The He-Man Trump Haters Club (The "Third Way" Equals Voting for Hillary)

Watching the efforts to stop Donald Trump run through the primaries to the convention this week, I was reminded of the Our Gang “He-Man Woman Haters Club” where Spanky and his friends embark on a futile effort to keep the members from ever falling in love with a girl.

How much of the anti-Trump conservative animus is motivated by Not of our Class snobbery and how much by the knowledge that a lot of D.C. rice bowls might be smashed by Trump is hard to say, but I think Newt Gingrich’s observation deserves serious consideration:

“I think it’s pretty simple. If you want to help elect Hillary Clinton, and you want to make sure that the unionized bureaucracies are totally in control, and you want to have a radical Supreme Court to finish eliminating our liberties, then play games like this. But that’s what they are: They’re games,” Gingrich tells Breitbart News Executive Chairman and SiriusXM host Stephen K. Bannon on Breitbart News Daily.

There are two choices in America,” Gingrich said. “There’s the choice that accepts the continued decay and continued radicalization of Americans. That’s the Hillary Clinton road. And there’s the choice that says no, we need an alternative, and that’s the Donald Trump road.”

And these people who the self-important definers of America, who are telling us about this fancy third choice, they make no sense at all. They ought to at least be honest and say to people: “You know, I’d rather have Hillary Clinton than the Republican nominee.” Because that’s what they’re doing. They ought to just form “Lost Republicans for Hillary” and be honest about the effect of what they’re doing

Everyone keeps telling me the Trump is a liberal, and that Bernie Sanders and Hillary Clinton are more conservative than him (no joking about this part read here). I'm so confused. /sarc

Your linked comment by another FReeper doesn't support your characterization.

The poster meant only that Trump is not a conservative (not what we in here would call one). Tea Party Express is conservative, various Tea Party orgs are conservative; NGOA is conservative; Promise Keepers is conservative; Media Research Center (Bozell) is conservative; Pamela Geller is conservative; Eagle Forum is conservative. Lots of people and NGO's are conservative. Trump isn't really -- he's a cafeteria diner, in the sense of "cafeteria Catholics", an eclectic non-liberal, non-Prog, non-neoStalinist.

The one thing that makes me nervous about Trump is that 45-minute phone call he made to Slick before he went out and made his announcement he was running.

Bill Clinton likes to work on the phone when setting up his most notorious plays. When getting serviced by Monica Lewinsky, he was on the phone. When working in the shadows to sabotage George W. Bush's second term with the "Katrina" play, he worked exclusively by phone via James Carville, who passed Clinton's advice to Sen. Mary Landrieu, who in turn steered Louisiana Gov. Kathleen Blanco to frustrate and lead on Pres. Bush's FEMA team to a complete fiasco, which the MSM then blamed exclusively on Bush and his FEMA director, ignoring the parts played by Mayor Nagin, Gov. Blanco, Sen. Landreiu, James Carville, and the Man Behind the Curtain.

Clinton likes to create disasters and blame them on other people, taking full advantage of his media shills and saps.

He blamed OKC on Rush and Newt and found enthusiastic takers throughout his MSM claque, who'd been burning Newt alive for five months by the time the bomb went off.
He adopted the 1995 government shutdown play put forward in the first place by Tom Daschle, which was to shut down the government, stop the paychecks and Social Security checks -- and blame the child-molesting, pet-abusing, robber-rapist Republican Caucus.
The Joe Wilson/Valerie Plame Affair was likewise a political defamation operation sprung by Bill Clinton on his unsuspecting successor, George W. Bush.

That is why any considerable contact between any political player and Bill Clinton is acute cause for concern, that Clinton is using intermediaries to hurt, damage, or defame anyone, any group, and anything between Beastwoman and the White House.
