Krauthammer: As of Now, ‘I Don’t Think I’d Be Capable of Voting for Donald Trump’ [tr]

Columnist Charles Krauthammer argued that the GOP is “being led by a non-conservative populist” and that from what he’s seen so far, “I don’t think I’d be capable of voting for Donald Trump” on Tuesday’s “O’Reilly Factor” on the Fox News Channel.

[JLS]

To me the case for voting for Trump is:

1. The Trump supporters need him to be elected and be completely disappointed to learn what fools they have been.

2. The culture and media in the US today are set up to stop a demagogue from the GOP but not a Dim demagogue.

To me the case for voting against Trump is:

1. The Trump supporters particularly MOST of the Trump supporters here have been such jerks, that I am not inclined to reward that behavior.

2. I certainly do not want to vote for much of what Trump wants to do.

It is a close call in my mind and right now I am leaning towards not voting.

Why does he think he’s a conservative?

He was a full blown leftist till 40s

Campaigned AGAINST Reagan in a huge way twice

Discovered his inner Jewishness and became Israel hawk and reinvented himself as a conservative

Sound familiar?

He’s touted as this conservative thinker but like atheist George Will he’s really an 70s moderate democrat

The sort anyone over 50 here remembers

Krauthammer is not an evil man and has personally prevailed over harsh twists of fate but he’s really a classic neoconservative former moderate lefty like most are Jewish or Gentile

Social and cultural lib

Fiscal conservative

Nation builder

Israel hawk but that’s hardly distinguishing in America where every member of congress I can think of besides Ellison is a hawk on Israel by world standards

Krauthammer could easily vote for Clinton

HE THINKS FAR LESS IS AT STAKE THAN WE DO

It is surprising how many have been outed.

Looks like Trump has lost the FOXNews panel talking head vote. It’s the beginning of the end for Trump

Notice how Charles Krauthammer is very vague in this article and dialog about exactly what he has against Trump, just the same vague, and largely hyped, reference to demeanor and temperament, so “for right now” he can’t vote for Trump and will rather have Hillary.

But there is a specific reason. He just won’t say it, at this juncture. Early on, before Trump was even running, Krauthammer saw the tone of the Republican base, and a number of “non-establishment” possible contenders for a pending Presidebtial nomination. He didn’t like it. Specifically, what did he not like?

Even before this nomination process, we saw the Republican base, and even including Democrats, complain and expose the entire “born in the United States, you are an American citizen” so-called “constitutiunal mandate”. So says the 14th Amendment, said the GOPe and the entire open borders crowd who cheer on anchor babies as a means to totally transform the demographics of America with an entirely different population of non-white, and more importantly corrupt or easily corruptable cultures that are the classic illiterate, selfish, easily racially manipulative illiterate underclass, overwhelming the current population in America with hordes of foreigners who are not immigrants but colonizers from the worst of the third world who will not assimilate but simply loot and in the end turn America into them, each invader havuny six kids, and all they need to do is pop out one kid within the borders of the US and bingo, all relatives get in and grandma too who gets all the social services of which they have never paid one penny in taxes to contribute to the costs while the kids of these colonists yell “fu” to our faces and wave foreign flags, bring in drugs, attack our police, harass our kids, all with an attitude, and now illegal aliens, foreigners are here literally interfering in our free election process, literally foreigners standing here on our own soil and blocking us, threatening us, demanding we do not even have the right to hear our candidates speak or even be allowed to participate in our own free election process. Think about it. In any other country, foreigners coming into another cotntry, standing on another’s soil, and then threatening and interferring in the free elections of another nation, that would be considered an act of war.

So people have had enough of this. No more. They now are asking for esoteric new jurisprudence, abolitions and the correct interpretation of the 14th which was about slaves, not illegal aliens and their spawn, Americans say “enough” and if it requires amending the Constitution, so be it if we have to go there. Whatever it takes, this outrage has to stop.

And that’s what Krauthammer doesn’t like. These demands by Americans are, to him, bombastic, and any candidate who advocates any application of such common sense does not have the “demeanor” for any office, much less for President, and the base is crazed nativists.

Then came Trump, he was the brave voice that brought the entire question of amnesty, illegal aliens, “birthright citizenship” et all, front and center to this Presidential campaign. If not fur him, no question about it, it would have only heen a campaign about something else - but not that. No.

So then Trump said build the wall. By then, the ceaseless attacks on Trump had already begun. Krauthammer saying it would take 20 years and $500 billion to build a wall, for all the police, judges, lawyers and enforcement agents, and throw in “bus drivers” to try and make it sound good and to try to make anyone advocating stopping this invasion, to even expell one pregnant mother from Mexico whp shouldn’t even be here and never mind the multi-trillions of dollars it costs us to let them all in and colonize us.

Don’t mention those costs, the costs to let these hordes invade our country, right Krauthammer?

But the support for Trump only increased. And increases every single day.

This is Krauthammer’s problem with Trump. But he sees the popularity of Trump only rises as they attack him more, specifically because Trump is voicing the will of the people who have had enough of this invasion. And since it really is all about the will of the people, that Trump’s popularity only reflects the voice and the will of the people, so now this is cast as the dangerous, barbarian, face of “populism”... viz, yes, it is popular - because it is only the will and voice of thr people who have had enough. No more illegal aliens. Stop it. Enough. No more. The boat is full. Stop waving Mexican flags. Stop yelling “fu” at us, stop this invasion, and start packing your bags and get the hell out of here you illiterate dupes of fascism, and don’t you dare interfere in our free elections you backward little turds.

That is what Krauthammer has a problem with. What I just said. But he won’t say that, now. Instead it is “demeanor”, “bombastic”, “tone”, all this nonsense that really means we are not to be allowed to speak.

He said, “This would all be merely ridiculous if it weren’t morally obscene. Forcibly evict 11 million people from their homes? It can’t happen. It shouldn’t happen. And, of course, it won’t ever happen.”

Understand? That is what he has a problem with. Nothing will be done, if he has his way. Never. It will continue, and then America will be a foreign occupied country. Gone.

This is literally the last stand. If this is not stopped now, in the next four years, it never will be. All of Europe is being occupjed. Now also America. With friends like Krauthammer, the entire modern civilization is lost. Doesn’t matter your opinion about gays, abortion, nothing else. This ends your opinion about anything, all things, it is all about demographics now. You lose this battle, your opinion is worth about as much as dog crap in a doggie bag.

Understand?

“He voted for Obama in 08”..........

Tells me all I need, what more does anyone need?

[Jane Austen]

I had wondered about him previously. Trump did a great favor to us by exposing fake Republicans and fake conservatives. How exactly is corrupt Hillary, who has revealed herself also as a far leftist, better than Trump?

[upcountryhorseman]

I’m voting for Ted Cruz on the nomination ballot and I’m writing in Ted Cruz on the final ballot: He is the only true
conservative running. Our country is lost, may God help us!

[Gargantua]

Charles who?

[Lexington Green]

Well, Bye

[CodeToad]

He’d rather have Hillary? What a drama queen moron.

One of the reasons Nelson is considered a great admiral is because of his tactical plan @ Trafalgar. Rather than resort to the traditional parallel attack - akin to the false red/blue divide of the uni-party - he sailed right into the line, dividing the enemy forces.

For decades, the RNC/DNC has had this comfortable agreement to "contest" elections along prescribed lines, leaving each side with 45% or so of the electorate. 2016 was supposed to the same, but Trump pulled a Nelson: he's gone right up the middle, carving out massive parts of the remainder.

So now we have a minority in the RNC with no place to go - big, crony businesses in favor of open borders. After Trump grabs a big portion of the DNC middle, they too will be left with a fringe (ie the Bernie supporters).

So the challenge for any DC insiders is to somehow create a new party of these two disparate pieces, otherwise the (former) DNC/RNC will be left with 10-20% on either side, while the new GOP - re-fashioned as a nationalist/populist party by Trump - will command the middle 60%.

There are monuments & squares named after Nelson & Trafalgar, and it remains a key turning point in European/UK history. The rift Trump is creating is destroying decades of presumed national direction.

[WillVoteForFood]

Krauthammer and George Will, along with many others, will end up in the Trump camp, I suspect before the end of the summer.

[Gaffer]

Thanks.

BTW the Dutch Admiral De Ruyter used the frontal line attack against the Brtitish nearly a century before Nelson.

[pepsi_junkie]

We'll see. A lot of people say Trump's unlikeables are high so he can't win. They seemingly forget that his opponent is Hillary Clinton who nobody really likes and nobody is passionate about. She's barely beating an old disheveled socialist who has never had an actual job, and even then it's mostly because it's rigged in her favor. Trump is winning with lots of enthusiasm from non-tradional support base for a GOP hopeful so in the end I think all the old rules go out the window.

In other words, nobody knows what's going to happen in this election. Nobody.

[1Old Pro]

He can join George Will and pontificate about how bad Hillary would be and then do nothing about it.

[central_va]

Go back to covering sports.

[Godebert]

Krauthammer: King of the neocon country club elitist media pukes. I bet the scumbag voted for Obama in ‘08 and ‘12. They worship this clown over at FOX News. I think Bret Baeir has a man-crush on Krauthammer. Disgusting.

[SaraJohnson]

Oh noes, now what? We made Charles mad.
