A lot of #NeverTrump folks are not particularly clear about what it is about Trump that pushes them to that view -- not that they won't criticize him, but I'm not seeing a ton of effort to articulate what it is that he stands for that conservatives should reject, and to make that case to conservatives. Often it's just assumed as self-evident, which supplants the hard work of articulating (what should be the) key conservative values. Not saying this about you, btw -- I think you've been much clearer about it than most.
