Damn right, I'll help them by denying Trump my vote. There are vast numbers of other Texans and other Americans who are the same way. And it's you Trumpsters fault for choosing an unfit President. I started my NeverTrump thread in February 2016 which documents how long I've been NeverTrump and was NeverTrump even back in 2015. The coming destruction of the GOP is on you people.
