Wade, she exposed herself as the main spigot for the strategic vitriol against Trump.<\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\">\u201cI mean, the point is \u2013 who would have ever suspected that a creature like Donald Trump would become president of the United States,\u201d spewed the person who, in March, praised Biden for his extraordinary leadership. \u00a0\u201c\u2026 waving a list of judges that he would appoint, therefore getting the support of the far right and \u2013 ah \u2013 appointing those anti \u2013 dis \u2013 freedom judges to the court.\u201d<\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\">Democrats desperately need the hideous version of Trump to keep the party glued together, and to make Trump a political virus for knee-knocking Republicans. \u00a0It\u2019s working.<\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\">Establishment Republicans are so traumatized by the Democrat-created boogeyman of Trump; so embarrassed by Trump\u2019s unorthodox style; so nostalgic for the superficial dignity of the good ol\u2019 days and desperate for approval, that they\u2019ll do anything to distance themselves from him.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\">They waiting to get back to \u201cnormalcy and stability\u201d as opposed to \u201clability and extremism,\u201d as Peggy Noonan put it in her column\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.wsj.com\/articles\/donald-trump-elusive-base-gop-republicans-election-voters-endorsements-primaries-primary-midterm-2022-oz-pennsylvania-cawthorn-north-carolina-11652998530?mod=trending_now_opn_2\">Donald Trump and His Elusive Base<\/a> in the Wall Street Journal, Thursday. \u00a0 She believes a good chunk of Trump\u2019s supporters are quietly distancing themselves from him, too.<\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\">\u201cBut there\u2019s another, larger mood shift going on, and to me it\u2019s the real headline,\u201d wrote Noonan as she assessed \u201ca real sense\u201d of things after last week\u2019s primaries. \u00a0\u201cSomething is changing among Trump supporters. \u2026 They won\u2019t tell pollsters, they may not even tell neighbors, but there was a real sense of: We need Trump\u2019s policies, but we don\u2019t need him. \u2026 as a major backer and donor told me, it\u2019s time to think of the future. \u00a0Mr. Trump brings \u2018chaos\u2019.\u201d<\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\">Karl Rove, who in January\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.bloomberg.com\/news\/articles\/2022-01-06\/karl-rove-blasts-republicans-who-back-trump-s-false-2020-claims\">chided Republicans<\/a> for not coming down harder on the Jan. 6 rioters and those who \u201cencouraged and aided the attempt to overthrow our democracy,\u201d\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.wsj.com\/articles\/polarized-parties-at-the-primary-polls-elections-democrats-republicans-midterms-election-trump-senate-11652906461?mod=article_inline\">wrote<\/a> on Wednesday that last week\u2019s primaries confirmed that angry factions are increasingly defining both parties, and as a result \u201cAmerica\u2019s politics continues to polarize. \u2026 Buckle up.\u201d<\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\">Even columnist Kimberly Strassel, whose work I respect, seems to prefer Glenn Youngkin\u2019s \u201cfocusing on a fix and the future\u201d approach to politics than Trump\u2019s combative style. \u00a0Especially when it comes to looking back at the 2020 election.<\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\">\u201cHe [Youngkin] acknowledged Mr. Biden as the legitimate president while also promising to shore up election integrity,\u201d she wrote in her column\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.wsj.com\/articles\/stop-the-steal-trump-endorsement-midterm-gop-republican-primaries-primary-oz-walker-mastriano-kemp-perdue-11652997799?cx_testId=3&#038;cx_testVariant=cx_4&#038;cx_artPos=4&#038;mod=WTRN#cxrecs_s\">The Limits of \u2018Stop the Steal\u2019<\/a>. \u00a0Mr. Youngkin ran on a forward-looking agenda to address schools, the economy and crime \u2013 and won in a state that has leaned Democratic in recent years. \u00a0That tried-and-true formula remains the path for GOP midterms success.\u201d \u00a0\u00a0<\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\">Bill Barr is reported to have said that the country doesn\u2019t need a lame-duck president settling scores for another four years. \u00a0Two-term Arkansas Gov. Asa Hutchison said at the National Governor\u2019s Association\u2019s winter meeting that \u201cI do not believe Trump is the one to lead our party and our country again, as president.\u201d \u00a0And Jacquie Baly, a political science professor at the University of Houston believes that \u201cthe insurrection\u201d closed the 2024 window for him.<\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\">When you consider what Democrats are doing to fundamentally transform the country, \u201cchaos,\u201d \u201cpolarize,\u201d and \u201ca very harsh tone\u201d is not extreme, but a natural reaction for a man, Trump, who loves the country, and is using every tool in his box to oppose those who are literally weakening and destroying America as we know it. \u00a0<\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\">We support him, not to be part of some idiot cult, but because he sees exactly what we see: They\u2019re demonizing whites and American history through CRT; opening up the border in violation of federal law; normalizing an extreme LGBTQ ideology in all sectors of American life; strategically exposing school children to explicit sexual content; normalizing crime and criminalizing normal behavior; destroying the fossil fuel industry under false pretenses to stuff green policy down America\u2019s throat; destroying the lives of people and businesses with China-inspired COVID lockdowns, mandates, and restrictions; \u00a0looking to institutionalize lockdowns with the impending WHO treaty, transforming election rules, regulations and laws to get and keep power; and abusing technology to restrict speech that\u2019s unfavorable to Democrat government policies. \u00a0<\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\">This stuff is very extreme, and the establishment\u2019s obsession to get back to \u201cnormal\u201d \u2013 to get back to politics as usual \u2013 unfortunately, not only falls short but is misguided and very dangerous for the situation we\u2019re living through. \u00a0\u201cNormal\u201d normalizes the arsonists who are letting the fire burn things to the ground, and these people need to be held accountable. \u00a0If a Youngkin-type, or even a Ron DeSantis runs and wins the presidency in 2024, these people will not stop. \u00a0 \u00a0<\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\">This may not be the Civil War, but this country is, no doubt, at war. \u00a0And establishment Republicans, with their misguided worship of orthodox politics, are completely oblivious to the situation.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\">They are, as journalist Walter Lippmann wrote in the 1940s, politicians who are \u201cinsecure and intimidated men. \u00a0They advance politically only as they placate, appease, bribe, seduce, bamboozle \u2026 The decisive consideration is not whether the proposition is good but whether it is popular \u2013 not whether it will work well and prove itself, but whether the active-talking constituents like it immediately.\u201d<\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\">Through lies, deception and outright fraud, Democrats have made Donald Trump extremely unpopular among the \u201cactive-talking\u201d people. \u00a0Squishy Republicans keep their distance and whisper their objections as the country burns to the ground. \u00a0Until someone else comes along \u2013 given the country\u2019s dire situation \u2013 I will continue to support Trump. \u00a0He\u2019s an axe in America\u2019s tool kit that we set aside for emergencies. \u00a0<\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\">We\u2019re in an emergency.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Political psychopaths who jerry-rigged scraps from Trump\u2019s unorthodox style to create the illusion of the most hideous, racist, misogynist, homophobic, Putin-loving, Hitlerian monster that ever lived, have convinced<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":505,"featured_media":2315279,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_mo_disable_npp":"","fifu_image_url":"","fifu_image_alt":"","footnotes":""},"categories":[],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-1489400","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1489400","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/505"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=1489400"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1489400\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/2315279"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=1489400"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=1489400"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=1489400"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
