Demographics
Research on the Never Trump movement shows that Mormon and female Republicans were the most likely groups to oppose Trump's candidacy while non-Mormon and male Republicans were the most supportive.[254] In the same study, establishment Republicans were found to be more likely to support Trump's candidacy, the opposite of what most observers, including Donald Trump himself, claimed.[255]

2016: The alleged repunks who vowed 'Never Trump' Empty Re: 2016: The alleged repunks who vowed 'Never Trump'

Let's examine this.
Lifelong politicians and government officials refusing to endorse a non-politician as the chosen representative of the people.

All government and All government agencies need to be greatly reduced in number and size.

ALL politicians should be term limited.
I'll go so far as to say no politician should be able to work on K-Street( lobby) and have influence in the legislative branch of government after they have exited their positions.

Got confused.  From post #1:
Tim Pawlenty,[a] Minnesota (2003–2011) (voted for Trump)[55][56]
Huh?  So what's this list about?


And...
Demographics
Research on the Never Trump movement shows that Mormon and female Republicans were the most likely groups to oppose Trump's candidacy while non-Mormon and male Republicans were the most supportive.[254] In the same study, establishment Republicans were found to be more likely to support Trump's candidacy, the opposite of what most observers, including Donald Trump himself, claimed.[255]
Huh?  Is the point here to disprove their "Never Trumper" point?
