Trump’s alt-right fans bail after Syria strikes
yahoo ^

Posted on 04/07/2017 12:46:21 PM PDT by ChicagoConservative27

Throughout the campaign and the early days of his presidency, President Trump garnered near lockstep support from a number of alt-right leaders and conservative media members. While there were moments of wavering — such as when Trump muddled his positions on immigration and Obamacare — they mostly remained on his side.

Mike Cernovich, the alt-right conspiracy theorist and author praised by Donald Trump Jr. on Tuesday, spent much of Thursday night live streaming and tweeting against the military action and those in favor of it:

After Trump approved missile strikes in Syria on Thursday night, that opinion changed. In sharp contrast to a majority of Republican politicians and many media pundits, the group of alt-right figures criticized Trump after supporting him over Hillary Clinton, who they saw as the more interventionist candidate. (Clinton also supported the strikes.)

Noting to do with alt-right. I disagree with Trump here. I disagreed with Bush on Iraq’s WMD, with Bill Clinton on Serbia.

I don’t agree with it either. Didn’t agree with Obama bombing Assad/Syria via drones and I don’t support it now.

While I’m sympathetic with your position as are many, many Freepers, consider the following:

It’s November 2020.
It’s Election Day.
It’s Donald Trump vs. Bernie Sanders.

Who are you going to vote for!

Alt-Right.

There’s that phrase again.

This time it applies to Freepers who jeered at Cruz and the Never Trumpers.

Only to bail out on Trump the first time he takes decisive action on a global stage.

I’m not real excited about this, feels like he got backed into it by the globalist types. But it’s mainly because I’m skeptical of the evidence that Assad did this. If he did, then it’s the right response.

It’s like these people think the decision making is the same as putting the question to FR and then waiting for a consensus.

No person can be president in that climate, which explains why most of the so-called right never even tries.

They’re mistaking “Never Trump” people with Trump supporters.

Stupid media.

You guys should have your pictures next to the word cult in the dictionary :)

He did what he said he wouldn’t do.

I like a lot of what he’s done, but he bashed the freedom caucus, (here’s where you guys will pick a few bad things some of them said or did) and now this insanity.

But have a great weekend!!

It’s not personal, it’s business :)

Well, I used to be in charge of a major military apparatus in the 1990’s and I didn’t.

You go ahead and bail. Keep in mind the detractors do not believe in your Constitution. That is a document signed that completely limits a central intervention into your states sovereignty. You now have the entire world wanting the USA to give up its freedom.

Good for you.

When you add all the curious stances up, it seems the alt-right that are bailing on Trump over this are just paulbots come back to life.

“I am a mainline conservative and I bailed.”

That didn’t take long...in spite of everything he has done....a spoiled brat comes to mind.

You Never Trumpers never leave him alone. He’s our duly elected president. Get over it. Stop hoping he’ll be there for assad, putin, and the mad mullahs.

Never lockstep with anyone.
Never have been, never will be.

Trump was still a better bet than Clinton.

I didn’t know there were so many doves on FR. This is exactly in line with Trump’s stance from day one: Strong decisive military, take out ISIS. How is this supposed to get done? More letters like Obama did?

Amen!

It was UnConstitutional Period, No Deceleration of War! No Imminent attack on the United States. It was also a violation the the UN charter of attacking an sovereign nation! The US, Trump and all the flag waving Bomb Bomb Bomb is in Error Period. Trump own words was this was because of the children being killed. Well News alert here in our own Country WE Are MURDERING Millions! where is the same Priority and energy in Stopping that MURDER??? We are Embracing Evil and need to Really think about what we are doing!

Also Trump is not being lied to, he is part of the problem, he to is status quo, it just needs to be his people(winners) that are in power.

God Bless

I’ll criticize who I want, when I want, where I want, however many times I want.

Trump was still a better bet than Clinton but that doesn’t mean I have to keep quiet.

We are not taking out ISIS.
If anything we are helping them.
