The Unwashed have, however, read enough to know that Democrats never do this — never attack their own voters like NRO and the rest of the Establishment have this year.
But maybe — just maybe — because they spend all their time in the Real World and not hiding inside NRO’s erudite reading list, the Unwashed also intuitively understand that what NRO and the Establishment have been peddling for five presidential cycles is pure undiluted, self-serving bull shit.
The Unwashed might not have read Shakespeare, but they can read a paycheck.
The Unwashed might not have read Capitalism and Freedom, but they have read a pink slip as their job went overseas or to an exploited illegal immigrant.
The Unwashed might not have consumed the same library of Greek and Roman classics (in the original or in translation) but they have consumed years of “Dial 1 for English,†Common Core math problems, terror attacks committed by immigrants, and an Establishment so removed Jeb Bush is being sold as a winner because … he speaks Spanish.
The Unwashed might not read a publication that still pines for a Real Conservative, no less than the architect of ObamaCare who has already lost a nationwide presidential election, but they can read a country slipping away into a morass of political correctness, identity politics, and a Republican Party more concerned with the trough that comes with treating illegal immigrants better than Americas working class.
NRO simply cant believe Americans are stupid enough to fall for a slogan like Make America Great Again.

NRO is ignoring the facts: Trump’s support is pretty the same across all income lines, gender lines, class lines, etc.; check out the breakdown of this recent Reuters poll:

I hope so, however it is hard to say. White America seems to have abdicated its right and duty to govern and devoted itself to the bestial philosophy of: eating, drinking, drugging, copulating, evacuating the bowels and snoring.
Some truth in what you observe.
I resemble that remark, just not the Trump Voter part.
Years ago before everything was online I subscribed to National Review mag. Three months into a year subscription I received a notice to renew, followed shortly by a nasty letter saying that they thought I was an intelligent, discerning person but they were wrong about me and very disappointed that I didn’t realize the only good thing I could do for myself is renew my subscription.
These are the people who wanted George H.W. Bush over Ronald Reagan. The George Will douchebags. They now are running National Review into the ground.
Right on cue, one of them shows up to prove the point.
elitism and paternalism
IBD
The New American
Buckley was out of focus and the reason I cancelled my NR subscription decades ago.
He sided with Jimmy Carter in giving the Panama Canal away.
I’m no fan of National Review but this article could have at least have posted the quote where National Review called Republican voters “ignorant bigots”
“Unwashed” really means “unBRAINwashed”.
How DARE you attack the largest group of voters in America!!!
After all these years, after holding our noses, making less and less on our paychecks, having to work 2-3 jobs a day to feed our families, doing without health care because it's to expensive, having to ‘hold our noses’ to vote for these ‘globalist’ idiots that are running our country and then you sit back and whine because ‘America is going to the dogs’ and your the highest reason it is, and we finally get someone who isn't a ‘politician’ or a ‘governor’ to see how business works, someone I might remind you, that you have been ‘searching’ for and now we have that person and you can't get him out of the race so now your attacking the Very Americans that make this country tick?
You are very, very stupid!!! Just how do you think your so important that you sitting in your ‘glass house’ can look down at your nose at us? The Veterans and the Wounded Warriors that have fought to keep your butt safe with the freedoms of this country? For the people that go to work everyday and come home and worry about if they'll have a job to go to the next day...you sanctimonious butthole!!!
Oh I could tell you what you really are, and hopefully before I die and leave this Great Earth, I will have that opportunity because when I got thru with telling you what we really think of you, you would slither away under the next rock!!!
“Who is conservative anymore?”
That would be me! :^)
I'm not leaving the party, the party jas left me. - Ronald Reagan
Bernie Sanders and National Review agree, big government experience trumps business experience and private enterprise.
In other words government class values are better than business values, according to Bernie and National Review.
KABC radio is doing the samething from a few radio hosts.
Hrumpf!
NR’s total strawman argument. I saw the same on SNL.
