Blacklisted: Drudge, Coulter, Hannity, Carson, Breitbart, O’Reilly, Christie Make GOP Smart Set’s List of ‘Ideological Hustlers’
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.
Has anyone compiled the definitive list of conservatives who should be blackballed for supporting Trump? I will if it doesn't exist.

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.”
My blacklist is limited to people who have formally endorsed Trump. Not those who simply explain the phenomenon. https://t.co/KrbutWYesO

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.

"Oh, no, no, you mean African-American-listed."
Good reminder of the Establishment promise.
Why they don’t realize is they are the ones getting kicked out, taken down a dirt road and let out, dropped off at the pound ... The party moving on, having solved it’s problem, it was the party leaders all the time, bye bye ...
This makes no sense. Inanity run amuck. Clickbait? This reminds me of the loser kids in Jr High who would sit over at their own lunch table and solemnly agree that they would never hang with the cool kids even if they were asked!
we need to start making ‘lists’ of ‘they ‘ are too
payback will be a b!+@#
Ted Cruz builds a swing set for his daughters.
Add exit82 to the list.
Proudly.
They can blacklist until the cows come home, it isn’t going to stop the Trump Train.
Amazing to see who so stupidly plant themselves on the wrong side of history.
There is no “Vote against Trump” choice on the ballots in any state in the USA. People vote FOR someone in hopes they will win.
This disordered argument about votes “against” someone is grade school logic.
They have a blacklist and REAL, TRUE Conservatives can’t even turn off Fox News. When are people going to do more than just bit** ?
Have you ditched Jeff Session yet?
I didn’t know Erickson got fired but glad of it.
As of now, it has been retweeted 1,491 times....and liked 4,022 times.
This blackball list is a bunch of crap. The list maker is a former Cruz spokesperson.
These people are truly losing their minds.
Just sit out then. You and your purist ilk have us Obama and create an atmosphere that allows a guy like Trump.
I guess Hillary meets your standards.
B-b-b-but he’s winning!
Idiots, do your damndest!
This really is an apt comment under these circumstances. Or can one of these clowns inform us just whom they believe will take their irrational flight of fancy seriously? I mean other than one of the delusional few behind this absurd threat?
“The better question is why are you supporting Trump, if you think he’s a RINO?”
And even better question is why haven’t the rest of the Trumpbots figured this out?
this is the most educational campaign of my lifetime.
many masks are being torn off !
"Always"????
Trump said in 2000 he was in favor of universal healthcare.
"Universal healthcare" is just a weasel phrase for govt-budgeted socialized healthcare.
And, any time to get the govt interwoven into ALL of the healthcare details, it = MORE $govtdollars for abortion.
Who is Amanda Carpenter and how do I get on the list? I hereby formally endorse Donald J. Trump. will that do it?
What? "Purist" only because we won't sleep with the latest RINO to don a Republican mask?
