Interview: Bill Kristol and John Ziegler Agree that Conservatism Would Be Better Off Had Hillary Won
Mediaite ^ | March 4 2019 | John Ziegler

Posted on 03/06/2019 5:46:25 PM PST by rintintin

n the modern history of American politics, has there been a group deemed so completely irrelevant, while also being the subject of continuous attacks, even from the president of the United States, as “Never Trump” conservatives? Yesterday, I interviewed conservative commentator Bill Kristol, who is the de facto leader of that movement, of which I am usually a supporter.

The conversation was part of my new Individual 1 podcast, which focuses, twice a week, on chronicling the Trump presidency from a conservative perspective. We hit on a number of important topics, including the lunacy of CPAC, whether it would have been better if Trump had lost to Hillary, whether Kristol’s plan to find a legitimate challenger for Trump in the 2020 GOP primary is realistic, which Democrats Kristol could support in 2020 against Trump, and what the future holds after Trump is gone.

The nation would be better off if Kristol and those of his ilk moved to South America.

These losers make me so sick. They pretend they are keeoers of conservatism, which means lose, complain, apologize, avoid cultural social issues, pander to illegals so the hispanics don’t hate us more, pander to China and Saudis, drop bombs on Iraq, and once in a while cut taxes a little tiny bit

Their definition of conservatism is to be the lapdog of the democrats.

Beware the snipers wearing your uniform lurking in the shadows at your back. This why it was so important for we Conservatives to stop supporting the "lesser of two evils" and start casting votes only for worthy candidates. Had John McCain, Mitt Romney, or Jeb Bush won the presidency, people like Bill Kristol would still be the voice of the party giving us the slow boil toward socialism and fascism. These candidates lost their presidential bids, which cranked up the heat and brought us to a quick boil. We jumped out of the pot when we voted for Trump. I hope my FReeper FRiends can finally understand why I (we) rejected the lesser of two evils candidates even when they had an "R" behind their names.

OMG, I love it that you’re able to dredge up stupid-ass articles on weenie Trotskyite pinheads like Bill Kristol.

Question for you:

Do you own an icepick?

“As they well know, true conservatives are supposed to be losers.”

In a way, you are right. Conservatives of yesteryear when offended, just took the high road and kept quiet. When Roe v Wade happened, they just manned up and took it. When the lefties took over the public school system, they just turned a blind eye. When sexual perversion was normalized, they just kept quiet or someone might be offended.

IMO what I stated above is pretty much true or all of it would have been stopped in it’s tracks.

So yes, a true conservative could be considered a loser, as we’ve just about lost the whole damn country!

I don’t know what Kristol is complaining about. Trump is now implementing a NeoCon endless war foreign policy, keeping us in permanent occupation of other nations, and threatening more wars.

Can we ask Bill Kristol to sit down and shut up now?

Better yet, sit down inside the rim of the toilet bowl, shut up, and pull the flush level hard.

Now he’s with his element down there.

Never mind that country would have been permanent damaged and rights, like the right of individuals to bear arms, would have been eliminated. Or that Democrats would have been able to keep importing voters, including the Muslim cancer, to give themselves a permanent voting majority.

Billy Kristol. Wasn’t he the one who went into stand up hate Trump comedy when his magazine folded at the end of last year?

You dumbass pimples on the ass of time have to come to the realization that the vast majority of true conservatives love Trump and despise your worthless asses. Just go away and stop wasting oxygen.

They have been talking about the same problems for years. Trump comes along and fixes them. They are out of a job.

OMG! Are these guys idiots or what !
Maybe conservatism would be better off but the country would be down the toilet just on the illegal immigrantion alone. We would have millions of new people. I would hate to see what would have happened to the courts and foreign policy

At least we now see that they think about us.The same way that Hillary thinks about us . Cult!!! What arrogant, supercilious God awful pricks’ these guys are.

Look at what Trump has been able to accomplish all while fighting Dem, Mueller, and Republican RINOs.

Leads one to think they are complicit. How is it so many cannot see this?

Ah, so this is THAT Ziegler who burned every bridge behind him as he stormed his weak ego through radio!

The one claim he may keep is that he is the one who exposed America as believing Sarah Palin had actually said she could see Russia from her house, when that was a line said by Tina Fey on SNL.

Sounds like he and Kristol should get a room and fall in love. They are so odious the mirrors might all crack though.

I finally can. I hate parties now. I’m with you. Jersey colors and rah rah rah should be reserved for sports teams only.
