Conservative movement professionals in Washington, D.C. are plotting to form a “blacklist” of Donald Trump supporters that they can kick out of the movement, never to return.
Several conservative talking heads and Beltway consultant types have been very angry about the rise of businessman Trump, who is pushing for American sovereignty, a reversal of neoconservative foreign policy, and competitive bidding for pharmaceuticals even though the drug companies that fund the Republican Party would take a financial hit.
So far, anti-Trump think pieces referencing William F. Buckley have been ineffective. Memes comparing Trump to Hitler haven’t worked. So these Republicans are getting more Nixon-y. They’re coming out with an Enemies List.
CNN contributor and former Sen. Ted Cruz (R-TX) spokeswoman Amanda Carpenter volunteered to take the lead in writing the list.
But Carpenter, who once got called an “idiot” by Donald Trump, did not mention that she formerly defended Trump on numerous occasions. Luckily, savvy Twitter users pointed it out for her in the responses below her tweet.
Carpenter later explained the terms for inclusion on her “blacklist.”
Carpenter is not alone in calling for a blacklist. Red State contributing editor Ben Howe said that he has the resources to get a high-tech “blacklist” off the ground, as well as seed money from God knows who in the donor class.
Others in the conservative media industry have called for “no forgiveness” for “Trump enablers” and have warned that the conservative movement will “never forget.”
Matt Walsh compiled a preliminary blacklist over at the Blaze.

Blacklisted: Drudge, Coulter, Hannity, Carson, Breitbart, O’Reilly, Christie Make GOP Smart Set’s List of ‘Ideological Hustlers’
Blacklisted? WOW! Can I get on the list. Sounds like an honor these days. Do they issue certificates or anything?
Hmmmm. Some of those people are among Trump’s biggest supporters. Which makes me think that this whole article is an Alinskyite lie.
Add me to the list please.
In time, it will come to be seen as an Honor Roll.
The GOP is done.
Stick a fork in it.
May as well start a below the net movement to get a new party during the Hillabeast regime.
They want to own the definition of conservative even if the definition is no different than liberal.
I am the conservative template and I’m for Trump.
It’s an honor to make that list.
Hmmmm. Some of those people are among Trump’s biggest supporters. Which makes me think that this whole article is an Alinskyite lie.

Sure smells like that to me also, with Hillary’s bloody hands all over it...
The more hysterical the anti-Trumpers get the better Trump looks.
Blacklisted by whom?
The full FR blacklist would shut out all voices other than those who promote Trump and probably a whole lot that do.
For me, the only one I don’t read is breitbart. Nothing ideological - I just hate the web page and the adds.
..plotting to form a “blacklist” of Donald Trump supporters that they can kick out of the movement...
How can you kick someone out of a movement? By way of room 101? Or, the thought police?How Orwellian.
It is the GOPe that has isolated itself. And they can’t comprehend what is happening to them. Even more importantly, why.
The blacklist can go both ways...
There is a war involving wealth going on behind the scenes and all these folks are being brought into that war.
I’m beginning to get some sense where the battle lines are drawn, but I’m still trying to figure it out.
I WANT one of those certificates too!!! Almost as much as I want that GREAT umbrella Trump has!!! On second thought I WANT the certificate MORE!!!!
Really lodi? How many publications and radio shows have you blacklisted. Was that due to desperation?
Blah Blah Blah... from TrumpBart.com. This is how the game works. Hell Tea Party formed blacklist against Palin bashers. Ironic that TrumpBart that pretends to neutral but is in that tank for Trump. reports other want a blacklist. Anyone else see the irony?

The Neo-Cons and the Donor Class.
Most of us Trump supporters are making our own list of traitors. We won’t forget easily.
