Never Trump, Now More than Ever
National Review ^ | July 20, 2016 | David French

Posted on 07/20/2016 1:29:13 PM PDT by C19fan

The demise of the Never Trump movement is greatly exaggerated. There is no doubt that its members failed in one of their aims — denying Donald Trump the GOP nomination — but Never Trump was only partially about this election.

The liberal left is bound and determined to get Hillary into the WH. If she ever does, we can all sit back and experience schadenfreude as the country goes down in flames while the MSM glorifies it.

Yes, but the statement is not positive. The ideas are stale, outmoded and don't address realities on the ground.

French is getting roasted in the “Comments” section. The NT crowd is and always has been deluded about how big their movement is.

At its core, it was really about endless wars in the Middle East, open-borders and demographic warfare against white people.

Turned into a mental illness. Likely not treatable like a sociopathology.

The time for this was the primaries. You ride the horse that’s under you, not the one you wish you had.

“French is getting roasted in the “Comments” section.”

I've been a National Review subscriber for more than thirty years. I think NR the publication is far apart from its readers vis-a-vis Donald Trump. I thought it was fine when NR came out against Trump during the primaries because he was not a conventional conservative and the purpose of NR is to promote conservatism. However, NR’s decision to oppose Trump even after he got the nomination is a despicable betrayal of conservatism, given that the alternative to Trump is Hillary Clinton. At this point, I have no idea what the point of articles such as French's is.
