And will the NeverTrumpers finally be exposed to have been as contemptible as the NeverQueegers were in The Caine Mutiny?
The Left, the NeverTrump Right, and many independents are tiring of Donald Trump’s recitations of prior, however justified, grievances at the hands of the media, the Democratic Party, the administrative state, and hard-core Left.
The conventional wisdom runs that Trump’s whines and victimization recitations reveal deep paranoias, and increasingly to an obsessive degree. We are told that his near neurotic obsessions with the unfairness of his critics are alienating the independent voter, who finds Trump’s strolls down 2020-21 memory lane the same-old, same-old ad nauseam.
True, Trump’s occasional recklessness contributed to many of his misadventures. At least at some point, friendly critics suggest, he might have realized that his nationalist/populist agenda, his orphaned outsider status, his lack of prior political experience, and his estrangement from the Republican political hierarchy, bipartisan Washington, D.C. media and government fixtures gave him no margin of error—despite what prior presidents and our current commander-in-chief have been accorded.
The haters would have hated Trump regardless, But his tweets and ad hominem retorts served to disguise their peremptory venom while instead highlighting his own retaliatory crudity.
“Fact-checkers” doted on every Trump statement, nitpicking them to find some exaggeration, or untruth. Fine. But then these same hypercritics simply went comatose during the Biden Administration, with little care that Biden spins fantasies daily, from a son lost in the Iraq War to insulting claims that he passed his student loan amnesty in the Congress by a close vote, and on and on. With Trump, voters got real achievement with coarseness, with Biden utter failure with near senility.
The media lied about supposed felonious behavior of the two Trump sons during the Russian collusion mania.

vermont lt is a rino douche nozzle.
So this guy is all good with trusting hagiographic autobiographies like Barr's to tell the "real story", and additionally trusting an entire media that pushed the Trump Pee-Pee Hoax for years and then deliberately suppressed the Hunter Biden laptop story and has malignantly lied repeatedly about everything, and has done so for years. Even worse, they have collaborated with the Left in the political persecution of conservatives.
Apparently the Person Of Stature is all good with trusting that. All in on that.
I prefer to base my judgements on the veracity of a source or a person by looking at past performance. If someone lies to me on something of substance, and I discover it, it is pretty hard to overcome that. If someone is contrite, has a reason, and wants to make up for it, I give those people a chance.
But when someone or something lies to me, they know they are lying, they they know that I know it, but do it all the same with malevolent intent, well, I think I would be a fool to give them another chance. And I think people who don't think that way have a screw loose.
Trust is not a thing given, it is a thing earned.
In any case, that statement at the top of this post speaks volumes. He is something, RINO, Douchenozzle, or both, but he is no critical thinker, and no conservative.
Not someone I want to associate with.
I would say 50% of Freepers are 1) old 2) Old school mainstream Republicans that hate Trump’s “style”. Dilettantes
The latter. No one in finance, apparently, believes there will ever be an accounting for the perpetual deficit economy and the mass creation of money by the FED.
Oh yeah. Just shut up and accept the fact that the deep state can steal elections any time they want. Shut up Trump and let the uniparty get back to business as usual.
