“I cannot spare this man. He fights.” — Abraham Lincoln on Ulysses S. Grant

This has been one of my driving attitudes on Trump.

He wasn't originally my first choice in 2016, but he was a man who I looked and was able to say "I will have no problem voting for him if he's the nominee", which was far more than I could about most the Republican candidates.

Fortunately, I've come to feel a lot better about in him the four years since the first time around.

Regardless, whatever disagreements I might have regarding Trump here and there, I can not look past the fact that he fights. He actually has a backbone. He actually knows how to win. He actually wants to win.

And for that, I can not turn my back on him. Certainly not for any reason short of the unthinkable.

Yeah at the start I was for Cruz #1 and Trump #2 and fuck the rest but obviously glad now that it was Trump.
