Some Prominent "NeverTrumpers" Take Sharp Left Turn and Become NeverGOPers

Bret Stephens, Jen Rubin, and Bill Kristol have never been real conservatives, but have felt the need to pretend (slightly) so they could occupy positions of influence in a movement they were never actually a part of.

Now they're liberated to show their true liberal stripes.






Those are just some tweets illustrating this, but June Kelly's piece about the Dropping of the Masks is worth reading.

No, that's not it precisely. I, too, was completely opposed to Trump. However, unlike them, I'm willing to admit that I was wrong, not because he didn't act the buffoon while campaigning, because he did, but because his actual performance as President is far better than I'd dared to hope.

Also, I actually believe the things I say. I'm not just saying the for a paycheck.

52 The delicious irony here is that Trump supporters did so due to principles - the things Trump espoused during his campaign... despite the 'Party's' preferred insider choices. We followed Trump because he stood for principles we cared about, that the Party had ignored.

so - fuck these clowns.

Trump Derangement Syndrome is a thing, and it infects Dems and Reps alike.

DJT has done a hostile takeover of the Republican Party, and they still can't believe it. Which means one of two things, either the Republican Party was being run honestly and fairly and the candidate with the most votes won, OR the Republican Party was being run by morons and he walked in and put his name on the door and nobody could stop him.

because its been uniparty for decades.

Trump isn't in uniparty. He's doing what he logically thinks is the right thing. Logic tends toward the conservative. Ergo a fairly conservative president. As long as he doesn't listen to the non logical people who are advising him (and you know who they are) he'll do a great job. Transformational in fact. He can't help but be transformation given the absolute trainwreck that Washington is now. The question is will it be enough.

I'm hopeful that the ongoing destruction of the left's communications/public relations arm will leave a permanent mark on the minds of the young. Especially young women. They need to wake the F up.

The painted themselves into a corner with the whole NRO "contra Trump"
gambit, and now for the sake of ego they can't back down

There are a few exceptions. Greg Gutfeld was very anti-Trump but has really come around, admitted he was largely wrong, still hits Trump where he feels Trump deserves it (Gutfeld's no fan of the tax plan) which is fair.

And Katie Pavlich, one of the actual NRO anti-Trump issue squad members has also largely mea culpa'd.

Gorsuch and other judicial nominations seem to have brought the sane ones back into the fold.

131 There's an article from months ago called "Killing the Gods of the City" that I linked a few times when people were freaking out. It's bottom line - it is gonna be really messy & crazy.

People do not relinquish power easily.

But there are so many moving parts right now, some that have affected politics that people did not see coming, and they were blind-sided by it. Like the avalanche of sexual assualts cases committed by mostly democratic men in elite positions.

That was done by the people for the people. Decades of cover ups exposed by Ronan Farrow was the beginning. Networks and other dems all over the place knew about this stuff and did nothing.

Anyway, that has done more to injure them than anything politics could throw...b/c it wasn't political. And that is why it is so harmful.

But there are so many moving parts right now in the country, and now we can add another based on the tweets. And there are more that we have no idea about.

Before I forget, thank you to those who pray about this country. There are supernatural forces at work I do not understand, but believe in. And when something goes well, or evil is exposed, they do not get enough credit for their role.

138 On the Roy Moore saga, I just read that Breitbart piece on the Leigh Corfman accusation. She is the one who claims she and her mother met Moore at the courthouse in 1979 when she was 14, and he subsequently asked her out and felt her up.

The Breitbart reporter went through the court records and reported that the custody hearing was on Feb. 21, and that Corfman was supposed to move out of her mother's house and into her father's house in something like 10 days, which the reporter pointed out didn't give Moore much time for the phone calls and the two dates and whatnot that Corfman says Moore did.

But what's curious about that story is that court documents show that the parents had agreed to the custody switch, apparently because Leigh Corfman had been a behavioral problem at the mother's house and the parents thought she'd settle down if she went to live with the father. The article said both parents signed the consent decree switching custody over to the father.

Given that both parents wanted the custody switch and it was being done by consent of both parents, there couldn't have been much to the custody hearing. So why then did Corfman's mother agree to let Roy Moore babysit her daughter in the courthouse hallway? Corfman said that her mother didn't want her to come into the hearing room with her because she didn't want her daughter to hear the acrimonious testimony -- but there is unlikely to have been any testimony that would have upset Corfman, given that both parents wanted the custody switch to happen and the hearing was probably just a pro forma rubber-stamping of the agreement.

So that part of Corfman's story really doesn't make sense. Also, Corfman claims that the Roy Moore fondling incident was the start of all her behavioral problems. But that is clearly not true, as the custody documents indicate that she was already having behavioral problems before she even met Moore at the custody hearing, which is why the parents were switching custody in the first place. So why is Corfman lying about that?

188 so i guess they are still angry at us that we denied their perceptions of themselves that they knew all , the rainmakers, and knew what's Best for Us.

instead of being gently guided

we denied them!
now they slap us around while yelling ,' it's you bastards and low lives you didn't Listen to what we told you!'

i'm glad i've separated from them before they agree to get meaner.

189 Speaking of pie, America in my living history was divided into 2 large pieces (Repubs/Dems) and one smaller one (Independents, 3rd parties).

Now the pie is sliced into a dozen slices or more.

That's how I'm looking at it today.

The pie? You are free to choose the type...b/c 'Merica baby!

Drilling is back on the upswing in the Eagle Ford, although nothing like the ga-ga days. We saw one of those frack thingies (I think that's what they have to with) on the highway last week and it's been awhile since we've seen that.

There are several deep sea rigs cold stacked near my destroyed beach condo. I don't see them going back out anytime soon.

That we asked borders be kept and immigrants be vetted ? That we like immigration but not one world citizenship for all? That we think America is special and sovereign as Other countries choose to be?

This is Duvernay, a Devonian shale. Around here, the depth is given as 2000 to 2500 meters, so 6400 to 7200 feet. Which is a deep play around here. I guess the big question is how much of the "oil" content is liquid, and how much is kerogn, which is an immobile solid hydrocarbon?
