There is a blue on blue campaign being waged against any Republican/conservative who doesn’t supplicate themselves before the Trump altar.
100% fealty or risk being cancelled. Where have we seen this before?

‘Woke’ has become the right’s ‘racist’.

It’s all about how Trump has decided to attack DeSantis from the left, using leftist talking points.

Poor Trump.
Anytime DeSantis scores a major victory against Disney, abortion, wokeism, Bud Light, etc. Trump hast to come out in favor of such things just so he can be in opposition to DeSantis’s policies.

Woke was being used by the self-described “woke” to signal certain deranged “virtues” and demonize non-radicalized Americans they believed didn’t and couldn’t share their values.

No one trusts Rich Lowry. He’s been against Trump since 2015, except when he put out a book on nationalism during the Trump Presidency to make money.

How so? The neo marxism behind woke intersectionality (oppressor vs oppressed) is a real thing.

What do you know? Trump is more “thoughtful” than thoughtful republicans such as Rich Lowry. Who would of “thunk” it?

Trump isn’t a leftist, he’s a Trumpist. He will say and do anything that he thinks will get him a political advantage. Thanks to Trump we all still suffer from the ethanol in our gasoline.

You can take whatever the National Review says about Trump to the bank.

I don’t mind the term but it’s a bit too over used , I’d rather people say HOW something is “woke” like if it’s anti-White or Anti-Christian (for example)

To: thegagline
Trump has a point here. Someone recently asked me what I thought of “woke policies in corporate America.” I asked him to explain what the hell the term “woke” even means, and he just proceeded to give specific examples that pissed him off. He sounded like an idiot — like he’s a 70 year old man trying to use his grandson’s slang and jargon. And so does any political figure who uses it on TV — especially when “woke” is used as an adjective or noun.
I hate using stupid slang terms in conversations like that. It’s better to come up with a more appropriate, effective term to use — like “promoting perversion” or “environmental stupidity.”

I agree. The term “woke” helps conceal the true intentions of these people.
