Jonah is the enemy.
Jonah is faux American
He is blind, and so is every #never Trumper.
I agree. Jonah is a complete enigma to me. His book “Liberal Fascism” is a great explanation of the nature of our enemy: Fascism/Progressivism. Jonah clearly “gets it”.
And yet Jonah was always reluctant to attack Obama, hates Trump, and is not actively opposed to the pro-Hillary people. He might occasionally talk a good game, but he surrendered to the enemy long ago.
Trump may not be perfect but at least he discerns reality. He is most bitterly opposed by the politically correct delusional Left. They will not or cannot admit that at the core of jihadist terrorism is Islam. The 9/11 terrorists, the barbaric jihadists and over three thousand documented suicide bombers were all motivated by Islam and went to their deaths and murdered believing they would be rewarded with some sort of pleasant afterlife. The Left thinks they can use these lunatics to destroy Western culture and capitalism. The West faces an existential crisis. It is under assault from the bizarre within and alien barbarians. Throughout history the generals and leaders who won the critical battles had flaws and personalities that may have been even repulsive. But in the final analysis they were remembered for their accomplishments. The Left must be defeated for the West to survive. Trump now commands and despite his flaws must have the support of decent people.
“Freedom is never more than one generation away from extinction. We didn’t pass it to our children in the bloodstream. It must be fought for, protected, and handed on for them to do the same.” Ronald Reagan
Trump, whatever one thinks of his true relationship with Conservatism, or his elegance of speech, is the only man to have been running for President who is capable and possibly willing to do what is necessary to bring America back from the abyss. I think there is only a small chance he will do those things that must be done but no one else among those who ran or might have run is either capable or understands.
More and more it is evident to me that those like Jonah Goldberg and Bill Kristol were covert liberals and were never conservatives.
I like Dennis Prager but you’d never know from reading this he’s had 3 or 4 wives. How Trumpian!
These guys just can’t believe a man who talks like a truck driver and kind of looks like one too, is president. It offends their delicate sensibilities even though neither of them is a Rose of Sharon. Personally, I don’t think Jonah looks like he bathes much.
And we are in a Civil War and it is violent as well. Do any of these guys watch Tucker?
Most conservative republicans who oppose Trump are not conservative at all. Naming a few will prove the point, Jeb Bush, McCain, Myth Romney, George Bush, Paul Ryan, Mitch McConnel, Glen Beck, I think it proves the point
Like Krauthammer they came from a liberal tradition and now in middle to old age, all 3 are falling back into it. For some reason, they thought Hillary represented their interests much better than Trump.
These people have been exposed as elite by President Trump.We owe President Trump a debt of gratitude for that and much more.
I remember back in ‘98 that Jonah spoke at our after March For Justice pizza party. I don’t remember what he said but I recall it was a conservative stem winder.
That's certainly part of the problem here, but in a political context that wasn't really the defining difference between Donald Trump and Hillary Clinton in the 2016 election. The real basis of their distinction was one of nationalism vs. globalism.
You didn't see Trump make a big deal about social/cultural issues during the election, probably because he could only win the election with support among large numbers of Americans who have already surrendered most of the cultural war already.
Goldberg is a coward. It is easier to bash Trump politically than support him.
This one is better, although he still kind of excuses them.
At this point, there is no excuse for their obtuse stupidity, and they need to be told that with no prevarication.
Trump surely isn't Reagan, but he's no John Kerry either.
He's pro-RKBA and pro-life - those two alone should enable them to dispense a little grace, but he's also put together an exemplary cabinet.
He still ticks me off from time to time, but he's far, far better than what we could have had.
In the immortal words of Sgt Hulka: "Lighten up, Francis"
Dennis why bother answering a piss ant like Goldberg? He is really of no consequence in the everyday lives of real Americans.
They've become like the useless salt thrown under horses......
