3-2-1 until a trumpeter is here squawking about how VDH is not a conservative!!!!!
6 months late
I’d rather forget the National Review. In fact, I think that’s exactly what I’ll do.
The GOP needs to be damaged. It needs to have a stake put in its heart and start over. Give me a break. Trump is the best thing to happen to the Republican party in over 20 years.
I don’t need VDH or anyone else to explain things to me. What I know is that I’d like to see a true citizen-President, someone who has spent a career outside government, serve as President. A businessman who understands how the economy works as one who has met a payroll, risked his own money, and been held accountable for results.
I just want to see this kind of person in the White House. We’ve tried Senators, Governors, Congressmen, Military Generals, Harvard Lawyers, Non-Harvard Lawyers, Rhodes Scholars, and career politicians of every stripe. If you like the outcomes they’ve produced, then there are plenty of non-Trump choices to vote fore.
I’m voting for Trump. at least once.
Excellent point that VDH makes here:
These comparisons to major Democratic figures could be easily expanded, but the issue is not tu quoque. The point is only that Trump is well within today’s political norms — at least the debased norms established by our corrupt media and by public perceptions of what is said and done by supposedly caring and empathetic progressives such as Obama, Clinton, Biden, and Reid. The battle to create a polite and courteous society in 21st-century America was lost some years ago — often by hypocrites who now both engage in and deplore political smear and slander.

Forget Trump? Wow, is VDH suffering from early onset denentia? :)
National Review continues the attack. If they destroy Trump, his voters go with him along with the energy and enthusiasm.
Rebuke away, you puke!
Can I get an 'Amen Hallelujah'..
If only for that reason, Trump is working miracles!!

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 re store 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?

Cruz won the only state he could, his day in the sun, set last night.
So National Review runs a special “Against Trump” issue; and now VDH thinks he can sweet-talk the Trump supporters into instead going with a RINO de Jour? Think again. We don’t want to join the RINOs, we want to destroy them.
Actually a pretty worthy and readable script by Victor Davis Hanson.
Discounting Trump because Ted got 1 more vote is stupid, childish, and silly. Anyone thinking someone should an entire 50 State race because they got 1 less vote in the first State is a quitter, a loser, and I’d love to see them make the same claim if their candidate loses the next State by one vote.
Trump is to be commended if only for spending $200k while the other candidates are spending 100 times that much. Considering that he has only one less delegate than Cruz who spent $20 million, that speaks volumes about what Trump can do to slash waste from our economy.
Summary:
1. There’s no telling what Trump would do if elected.
2. Other candidates might not do any better.
3. Rude demagoguery has a long and storied history.
