I give NeverTrump talking heads a lot of grief because of their treatment of President Trump and the Republican base.
But to be fair to them, they had some very legitimate points against Trump.

No, he did not have the temperament to president. He’s quick to anger and mockery. He’s reactionary to any slight or insult. He’s braggadocios, arrogant, and narcissistic.
He has no issue lying or threatening to get his way.

He was a lifelong NY Democrat who didn’t hold conservative values until he started running as a Republican.
Any media story that didn’t reflect upon him well was dismissed as “fake news” and he used people’s anger as a weapon against his opponents.

There were times he trampled norms and customs. There were times he showboated when he should have been humble.
He hated any news cycle that didn’t involve him and would purposefully say or tweet things unnecessarily to stir up more chaos.

He could come across as cruel, cold, and callous. And honestly, he golfed too much.
In many aspects, he was no different than Obama. Obama is arrogant and narcissistic. He’d lie and threaten. He mocked. He went after “fake news”. He openly trampled norms and customs.

And I’m not even gonna mention Biden here because we can all see it with our own eyes.
BUT the things that Trump did very right was speak to the plight of the average American.
No, he wasn’t one of us, but he certainly talked and acted like he understood that energy independence was important, that jobs were important, and that you keeping more of your money was important.
Yes, he called the media fake news, but in his defense, they lied about that dude a LOT.
And very few times did NeverTrump ever stop and say “Wait, let’s see evidence about this.” Nope, unnamed sources were good enough for them.

“This is outrageous! This man is unfit! This is an attack on democracy!” they’d scream. And when it would finally be revealed as a hoax, lie, or whole-cloth fabrication (“suckers and losers”, anyone?), they’d shrug it off with “well, it was believable about him.”
Most things “believable” about Trump were because all the previous lies and mistruths had gone unchecked.
Don’t get me wrong. Trump absolutely would say and do dumb stuff. Trump absolutely would step in it. Multiple times as he was WINNING, dude would tweet something stupid.
But if he was that bad, why you gotta lie about him?
"He won't denounce White Supremacy?"
Uh...he did. 17 times.
How many times did Biden denounced Antifa? Once?

So yeah, NeverTrump was very wrong about him in a lot of ways, and they owe him a lot of apologies.
But they were right about him in a lot of ways too.
But then they were wrong about Biden in the same ways just opposite.

"I know when I vote for Biden, I'm voting for decency."
LOL
Good luck with that.
