Tom "Salami Nipples" Nichols Admits: When We Said We Were NeverTrump, What We All Really Meant Was That We Were NeverRepublican, and Were Crazed Democrat Hyperpartisans

Yeah, we know, Tom. But you've denied that until now.


I tried to include Salami Nipple McGee's sad puffies in the pic
but I got an I/O overflow error

And he's only admitting this now because he's attempting to score points on another weak c*ck, Dan McLaughlin, for not being NeverTrump enough.

He's attacking McLaughlin for supporting Republican challengers to Trump. This is insufficient, Scrapple Rack wheezes, his jiggling neck-fat shimmering in the light of Clarissa Explains It All! marathon playing on his blinged-out 65-inch TV.

You cannot just throw Trump overboard and say "all done," the bulbously obese Twitter Obsessive clucks, the words choking apnea-ically in the back of his Pizza-Hut-lubricated throat. To be a true NeverTrumper, you must vow to oppose all Republicans and conservatives in all races, from dog catcher to DA, and frantically support every hard leftwing Soros-funded Democrat out there.

That is the only way to be a True Republican and True Conservative, as all NeverTrumpers have been telling you they are for six fucking years now.

No, this is really what Bologna Areolae is saying now.

And he was only prompted to write his "column" (LOL) in the Atlantic (LOL) because he, get very much this, got into a Twitter fight with someone.

This "intellectual" and "scholar" is only moved to write something not on Twitter when he's been so humiliated on Twitter that he wants to recapitulate the Twitter fight to leftwing audience so they can say, "You really showed them what's what, Capicola Udders!"

A little on this sad, fat affair from John Sexton.

Tom Nichols has a piece at the Atlantic today explaining why Never Trump didn't really mean he'd never vote for Trump, it actually meant he'd never vote for Trumpism and that now includes all of the Republican Party.


In one of the most appalling appropriations of a political banner in years--or at least since Trump decided in 2012, after years of changing party registrations, finally to settle on calling himself a Republican--some of the conservatives hoping to salvage the GOP's fortune after the 2022 midterms are trying to seize and redefine the term Never Trump to mean a rejection of "only Trump, and no other Republicans who are like him." This is important not as some internecine fight among the right but because it is a preview of how many Republicans (and especially those coalescing around Florida Governor Ron DeSantis) intend to rehabilitate the GOP brand in 2024.

The strategy will be to make Trump the sin-eater for the entire party, designating him as the GOP's sole problem, and then rejecting him--and only him. The goal will be to scrub away the stain of having accommodated Trump while pretending that the Republican Party is no longer an extension of his warped and antidemocratic views. This will require an extraordinary suspension of disbelief and an expenditure of gigawatts of political energy on the pretense that the past seven years or so didn't happen--or didn't happen the way we remember them, or happened but don't matter because Trump, having escaped Elba to contest the primaries, will finally be sent to St. Helena after his inevitable defeat.

This will be the new Republican line, and it is nonsense.

As one of the original Never Trumpers--an appellation adopted by disaffected Republicans and conservatives who swore never to support Trump--I think I have a pretty firm handle on what the term means.

I don't know though. Does he have a firm grasp on what it means? Does he really remember what it used to mean? Let's jump back to the July 2016 article he wrote for the NY Times (linked above) and see what it actually says.


My brother heard I'd been saying bad things about Donald Trump.

...


I am a Never-Trump Republican, as we've come to be known, part of the alliance of conservatives implacably opposed to the idea of Donald J. Trump becoming president of the United States....

I formally came out as a Never Trump Republican in February, when I wrote a column for the conservative online publication The Federalist titled "I'll Take Hillary Clinton Over Donald Trump." I made the case that Republicans could tough out four years of Clinton, but that neither the party nor the American conservative movement could survive even a single year of Trump.

Prosciutto Jugs, you've formally come out as a NeverTrump Republican, and then as an ex-Republican, approximately sixty-three thousand times in six years. You literally have only one Area of Expertise, and that area of expertise is What Party Is Kielbasa Udders Supporting Now?

Spoiler: It's the same party he's supported for the last seventeen years.

Pastrami Tits finishes:


The Republicans know they have a problem. Many of them seem to believe their only recourse now is to say that they were all Never Trumpers in the hope that voters will somehow draw an unwarranted distinction between Trump and the party he has captured from top to bottom. But those of us who said "Never Trump" years ago--and meant it--know the difference.

Based on his past usage of the term -- combined with his previous insistence that was a True Republican and Better Republican Than You (TM) -- it sure does seem that ol' fat Knockwurst Knockers is lying for Internet Clout, as usual.

Nichols looks like he's trying to smuggle two garbage bags full of ham in the seat of his pants.

I suppose you're right, if by the ones making the "sacrifice" they meant the conductors of the experiment, but I think the context clearly shows that's not what the texter meant. Anyway, it's just a bit of very clumsy virtue signaling.

Teaches or did at Navy War College as his claim to be a military expert. That is why, of course, he expounds at length publicly on something he doesn't have any claim to be an expert on. Sort of like a low rent Krugman.

My guess is that his brain turned to mush so he claims public service and scholarship by his ridiculous twitter posts and gimme Anti Trump articles in favorable venues.

Our service academies and our military continuing ed have went to crap in part because they hire civilian slugs like Nichols to teach now. That is a relatively recent 'advance' dating back a couple of decades. So of course you get Marxist West Point grads and the like.

The former head of trust and safety at Twitter recently admitted that the social media company’s decision to censor the Hunter Biden laptop story in 2020 was a "mistake." During a sit down with journalist Kara Swisher, ex-Twitter safety chief Yoel Roth said that despite concerns about the authenticity of the laptop story, it still did not reach a point where he wanted to remove the content — which was later censored anyway. Initial reporting suggested that Roth blocked user access from the October 2020 story, but the former Twitter division lead said the decision was not up to him.

I've tried a few times in my personal life to get leftists to articulate exactly what positions Republicans or Conservatives take now that they didn't take in the past. They don't want to do this. They want to point to individual statements or initiatives they don't like and call them "extreme."

BOOK BANNING IS EXTREME! ANTI-ABORTION IS EXTREME!

Both of those positions are REACTIVE to leftist initiatives. Almost nobody ten years ago was trying to put sexually explicit gay propaganda into middle school libraries. The right is REACTING to extreme leftism and painted as extreme. Same with abortion. Lizzy Warren and others want ZERO restrictions on abortion.

173 WTF is "Trumpism" supposed to be?

Trump was the only true outsider in modern history to come in and take a major party nomination, and actually be elected president.

He did this primarily because he made central, burning issues the focus of his campaign, and then - showing political integrity not seen in generations - the actual focus of his efforts in office. Issues that had been ignored, or artlessly and endlessly and dishonestly exploited by the GOP, for decades.

Talk policy, talk facts and history, talk substance, or go watch sports and entertainment shows and mindlessly debate personality issues about stupid athletes and events of no importance.

As the Americans learned so painfully in Earth's final century, free flow of information is the only safeguard against tyranny. The once-chained people whose leaders at last lose their grip on information flow will soon burst with freedom and vitality, but the free nation gradually constructing its grip on public discourse has begun its rapid slide into despotism. Beware of he who would deny you access to information, for in his heart he dreams himself your master. --Pravin Lal

310 There is a guy who has written quite a bit (which I've only read little excerpts from) on Americans Christians making conservatism their religion in lieu of Christianity
-
In my experience, most complaints about American Christians embracing conservatism comes from progressives who pass themselves off as Christian (but cannot be, since they don't acknowledge sin as God defines it), particularly ministers, who want to convince American Christians they should either stay on the sidelines, or if they're particularly dumb, jump on board with progressive causes.

That being said, there are really only three possibilities for American values:
1) The DoI and revolution were wrong, in which case Christians shouldn't support America (as it worships a false god) in any way.
2) The DoI is correct in God's sight, and we should be involved and opposed to the obvious evils of progressivism (salt and light, anyone?), or
3) The DoI oversteps God's intents, but is acceptable in His sight, and is effectively a vow, therefore we are bound to support it because He put us here, subject to that vow.

There's no salvation in politics, but there may be some of our purpose for being here.

The show in the movie doesn't make any sense. It seems like every episode before Ben Richards was cast ended at the first encounter, but Killian says that it's a 3 hour show. No stalker had ever died before, so were they just playing with the people and there was no actual danger? That can't be true because people do die in those encounters.

I mean...it's an excuse for action beats, but that script really needed another pass. I also kind of prefer the idea of the Network letting the running man loose into the world and having the people turn on him to win reward money.

324 Men were men and women were women, and men in dresses was just a joke.

Until the Crimean unpleasantness, a regular on Russian TV shows was "Verka Serduchka", who was funny because 1) he wore a dress while singing, and 2) he was Ukrainian. It was just a schtick - he was a completely straight guy.

He came in second in 2007 Eurovision contrast, representing Ukraine.

350 In my experience, most complaints about American Christians embracing conservatism comes from progressives who pass themselves off as Christian (but cannot be, since they don't acknowledge sin as God defines it), particularly ministers, who want to convince American Christians they should either stay on the sidelines, or if they're particularly dumb, jump on board with progressive causes.

That being said, there are really only three possibilities for American values:
1) The DoI and revolution were wrong, in which case Christians shouldn't support America (as it worships a false god) in any way.
2) The DoI is correct in God's sight, and we should be involved and opposed to the obvious evils of progressivism (salt and light, anyone?), or
3) The DoI oversteps God's intents, but is acceptable in His sight, and is effectively a vow, therefore we are bound to support it because He put us here, subject to that vow.

There's no salvation in politics, but there may be some of our purpose for being here.

361 The New Georgia Project had $11 million in its investment account in August when it set out to pay $2.45 million in cash for a sprawling Atlanta compound. Less than two months later, the organization dismissed half its leadership staff, citing a lack of funds.

A series of internal documents and correspondences obtained by the Washington Free Beacon reveals the bizarre circumstances surrounding the real estate deal, which several parties close to the matter say are indicative of a leadership crisis within the Stacey Abrams-founded group. The deal was spearheaded by Erin Ferguson, a junior New Georgia Project staffer who in a group text urged senior leadership in late August to sign a letter of intent to purchase the two adjacent properties and swiftly pay a $30,000 non-refundable deposit.

364 > The show in the movie doesn't make any sense. It seems like every episode before Ben Richards was cast ended at the first encounter, but Killian says that it's a 3 hour show. No stalker had ever died before, so were they just playing with the people and there was no actual danger? That can't be true because people do die in those encounters.

I don't understand. If the stalkers never died, but they were regularly killing people, then they weren't "playing with people" and there is plenty of danger. Other than that, I could see a show being built around the hunt and each deadly encounter. I wouldn't watch it, but I can imagine many people would. People loved that awful Squid Games show and that didn't even have real deaths.

They are very dynamic musically. Every song on the RIO album is excellent from a musical perspective - even though not always lyrically.

The idea is that the stalkers are just playing with the contestants and terrorizing them for a while until they go to the next stalker, which is possible, but no one ever treats the encounters like they won't lead to anything other than the death of the contestants. So...the shows couldn't have been longer than, maybe, half an hour, not three hours.

It's just not well thought out. I still get a kick out of it, but the world building is borderline shit.

In '87, Huey Lewis and the News released Fore, their most accomplished album. I think their undisputed masterpiece is "Hip to be Square", a song so catchy, most people probably don't listen to the lyrics. But they should, because it's not just about the pleasures of conformity, and the importance of trends, it's also a personal statement about the band itself.

I think its better stuff and I love Pyromania, but Hysteria just hits every single aspect of pop music so well and in such a great order. Every song is right on cue, like it was created based on some Golden Mean of pop music.

I mean its fluff, its pop but its really well crafted pop.

402 I've said before, Trump is a Democrat from 20 years ago.

I'm okay with that as the alternative was Hillary and then was Biden. But Trump's politics are profoundly ordinary and practically liberal.

Freaking out about him is just WEIRD.

And acting like Democrats are normal, somehow, is even weirder. Democrats have taken a hard left-authoritarian turn and don't seem to be looking back. Democrats today are not anything like Democrats 20 years ago or 40 years ago when the two parties were nearly indistinguishable from each other except on details. Heck, there were anti-abortion Dems back then.

Very interesting rhythms, almost nothing they did was derivative of anything before, other than a very light sheen of disco

418 The show in the movie doesn't make any sense. It seems like every episode before Ben Richards was cast ended at the first encounter, but Killian says that it's a 3 hour show. No stalker had ever died before, so were they just playing with the people and there was no actual danger? That can't be true because people do die in those encounters.

They probably release runners one at a time. Figure about 30-45 minutes per hunt, plus commercial breaks.

Posted by: FenelonSpoke at November 30, 2022 02:01 PM (vH/6k)

Yes, I think the DoI was correct. Lots of people like to pretend a couple verses from Romans sum up God's view of government and ignore that most every other time kings are mentioned it's in the context of the evil they do in their office. And they ignore when God directly comments on government (1 Samuel , it's clear He considers the desire for it to be a sin against Him.

I think Great Britain had done the best job on earth of implementing Biblical principals of how we all ought to treat each other in a nation of Christians, and the American Revolution ultimately happened that they weren't treating us quite that way. All we really added was a formal recognition that government itself is composed of sinners and its evil needs to be contained.

468 GB effectively had some of those constraints, though I don't know if they ever stated the theological need for them (which would be thorny since the monarch was also the head of the state church).

469 Melissa Joan Hart seems like a good and decent human being in addition to being lovely. Most of Hollywood is pretty, on the outside.

She had a wholesome image, then apparently decided that wasn't a good thing any more. I recall some articles where she gushed about how much she enjoyed anal with her boyfriend.

470 I'm good with Trump's anti-DC agenda. The problem is, he hires swamp people who either turn on him or try to sabotage his policies at the first opportunity. I can't help but believe Jared was a part of that crowd.

I don't like the Senate candidates he picked in PA and GA. PA should have been a slam dunk--but Trump picks someone from out of state. Walker is certainly better than the press has made him out to be, but like OZ, he has no experience and wasn't properly vetted.

Didja see that San Fran police say don't worry. The robots will not have guns. They'll be armed with bombs.

475 I don't have a gun and am unlikely to get one because of regulations in NJ. I don't think anyone belongs in a work camp, but I'll just plant my backside down and they'll have to haul me away. However, Id rather be in a work camp for say-holding Christmas Eve services than because I voted for Trump, and yes, I think there may be a move to stop Christmas services in some states because of Covid, because of course they want government as god.

It needs a female protagonist with bigger tits that jiggle when she runs.

That's right. I'm shallow. Sue me.

478 So it would be bad if Harmeet Dhillon teamed up with Tom Nichols on some allegedly pro-RNC campaign, but fine and dandy for Harmeet to team up with Henry Barbour?

There’s no logically consistency there. What it demonstrates is that Ace has an unattractive hard-on and ill will against certain eGOP activities, behind the scene players, politicians, billionaire campaign funders, but not others.

Can’t attributed it to ignorance, because as far as perception, opining is what Ace does for a living. So it’s purposeful, selective, targeting.

Complain all you want about Sundance — I have in the recent past — he does bring receipts.

479 Tom Nichols actually hails from a city known for its Polish Kielbasa, so all these nicknames are quite appropriate.

480 So they think Trump's been embarrassed by Kanye and Milo and some dude I've never heard of? Hardly. Nobody in the real world gives a shit what the establishment thinks.
