Reminder – The 2016 Trump
Conservative Critics Were 2009 Obama Fan Boys…Posted on May 30, 2016 by sundance
By now almost everyone has acknowledged that Donald Trump ripped the masks
from most of the modern professional punditry who espoused to be conservative
yet showed their hidden ideological colors as elite globalists.
Most notably evidenced in June ’15 as millions of Fox News viewers saw the
entire line-up of professional pundits proclaim: borders shouldn’t matter;
border walls won’t work; illegal alien amnesty was the only viable solution to
decades of unenforced immigration law; ObamaCare is not really all that bad,
and the federal government doesn’t really need a budget. Heck, to think, this
was only in week #1 of Donald Trump’s campaign.
Since June ’15, on almost every issue those same pundits have now openly
aligned themselves with GOPe agenda items like global trade, tax policy, big
government spending, and advocacy to including advancement of Speaker Paul
‘Omnibus’ Ryan.
However, as sharp reader DrudgeAddict smartly pointed out last year, these voices were the exact group who
gathered together in an exclusive meeting with President Obama in 2009 to sing his praises after the ’08
election. Including :
§
George Will
§
Michael Barone
§
David Brooks
§
Charles Krauthammer
§
Bill Kristol
§
Lawrence Kudlow
§
Rich Lowry
§
Peggy Noonan
All in attendance for a dinner meeting with president Obama before he took
office. The post-meeting/dinner report in The New Yorker Magazine holds the following quotes told by the
glowing participants of their time with President Obama:
Richard Lowry: “the only presidential candidate from either party about whom there is
a palpable excitement”.
Charles Krauthammer:
“Obama would be a president with the political intelligence of a Bill Clinton
harnessed to the steely self-discipline of a Vladimir Putin”, who would
“bestride the political stage as largely as did Reagan.”
Bill Kristol:“I
look forward to Obama’s inauguration with a surprising degree of hope and good
cheer.”
Larry Kudlow:
“[Obama] loves to deal with both sides of the issue.” “He revels in the back
and forth. And he wants to keep the dialogue going with conservatives.”
Indeed, it sounds like a joyful political love-fest amid the smitten
beltway punditry in 2009.
So is it really a surprise to read or hear their current, and collective,
opinion of the horribly unwashed pro-America vulgarian Trump?
Let’s review. Starting with the pundit who coined the term “vulgarian”,
George Will:
George Will 2015: “Donald
Trump Supporters Need To Come Into The Republican Party On Our Terms, Not Theirs” (link with video)
Rich Lowry 2015: “Look Trump attacks everyone but she’s become a much bigger target. And
I think part of what’s going on here is that last debate. Let’s be honest, Carly cut his balls off with the precision of
a surgeon“. (link with video)
Charles Krauthammer 2015: …”[…] And the pity is this: this is the strongest field of Republican
candidates in 35 years. You could pick a dozen of them at random and have the
strongest cabinet America has had in our lifetime, and instead, all of our time
is spent discussing this rodeo clown.”

Bill Kristol 2015: […] “I doubt I’d support Donald. I doubt I’d support the Democrat. I think I’d support getting someone good on the
ballot as a third party candidate.” (link)
(Via Instapundit ) AUGUST 2015 […] GOP establishment is trying so hard to
discredit Trump that they don’t seem to realize that they are angering a large
portion of their own constituency, which is hungering for leadership and a
willingness to openly defy P.C. norms. To paraphrase Hamlet,
me thinks they dost protest too much, and it is beginning to backfire on them and cause them
to take openly hypocritical positions.
Indeed, they are now taking the position that deporting illegal immigrants
is wrong. Oh, how the establishment loves
to talk tough on immigration when it suits its purposes of ginning up
conservatives on election day. But when a candidate comes along who actually
wants to do something about the
issue–and isn’t afraid to defy political correctness to do so–the GOP
establishment suddenly cries foul, and brands him a fool, dictator, or police
state zealot. The necessary implication is that the GOP establishment is all
hat, no cattle on immigration.
No wonder increasing numbers of those who self-identify as Republican now
openly abhor the party, and it totters on the brink of implosion. (link)

Pundits got it wrong.
The “Will
of the People” will redefine “Conservatism” and it won’t include any tolerance
for any immigration, especially Muslim or illegal immigration, Sharia law, multiculturalism,
foreign aid, nation building, UN Agenda 21, bad trade deals, loss of national
sovereignty, excessive federal spending, excessive federal debt, federal grant
bribery, excessive government giveaways, excessive environmentalism,
job-killing taxes and regulations, freedom-robbing intrusive federal laws,
unconstitutional federal activities and other forms of corruption.
We will
still have Communist Americans running the Democrat Party, but they won’t be in
the Whitehouse. Trump will redefine “Conservatism” with heavy doses of the
“Will of the People”. It looks like the
American People just might “take their country back”. America just might lead Europe out of the
socialist quicksand to get their countries back.
