In the last 24 hours violent leftist mobs and Open Border thugs smashed police cars, bloodied Trump supporters, mugged Trump supporters, harassed Trump supporters, spit on Trump supporters, and stormed the GOP California Convention.
National Review Washington Editor Eliana Johnson blamed the Trump supporters for this mob violence.
Eliana Johnson: Well, one really important thing, Neil, is not to confuse where the bad behavior is coming from. Mr. Trump and his campaign have behaved badly in encouraging and fomenting violence inside their rallies. And, these protesters are behaving badly fomenting and encouraging bad behavior outside the rallies. The fact that there are protesters that are behaving badly does not dissolve the Trump campaign or Mr. Trump for what he’s done.
WOW!
National Review has officially SWITCHED SIDES!
You’re no longer helping the conservative cause, Eliana.
Your hatred for Trump and his working class supporters has consumed you.
National Review has sealed it’s irrelevance.
For the LAST 100 years——after Ida Tarbell’s time at McClure’s——the news has ALL been controlled by a few super-satanic elites who got a monopoly on all news sources and then started controlling content (Tarbell quit from a later magazine because of the “controlling” of content—that was around the time of Wilson’s Presidency.
......to control our “proper” perceptions of EVERYTHING-—esp. Life (Natural Law) and to distract and focus you on a “dog and pony” show....bread and circuses..
National Review just “pretended” to give us the “Truth”-—but people who give us the “Truth” (with a capital “T”) end up like Andrew Breitbart.
False egalitarian in defending thugs is the kind of moral cowardice that inspires thugs to more violence.
NRO jumped the shark long ago
What a dummy! She even put “dissolve” where she obviously meant “absolve.”
How do folks like this even have a job?
Kent,
Are you going to believe us -- the commentators representing the inside-the-beltway elites -- or are you going to believe your lying eyes? It's important that you understand that when we plant memes, we intend to be believed no matter how false our statements. We make reality. We define truth. Believe or be cast into the outer darkness where your opinions will mark you as deranged.
Sincerely,
The Mainstream Media

Poor Elianna must be off her meds. That or she’s self prescribing. Either way, she’d out of her ever loving mind.
But these are wonderful conservatives./s Club for Growth toadies, especially Paul Singer!

Keep it up NR! Eliana and her ilk will drive more voters to Trump!
If I didn’t share this before, in 1984 I was part of the College Republicans at UCSB. We did a fundraiser by inviting Buckley to speak, and I got to introduce him. He said “LS proves that being a conservative intellectual is not an oxymoron.” (I had to look that up after the show).
He played piano at the house where he did a reception-—great piano player. Had a nice dinner with him, too.
Which shows just how vain, solipsistic and vacuous that which passes for thought at NR has become. You cannot have an intellectual engagement with either Jeb! or lil' Marcoc. There is no idea you can argue with and no being with a neo-cortex to engage the debate. WFB would have known that their ideological sparring partners were wills of the wisp. But not the present crowd.
As quickly and effectively has Trump dispatched both of these lightweights, I imagine WFB would have done it with more panache and made them look like the laughable fools that they are.
In about five words and I mean for the two of them, not each.
Did he play Bach?
It’s similar to how the U.N. and the “international community” blames both the Israelis and the Palestinians for violence caused by Palestinians.
“dissolve”?
“The fact that there are protesters that are behaving badly does not dissolve the Trump campaign or Mr. Trump for what he’s done.”
“Eliana Yael Johnson (born c. 1984) is an American conservative writer who has worked for National Review magazine.

A little song for National Review:
Have you seen the little piggies
Crawling in the dirt?
And for all the little piggies
Life is getting worse
Always having dirt to play around in
Have you seen the bigger piggies
In their starched white shirts?
You will find the bigger piggies
Stirring up the dirt
Always have clean shirts to play around in
In their styes with all their backing
They don’t care what goes on around
In their eyes there’s something lacking
What they need’s a damn good whacking
Everywhere there’s lots of piggies
Living piggy lives
You can see them out for dinner
With their piggy wives
Clutching forks and knives to eat their bacon
Lucky dog. Now I am jealous.
I can’t remember, but probably. It was certainly classical.
