The Real Reason Washington Post Republicans Hate Donald Trump
2017-05-11
[American Thinker] When George Will and other leading intellectuals started to rip holes in their warm comfort couches in despair at Donald Trump's long series of victories, culminating in his election to the presidency, a lot of us were scratching our heads. What was it about winning that drove George Will, Jonah Goldberg, and Bill Kristol to despair?

It made no sense.
I blame new money.
Their Conservative Cringe makes even less sense today, when Trump is carrying out a series of actions that we have long clamored for.

#6  To bring the old saw up to date:

The Washington Post is written by people who believe they run the country for people who believe they run the country.

The New York Times is written by people who believe they should run the country for people who believe they should run the country.

The Wall Street Journal is Buzzfeed without bikini pictures and cat videos.

#5  Does anyone read George Will or listen to him on Sunday mornings other than some in the UniParty in Washington? He is no more a conservative than Jonah Goldberg and Bill Kristol. Will puts me in mind of Cokie Roberts. He is a word merchant who peddles a phony kind of intellectual schtick passed off as cleverness. Will ought to stick to writing about baseball.

#3  Spot on.

POTUS' most effective tool in dealing with the Washington effete is by showing that he does not give a damn.

Should POTUS begin to care about how Will, etal, measure him, he's through.

#2  He's not a 'White's Man', he's really not one of us.

White’s
White’s is one of the oldest and most exclusive clubs in London, established in 1693. This members-only haven of serenity is situated in a grand Portland stone Grade I-listed building on St. James’ Street, secreted away in Piccadilly. The club remains of the male-only persuasion. A plethora of royals are presently members including heir to the throne, Prince Charles. Complete with gaming rooms, a majestic bar, and a menu replete with British game, White’s is an enclave of tradition nestled in the bosom of modern London.

White’s, 37 St James’s Street, SW1A 1JG, London, UK, +44 20 7493 6671
