Cultural cringe is strong because it taps into people’s prejudices, but it’s also weak when it comes to policy.
Biden’s people bet that they could slap an arms embargo on Israel and still draw in Never Trumpers. That’s proving to be a bad bet. He forgot that most of these folks disliked Obama’s policies and only backed Biden because he was supposed to be a moderate. Now after Afghanistan, Israel is looking like the last straw for a lot of people who, both Jewish and non-Jewish, had been committed Never Trumpers.
Fwiw. I’ve heard from a LOT of reliably anti-Trump people – I mean really, really, anti-Trump people – who have had it with Biden tonight. Anecdotal, to be sure. But very telling in my circle.

True. I was #NeverTrump before basically anybody. Biden screwing over our ally, at war, over domestic politics is the last straw. I am not pro-Trump but he's not the worst evil now. My shipmate (battle buddy? same?) @KurtSchlichter was right about all this, credit where it's due. https://t.co/Q26fsHvH9w

I’m one. Protested and didn’t vote for Trump in 2016, and turned down offers to join campaign and administration. Split ticket for Biden in 2020. Now ready to vote Trump in 2024 on Bill Barr grounds.

OK, I hope I have (to anyone silly enough to follow me over time) a lot of street cred here. I tried very hard (in time and treasure) to get us better choices in this upcoming election (#StillTeamNikki). But this feckless tool of the far left (yeah, run as a centrist again you… pic.twitter.com/MmarY2pYSV

My whole family who used to be FDR democrats are OUT! Not going to lie I’m loving the “I told you so’s”!

Biden didn’t want this to come out before Tuesday because it would step on his Holocaust speech. I cannot adequately express the depth of my contempt.

Just talked to two family members who, after tonight, are likely to switch their vote from 'None of the Above' to 'Trump'…even though they hate Trump.
All because of Biden's Israel position.
The idiots in the West Wing have no idea what they have wrought.

It’s a small sampling but much of it’s coming from some influential Never Trumpers.
Beyond that, a lot of American Jews who didn’t think that Biden vs. Trump had that much of a difference on Israel after Oct 7 have now come to see it in very stark terms. I’ve seen private texts and messages from generally apolitical people (and most people are apolitical) indicating a major shift.
After getting Sen. Schumer, Rep. Nadler and the assorted ‘Rabbis for Hamas’ in the Reform movement on board, Biden’s people thought that they were doing fine. That was a fundamental misreading of the situation.
Two things have happened.
- People who were Never Trumpers (Jewish or not) could lie to themselves that Biden was better on foreign policy. Now that has come apart.
- American Jews who thought that there wasn’t much of a difference between the two parties and didn’t follow the congressional shenanigans have been disabused of it.
This is a gamechanger.
Biden has alienated two parts of his base, American Jews and liberal Republicans and Democrat foreign policy hawks. He’s exposed himself as Obama 2.0. The impact won’t be immediately obvious in the polls, but it will hurt him.
And, of course, we all know who is really behind Biden’s polices. It is not the empty-headed Biden. I’ll give you a hint: the initials are BHO.
So, Biden can destroy America piece by piece, but just let him cross Israel and suddenly they notice?
Replace Biden’s name with Obama and your thought makes perfect sense…finally more might notice who is really behind the curtain that hates America.
He’s the 3rd term termite.
DERP.
Anybody who would vote for Alzheimer Joke Beijing Bidumb HATES AMERICA AN HAS SHIT FOR BRAINS.
I hope Jews notice.
We conservative heritage Americans have felt betrayed our entire lives. Reagan was good after the Carter malaise, and Trump was even better after Obama. But we must be capable of self-government and produce a culture that nurtures the development of great men and women.
America has been a true friend to Jews from its founding, so Jewish support of policies that will destroy us must stop. I hope conservative Jews will use their influence to win their friends and families to consider America First, and return the United States into the faithful ally she once was. Articles like this one are part of that strategy.

You know, Reagan was a very good public speaker. His speeches were a bit corny at times but he delivered them with panache. I remember when I was a kid I was supposed to hate him because the Dirtbagocrats on TV always told me to but I always noticed he was a nice guy and good speaker. I remember Carter as President when I was a kid. He ate peanuts and got soldiers killed in helicopter crashes. Dick licker. Uncle Ronny was cool.
He came to my hometown of Riverside California when he ran for President back in the day. My dumb friend yelled out “Reagan sucks!” and Ronnie looked at him with a face that said “What’s wrong with this stupid kid?” He was a funny guy, like Trump.
BHO is an intellectual Lilliputian — a hand puppet for big globalism, big tech, big (regime) media, etc.
Greatest fraud in human history. But still in his 3rd term.
Always has been.
BHO is a street punk who doesn’t have the brains to find his way out of a paper bag. But he was noticed by powerful people early on, groomed by them, and then manipulated into power, where he pursued (and still pursues) their goal of eliminating America to make way for one-world totalitarianism. Who are these people? The same people who gave us Covid, Covid “Vaccines,” and who now seem to be gearing up for “Covid 2.0 – Bird Flu.”
BHO has been initiating all the policies that are destructive to America and to Israel.
I am familiar with some of the names in this article.. My reaction is how can these people be so stupid to cling to being “never Trump” for this long? I am amazed at the navel-gazing bubble they are in!
We need a clean up on aisle “phony intellectuals” and a fair election.
Or Israel needs a new ally fast!
God is the best ally, really the only one.
Just heard that finally, Dizzy Lizzy Cheney is fed up with Biden. She can thank herself for this debacle by reminding herself that she has been shilling for Biden for over three years. What did she think would happen?
I mean seriously? Who doesn’t love Trump? Peace and prosperity Vs. a prolonged swirl down the toilet bowl? 20 million wetbacks raping our women and everything costs more than double what it used to??
I mean, we all hate that beady eyed buzzard, Alzheimer Joe, and his DORKY aviator glasses.
“The impact won’t be immediately obvious in the polls, but it will hurt him.” Daniel from your mouth to G-ds ears.
Biden isn’t going to be a candidate. Bet on it. He’s alienated too many people and, frankly, I believe his health is bad. Just listen to his voice in the CNN interview where he announced withholding weapons to Israel. Sounded horrible.
BO will have a replacement soon.
It’s hard for me to understand the NeverTrump mentality. They must not understand business or practical politics.
Or be brainwashed by MSM.
Trump was good for business. He is a businessman, not a politician. My Dad’s business buddies used to talk like that (Dad passed before Trump came on the scene).
Is rude talk more important than policies? Anyway I like the way Trump talks.
From the point of view of practical politics, Trump is the only non-Democrat who has a chance to get elected. Those who demand ideological conservative purity which appeals only to a few are bound to lose the election.
Yes. Exactly! What is the problem some Americans have with success?
I met a Lyft driver yesterday who was a nice guy but a never Trumper. There was no reasoning with him. It scares me that he’s allowed to vote.
Wish I could live long enough to see the “Never Ayn Rand”, “Never Objectivism”, people finally say. “Ayn Rand was RIGHT!”
Ayn Rand was fugly. If I ever want to make my dick semi limp, all I have to do is look at her photo. Nothing could make it fully limp, of course. I’m much too much of a manly man for that.
NeverTrumper were, are and shall forevermore be IRRELEVANT.
And dickless. Tiny peckers.
Okay. That’s a flickering glimmer.
But it’s a long way to November.
Biden et al are lying, procrastinating, lying, delaying, lying and waging everything on defeating Israel. How much of a sense of urgency and impending doom do the never Trump Trump voters feel?
What’s to be done right now? Will Congress the legislative branch, and the Supreme Court the judicial branch, override immediately this executive branch’s terror supporting, treasonous reneging of a contract?
The goals of the demands and conditions now attached to this contract are genocidal. Biden et al are in breach of contract with the American people and Israel. The administration is acting as a foreign agent for Egypt’s, Qatar’s, Iran’s and Hamas’ interests and certain Arabs from Gaza to import to America, and is also committing crimes of humanity: for prohibiting Gazans who don’t want to die, from leaving the war zone; for obstructing rescue of hostages, dead and alive; for allowing terror tunnels to remain intact and protecting the terrorists; for feeding and supplying the enemy; for guaranteeing continuing terror from Gaza, and therefore more terror from Israel’s borders to the north, east and south.
When Netanyahu spoke at Yad Vashem, he said that, even though no leaders of the world stand with Israel, “Israel has friends”.
This has always been true.
Israel will honor her friends. They will be blessed, and the rest of the world will bear its iniquity.
Because this is BO’s 3rd term, and he hates us. How much more does it take to convince them?
Frogs in a pot of water on the stove – the heat is increased until the frogs goose is cooked – well – seems like that may not be the total end to the frogs in a pot on the stove. The froggies are noticing and they don’t like the heat in the pot of water on the stove and they are leaping out.
And did you notice frogs and especially toads have a habit of peeing on you? They’re like Dirtbagoctrats that way.
When you betray your allies, even your enemies don’t respect you.
You do remember that Obama 1.0 won twice, right???
Won what? A dick sucking contest?
I suspect he stole those elections.
In 2008, he stole the NV Dem primary.
He swallowed them whole. “GULP!”
I remember that a 3-star USAF general said BO stole CIA software in February 2009.
Trump is a trojan horse, but I’m glad he’s getting elected, but not hopeful other than we get rid of the comrades for a uniparty guy building a family dynasty in politics. He added to the swamp and kept them firmly in power. He always bailed on the people when it came time to protect us and only cared about his own survival. He’s going to do the same thing again. Appoint the bill barrs, let grahmnasty advise him, let election campaigns be severely incompetent, won’t make an effort to send all the illegals home won’t be any consequences for the partisans who persecuted him. How do we know? He has never shown that he learned a thing or will change after 7 years. He liked Johnson and worked behind the lines, recently says he can work with Wray, allowed Whatley to insert himself at the top of the GOP, among other ridiculous same as usual, might as belong to the uniparty
It’s almost like Trump must work within the same establishment you routinely give DeSantis and Kemp a free pass for being funded by and cooperating with.
The Senate REFUSED to confirm anyone but Wray, so direct your ire where it belongs.
>let election campaigns be severely incompetent
The President is not the King of America.
Power flows UPWARD from the local level, not downward from the Feds. You don’t get to ignore the local and state level elections where the real decisions are made.
You don’t get to elect terrible leaders in your own state and then complain that Trump isn’t doing anything. Our government works the EXACT opposite way.
Learn basic civics.
americans are hand wringing asleepniks . all the warnings have gone on unheeded for years . now that the country has been destroyed they suddenly believe they can save whats left . regardless of who wins the next round nothing will change because the unelected swamp have made sure it cant be turned around . 81 mill. voted for the imbecile empty suit who thinks he is the president because mean tweet orange man bad . sorry , no sympathy .!!
New flash to Never Trumpers
* Jenny Paulson’s husband cheated on her.
* Bezos dumped his wife for a fresh thing
* The Patriots owner solicited prostitutes.
* Trump cheated on his wife
All billionaires and all cheated on their wives. So Trump may have been with Stormy Daniels. If i was golfing with him (not happening, but if i were) and i mixed it up, I would chide him for his lack of taste.
I have two aunt’s who face time every day and read the the Bible through form cover to cover as part of some learning plan they got. One of my aunts said she know Trump is no angel but he gets things done,
How is Trump better than Clinton he entered into an consensual relationship with an adult painted lady. Clinton entered into a relationship with a direct report or subordinate in the office.
Clinton also told someone to put Ice on it.
Trump is better than Biden. Tara Reid is hiding out in Russia because she is afraid of being Arkancided.
It was always going to end badly for the Never Trumpers because they are delusional
Once in a while you write something right. Once.😀
I am screwing with the real Micjkorn
It bothers me naught as he does not argue sincerely
Billionaires cheat on their wives. It is what they do.. Lower and middle class men would also cheat on their wives except for a lack of money or some dare not stray lest they touch the 3rd rail. The motive is their but the consequences cannot be papered over with money and they know it.
I would suspect that billionaires damn near cheat at a rate approaching 100%, more than other socio-economic levels. Most others suspect this too. So when they are voting Trump they know they are not voting for an angel. they are voting for someone who will get things done for the American people.
Biden gets things done alright but not for the American people.
We don’t all cheat on our girls. I never do.
If the American Jewsih community believes that Biden’s policies and kowtowing to Dearborn and Hamas have caused a huge increase in anti Semitism. that sector of what had been for the most part solidly Democratic may very well walk away from Biden. and and in many instancs vote for Trump, as many American Jewish voters already voted against Carter, Obama and Biden as the party base grew more woke by each election
Jonah Goyturd? We all hate you. Get over your TDS, you retard. Peace and prosperity made America great again. Praderp J Wanker Mad Doctor? Is that even a real name? Billdo Kristolnacht? That asshole is still alive? John Shitler? A guy named Barack? Are you fucking kidding me? Clifford Assness? How do you even belittle a name that fucked up? Ted Stank? You assholes are making this too easy for me. John Podhoretz? O.K. I won’t fuck with you because I love Commentary Magazine but you aren’t Norman.
