And now, there is one. Donald Trump has secured the GOP nomination for President of the United States in 2016.

The cry-babies are out in force. Unable to accept the will of the people, they whine and complain. They state that they will write in Ted Cruz, or Bozo, or someone else. Paul Ryan, the Speaker of the House. has decided as of this writing to withhold his endorsement of Mr. Trump. So have both presidents Bush.

Bill Kristol of The Weekly Standard is looking for someone to run as an independent. What asininity! Every vote for that independent is a vote for the Democrat.

Mr. Trump won. Fair and square. He did not cheat. He did not rig the vote. He did nothing except to put his name forward and campaign. The people reacted by choosing him. Some in the GOP power structure have accepted the will of the people; Reince Preibus (who hails from Speaker Ryan’s Wisconsin), the GOP chairman, has thrown the full resources of the party behind Mr. Trump. He is to be lauded for honoring the people.

Others who refuse to see past their own visions of hyper-purity of the GOP are quite angry that Senator Cruz was defeated and bowed out. On Facebook, I have seen more than one person in outright denial, saying that there is still hope that the Senator can be the nominee. What nonsense! Even Senator Cruz knows better, and suspended his campaign on the ground that he saw no path to the nomination!

Let me be clear: Whoever fails to vote for Mr. Trump in November has voted for the Democrat, no matter what name he or she enters on the ballot, even if he or she casts no vote! Furthermore, anyone who fails to vote for Mr. Trump in November endorses the abomination that the Democrat (be it Mrs. Clinton or Senator Sanders) would appoint to the Supreme Court to succeed Justice Scalia. That person, by his or her vote, endorses extreme pre-birth murder (don’t sanitize it with the word “abortion”) and anti-Christian decisions and legislation, and endorses wholesale persecution of those who fail to wholeheartedly endorse the most extreme leftist positions.

If Mrs. Clinton remains unindicted for her crimes regarding her email server, and is the nominee, the reality of failing to vote for Mr. Trump becomes even more stark. In that event, a failure to vote for Mr. Trump is a vote to put a criminal in the White house.

Dietrich Bonhoeffer famously said, “ Silence in the face of evil is itself evil: God will not hold us guiltless. Not to speak is to speak. Not to act is to act.” In this case, the only non-evil act is to vote for Donald Trump in November, and for every down-ballot republican all the way down to dog-catcher.

Conservativity takes the position that no person who fails to vote for Mr. Trump in November deserves to be a citizen of the United States of America. It is the civic duty of every citizen to vote the entire GOP ballot; a failure to do so is an expression of complete hatred for all which this country stands, and furthermore an expression of hatred of both freedom and goodness, and finally an expressed desire to implement tyranny and to destroy all semblance of American liberty.

Those words may sound extreme, but they are likely an understatement. The United States of America is in an existential struggle. The forces that hate freedom are attempting to complete a total takeover of the country, and we are the last line of defense.

This country is being overrun with illegal aliens. Mr. Trump has the only solution that will work. This country’s workforce has been waylaid by those illegal aliens and preposterous trade deals that have effectively destroyed the American middle class. Mr. Trump has the only solution that will work. This country has lost the respect of the rest of the world. Mr. Trump has the only solution that will work.

This country has been persecuted by the forces of political correctness. People who believe that all disagreement with their views must be forcibly silenced and punished at the law are running rampant over this country’s freedom. Mr. Trump is the last best chance that we have to put a stop to the nonsense.

Mr. Trump has promised to replace Justice Scalia with someone like Justice Scalia. Mr. Trump has promised to stop the influx of greedy illegal immigrants who start their lives in this country with no respect for our laws, except to the extent that they can use said laws to their own advantage. He has promised to punish those who take jobs out of the USA, and to punish people who take unfair advantage of trading with this country.

The people have spoken. Now there is one. Any American who is actually an American will vote for Donald Trump. Anyone who fails to do so is a traitor.
