I’ve been pimping a Clinton/Kasich 2016 national unity ticket for a couple of weeks. I think that there is a fundamental political realignment going on
Very interesting. How deep the rabbit hole?
All five of them?
Famous bank robber William Francis Sutton, jr. Is credited at least with this famous answer — when a reporter asked him why he robbed banks, he may have replied, “because that’s where the money is.” Today, if it were only possible to get one honest statement out of Hillary, she’d surely give this same reason for her political “career”.
It isn't surprising that to some extent many neocons and so-called moderates are in the early stages of doing exactly that.
But what was unexpected is that many who trumpeted their hard core conservatism are working against Trump in ways that can only help Hillary.
The mask is dropping for many and they are sacrificing their credibility in in the heat of the moment.
I said the same they much rather team up with hilldbeast who will keep thier criminal crumbs obama dropped coming. We now see thier true colors
Thanks but trying to learn about politics from the n y t is like trying to learn about God from the Koran
What great news! I have been hoping for a long time now that we can replace our neo-conservative globalists with the remaining patriotic, hardworking, reasonable, pro-America Democrats. Now the Dems can be the party of unnecessary wars and dissolving national sovereignty, and we can be the party of putting this country and its interests and citizens first and foremost.
This is exactly who is behind the stop Trump initiative in the GOP. Google Neocon and discover that most of their founders were campus radicals and members of SDS back in the 60’s and early 70’s. They are oligarchs and, as such, stand for everything this nation fought its Revolutionary War against. Watch this video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XbEu-OLMKLQ
Why would the neocons be willing to give aid and comfort to the enemy to stop Trump?!?
They give war, a sometimes necessary evil, a bad name.
Just putting the neo in neocons. What did anyone expect from this crew?
No surprise here. A big-government globalist who uses her family foundation and a private e-mail server in her home to sell our nation to foreign interests is exactly what these @ssholes want in the White House.
What is Free Republic doing running an article by this slimy Liberal? This guy wrote in the huffington puffington post saying Bernie Sanders filibusters were great unlike the Republicans. It figures that you Trumpen Conservatives (lumpen Conservatives) would use this guy to push the phony Trump narrative that he is anything of a Conservative along. One needs Liberals to help cement your support for Trump as the incoherent flim flam man loses to Hillary in the general election.
Not that long ago, if you saw a crew siding a house, they were Americans. Not so much now.
Not that long ago, if you saw a crew pouring a new driveway, they were Americans. Not so much now.
Not that long ago, if you saw a crew building a house, they were Americans. Not so much now.
Not that long ago, if you saw a crew doing landscaping, they were Americans. Not so much now.
And on and on. A list, as long as my arm, of jobs formerly held by American citizens, now lost to illegal aliens. We've all noticed. And mostly, people have enjoyed the cheap labor, while too few cared, until Donald came along.
So I get it. Your no/low skilled jobs have been stolen, by people who shouldn't be here. As a software engineer, I face the same employment threat from H1B visas, and outsourcing to India.
So the wall makes sense. So does seriously managing immigration and visas.
And I agree, our free-trade agreements are far too skewed in favor of foreign competition. None of the countries we have trade agreements with have anything remotely approaching the regulatory costs of the EPA and NLRB, so our American businesses go into competition with one hand tied behind their backs.
That said (and stipulated to), the world is full of people living in mud huts who are willing to do unskilled labor for pennies a day. Anyone thinking that Trump can replicate the Hawley-Smoot tariff act but get a different result, please take your medicine.
Then there's the bunch on FR that aid and abet them while telling themselves they're exercising "conservative principles"........cat's-paws every one.
