So- there’s a movement afoot on the right side of the aisle- to insist that ‘real conservatives’ should vote for Kamala Harris to quote. “Save conservatism from itself”.
This is an idiotic, notion, of course: if you don’t like Trump and want to see the party ‘turn the page’ on him, just don’t vote at all. That makes sense.
But why would you help the democrats keep control and boost us further down this aggressive path toward socialism and wokeism that they have us on?
How can you possibly call yourself a conservative and -vote democrat- in today’s situation?
What I mean is- 30 or 40 years ago-when both parties were run by people who genuinely loved America ...and capitalism. And who saw the greatness of this country and it’s importance, globally-
Back when the differences between the two parties were only ‘by degrees’...and the arguments were largely over what was the ‘best way’ to achieve our shared goals-
Back then- pre-Clinton- voting for the other party if you were upset with your own made more sense.
But today’s democrat party is controlled by people who are, increasingly, America-haters, socialists, and woke bullies.
Today’s democrat party agenda is -antithetical-to what America is ..and what both parties stood for...for over 200 years.
So, to say you are a pro-America, pro-constitution conservative now- and say that you’re going to ‘vote democrat’ to ‘save conservatism’...is genuinely idiotic.
One of the authors of this movement is former national review writer David French.
Remember him? He’s a former jag lawyer who served in the war on terror-then came back and made a name for himself as a columnist and pundit. He’s religious. A self-described evangelical.
And he just wrote a piece in the NY Times that suggests- he’s voting Kammy to save us from ourselves, on the right.
This is a guy who likes to think of himself as the moral conscience of the right. He’s the evangelical conscience of America- as his fellow columnist- Everett Piper puts it in the Washington Times.
Piper recently shredded French and this entire ‘conservatives for Kamala’ movement by writing:
This past week, David French wrote in The New York Times that to “save conservatism from itself,” he is voting for Kamala Harris.
You heard that right. This man, who appears to fancy himself the evangelical conscience of America, just told you that to save conservatism, you should vote for the Marxism of Black Lives Matter, the misogyny of drag queens, the infanticide of Planned Parenthood, the racism of critical race theory, the sexual exploitation of your sons and daughters in the public schools and the wholesale trafficking of children at our southern border.
That’s correct: no conservative or evangelical voter in his or her right mind could possibly vote for the Harris/Walz ticket.
These two are the most overtly Marxist, most overtly, anti-traditional America- of any duo we’ve ever seen on a presidential ticket.
A vote for them-really is-a vote for socialism in the form of price fixing and even more massive govt programs that promise ‘freebees’ to certain groups of people (those who vote democrat) ...being funded by the rest of us. All in the name of ‘redistribution of wealth’ and ‘equity’.
Who in their right mind would vote for that?
I don’t care if you’re a Buddhist monk or an atheist: who in their right mind would vote for that?
But to say you are doing so ‘in order to save the conservative movement in America’ is a particular kind of idiocy.
Another rap on David French’s way of thinking comes from the religious editor at the Washington Times...who writes:
Yes, we do understand. “Evangelicals for Harris” such as Mr. French may be willing to sell their souls for the sake of Times Square’s popularity and the Beltway’s power. Still, we should pray to God that the rest of America remembers on Nov. 5 that these people are not shepherds but rather little more than wolves among the sheep.
Folks, over the years here-
Over the Trump and Biden eras, we have talked a lot on this show about how the grand plan for democrats under Pelosi and Obama and Hillary and those running the show in the modern era-
Their grand plan is to-expressly and specifically- implement changes that will allow them to take permanent control of this country, right?
We know what their plans are if they ever get the white house and the numbers in congress to do it: take over and federalize elections. Add dc and Puerto Rico as places with congressional representation, to boost the dem advantages permanently.
Flood the country with tens of millions of illegals and give them govt freebees before you make them all ‘legal’ and eligible to vote.
Another benefit of the flood of illegals: they count in the overall population totals when we apportion out house seats-and so- more illegals in blue states and blue cities means more democrat seats in congress.
This is already-an immediate benefit- of Biden’s open borders.
They plan ot take control of the supreme court so that when they ram thru their unconstitutional laws that ‘bake their permanent control into the pie’...a conservative supreme court cannot stop them.
We have talked about what the ‘grand plan’ is for today’s democrats if they ever get the numbers in congress.
Knowing that- who in the hell would vote for ‘more’ of this? How would anyone who calls themselves a conservative or a supporter of traditional America- ever. Ever- vote democrat to ‘save’ traditional America and the constitution?
As I say-you’d need to be a special kind of ‘brain damaged’.
“Conservatives for Harris’ and /or ‘evangelicals for Harris’ ...is a special kind of stupid.
