"...I have also resisted the siren call of “Trump does it, so it makes it OK.” As I have written in these pages, Trump’s name-calling has made me check my own ­impulse to let insults fly..."

There is no "Trump does it so it makes it okay" for the vast majority of conservatives.

We are all on board with the "Name calling", but before Trump became President, there was no one who would do it. Every single non-Democrat politician was simply a punching back for the Left and just took the abuse for decades.

We are mostly overjoyed that Trump is giving back to them, accurately, what they dished out to us (and continue to, unabated) for decades.

That we are brainless, convictionless automatons who couldn't think for ourselves and curse the Left until we somehow gained courage and jumped on the train because Trump did it is an absurd assessment.

“There is no “Trump does it so it makes it okay” for the vast majority of conservatives.”

It’s very clear that this person is STILL in their liberal bubble.

But believes otherwise.

Complete ignorance, and not only a complete unawareness of it, but still the arrogance.

Well said, rlmorel. Trump is saving the conservative movement by actually standing up for its principles — and fighting back!
