Why the Nevertrumps Were Wrong

By Joshua D. Allman

I recently came across a column by Dr. John Crosby, titled “Trump: On Counting the Cost,” in which he shared his perspective of the election particularly as a challenge to Catholic supporters of Mr. Trump. Other prominent Catholic writers such as George Weigel and Dr. Robert George raised similar concerns in the past. While Dr. Crosby raised some legitimate observations regarding the now President-Elect, I found his presentation to be incomplete in several areas.

First, Dr. Crosby inadequately represented the position of Catholic Trump supporters as mere hoping for “possible pro-life judicial appointments” due to Mr. Trump’s “half-hearted indications of making” such nominations. But is this an accurate presentation of either Mr. Trump’s commitments, or the broader reasons he was supported by so many conservatives?

Political Unity is Impossible, and That’s Okay

Following Donald Trump’s historic upset on Tuesday, many in the media (yes, THAT discredited mainstream media) are asking how the president-elect will unify the country. Even in his own victory speech early Wednesday morning, Mr. Trump said:

We’re Just Getting Started!

Friends, Catholics 4 Trump is not done! We are just getting started. We’ve created a great network of politically active Catholics and other Christians who value life, religious protections, and our country. We can use this network to be a voice to remind our new President of his campaign promises and to fight for him against the far left and establishment GOP media. These people are already trying to tell him he must cave to their will and start apologizing.

It is CRUCIAL that these people are not allowed to hijack a Trump presidency and we all are crucial to this effort. We all helped to dispel the disabled reporter lie which was crucial in changing many minds about Trump across America and we look forward to an even larger and expanded effort. Tell your friends about us and let’s grow this wonderful movement to help our new President. Thank you for everything you have done to help us and most importantly let’s thank God for this historic win!!

Let’s all redouble our efforts to Make America Great Again!!

What You Tolerate, You Promote

When I was about 16 years old, outside of our favorite coffee shop, my grandfather ruined my life.

Well, no. He did not actually ruin my life. That’s just what I thought at the time. He and I were enjoying an “extra hot” cup of coffee and a conversation about a tough situation I was dealing with at the time, when he told me, “You cannot be afraid to say what needs to be said even if you’re hated for doing it.” He went on to add what changed my life, “no matter what it is in life if you tolerate it, you promote it.” With those words, took the bliss out of my ignorance and he was saving my soul.

They Don’t Hate Trump. They Hate You.
