Ben Shapiro is a smart guy who makes some good points. But he also has a tendency to make sweeping generalizations about Trump supporters. I supported Trump but no, I don’t support David Duke. I don’t even support everything Trump wants. He wasn’t my first choice. But I’m pleasantly surprised with what he has been doing since he was elected and I generally support him. If he does something that I don’t agree with, I won’t support it. Just like I didn’t support Bush’s spending binge even thought I supported other things he did. No one is a robot who automatically supports everything and everyone associated with Trump. So all Shapiro is doing with this essay is filling space with a straw man argument.

Most of the Trump supporters I know are mature, thoughtful people like you. However, there are indeed a few who follow Trump with religious fervor. Sadly, I can't agree with the straw man assertion.

He's made a very good point, but paints with too broad a brush.

No Ben is not. he is paid gun just like most of the “Conservative” media. he has no principals or political honor merely does what he is paid to do.
He not anyone to be respected at all. His willingness to actively attempt to elect Hillary disqualifies him from pretending to be anything but a paid media whore.
As “Real Conservatives” know actions have consequences. Ben picked his side, he can now go live with it and quit wasting our time with his fraudulent posturing

I immediately thought he was alluding to Milo.
