Ya know, I was very disappointed at NRO and others for trashing Trump but once he became the republican nominee most came around to support him. That’s a healthy sign of vigorous debate within the party.
What I will never understand is the total lack of debate within the democrat party. Their nominee was a pathetic piece of excrement as evidenced by Trump’s resounding EC victory, yet nobody in her party stepped up to oppose or even critique her. Bernie was a joke. Elected officials, the media, popular culture, and the rest of the progressive socialists were moot.
Progressivism (as defined by the Democrat Party) doesn't work and an analysis or debate of it might reveal that fact.
Hence, no debate, no analysis, no dissension.
