The Hill

Conservative columnist Erick Erickson, who declared himself “Never Trump” during the 2016 election, endorsed President Trump for reelection in 2020 on Monday.

In a column on his site, The Resurgent, Erickson writes that some of his concerns about Trump remain, but that the president and Vice President Mike Pence have “earned (his) vote.”

“I still struggle on the character issue and I understand Christian friends who would rather sit it out than get involved,” Erickson writes. “But I also recognize that we cannot have the Trump Administration policies without President Trump and there is much to like.”

The columnist says he voted third-party in 2016, but that “the path of opting out or protesting now … seems irrelevant.”

1. He must be rich. They are the only people who have benefited from Trump.

He's probably getting a tax refund.

2. He's probably hoping for a FOX gig

I still remember when he called Gold Star mother Cindy Sheehan “a publicity whore” for opposing the Iraq War, and was relentless in attacking her. He is disgusting.

3. No surpise at all.

Won't even bother with "obligatory Clause Rains".

Remember, NONE of these "Never Trumpers" is a friend. Some of them may be entertaining and witty with the scorn they heap on Trump, but they spent their careers heaping that scorn on Democrats, and they'll go right back to it the moment they feel safe.

5. They may not like Trump but they hate us more and they hate anyone who might help

people survive.

6. The never Trumpers have lost a lot of power and money over the last 2 years.

Most of them will crawl back as most republicans don't have any principles.
