The Ever-Trump nitwittery on FR is a large part of why FR has diminished dramatically in importance for me; I prefer right-minded critical thinkers myself. Yes Deace was an outspoken critic of Trump during the election but now just calls balls and strikes praising Trump sometimes effusively when he does something beneficial policy-wise. And he criticizes Trump when that is needed. But for the “Trump is Divine” idolaters that is not enough, nothing short of outright worship will suffice as Trump can apparently do no wrong in their eyes. Always “Ever Trump” and always “Never Trump” are just two opposing camps of silly people. Trump does some good things, Trump does some ridiculous things. Because he is human.
Agreed. President Trump has done a LOT of great things. And he’s also human, sometimes makes mistakes, like all of us.
Hey, Crusher, how about starting a movement that falls somewhere between Ever Trump and Never Trump? You could call it Third Way and advertise it as the movement for Closet Losers. Because we Ever Trumpers are WINNERS. And Deace is an Out-of-the Closet .... wait for it .... LOSER.
Loser.
People seem to think that you have to be either Ever Trump or Never Trump. Both of those were wrong-headed. It’s not about Trump. It’s not about any individual. It’s about principles. To the extent that President Trump advances our principles, he has he full support of conservatives. To the extent that he doesn’t,we ought to be critical.
