National Review turns the tables on Trump

[busybee01]

It isn’t exactly breaking news that the national review is no longer very much concerned with conservatism.

Leave it to petty little “g.5” to pretend to place value in anything espoused by even a run of the mill Republican “go along to get along” Party sheet.

Neither are you. Right wing fascism is not conservatism.

Who's the party who refers to their representatives as leaders?

National Review. Established by William F. Buckley, who is the founder of the conservative movement.

You ignoramus.

You're welcome.

HAHAHA…”movement”? WTF
Is that the movement that conceded America to you filthy Leftists?
The one that never conserved or preserved anything?
But but but…..FISCAL RESPONSIBILITY!

Donald Trump is not the problem. The reason that everyone wants to dump on Trump is because they want to take over this country. Ron DeSantis is no different than Trump. DeSantis attacks free speech rights, voting rights, is a racist, attacks gays and transgenders and women's rights. DeSantis and others are just smoother than Trump and a bigger menace.

You have any examples of DeSantis doing what you claim?

Who are the RINOs you are referring to?

Chris Christie, start there.

I used to object to Republicans who caved to the Democrats at every turn, and only ran as Republicans by pretending that this time they would not, being called RINOs. Because by the midterm of Obama's second term, that was the majority of Republicans, so they were the Republican Party.

But it turns out that the Party belongs to its voters, not to its "establishment." Republican voters selected Trump. No doubt the establishment Republicans are angry that voters who had stayed home for two or three elections decided to start voting again, now that they had a person willing to stand up for them against the Democrats in the race.

Remember how poorly the establishment types who tried to oppose Trump in the primary did? I can't remember: did any of them ever go above single digits?

So now the RINO's are the never-Trumpers, like Cheney, and the compromisers willing to once again go along and give lip service to the Dems. None of them have even tried to oppose Trump this election year, and I don't know of any of them floating the idea of primary-ing him.

Republican voters didn't select Trump. Trump only received 44% of Republican primary votes in total. Early in the primaries, he was winning all of the delegates with 15% of the vote. 85% of voters wanted someone else. but with 17 Candidates in the clown car, Trump came out on top.

Donald Trump has never been selected by majority of the voters in any election he's run in. Not the 2016 Primaries, the 2016 General, or the 2020 election. Donald Trump hijacked the Republican Party because it has a dearth of strong leadership, and the voters are fed up with the "do nothing" party.

Try googling legislation passed in Florida over the past two years - that should pretty much cover it.

Bill Clinton didn’t win a majority over the voters in 1992 or 1996. You really have no clue how our system works, so why don’t you sit down, STFU, and try to fix your own shithole country.

I did. Nothing in there backed up his lies.

Next?

The Buckley Rule: Vote for the Conservative that has the best chance of winning.

National Review opposed Trump in 2016 because he was not perceived as an authentic Conservative. After they saw how he executed the office of the Presidency, most of their columnists came around and supported him. He was much better than expected, especially on immigration, taxes, and judicial appointments.

Republicans WON THE MEANINGLESS POPULAR VOTE for Congress in '22...51-47. Oddly, Democrats don't seem too impressed with the popular vote this time around. I wonder why not.

Recent polling indicates that Trump no longer has a strangle-hold on the party. Not surprisingly, National Review, seeing that there are others who are just as Conservative as Trump and less unpopular, have rejected him for the second time.

Two years is an eternity in politics. I don't think any Republican can win without an enthusiastic endorsement from DJT.

You’re a stupid little fuckstick.

I’m not a fascist. I leave that shit to you asshole libtards.

And asswipes like you shouldn’t even use the word “conservative” or “conservatism.” You have absolutely no clue what it is or what it’s all about.

 

[Anathema]

You pretend to make a reasonable post and it comes out stupid.

That’s exactly correct. Trump is a continuous circus act. We want the policies without the constant pie in the face. Unfortunately DeSantis is not the answer either because he’s simply talking the talk. I don’t believe he can, or even really want to walk the walk.

More and more are opening their eyes to the poison that is Donald Trump.

The email utilized those words to set up a financial kill shot, in Trump fashion:

“He wonders who’s funding us, and that’s an easy one — people like you who believe in our cause and who are willing to help out. There’s a reason that Mar-a-Lago wants us to die, and if you envision and hope for a better American future, you should help us live,”

The email dropped any pretense of journalistic nonpartisanship in its fundraising appeal.

“We want a Republican Party that can win majorities and that doesn’t limit itself to trying to eke through with 46 percent in presidential elections,” the email stated. “We want a conservatism that is unapologetic and serious-minded and not distorted by one man’s ego or abased by ridiculous conspiracy theories.”

You want Mitt Romney to lose with 46% of the electorate.

 

[shockedcanadian]

Bush is the reason I stopped voting on the federal level for many years.

BINGO!

Trump is the consummate huckster. He saw an opening in the Republican Party after it had been hijacked by psychos, liars, hypocrites, bigots, and retards.

That's why he changed his registration from Democrat to Republican. He knew where the suckers are. He could smell 'em a mile away.

Well, many of these people are the same voters who also supported Obama. The difference is that Trump kept his word and tried to address some of their ills, Obama largely did not.

There are plenty of policies and stances that Trump takes that I disagree with. On the big issues, however, really the most blatant issues' his common sense approach to problems is more correlated with the average voter than Establishment politicians are.
