Michael Walsh attacks never-trumpers here:

He argues us never trumpers are electing hillary.
My response:
Michael Walsh, you are an idiot.
I am a registered Democrat in ny who won't vote for any liberal, congenital liar. Neither donald or hillary.
So, please tell me how i help elect either trump or hillary as a dem voting for the libertarians in ny?
Hillary is up 30% in ny. And because we have a federal election decided by an electoral college, my voting trump - who is, right now, guaranteed to lose ny - would actually be throwing away my vote; whereas by voting libertarian i actuall send a message to both parties.
And if in some alternate universe, trump was only behind in ny by 1 or 2 or 3% - and couldd actually maybe win ny with the never-trumper vote, then he would be demolishing hillary almost everywhere else, and he still would not need my vote.
Jerks like michael walsh should stfu. Really. Stfu.

Please, dear sir - you are correct of course in one sense.
But if Hillary should win, how could you live with yourself
as being one of the people voting against her and didn't.

In your particular situation it indeed may not matter that you "throw away your vote". But in many other places that is not true. By setting an example you send a very bad signal. I too am very displeased with Trump. But HRC is a total disaster and a mega crook. I will do everything and anything in my power to prevent her winning. Even holding my nose and voting for Trump. To me that seems the responsible thing to do.
Michael Walsh is a asshole and a loser. Seriously. I can't stand that dude, and I've even bought his books. Little did I know, heh.
