What Republican Turncoats Forget- Anika Blitzstein

After browsing through the obviously biased “Real Clear Politics” website, trying to find an article that peaked my interest, I stumbled upon one written by Stephen Moore titled What Republican Turncoats Forget. Moore began the article with a snippet into two of conversations he had with successful republicans.  Moore asks both people who they would vote for in the election.  One says that he would not vote for either Hillary or Trump, the other replied that there is no one else to vote for but Trump.  To the ladder, Moore seemed to agree with.  Moore then goes on to complain about how republicans are voting for Hillary.  While he understands when republicans choose not to vote for either of the candidates, he can not comprehend why they would support the democratic one.  This author is very obviously biased and his article makes no sense.  He bashes what he likes to call “Republican Turncoats”-Republicans who decide to vote for Hillary.  He thinks that letting Democrats win for a third term would provide a devastating blow to the Republican party.  This article just exemplifies the bigotry of the far right side.  They are so obsessed with a Republican being in the house that they don’t even care who it is.  Ideally, voters should vote for the person that they want in the white house, regardless of what party the person belongs to.  Society is so obsessed with winning that they are missing the big picture.  People need to let go of their fragile ego and really think about who they want running their country.  This election is not a joke, as people are making it one, voting for Trump “just cause” is selfish and an excellent demonstration of privilege.  According to the theory of political thinking, it is good to vote for the candidate that has the same beliefs as you.  Voting for Trump just because he is the republican candidate regardless of whether he has the same views as you is going against this theory. Why do you think some Republicans feel threatened that other Republicans aren't voting for Trump?
