We believe in American exceptionalism, reads the opening line of the 2016 Republican Party Platform. We believe the United States of America is unlike any other nation on earth.
Yet today, the Republican Party finds itself entertaining some of the same unsettling nativist and authoritarian impulses that characterized Europe throughout the 20th century. These ideals are antithetical to what it means to be a Republican, and what it means to be American.
Defending Democracy Together is a 501c4 advocacy organization created by lifelong conservatives and Republicans many of whom have served in Republican administrations and write for conservative publications. We are dedicated to defending Americas democratic norms, values, and institutions and fighting for consistent conservative principles like rule of law, free trade, and expanding legal immigration.
Through research, education and grassroots activism, Defending Democracy Together is fighting abuses of power that threaten to undermine the integrity of U.S. elections, federal agencies, and the Republican Party as a whole. We aim to elevate voices across the conservative political spectrum who advocate for these principles. We hope Americans on the Left, Right, and Center will join us.

I can't imagine how deep Krisol's Trump hate (or envy) must be start up THREE such organizations.
...oh, and we aren't a democracy...
Where the hell does Kristol keep finding suckers to fund his loser publications and groups?
Remember that goofy dweeb in high school that always got the wedgie every day and was locked into his own wall locker until the vice principal came and rescued him...?
Yeah, thats who billy reminds me of.
I bet that Soros money is behind all of this.
Soros
This is NOT a democracy, thank God and our Founders !
DDT
Poisonous?
What does he see that I dont?
It's got to be exhausting to maintain that level of hate.
Democrats, and fellow Never-Trumpers, where else?
This is old news, and probably a money-laundering operation of some kind. This stupid organization hasnt even posted a new message on its Twitter feed or Facebook page in months.
Billy the Kid Krystal is a terrible disappointment. Im sure even his Dad ( who I sometimes disagreed with quite a bit) is very sad to see just how irrationally his Kid is behaving. Sad
Is the nut concerned with the insane FISA/dossier episodes, the fake investigation of Clinton, the Strozk "insurance policy", the non-investigation of the DNC email server etc? The answer is no. This bizarre statement would be like someone who had been a member of the German Nazi party announcing after WWII ended that he was concerned with anti-semitism.
Kristol like Jonah Goldberg are losers who say they stand for conservative principles, but never say what that is. Its always aloof and esoteric nonsense of the Piggy Noonan, DC Social snobs that wouldnt give the everyday man the time of day because they are too busy enjoying the fragrence of what they think is their own superiority, but in reality nothing but $8 latte farts from Starbucks. They have been exposed and now they are relagated to perminant irrelevance.
that bastard Kristol isn’t just anti-Trump, he’s anti-Republican: that asshole ran vicious ads against Senator Cory Gardner in Colorado right prior to the vote against witnesses, trying to bully and intimidate Gardner into voting against Trump at the impeachment trial ... it didn’t work, and as a result President Trump announced the day after he was acquitted that he will have a rally in Colorado Springs this January 20th!
YEA!
“This is old news, and probably a money-laundering operation of some kind. This stupid organization hasnt even posted a new message on its Twitter feed or Facebook page in months.”
wrong ... Kristol just ran vicious anti-Republican-Senator ads in blue states with GOP Senators up for re-election in 2020, trying to bully and intimidate them into voting for witnesses and to vote to convict Trump ... he ran ads in Colorado against GOP Senator Cory Gardner, and it was one of the most disgusting things i’ve ever seen ... Kristol isn’t just anti-Trump, he’s full out anti-Republican ... a total traitor ...
I get it. He’s not so subtly comparing Trump to Hitler. 2020 America to 1933 Germany, Trump voters to brown-shirts, love of our country to Fascism, and immigration policy to the holocaust.
If it weren’t for that, and perhaps a leetle war or two, he would be happy in the GOP.
Kristol has, unfortunately, become a conservative con-artist, creating front groups, mainly anti-Trump, to keep him financially sound and relevant (which he isn’t anymore).
He’s become the “Rev. Al “Much” Sharpton” of the Right. Even beginning to look like him.
The ind is a terrible thing to waste!!
>> We are dedicated to defending Americas democratic norms, values, and institutions and fighting for consistent conservative principles like rule of law, free trade, and expanding legal immigration. << p> What I get from this is:
*democratic norms = mob ruleIs there something wrong with this? < /sarc >*rule of law = police state
*free trade = cheap goods from foreign slavery
*expanding immigration = bringing foreign slaves in to compete and displace free naturak-born citizen laborers and voters
