    Ill be damned. I said before trump has alienated me through his personal attacks on every republican he ran across to whom he, I thought, would ask and need the support of.

    I hated that he split the party and turned it into a civil war by which not only would he lose the election to the most despicable candidate the dems could have ever put out there but even if by some miracle he got in, he wouldn't be able to accomplish much because both sides of the aisle would hate him...

    The jury is still out on how he'll work with Congress and I still hate how he handled the primaries and some of the things he says but I pretty much wrote him off and condemned my fellow republicans who voted for him as being political suicide and I was wrong about that so ill feast on crow tonight. You guys stuck to your guns, went with your heart, shrugged off the naysayers like me, it's paying off big-time and I can respect that.

    Kudos.

    As a #NeverTrumper, I will eat my crow here beside you. I thought he was going to lose big, but it seems instead that both sides discouraged the electorate so much that he ended up winning (Trump got less votes than Romney did, (but Hillary also got less votes than Romney). I will say, I'm very happy that Hillary isn't President and that we have a Republican Congress.
