He was supposed to lose the primary, but he didnt. He was supposed to lose the general, but he didnt. He was supposed to fall victim to the covert schemes of leftist bureaucrats and the overt obstruction of The Resistance, but he didnt. Instead, Donald Trump has prospered as the most conservative president since Ronald Reagan. And its breaking the souls of his enemies.
The elite keeps losing to the guy they tell us is dumb. The elite keeps losing to the guy they tell us is a clown. The elite keeps losing to the guy who doesnt meet their bottom line standard to be worthy of governing being one of the elite. So, whats that make the elite?
He just refuses to lose. He just refuses to submit. He just refuses to give a damn about what they say or what they think. And that infuriates them. He wont take a knee, but he will offer them a finger.
Brick by brick, he is disassembling the rickety edifice of Barack Obamas transformed America. Regulations? Slashed, even as the screams of the professional expert class echo across the District of Columbia. ISIS? Dead, with our military unleashed to hunt down our enemies without hesitation or mercy. The Courts? Packed, not with squishy wimps ready to bend to the will of the WaPo and the Georgetown cocktail crew but with true conservatives determined to fight for the Constitution.
Slowly, its dawning on Trumps enemies on our enemies that this isnt just an unfortunate, temporary bump in the road to the Californiaization of America, but a U-turn.
Trump's allegedly conservative Never Trump opponents never were serious about being conservative. Its easy to grift the donors with big talk about culture wars and policy initiatives when you never expect to be in a position to actually pull them off. But the Normals finally got sick of election year bomb-throwers morphing into pliable puffboys once their reps crossed into the Beltway. And thats how you got Trump.
Suddenly, the fake hardcore facade of Conservative, Inc., was revealed for what it was a pose, an act, tiresome political voguing.
When someone finally showed up who actually wanted to act on all the things the pro-cons had been talking and writing about for decades, well, that didnt leave a lot of room for those who only wanted to talk and write and luxuriate in being insiders.
Never Trumpism spends a lot of time whining about how Trump is vulgar and unfit, but what these guys really resent is that he has embarrassed them. He showed them up. He did what they had been yakking endlessly about doing, and they hate him for it. They much prefer the quiet dignity of losing under a Bush or a Romney to obscurity under a Trump.
Thats why they hate Trump. He just showed the world that they were irrelevant. And thats unforgiveable.
Trumps kickin it old school in his enemies heads, chillin in their cerebral crib. His foes defined themselves by not being him. The Democrats tax policy? Not Trump. Their regulatory policy? Not Trump. Their foreign policy? Not Trump. And its the same with the allegedly conservative Never Trumpers. How do you get an alleged conservative to oppose moving our embassy to Israels capital? Get Trump to finally do it.
They are all about Trump, 24/7. CNN, and its silly Don Lemons and Tater Stelters, need Trump. They have nothing but Trump to fill their empty lives, getting giddy every time some media outlet reports that someone who knows somebody who heard somebody say that maybe Mueller is investigating someone who met Trump once for felony jaywalking.
Trump owns his foes. They are mere satellites orbiting around him, and his gravity is all that keeps them from spinning off into space. They have willingly submitted to the reality of a Trumpocentric political universe.
Their impeachment fever dreams are fading, so they look at popularity polls and take solace at the numbers. They took solace in them on November 8, 2016, too. Its a bit over 10 months to the midterms, and there is a growing, gnawing fear in their guts not that tax reform will be a disaster but that it will succeed. They look at their swelling 401(k)s and mourn their prosperity.
And Trump rolls on, not seeking their approval, not conforming to their demands, ignoring them when he isnt mocking them on Twitter. He refuses to acknowledge their superiority, their right to rule over us Normals.
Trump represents Normal Americans, the ones the elite on both the right and the left look down upon with contempt and fear. They dont really hate Donald Trump. They hate who he represents. They hate us. And they hate that they cant do a damn thing about it.
Must be talking’ bout republican heads
Ouch, that wordsmithing will leave a mark.

That is, as long as the liberal nutjobs don’t write it.
LLOL all that empty real estate!”
All you have to remember is the clips on TV with all those “Snowflakes” screaming, what is left of their brains, out and being absolute fools.
