They fall into five groups. I call them the five B's. There is some overlap between the groups and some of the NEVER TRUMP people fall into more than one of these groups. I challenge anyone to find any who are not included in at least one of the groups.
1. THE BRIBED - These are the people paid by groups whose interest is directly contradictory to interest of the average American. They depend on the globalists to fund their campaigns. Then they go before the voters and pretend to care about them but hide their try intentions. The American people are sick of these people. They don't trust them. The high paid consultants can create some emotional appeal for them but it gets more difficult. They promise all kinds of things and then when it counts go along with whatever leftist policies are proposed.
2. THE BEHOLDEN - There is some overlap with the BRIBED but these are primarily New York and Washington commentators who have no real audience and whose very existence and career depend on a small network of supporters. They don't care about the American people and the American people don't care about them. But their small network of supporters provides them with media access and employment often with large publications and institutions.
3. THE BLACKMAILED - Ever since the Clintons got hold of the FBI files many Washington politicians have been afraid to challenge them or tell the truth. It is said that the Obama administration has also blackmailed many Republicans into unexpected compliance. While these politicians and pundits are afraid to attack liberal Democrats on important issues they see no problems with attacking Republicans.
4 THE BUSHES - Many of the instigators of the stop Trump movement appear to be associated with the Bush family interests. When Bush was still running the idea was to attack Trump but not his supporters. Once Bush left the race it was time to destroy Trump. Candidates were told to go after Trump and personally ridicule him. Candidates were told to gang up against Trump. Lindsey Graham and Mitt Romney attacked Trump continually in public speeches. The Bushes represent open borders, globalism and alliances with liberals. The big dollar PAC’s attacking Trump with negative ads were primarily supported by Bush and Romney donors.
5. THE BLIND - There are some people unfamiliar with the political scene who think the open borders, pro Muslim globalists actually represent their interests. They are confused when they hear people say they are “principled conservatives” and that Trump is a liberal or reality show host or that Trump will ruin America. The Trump is a racist and Trump is a hater theme has been repeated continually. Some people have believed it.
I think all of these groups would prefer a Clinton victory to a Trump victory.
Exactly. Well said.
Hey, I like what you wrote, but edited it to make it more cogent:
The self-annointed “principled conservatives” who oppose Trump are not conservatives at all: they simply represent establishment groups that view the average conservative American as nothing but a sap to be lied to and manipulated.
These establishment pseudo-conservatives fall into five groups. Let’s call them the five B’s:
1. THE BRIBED - These are the people paid by rich special interest groups whose financial interests directly contradict the interests of the average American. THE BRIBED depend upon rich, “cheap labor express” globalists to fund their jobs and their campaigns. These sell-outs go before the voters and pretend to care about them while hiding their true intentions. Americans have finally wised-up and detest these traitorous political figures who they now no longer trust. These highly paid “consultants” and their pseudo-conservative establishment client politicians make emotional appeals to support “true conservatives”, though this sort of propaganda is becoming less useful as more and more rank-and-file members catch on via the many truth-exposing sources available on the Internet.
2. THE BEHOLDEN - There is some overlap with THE BRIBED but THE BEHOLDEN are primarily New York and Washington based enemedia pundits who don’t have a real audience and whose very existence and career depend on a small network of supporters. They don’t care about the American people, and the American people don’t care about them. But their small network of supporters provides them with media access and employment, often with large publications and institutions. Think “Bill Kristol”, “George Will”, “Erick Erickson”, etc.
3. THE BLACKMAILED - Many newly elected Washington GOP politicians have talked a good game during election time, but once elected, for some reason they have quickly drop their “conservative principles” when they vote. Such conversions happen too quickly to be the result of slowy compromising away their souls a tiny piece at a time until nothing is left and therefore can really only be the result of some kind of blackmail. Think Senator Cory Gardner from Colorado.
4 THE BUSHES - Many of the instigators of the NeverTrump movement appear to be associated with Bush family interests. When Jeb Bush was still running, the idea was to attack Trump but not his supporters. Once Jeb bush left the race it was time to totally destroy Trump. Candidates and pundits were told to go after Trump and personally ridicule him and to gang up against him. Lindsey Graham and Mitt Romney attacked Trump continually in public speeches. The Bushes represent open borders, globalism and alliances with liberals. The big dollar PAC’s attacking Trump with negative ads are primarily supported by Bush and Romney big-money interests.
5. THE BLIND - This category includes those naive folks who think the open-borders, pro-Muslim globalists actually represent their interests, that is, assuming they think about the issues at all and are not simply content to think of themselves as “good Republicans”. Without performing independent research, THE BLIND naively accept politicians who proclaim themselves “principled conservatives” and that Trump is a liberal reality show host or that Trump will ruin America or that Trump is a racist or a a hater, all of which are themes continually repeated by the enemedia 24x7x365. Think country club Republicans who attend fund-raisers dressed in their finery and who are simply content in thinking they are rubbing elbows when they meet beggar politicians.
I think all of these groups would prefer a Clinton victory to a Trump victory.
