It’s Not Just ‘Tone’ and ‘Style’ [NeverTrumper Romney Sycophant]
National Review ^ | January 2, 2017 | David French

Posted on 01/03/2018 7:16:25 AM PST by C19fan

Is it time for conservative skeptics and opponents of Trump to stop worrying and embrace the president? Hasn’t the last year proven that our worst fears were unfounded? And, really, aren’t our remaining concerns merely trivial and possibly even elitist differences of taste and manners? Those are the questions conservative Trump skeptics face nearly every day. They’re the foundation of an argument that calls us back to our “team,” to the partisan battlefield that seems to define our time.

The NeverTrump Review only cares about preventing US from reversing the demographic changes that the 30 year bipartisan policy of non-enforcement of laws and borders has made to the country.

This dude is the single most pathetic Never Trumper out there. Deep State, no doubt, with momentary visions of glory as a prospective Never Trump alternative during the campaign—and a complete loser.

Disagree with what French says all you want, but the man is a decorated war hero and deserves respect as an individual.

It takes some serious distortion to view Mittens as a conservative stalwart . . .

I would agree, it is not about tone or style. It is about being a man rather then a wimp. About loving your country rather then being ashamed of it.

The DF's of this world remind of that guy back in WWI when presented with a captured dispatch case returned it to the Enemy UNOPENED and admonished the subordinate "Gentlemen do not read other people's mail."

A fine sentiment in peace time in your club. A fatally stupid one when dealing with people who are trying to kill you.

It still has not sunk into DF's little bone head that THEY ARE TRYING TO KILL US. It is not a friendly game of cards.

Or, worse yet, he does realize it. And is perfectly happy to have us be wiped out as long as he can keep his "pampered pet" status.

No. Seriously. WE DON’T WANT YOU BACK!

Not ever. We want the NeverTrumpers to go sleep with the other elite Progressives. We want the working class Democrats to join us in a coalition to return America to the Americans. We want the socially conservative black couple who struggle to raise good children in a culture of crime and drugs. We want the Hispanic people who waited in line to immigrate to the USA legally.

Not when he will stoop to this kind of sophistry to keep from admitting the legitimacy of Trump's support or success. (Benedict Arnold... etc....etc.)

A JAG officer. A great tragedy of our time is how we have cheapened the use of the word “hero”.

Nope, sorry. Just because someone was “decorated” in the military doesn’t give anyone a lifetime pass.

He is a foul low-life who should be called out as such.

Sorry, Frenchie, but the time to make this decision was back when Trump won the primary. You already made your decision then, deciding that you preferred Hillary to the Republican nominee. You now play for the other “team”, whether you want to admit it or not.

I am one of FR’s NeverRomneys. I would rather lose than back an absolutely fraud like Romney. So I know how he feels.

Petulant gibberish in which David French reveals himself to be a master of self deception. Dumb shyster totally lacking in substance— except that he’s intimidated by Trump and can’t admit it.
