Albion, you encouraged me to post something along these lines and asked me to ping you when I did. Here it is.
Defeating the Uniparty is Job#1.
Cruz can do that best with fundamental conservatism.
Trump can do that second best with wild populism.
I support Cruz.
I can vote for Trump.
DEATH TO THE UNIPARTY!
What a load of hooey.
Today we learn from Jim Robinson of a movement afoot
Truth.
National Review have sided with government program open border advocates. They’re part of the establishment, which is why they’re so against Trump.
They’re not pro Cruz, but pro Rubio
I can’t betray something I’ve pledged no loyalty to. I’ll believe what I think is true, regardless what it’s called.
Too long time I didn’t read.
I support Cruz. I will support Trump in the general if he is nominated.
Some Trump supporters are insane. Not all, just some.
Nice work, AJ.
Excellent piece and post! I’ll be sharing this with my non-Freeper friends! :)
You chose Variety and Change to highlight Conservative Principals?
Interesting choices.
A vote for Donald Trump is a vote against Hay-soos.
“The fundamental problem, of course, is that conservatism is built on the political foundation of the Republican Party, and, with that party’s devolution into crony capitalism, what conservatives attempt to defend is built on a “dismal” plague infested miasma. Defend the ramparts of your castle all you want. You are defending ground no one wants to occupy and the political battles will be fought elsewhere. If conservatives want to be relevant. they need to move to solid ground.”
In an article with a number of strange claims this is the strangest. The Conservative movement has been at war with the Republican party for as long as I can remember. This author seems to be saying that Conservatism = GOP, and since the GOP is the party of Crony Capitalism, then those who advocate for Conservative principles are advocating for Crony Capitalism. What a crock.
While I find Trump preferable to Hillary or Sanders, those who want to pretend that Trump’s devotion to liberal causes and politicians, and his admitted use of donations to buy business favors (Crony Capitalism anyone” should be ignored may have to listen to the tale of the Frog and the Scorpion a couple of years into a Trump presidency. I hope I’m wrong and Trump has had a fundamental change of heart politically, but I guess all we can do is hope at this point.
Conservatism is supposed to be a political philosophy, not a religion with a totalitarian theocratic enforcement arm.
I for one will not adhere to any such perversion that believes in some unelected council of priests being able to force compliance to their egotistical pronouncements under threat of “excommunication”.
That is certainly not conservatism.
well written AJ...good logic, strong points.
Glenn Beck says if Trump is elected, we’ll go straight to hell in a hand basket. But first, this message from goldline...
The ironic thing is that when Trump is elected it will not be on the basis of conservative support, and he will not be beholden to conservatives for his win. So conservatives are essentially devouring one another and destroying their movement for nothing.
Very good analysis.
