Yes...so what the point...Nation Review...

publish both at same time..

two article...both with the overall objective (aka the true agenda) to bash Conservatives for not supporting the GOPe party line.... but instead supporting Trump

but one takes states.. Conservatives are in the wrong for being purist... and the other..Conservatives are in the wrong for abandoning Conservatives ideas (..in other words not being purist)

So polar opposite reason to justify the bashing... so the point is not “reason” as all... it to just an excuse for NR GOPe to bash Conservatives /Trump support....

it like being attack for being too tall and also too short at the same time...

.its really party line... just telling the base sit down, shut up...at Do what WE tell you...your not allowed to think.. ....

...Yours is not to reason yours is just to do or die.....(We are the leaders.. and you are a stupid "grunt"...a pawn in our chess game)....

That the reason for Trump rise.. the base..the grunts..the pawns...know the GOPe has used them as fodder for years... it not 100 % Trump.. its that he is Not part of GOPe that has spit on it base for years.......

the base is in mutiny and ready for a cold blood purge of all GOPe leaders.....

The GOPe "Capt Bligh's"..are seeing that day of reckoning by the Bounty crew (the Conservative base)

New tag line

If the GOPe succeed in disenfranchising me through tricks and money during the primary...I’m voting for Hillary. At least I’ll have the satisfaction of watching McConnell having to kiss Her ugly old butt

I hope you forgot your /sarc tag because cutting off your nose to spite your face is just plain loony. :)

From where I stand, it's Rove and the establishment that are the threat here. Spin, spin, spin.

Hillary can’t do worse than McConnell did. Or didn’t you notice that Obama now has the votes for his alliance with Persia, thanks to Mitch?

What sticks in the back of my mind is that long conversation Trump had with Bill Clinton. Any exchange anyone has had with Clinton longer than “Hi” and “Bye” should excite suspicion — he's that bad news.

I'm thinking of the timing of Trump's campaign announcement (right after the conversation) and that old saying about Slick and Beastwoman: “You can say one thing about the Clintons: When they need something from you, they're there for you.”

I hear you. His rolling sideshow has managed to divert the focus away from Hitlery and Obummer and instead we are entering a civil war in the Republican party. I don't think that is as much by design, as it is the fault of the media spin and the belt way backer Vichy-Republicans in the conservative media.
