Inexplicably, the best conservative opinion journal on the web is still quarantined in the "bloggers" forum, while crap like Salon and Slate is posted as news.

Unlike a lot of so-called "Conservative" opinion journals like the National Review and the Weekly Standard, they were *NEVER* part of the anti-Trump coalition.

Even their name evokes Trump and MAGA!

Their writers include both Angelo Codevilla and Victor Davis Hansen, two or the greatest thinkers our side has.

What is the reason for continuing to treat this site like it's someone's blog? I don't get it.

I may be too much of an optimist, but I think the Asians (especially the next generation) will turn it around and become majority Republicans.

In California it may take a lot of power outages and crime experienced up close and personal as their “teaching moments”.

The default position for the Right in America since WW2 has been to lose. We usually lose gracefully, like an over-the-hill boxer who get's a warm-up to the title-fight slot, we know in our bones we're not there to win, but it's still a thrill to be in the contest.

But that's really not good enough when it's the future of our country we are talking about.

The author makes some suggestions for action that can be taken to try to slow or stop the inevitable progression of Red States to Blue. Can we keep Texas Red? Or is the eventual conversion of Texas to Blue - ala California, Oregon and Washington more-or-less a done deal?

iIthout Texas it's hard to color in an Electoral College map that results in a GOP victory. Can we maintain the things we care about, like the First Amendment, Second Amendment and the rest of the Bill or RIghts (not to mention "reality based reality" that includes things like the existence of only two genders) or will we lose gracefully on all that too.

The less possible political solutions become the more likely we end up with kinetic solutions.

CWII PING!

Heed the warnings of POTUS 2 John Adams:

“While our Country remains untainted with the principles and manners, which are now producing desolation in so many parts of the world: while she continues sincere and incapable of insidious and impious policy: we shall have the strongest reason to rejoice in the local destination assigned us by Providence.

But should the people of America, once become capable of that deep simulation towards one another and towards foreign nations, which assumes the language of justice and moderation while it is practicing iniquity and extravagance; and displays in the most captivating manner the charming pictures of candour frankness & sincerity while it is rioting in rapine and insolence: this country will be the most miserable habitation in the world.

Because we have no government armed with power capable of contending with human passions unbridled by morality and religion. Avarice, ambition, revenge or galantry, would break the strongest cords of our Constitution as a whale goes through a Net. Our Constitution was made only for a moral and religious people. It is wholly inadequate to the government of any other”.

The Democrats control the media, public education, higher education, many religious institutions, and most corporations. Statistically, immigrants and their children use welfare at higher rates than natives. Why wouldn’t immigrants assimilate to the America that the Left is creating, rather than traditional America? None of this is a surprise, except to the dogmatic and complicit. Sadly, half the GOP is complicit not to mention the donor class. Even if we took in 0 immigrants a year, we are doomed without also fighting the culture war and retaking our institutions.
