    “These Trump haters are sad, pathetic, and irrelevant,” said Trump campaign spokesman Tim Murtagh. “President Trump has united Republicans and has unprecedented support within the party. He’s also attracting non-Republicans and making huge inroads with blacks and Latinos. He will be reelected in November.”

    But in any case, I'm glad to see dissent within the Republican party. Their leaders are in such lock-step that it's a relief to see the constituents aren't fascists or looking to install an authoritarian.

      I agree that it's good to see members of the Republican party who deeply disagree with the way that their party has gone. I don't agree with Republican policy positions by any means, but I have friends and acquaintances who are more towards the "Never Trump" side of the party, and it's at least still possible to have a reasonable discussion with them.
