Even some of their other chief writers like Charles Cooke, who is a huge pro-gun guy, have no problem with homo marriage. Ditto for Williamson who is the big rising star at the mag. And they tolerated Steyn, maybe the biggest star in the conservative firmament, forced out of the mag by some homosexual dweeb like Jason Steorts. That by itself is a gross miscarriage of justice.
It seems many straight talkers have been forced out of the mag....John Derbyshire, Ann Coulter, and recently Mark Steyn. I think Williamson and Goldberg better watch themselves before they're kicked out by the homosexual clique that seems to running things there.
I subscribed from 1976 to 1990. By 1990 the great writers I had once read there had left or been booted by the new crowd. It’s only gotten worse.
I don’t give a damn about Jonah or NRO...THEYRE NOT RUNNING FOR PREZ. Trump is, and this is VALID about Trump. Answer any of these at your own peril.
Heres one point to respond to:
You seem to think hes an immigration hardliner, and hes certainly pretending to be. But why cant you see through it? He condemned Mitt Romney as an immigration hardliner in 2012 and favored comprehensive immigration reform. He told Bill OReilly he was in favor of a path to citizenship for 30 million illegal immigrants.
and this....
Trump: You have to give them a path. You have 20 million, 30 million, nobody knows what it is. It used to be 11 million. Now, today I hear its 11, but I dont think its 11. I actually heard you probably have 30 million. You have to give them a path, and you have to make it possible for them to succeed. You have to do that. Question: Just how many rapists and drug dealers did Donald Trump want to give green cards to?
Lets not forget:
The man wrote in his own book and said elsewhere that he was in favor of Canadian-style socialized medicine which would put him to the left of Hillary Clinton and Barack Obama, and on pretty much the same page as Bernie Sanders.
and...
Trump praised Hillary Clinton and her health-care reform plan in 2007! She attended his (most recent) wedding. He donated to her campaigns and to the Clinton Foundation. In 2008, he couldnt get his head around the fact that Obama didnt pick her for VP. Im a big fan of Hillary. Shes a terrific woman. Shes a friend of mine.
THIS is a goodie too:
People tout the guys business record. But he represents almost exactly what his supporters think he opposes. Hes a crony capitalist par excellence. He gives to whatever politician can grease the skids for his next deal and he makes no apologies for it. Hes an eminent-domain voluptuary. He abuses bankruptcy laws like a stack of homemade get-out-of-jail-free cards.
or...
Im totally pro-choice. I hate it and I hate saying it. And Im almost ashamed to say that Im pro-choice but I am pro-choice because I think we have no choice.
Conservatism is a body of ideas, beliefs, and temperaments. The amazing thing is that Trump is both a RINO and a CINO. Im sure he has some authentic and sincere conservative views down in there somewhere. But the idea that hes more plausibly conservative or more loyally Republican than Ted Cruz, Rand Paul, Scott Walker, or any of the others is just flatly absurd.
