Blacklisted: Drudge, Coulter, Hannity, Carson, Breitbart, O’Reilly, Christie Make GOP Smart Set’s List of ‘Ideological Hustlers’

Conservative movement professionals in Washington, D.C. are plotting to form a “blacklist” of Donald Trump supporters that they can kick out of the movement, never to return.

Several conservative talking heads and Beltway consultant types have been very angry about the rise of businessman Trump, who is pushing for American sovereignty, a reversal of neoconservative foreign policy, and competitive bidding for pharmaceuticals even though the drug companies that fund the Republican Party would take a financial hit.

So far, anti-Trump think pieces referencing William F. Buckley have been ineffective. Memes comparing Trump to Hitler haven’t worked. So these Republicans are getting more Nixon-y. They’re coming out with an Enemies List.

CNN contributor and former Sen. Ted Cruz (R-TX) spokeswoman Amanda Carpenter volunteered to take the lead in writing the list.

Has anyone compiled the definitive list of conservatives who should be blackballed for supporting Trump? I will if it doesn't exist.

— Amanda Carpenter (@amandacarpenter) March 16, 2016

But Carpenter, who once got called an “idiot” by Donald Trump, did not mention that she formerly defended Trump on numerous occasions. Luckily, savvy Twitter users pointed it out for her in the responses below her tweet.

Carpenter later explained the terms for inclusion on her “blacklist.”

My blacklist is limited to people who have formally endorsed Trump. Not those who simply explain the phenomenon. https://t.co/KrbutWYesO

Carpenter is not alone in calling for a blacklist. Red State contributing editor Ben Howe said that he has the resources to get a high-tech “blacklist” off the ground, as well as seed money from God knows who in the donor class.

Cruz supporters are the biggest babies I’ve seen in politics ever. No wonder voters reject Cruz.

I’m proud to be blacklisted by them.

Its rich to watch charlatans and hustlers accuse others of ideological heresy.

Now for the inquisition and burnings at the stake. How contemptible of conservative impostors.

Any money-collecting organization with the words “conservative” or “TEA party” in its name, ain’t conservative or TEA party.

What ever happened to the fabled "marketplace of ideas"? Everybody wants to shut down opponents. If you cannot adequately respond, they maybe your ideas aren't so great to begin with.

Ideological purity should be an ideal, excluding those you may need down the road because of slight disagreements that you may have from time to time is idiotic.

The fools in the establishment just keep using bigger shovels. It’s really something to behold. I guess when you are on the verge of losing your gravy train you tend to get desperate.

The shorter list is the “good” side. Basically anyone who depends on NR for a check.

The best way that voters can "blacklist" Trump & Co. is to NOT Vote for him...including the general election if he gets that far...

I will not bring myself to support somebody who promotes the GLBT movement...
...who doesn't explain his pro-abortion stances of years past...
...who refuses to speak negatively of Planned Parenthood...
...who is the living embodiment of the gambling & hotel porn industry...
...etc etc etc..

Let others waste their ethics away on endorsing the above said lifestyles and life-taking practices!

His run will be studied for years to come. His approach is mostly common sense, but idiots Amanda Carpenter don't get that.
