Irrelevant navel gazing.
The Hysterical bunch is starting to come out of the woodwork. They know if Trump wins Iowa, he will be on a roll. Their Fear = Somebody lobbyists and pundits can’t control = They lose power.
read us all at National Review.com
And Jethro Bush or Mario Rubio would "pursue conservative goals?"
Seriously?
The anti-Trump hit pieces are coming out of the woodwork this week!
Their hope for his destruction is terrifying...
...... He desires to bring back jobs
........strengthen our military
.........honor our vets and wounded warriors
........stop common core
........etc
Just what are THEY afraid of?
Why don’t THEY want America returned to greatness.
THEY truly scare me.
Cal say adios/goodbye.
America is not listening to you and your GOPe NR thugs nor reading your garbage.
When, President Trump is sworn in, you and your NR thugs will be as relevant as the drunk and homeless in DC.
Go Trump! Leader, Fighter, Winner! America First!
I don’t “worship Trump”...but I may vote for him.
Oh boy, love being treated to all 22 NR articles, one by one. You know, if I wanted to hear endless assaholic lectures, I would have voted for AlGore.
The few, the Proud, the deceivers:
NR’s “Against Trump” Issue:
Glenn Beck
David Boaz
Brent Bozell III
Mona Charen
Ben Domenech
Erick Erickson
Steven F. Hayward
Mark Helprin
William Kristol
Yuval Levin
Dana Loesch
Andrew C. McCarthy
David M. McIntosh
Michael Medved
Edwin Meese III
Russell Moore
Michael B. Mukasey
Katie Pavlich
John Podhoretz
R.R. Reno
Thomas Sowell
Cal Thomas
The Trumpster has tapped in to the frustrations of many who no longer see any representation for them. Tools of those who seek to rule not govern, our labor stolen in ever higher taxes, regulations... near every aspect of our lives licensed, permitted and regulated to death. Trump may be a charlatan a fraud (as was Obama)... but the support he receives is real and deep. Tis interesting the “outsiders” are despised by the GOPe as much as they are the Democrats. Tells us much... that the Washington/lobbyist/K-street/BIG MONEY cartel is in charge... and will seek the destruction of any who even question much less oppose... always dismissed as “bigots” of “haters”. The irony of “progressivism” is in spite of its rhetoric, the goal is total rule over the populace by the 1% political rich class. The insurgents are now at the gate!
The National Review issue that attacks Trump will only inspire his supporters. In fact, it may wind up being the final boost in Iowa that gives Donald the nomination.
National Review just handed Donald Trump the Election

National Review’s publication of the collective anti-Donald Trump missives from 22 self-appointed conservative potentates has caused quite a stir in Republican circles.
The nationwide responses range from, “Wait, I thought National Review went out of business years ago,” to “Ed Meese? Seriously?”
The Gang of 22 have officially become parodies of themselves. One would have to reach back to the days of Richard Nixon and Spiro Agnew to lift an adequate quote to describe them.
“Nattering nabobs of negativism,” “vicars of vacillation,” “pusillanimous pussyfooters,” “the decadent few,” “ideological eunuchs,” “the effete corps of impudent snobs,” or “the hopeless, hysterical hypochondriacs of history” - take your pick, because they all apply about equally well to each and every one of them.
So clueless is the Gang of 22 they can’t even see how they’ve stumbled right into the narrative Trump’s been communicating so successfully for months. Just like the elected officials from both parties, the Gang of 22 has been GREAT at complaining about stuff, year, after year, after year.
But getting anything accomplished? Not so much.
Many of the Gang of 22 have been hanging around and chattering for decades, and some are active cogs in the Conservative Entertainment Complex, deriving their income by pandering to conservative anger while offering no real solutions.
Donald Trump represents a threat to these ineffectual poohbahs in the same way he represents a threat to do-nothing public officials.
Jealousy is also seriously at work here. Trump is inspiring and exciting a broad spectrum of the country like no member of the Gang of 22 ever has, or ever will.
In just seven months of campaigning, Trump already has more Americans listening to a Republican message than the entire Gang of 22 could muster over decades.
Trump understands that before you can advance the ball, you have to convince people to take time from their busy lives to listen. No one on the GOP side since Ronald Reagan has accomplished that like Trump.
No one else has come close, and certainly no one from that “effete corps of impudent snobs” to which the National Review thinks we should defer.
The Gang of 22 had their chance. They’ve done a lot of bitching over the years, and it paid well for some.
But Americans care about results. They can plainly see that all of the empty talk from the Gang of 22 got us eight years of Barack Obama, and a loss in pretty much every conservative battle there was to lose.
At the same time when Americans look at Donald Trump’s life they get a lot of assurance that here is finally a man who shares their focus on actually getting results. And Trump returns the respect by recognizing regular hard-working Americans are a lot smarter than any of the “ideological eunuchs” in all of their pontificating glory.
The “pusillanimous pussyfooters” love to nitpick Trump’s words, but what voters are looking for this year is competence and accomplishment. Donald Trump has an actual record of delivering both in spades.
The Gang of 22 is right to be terrified. A President who could get things done would expose them as the irrelevant creatures they truly are.
It can’t happen fast enough.

And then pray hard that he won't turn right around and expedite them back in.
Apparently, Cal being born in 1942 is irrelevant to this innocuous hit about Trump's age. Like Trump of whom you imply is 'settled in his worldview' as something bad is nothing like your effing 'worldview'....... Go suck it you conniving deceitful, masquerading old twit.
Now watch the braying trumpeters continue to refuse to address any of the substance of the article and instead call it irrelevant and then shoot the messenger....cuz the Donald, why he’s just soooooo dreamy.
What an elitist jackass. All he's really saying is some people's opinions are worth more than others and the American people being blued, screwed and tattooed by Washington for decades isn't a good enough reason to be angry.
He best be glad I can't reach through this monitor, or I'd SHOW him 'angry'.
Time to put America back to work.
Pundits and Politician need not apply. Only product members of society wanted.

Imagine giving this advice to a Republican presidential candidate: What if you stopped calling yourself a conservative and instead just promised to make America great again?
What if you dropped all this leftover 19th-century piety about the free market and promised to fight the elites who were selling out American jobs?
What if you just stopped talking about reforming Medicare and Social Security and instead said that the elites were failing to deliver better healthcare at a reasonable price?
What if, instead of vainly talking about restoring the place of religion in society something that appeals only to a narrow slice of Middle America. You simply promised to restore the Middle American core, the economic and cultural losers of globalization to their rightful place in America?
What if you said you would restore them as the chief clients of the American state under your watch, being mindful of their interests when regulating the economy or negotiating trade deals?

So you write a long emotion based screed based on the logical fallacy of stating your opinion as fact and you expect to be treated with anything BUT contempt Cal?
Try writing a rational reasoned piece instead of a emotional diatribe Cal, and we might take you seriously.
This is the second one today. They’re doubling down. Boy they’re really showing us!
