The first through nth issue is immigration. Everything else is background noise.

Even as words alone, this is a political narrative that France desperately needs

What conservative would listen to that kind of gobbledygook?

Figured this was a NYTimes piece from the title.
And it may as well be.

I went and read the article, and here’s my response.

Conservative purity is irrelevant. The ONLY thing which matters is halting immigration before an irreversible demographic shift happens.

They can either be good muslims or good Americans, can’t be both.
Msd Mo made it so.

American Muslims’ patriotism is proof that Le Pen is wrong

Wow! Someone needs to by a clue!

WFB, Jr. is rolling over in his grave. The National Review has really jumped the shark to a pseudo-intellectual cocktail party Republicanism with some conservative catch-phrases tossed in for ol’ times sake. Whatever you feel about Le Pen’s brand of nationalism, it is essential to the survival of France and the rest of Western Europe that they put a halt to rampant, militant Islamization. All other gestures toward wise economic policies and inspirational political messages are utterly futile in the face of imminent national collapse and subservience to the retrograde 7th century culture of Islam.

And if they support our Constitution, they are considered apostates to Islam.

You are right. Muslims hate us and they want to kill us.

This excerpt is unintelligible.

The author makes no sense.

The "conservative purity" of National Review Online types is just a dishonest pose and convenient ploy ploy. They use "big government" and "statism" as rhetorical tricks to attack Trump or LePen, while having absolutely not problem with the big government statism of the Bushes or other establishment Republicans. Ideological purity about small government only matters if the "statist" in question opposes multiculturalism and globalism.
