Someone should tell Ben Shapiro that all those putative conservative voters that have been dutifully voting for the ccuckservative cryptoDemocrats like Mitt “dogMitt” Romney and Juan McCain aren’t necessarily going to vote Republican after Trump revealed who you cucks REALLY are: Uniparty phonies who are Democrats wearing red jerseys.

All the anti-Trump republicans have NEVER been nor will they ever be conservative.

I am at a loss for words to describe the logic these people use to proclaim they are conservatives and Trump supporters are traitors.


Madness.

After Donald J. Trump finishes doing all the things he has promised: build the wall, deport illegals and Syrian invaders, cancel Obama’s unconstitutional executive orders, roll back twenty years of intrusive government regulations, prosecute Hillary and her crew, release the secret 28 pages from the 9/11 report, negotiate prescription drug purchases, repeal and replace Obamacare, simplify the Tax code, repatriate $2.5 trillion in off-shore profits, stop the IRS from abridging the free speech of Christian Churches, reform the libel laws to remove the “public figure” distinctions, defund Planned Parenthood until they stop doing abortions, cleaning up the mess that is the VA, cutting waste, fraud and abuse where ever it is found, canceling Common Core and returning control of education to the States, end the assault on the Second Amendment, audit the Federal Reserve System, investigate the harmful additives in Vaccines and the coverup of studies at the CDC, and destroy the culture of Political Correctness, then we can talk about all the “conservative” issues that Ben Sapiro wants to talk about.

Little Benji is conservatism’s Kasserine Pass-—the inability of untrained, poorly led troops to do battle.

Benji “quit” Breitbart before they could fire him. He got dumped from a major national speaking circuit because people were fed up with his crap.

He is the absolute worst of conservatism right now-—a prime example of why with people like him “leading” we will never win anything.

I take my wife to work and on the way home I have about 15 minutes for some talk radio and generally have Glenn Beck on. It's EVERY flicking day he drones on and on about Trump spewing out nothing but negatives. No matter what Trump says or does, Beck finds nothing but negatives.

Shapiro's latest op-ed is just a long and convoluted way of saying "I want Hillary to win, but I can't admit to it." Which is what every NeverTrumper rant is really all about.

The GOP elites have more in common ideologically and culturally with Hillary and the Democrats than they have with Trump's grassroots supporters - the very people whose money and votes the Republican establishment needed in past elections. They just can't admit to that too loudly.

It’s only Dunkirk if that battle resulted in 40+ million Germans immigrating to the UK creating a permanent German majority. Because after Hillary is done legalizing all the 3ed worlders conservatives won’t win dog catcher in this country.

Second, Trump is not going to win. That’s not because of disaffected conservatives. That’s because he’s a joke of candidate.

So says the man with a paper asshole.

A ‘typical Union Democrat” is probably still better CP-USA endorsed Hillary.

EVERY DAY a new orchestrated attack on Trump. He’s got all the right enemies. Reason enough to vote for him.

Reasoning by analogy is only as valid as the analogies.

“Hilary is not Hitler?” OK, but Trump is no Stalin either.

And this election is neither Dunkirk nor Waterloo.

I try to ignore the NeverTrumpers, but I’m able to do that for only a few days. Then I pop!

Seems to me that Shapiro misses the analogy entirely. At Dunkirk, there were two choices, which are analogous to the choices we have before us today: (1) retreat in order to regain strength and fight another day (i.e. accept a “less than Reaganesquely pure” conservative, who at least is willing to fight the enemy, to be our standard bearer), or (2) wage a futile fight with their backs up against the water, and be wiped out (i.e. vote for a third party nobody, and be wiped out by Hillary).

Tucker Carlson: the Sad State of Modern Journalism
Accuracy in Academia ^ | August 10, 2016 | Alex Nitzberg

Posted on 8/10/2016, 9:02:47 AM by Academiadotorg

Criticizing the state of modern journalism, Tucker Carlson told AIM that journalists’ obsequious behavior, blatant bias and monolithic worldview have compromised the integrity of the nation’s fourth estate.

Carlson, a member of the Fox News team and a veteran journalist who co-founded the Daily Caller, asserts that many journalists bask in the presence of “the powerful” and are “…afraid to challenge anybody in power.”

“That’s kind of exactly the opposite of what you want. I mean the whole reason that journalists have a special kind of place in American society is because they’re entrusted with this job to kind of keep the powerful honest and to speak on behalf of the population and the second they go over to the other side and start sucking up to politicians, for example, is the second they’ve betrayed that charge.”

Questioned about the media’s election coverage Carlson opined, “I don’t think by and large they have been covering it, they’ve been advocating on behalf of one candidate against another.”
He explained that regardless of the election’s outcome, the media’s advocacy has destroyed its claim to objectivity.

Pointing out that a conflict of interest will arise if Trump wins and the largely anti-Trump media must report on his presidency, he said, “ … how are they gonna cover that, the administration? Can they? Haven’t they discredited themselves?”

“By the way,” he continued, “if Hillary wins, same thing. They’ve been working for her election and now they’re in charge of telling us what her administration is doing, can we trust them with that? I don’t think so.”

Condemning the practice of journalists who air their opinions on social media accounts, Carlson noted the corrosive effect this has on the public’s trust as they can easily discover a journalist’s political leanings.

Carlson says that while he values diversity, within the modern field of journalism “ … everybody has the same experience, they’re all from the same world, they all have the same assumptions, they all went to the same schools.”

He described journalism school as an “indoctrination center” that perpetuates the lack of diversity of thought in the media industry.
“ … journalism school is just another sameness factory that pumps out people with identical opinions, and by the way, it’s only accessible to a certain kind of person — the exact kind of person we don’t need any more of in journalism — affluent, entitled, activist.”

Carlson believes journalists should seek the truth, “even if it leads them into uncomfortable places and especially if it leads them to places they didn’t expect to arrive … that’s what I thought journalism was, pursuit of what’s true, of accuracy, but not just accuracy, of truth.”

It’s all about blocking the citizens from electing anyone as President who would enforce the immigration laws and secure the border.
The Cheap Labor Express has previously been able to nominate an amnesty candidate in every election since the last amnesty in 1986.
This time they got Trumped.
That is why they are shilling for Hillary.
They are not going to let the citizen reverse 30 years of bipartisan non-enforcement policy.
The illegal alien inundation was INTENTIONAL.

Medved is another Cheap Labor Express stooge.
He has been propagandizing his listeners for years that we cannot enforce the immigration laws or secure the borders.

They were both amnesty guys.
What really matters is keeping the people pipeline operating.

Hitler was charismatic. Hillary is more like Stalin - secretive, immoral, corrupt, paranoid and deeply homicidal.
