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.

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)

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.”

Trump happens to be right....again...Woke has certain meaning in the right wing circles and an entirely different meaning in left win circles.

Black Liberal: The government thinks they can hand me a check and all is forgiven but I’m woke, that won’t fly.

Conservative; I was watching a Netflix show and there was a black character, an Asian and gay character. I’m tired of woke Hollyweird.

Some people see it positively and other negatively so when you attack “woke” you can’t be sure how anyone takes it...it’ll be based on their perspective, culture etc.

Desanctimonius defined it as Cultural Marxism. I’m am very confident that you won’t have a 90% number agreeing with that definition at all.

“Where have we seen this before?”

Well, any time an incumbent President is running... which essentially is the situation with Trump.

I don’t believe Lowry has it right. The word woke was not “taken over by conservatives,” it was becoming used by the left to describe themselves, and as such, being “woke” was considered a virtue. Still is.

Woke literally means you “woke up” to the “fact” that you are an oppressor merely because you are either white, a male or are straight. And because you are an oppressor you have to be more than happy to do whatever the oppressed tell you to do because your ancestors oppressed their ancestors. That includes holding back your children in favor of their children which a good woke person would gladly do.

Yeah it’s complete bullschit, but that what it means

Trump supports woke, just doesn’t want the label.

To bad I clicked on this before I realized it’s from The National Review!

As far as their crap goes I am gone.

BYE, BYE NOW!
