The weekend's last RedState Gathering panel tried to keep a stiff upper lip in the face of the Trump Revolution.
Only reality kept getting in the way.
Katie Pavlich, a Townhall editor and Fox News contributor, spoke what was probably on many attendees' minds Sunday. She clearly didn't take any joy in putting it out there.
"There aren't as many conservatives in the country as we thought there were," Pavlich said during the last of three intellectually packed days in Denver. The rise of Donald Trump, compounded with avowed socialist Bernie Sanders, made that all too clear over the past six months.
"When people like [conservative Sen.] Ben Sasse are the 'enemy,' we're in a really bad spot," she added.
Pavlich shared the stage with Townhall.com's Guy Benson, RedState Managing Editor Leon Wolf and radio talker Erick Erickson.
The focus? Moving forward after Election Day.
No votes have been tallied yet, but the panel agreed on the outcome. Trump will lose, and lose badly to Hillary Clinton.

The group pointed to leaders like Carly Fiorina, Josh Hawley and Sasse in particular as reasons for optimism.
"These are some good people, and they're on our team," Benson said.

With today’s journalistic standards, the jokes just write themselves. :-)
For you to defend Lyin’ Ted as a “Conservative” means...

- writing op-ed for WSJ to support & endorse Pirate John Roberts for SCOTUS
- Supporting NO BORDERS & North American Union for his masters - Heidi and Goldman-Sachs
- Refuses to provide paperwork he is a US citizen
- Engaged in deceit in primaries beginning with Iowa
- Partnered with the Bushie Establishment RINOs
- Blamed Trump for shutting down his speech in Chicago and NOT the leftwing racists, communists & terrorists who were responsible
- Chose Adultery with Amanda Carpenter while positioning himself as a Christian
- Refuses to stand by his word he would endorse/support the RNC nominee
...just to name of few
So you can take your “Lyin’ Ted/Jimmy Swaggart phony conservative” and go home to Comrade Hellry
Bump.
Worth repeating/reading again and again.
Try three days of economic gravy train preservation.

Bingo!
Pay no attention to the man behind the curtain!
Exactly!
C’mon, you need to keep up with the vocabulary of Newspeak. I’ll bet you don’t even know the new meanings of words like “marriage” or “separation of powers”.
Your thoughts mirror mine.
So sick of being fooled by the GOP.
Exactly.
The worst are the fake “constitutional conservatives”.
They have achieved absolutely NOTHING conservative.
Obamacare is fully funded.
No wall or border.
Abortions continue bigger than ever.
Planned Parenthood fully funded.
ISIS in more countries than ever.
More terror attacks worldwide by Mooslims than ever.
More Americans on food stamps than ever.
More Americans earning less real wages than 2 decades ago.
More regulations on small business than ever.
More national debt than ever IN SPITE of US Treasury taking in more revenues than ever.
More illegals in country than ever.
These fake conservatives are ALL TALK and NO RESULTS.
I am ready for a patriotic nationalist businessman.
Well said!
Yes, they are high-jacking the word “conservative” they way the left high-jacked the once honorable word “liberal”.
Paul Nehlen, who tried to primary Paul RHINan, has started a Pro-Trump/Anti-Clinton PAC, called “Citizen Revolt”. Just got an email from him, and I plan to donate.
Amen!
Part of the issue is that self described conservatives haven’t advanced on any important conservative goals when they’ve had power, while liberals advance on important liberal goals when they are in power.
If conservatives had something (anything) they could point to as successes, the Trump ascendancy wouldn’t have happened
thanks
Many of these pundits see the conservative movement as a money making scam. All they care about are book deals,webpage hits and getting their faces on Cable TV. Being a conservative pundit is just a career choice for them. I don’t think they have many principles. If they did they wouldn’t be doing the things that are helping Hillary get into the White House. A bunch of self promoting twits. Hillary’s election will be a financial windfall for them. What’s conservative about cheering for Hillary.
it is apparent redstate was such a money scam
Ja ja! When Steiner brings his divisions down for that offensive the Red Army will be shattered and the siege of Berlin broken forever!
Give it up, Katie. You lost.
After getting absolutely crushed in his primary, this dude must have realized how much money you can grift off the 16% who voted for him.
