If every single conservative in the country became a cheerleader for Trump, without demanding concessions or conditions, he would have a blank check to do whatever he wants. We’re better off having a segment of vocal hard-liners pushing him to the right.
I agree, we heed to work to ensure that his policies are conservative, but more important, pro-American. Not sure so-called free trade and reckless interventionism that Shapiro and Max Boot and Jonah Goldberg support are very pro-American. And if those are “conservative” positions, maybe I’m not one anymore.
But don’t be fooled: Shapiro, Guy Benson and these other toads have no interest in pushing Trump to the right. They are PERSONALLY threatened by him and think they can be simultaneously anti-Trump and anti-Clinton. Nope.
