Hugh Hewitt has been supporting Trump.

I listen when I can because there are so few choices. Hewitt does okay.

I say we just ignore Jonah and his ilk. From now on, he’s Jonah Who? to me.

And there was a time when I admired this fellow’s writing.

I think what gets me, is all of them. George Will, Steve Hayes, Goldberg, Glenn Beck etc. They totally misread the guy’s following. I’m not a kook. I think the majority on this forum are like Jim Robinson. We are red blooded Americans. This election made me realize how utterly numb this @sshats are to what mainstream Americans are all about.

I listen to Trump, and he speaks for me. He says and does things I like, and when he doesn’t, it’s like I didn’t understand him, and then I do, and admit he was right again.

Jonah,

I didn’t read your article, but base this response on your headline.

Trump IS an intervention.

And here’s the best lines in the article by this egg head:

“But most grating of all are the people who sincerely think he should be the Republican nominee for president of the United States.

On this, I’m afraid we’re going to have to disrespectfully disagree. First of all, HE’LL NEVER BE PRESIDENT OF THE UNITED STATES.

I won’t go into all of the reasons I think this, but a few off the top of my head:

his enormous negatives, even among Republicans;
the Midas’s hoard of oppo-research material that surely lurks beneath the surface;
and his comments about women, which alone would turn the gender gap into a chasm.

To borrow a line from Mark Steyn, a President Trump would have more ex-wives than the previous 44 presidents combined.

Too bad Jonah turned out to be such a jealous sort!

Sorry the time for niceties is long past. I didn’t work my a$$ off in college and beyond without age class or union protections to support a tsunami of invading polyglot parasites and I didnt have a near miss on 9\11 to become enlightened about the benefits of importing a death cult. I voted dutifully for W McCain and Romney but when Julian Bond and other racial arsonists called GOPers the American Taliban, when La Raza BLM etc assaulted GOPers the politicians listed above plus 16 low energy candidates, the “conservative” press including Jonah, and Cruzbots like you were nowhere to be found in our defense.

Very well said! The lack of response to the hateful bigoted left and their race baiting and totalitarianism tactics from our so called representatives has been DEPLORABLE!

Depends how you count it. Most of the former presidents who cheated didn't bother to marry their mistresses. At least Trump married Marla. I'm glad he finally found someone who appears to love him deeply instead of just loving the public persona and glitz.

You really aren’t making any sense. I certainly voted for and supported Trump, if that is what you mean.

I am very pleased he is president compared to Hillary.

And I like his cabinet picks.

He does have some populist non-conservative statements. For example he apparently supports a new entitlement for you and me to pay women so they can sit around and not may taxes while you and I support them. I don’t support this liberal crap, and you should not either.

Time for us to make the best lemonade we can from the ingredients we have. It could have been all vinegar.
