him at all if his character is that low?  Think about that.  The GOP (for the most part, is saying, "He's a scumbag, but if he's nominated, he's OUR scumbag."  If Trump's THAT bad, it's time for these folks to fish or cut bait.

Honestly though, I would respect him more if he voted for Clinton. Voting third party accomplishes nothing.

He now lives in highly non-competitive Utah, so voting for anyone accomplishes nothing.

Uh, I'll have you know that Utah is more likely to vote Democratic than Colorado.

Some more #NeverTrump endorsements from weeks/months past that we missed:

Former Rep. Ron Paul (TX):

Former PA Gov. and Sec. of Homeland Security Tom Ridge:

Rep. Richard Hanna (NY):

Former Rep. Bob Inglis (SC):

(if I’m interpreting that right)

Former Rep. J.C. Watts (OK):

http://fortune.com/2016/03/01/republicans-oppose-trump/


I think this post so perfectly encapsulates the following joke:

"What do you call a sane Republican politician? Former"

Even Hanna is retiring!

Should we make a drinking game out of this? I don't want anyone to die of alcohol poisoning though.

Ayotte sure sounds like a low energy loser there.

Hopefully Hassan takes her to the woodshed over this.

As noted in the VP thread, while Rubio hasn't said this publicly yet, someone in his political orbit says that he's planning to skip the convention as well:

https://uselectionatlas.org/FORUM/index.php?topic=234526.msg5058348#msg5058348

Of the 17 candidates this year, will even half of them end up showing up at the convention?

Gilmore said he's going. So there's that.

Santorum says he hasn’t yet decided who he’s going to vote for, and it sounds like he’s not going to decide for some time:

A month and a half ago, Joe Scarborough was mocking #NeverTrump, saying it was just 12 people on Twitter, and that Republicans would come to realize that they had to choose between Clinton and Trump:

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cW10wpyeMtw

Now he's urging Republican politicians to stand up to Trump, and draw lines in the sand like "I won't endorse you until you do X, Y, and Z":

http://www.politico.com/story/2016/06/joe-scarborough-gop-trump-224355

Isn't it amazing what refusing to go on Morning Joe can accomplish? lol

They also hated Hillary with the burning passion of a thousand suns for months...until she appeared on their show, now they cool.

Dent's probably gonna vote for Clinton in the privacy of the booth. The guy said that there should be a bipartisan commission to select a speaker after Boehner left.

Yeah, Dent is one of the few House Republicans I like. His actions during the government shutdown and speaker coup were admirable, particularly since he was basically standing alone as all the fake moderate heroes deserted him for political points.

He's lost it. How in the world can you even justify this? At least have the decency to write in Cruz.

This RINO deserves to be hunted.
