Then most are useful idiots playing by the left’s rules and their twisted ideals surrounding nationalism and globalism and a future in which meaning is obscured as PC has all the answers no arguments required. I think there is more to it especially among the professional political class of which Erickson and NeverTrumpers are a part.
My political perspective on them is that they were a useful foil in many encounters. I do not honestly believe that in any encounter with same before a live audience, that I did not leave with more support than I entered. I know how to take the breed down--so I want to stick to fighting the "devil I know" best. (I have also infiltrated at least one Communist Front leadership meeting, so I am not without at least a little experience in dealing with the conspiratorial type of Leftist.)
