The Trump Movement Isn't About Conservatism -- It's About Americanism

I see that you didn’t bother refuting any of the facts that I presented. I should know better than to expect that from those emotionally charged by Trump’s rhetoric.

But to me it's deeper than that, because many of the people that are complaining in their writing and in their columns and in their blog posts and so forth -- I'm not trying to offend anyone, but all they do is write. They comment, and that's it, as though that's an achievement in and of itself.

Rush gets it around the edges, but it's worse than he thinks. Conservative DC Elites want a President who will sit with them in DC drawing rooms and chat in the style of William F. Buckley, Jr... someone who will make THEM feel good about themselves.

Establishment Conservatives want connection, status, someone to prop up their 'airs'... someone to 'converse' with... not 'talk' with - 'converse' with...

They don't get Trump - they don't understand the county's turning into a hellhole... they don't care about the anguish in flyover, the jobs lost, the vets mistreated... because they're little part of the world - upscale DC - is just fine...
