National Review Writer: Working-Class Communities ‘Deserve To Die’
Daily Caller ^ | 03/12/2016 | Scott Greer

Posted on 03/12/2016 10:12:25 AM PST by 20yearsofinternet

National Review’s Kevin Williamson believes Donald Trump’s appeals to the white working class is “immoral” because that demographic’s way of life deserves to die out.

In a featured article for the prestigious conservative journal entitled “The Father-Fuhrer,” Williamson seeks to rebut criticism that he and other conservatives don’t articulate any policies that would appeal to Trump’s blue collar supporters.

Williamson, a long-time critic of The Donald, essentially agrees that he doesn’t support any policies or rhetoric directly tailored to the working-class — particularly about jobs being taken by outsourcing and immigration — because it would be wrong to do so.

“It is immoral because it perpetuates a lie: that the white working class that finds itself attracted to Trump has been victimized by outside forces,” the NR roving correspondent writes. “[N]obody did this to them. They failed themselves.”

He then goes on to state that all the ills associated with downscale whites are a result of that class’s inherent depravity.

We are not fighting the uniparty and the Establishment. those words are too nice, What we really have in the USA is an Aristocracy. Unfortunately we don’t have any guillotines yet.

I hope Thomas Sowell wakes up and spills it — why in the heck did he stay on board with these creeps? If he was pressured financially, he could be a heroic whistle blower. Not too late.

South Africa is not the best example. They were oppressive. In fact, the lefists look to places like South Africa to slander white Americans.

This used to be the most tolerant nation on earth toward all races, and assimilation was highly successful. Then after 9-11-01, Europe took the mantle. How’s that working out for them?

Visualize the uproar if somebody said the same thing about the black underclass.

Many of us knew that hte GOP-E was full of bull for a long time. I remember when a bunch of newbies who supported GW entered the forum full of optimism.

When he failed to investigate the Clintons, they said ...

“He’s playing it close to the vest.”

First time I heard that phrase. Handy, but what an ugly way to learn.

To me, ‘Aristocracy’ is ‘Downton Abbey’. That word has been polished recently. I’m glad. Trump is what I view as a benevolent Aristocrat.

But please don’t let my fellow Super Villains for Trump know that I watched any Downton Abbey episodes.

FYI, Art in Idaho reminded me that I posted about a month ago some predictions of delegate numbers.

I said going into tomorrow, Trump would have about 455.

According to Five Thirty Eight, he has 463.

The contractor was a normal American I didn’t know until the contract was signed and his crew showed up.

I really hate the term "Cheap Labor Express" because it shows only a very small part of the picture.

Cheap labor is a side benefit.

The real goal is white replacement and genocide.

It's far more evil.

hird World and along with the Chinese are in the process of invading the United States. Just go look, you have eyes to see.

That is what I keep wondering. Does anyone go out and look around anymore? I live in a decent area and when I go out and observe, it's staggering. I AM a stranger in a strange land.

I made a note of that. Glad to find someone who knows a thing or two about delegates and willing to discuss them!

Why hasn't the national security aspect of factories leaving the country been on anybody's radar? When all the factories are gone, the pool of skilled labor to run those factories dries up. A lack of factories and skilled labor cannot possibly be beneficial to our security and strength.

Government regulations/taxes, and unreasonable labor union demands, both need to be prevented from driving American companies out.
