The End Of Conservatism

Comments to Steve Sailer:

* Was all this David-Duke-KKK stuff the ‘atomic bomb’ meant for Trump?

* … and all it took was a savvy and quick-witted, independently wealthy, independently famous, uninhibited billionaire reality TV star willing to finance his own campaign and with a gift for using the new media to thwart the old one. Who says the system’s rigged?

The Aryan Vulgarian is forcing the mainstream political class to finally have to take some shots a little bit rather than assume they get to just dish them out for decade after decade. This is happening now because of Trump but it’s much bigger than just the Republican Party in the US or even the whole of counterfeit conservatism throughout the Anglosphere.

I almost feel sorry for these pundits and consultants who were sure they were famous because they were the smartest people in the country, rather than because they worked for the guys with a media network and knew how to play the game of kiss up and kick down on TV.

These guys have had a scare put into them so, if Trump’s campaign fails, these mainstream conservatives will join with the social justice warriors to crack down on so-called internet hate and domestic terrorism. Their Trotskyite side will be turned on the rest of us, rather than just on people in faraway countries. That’s why Trump has to go all the way now.

* Drudge and Breitbart are nearly single issue now. Trump has shown that being right on immigration means you can be wrong from their perspective on everything else. It’s an open question where this all goes from here.

* I used to think that I was a Republican and a conservative. No longer. This election season made me realize I’m neither. Maybe just an American realist. I’m embarrassed when I think that I once had subscriptions to TNR, First Things, et al., and used to give money to conservative groups. Fuck that, I now hate the conservative establishment with a red-hot passion and want nothing but doom upon them. For me it’s Trump or nothing. Never, ever again.

President Calvin Coolidge: “The business of America is business.”

Marco Rubio: “Donald Trump is a con-man.”

Robert Kraft, billionaire owner of the Patriots: “Donald Trump is a financial genius.” (7/20/2015, TMZ)

Marco Rubio: “Donald Trump’s not a good businessman.”

Billionaire business titans who have known Trump for decades, have spoken to Trump’s business acumen, and support Trump for President:

* I can’t help recommending Anne Applebaum’s Twitter feed as a great source of just this sort of impotent rage and hand flapping. Because she and her husband have their thumbs in pies on both sides of the Atlantic, her tweets are a one-stop shop for those of us looking for news on the collapse of this lousy “end of history” era.

* Trump derangement syndrome. Half this self-important loon’s tweets are about Trump being a Brownshirt.

* David Frum writes: As the governor of Florida, Bush had cut taxes and balanced budgets. He’d challenged unions and championed charter schools. At the same time, Bush passionately supported immigration liberalization. The central event in his life history was his reinvention as an honorary Latino American when he married a Mexican woman, Columba Garnica de Gallo. He spoke Spanish at home. He converted to Catholicism. He sought his fortune with a Cuban American business partner. In his most quotable phrase, he described illegal immigration as an “act of love.”

Bush’s update of Conservatism Classic had made him a hit with the party’s big donors. He had won accolades from Karl Rove (“the deepest thinker on our side”) and Arthur Brooks, the president of the American Enterprise Institute (“a top-drawer intellect”). Yet within five weeks of his formal declaration of candidacy on June 15, Bush’s campaign had been brutally rejected by the GOP rank and file.

Something has changed in American politics since the Great Recession. The old slogans ring hollow. The insurgent candidates are less absurd, the orthodox candidates more vulnerable. The GOP donor elite planned a dynastic restoration in 2016. Instead, it triggered an internal class war.

The premise of the past few thousand words is that the Republican donor elite failed to impose its preferred candidate on an unwilling base in 2015 for big and important reasons. But maybe that premise is wrong. Maybe Jeb Bush has just been a bad candidate with a radioactive last name. Maybe the same message and platform would have worked fine if espoused by a fresher and livelier candidate. Such is the theory of Marco Rubio’s campaign. Or—even if the donor message and platform have troubles—maybe $100 million in negative ads can scorch any potential alternative, enabling the donor-backed candidate to win by default.

Perhaps some concession to the disgruntled base is needed. That’s the theory of the Cruz campaign and—after a course correction—also of the Christie campaign. Instead of 2013’s “Conservatism Classic Plus Immigration Liberalization,” Cruz and Christie are urging “Conservatism Classic Plus Immigration Enforcement.” True, Cruz’s carefully selected words on immigration leave open the possibility of guest-worker programs or other pro-employer reforms after a burst of border enforcement. But Cruz and Christie have seen the reaction to Donald Trump’s message, and appear to appreciate the need to at least seem to do something to redress the grievances of the Republican base.

Yet a narrow focus on immigration populism alone seems insufficient to raise Republican hopes. Trump shrewdly joins his immigration populism to trade populism. On the Democratic side, Bernie Sanders’s opposition to open borders is logically connected to his hopes for a Democratic Socialist future: His admired Denmark upholds high labor standards along with some of the world’s toughest immigration rules. Severed from a larger agenda, however—as Mitt Romney tried to sever the issue in 2012—immigration populism looks at best like pandering, and at worst like identity politics for white voters. In a society that is and always has been multiethnic and polyglot, any national party must compete more broadly than that.

Which brings us to …

Option 3: True Reform

Admittedly, this may be the most uncongenial thought of them all, but party elites could try to open more ideological space for the economic interests of the middle class. Make peace with universal health-insurance coverage: Mend Obamacare rather than end it. Cut taxes less at the top, and use the money to deliver more benefits to working families in the middle. Devise immigration policy to support wages, not undercut them. Worry more about regulations that artificially transfer wealth upward, and less about regulations that constrain financial speculation. Take seriously issues such as the length of commutes, nursing-home costs, and the anticompetitive practices that inflate college tuition. Remember that Republican voters care more about aligning government with their values of work and family than they care about cutting the size of government as an end in itself. Recognize that the gimmick of mobilizing the base with culture-war outrages stopped working at least a decade ago.

Such a party would cut health-care costs by squeezing providers, not young beneficiaries. It would boost productivity by investing in hard infrastructure—bridges, airports, water-treatment plants. It would restore Dwight Eisenhower to the Republican pantheon alongside Ronald Reagan and emphasize the center in center-right.

* Well it’s about time we turn our back on Frum and the rest of his “Unpatriotic Conservatives.” Thanks to them we’re bankrupt and the Middle East is burning. And he wonders why his ilk is so hated.

* When is Frum going to denounce the mainstream republicans as unpatriotic? Recall his denunciation of Patrick Buchanan and others who did not support the Iraq War as the unpatriotic conservatives. I would like to see him write something similar about these GOP turncoats.

* Time to get over Frum’s nasty 2003 article in National Review [on unpatriotic conservatives who oppose the invasion of Iraq]. For the past 5 years or more, his has undertaken the difficult and thankless task of selling immigration restriction to elite centrist types.

His Twitter feed is full of him hitting back on attacks on Trump:

And he’s a top main-streamer of HBDsphere ideas, for example:

Steve.

Frum.

* Trump’s rise would not have been possible without the visibly inept and corrupt GOP elites. They spent much of their credibility on neocon foreign policy and donor-friendly domestic policy, and turned our to have nothing to offer most of their voters besides ineffectual rage about social policies like gay marriage and abortion. (Their opposition hasn’t been effective enough to stop either of those things, but has done well at raising money and keeping religious in line when it came to support for bombing more peasants or bailouts for the banks or lowering taxes at the top.

Europe Got Very Interesting In 2015

Steve Sailer writes: To me, Europe suddenly got very interesting around January 3, 2015 with word of the imminent publication of Houellebecq’s novel Submission. Within a week, Houellebecq was on the cover of Charlie Hebdo and much of the staff was murdered. The Camp of the Saints built all spring, with Hillary-wrecked Libya as the prime leak. Then, suddenly in late summer, came Dr. Merkel’s own goal against the German people. More memorable incidents followed in Paris and Cologne.

The endurance of the Trump Phenomenon has something to do with the one car crash of the Anti-Trump, Dr. Merkel: experienced, boring, time-tested … and yet suddenly she turned viciously on her own people and was praised for it by everybody respectable until Paris and Cologne.

COMMENTS:

* This brought to mind all of the recent articles about objections to Trump from Mexican politicians. Interesting, but what does that have to do with the decision of Americans about who their next president will be?

It seems in many countries we are reaching a fork in the road. What is the purpose of a state? Is Germany for the welfare of Germans? Or is it also for looking after refugees (granted, the plight of many of these people is tragic?) What is the purpose of the US state? To look after the welfare of US citizens? Or to also accommodate as many immigrants as manage to enter the country, legally or illegally?

This will be decided in the US in November, which makes it a critical election.

* A woman who has clawed/is clawing her way up to the leadership of her country is congenitally unable to admit she’s ever been wrong. Female leaders are a lot worse about this than the men who have held the same jobs. It’s a female trait made worse by the rock-solid arrogance and belief in yourself that you need to compete in politics. Hillary Clinton has never admitted she’s been wrong, Margaret Thatcher never admitted that she’d been wrong, and I could go on and on. Indira Gandhi, Evita, Isabel Peron, Golda Meir, etc.

* Culturally left wing Germans including Merkel want to change Germany by making it a mixed race society. Through race mixing Germany can become homogeneous with the rest of Europe by becoming more mediocre. It will be the end to the Nordicism that they’ve learned to hate so much.

* The Trump campaign emailed reporters the following statement hailing Sessions’ endorsement:

Today Donald J. Trump received the endorsement of Alabama Senator Jeff Sessions. Senator Sessions is widely recognized as the nation’s most highly respected official on the issue of illegal immigration.

Mr. Trump stated, “I am deeply honored to have the endorsement of Senator Jeff Sessions, leader of congressional conservatives. He has been called the Senate’s indispensable man and the gold standard. He led the fight against the Gang of Eight, against Obama’s trade deal, against Obama’s judges, and for American sovereignty. He has stood up to special interests as few have. There is no more respected man in Congress and we are closely aligned on many issues, including trade and illegal immigration, and I am proud to consider Jeff Sessions an advisor, friend and ally.”

Mr. Trump and Senator Sessions surprised the massive crowd at the frontrunner’s Alabama rally just days before Super Tuesday Primary contest.

Senator Sessions added, “I am thrilled today to offer my endorsement of Donald J. Trump for President. This election is our last chance to save U.S. sovereignty and to end the domination of the political establishment over the interests of working Americans. Trump alone has rejected the donor class, defending America’s jobs and wages from open borders, uncontrolled immigration and the massive Trans-Pacific Partnership that will cede U.S. authority to foreign powers. Trump’s trade and immigration plans will revitalize our shrinking middle class, keeping jobs and wealth and income inside the United States of America. Trump understands that a nation must always place the interests of its own people first.”

Senator Sessions continued, “We are nearing fast the point of no return. The people are hurting. Their wages are declining. Their schools are overburdened. Their hospitals are stretched past the breaking point. Crime is up, and community confidence is down. Americans of all backgrounds and ethnicities, immigrant and US-born, are crying out for leadership that puts their needs first, that takes care of those living and dreaming here today, leadership that understands that there is no constituency other than the American constituency. Mr. Trump is that leader.”

* I think the contrast between Merkel and Putin worked in Trump’s favour. Merkel looked like a fool while Putin looked like the man with a plan, especially on Syria. All the craziness coming out of Paris, Cologne and a dozen other places in Europe only added to the sense that the West’s leadership has no clue what it’s doing and someone new is worth a try.

* Merkel has been bad on pretty much ALL the big issues:

Shutting down nuclear reactors after Fukushima was flat out stupid (even if you don’t believe in anthropogenic climate change).

On Greece she wasn’t the worst, but she should’ve done more to reign in the macroeconomic madness of Herr Schauble and the myopic creditors.

And now on immigration, an absolute disaster.

I love and respect Germany, but I’m afraid its fate is to find ever new ways to destroy Europe.

* Most PC Oscars ever, where sodomy and bardashery were celebrated, World War T was waged (“gender confirmation surgery”), blacks’ rioting was encouraged, open borders were affirmed, and global warming was sung.

* Chavez famously had some sort of TV show every week during his rule where he would extemporaneously speak for hours. I wonder if a President Trump will have something similar. Trump loves going on diatribes on TV against his enemies.

* The generous explanation is that immigration is the easiest way to shed the Holocaust burden. At some level Merkel and many other Germans just want to live in a normal country and not have to be confronted with the Nazi past every 5 minutes. One way to do this is to make Germany a multiracial society full of people whose ancestors weren’t there. Mesut Özil and Sami Khedira can’t be shamed with Nazi guilt. A Germany full of Özils and Khediras can start swinging its weight around Europe and the world again with a little more swagger. I can sympathize a little even if I think the policy is wrong headed and naive.

* Then the question becomes: will taking in refugees actually relieve Germany of the Holocaust Burden?

Dr. Merkel should consider that it’s not clear that defeating Hitler in the biggest war of all time has fully relieved America, Russia, and Britain of the Holocaust Burden.

* An economist would simply apply a holocaust/benefit analysis.

* If you start counting with Charlemagne, the Third Reich constitutes 1% of the history of the German nation.

Another war on the 1%.

Chris Rock’s Oscar Monologue

Comments to Steve Sailer:

* Did anyone just see the Chris Rock Oscar monologue? Holy crap, I was not expecting that all! It had some of the most “HBD-influenced” commentary I have ever seen in a mainstream media event. I never thought I would hear that Rocky/Star Wars joke on TV! Are we living through the death throes of PC?

* I wonder how this angst-ridden, American racial drama plays out around the world. American blacks want to see more movies with blacks but the world wide box office probably doesn’t.

I’m getting pretty fatigued with all this diversity being shoved into my face everywhere I go.

* I liked it because:

1. Rock explicitly stated that “lack of diversity” isn’t quite as bad as your grandmother getting lynched.

2. It’s always nice to see preachy left-wingers get called out on their massive hypocrisy.

3. Once again, “diversity” only meant “black”. I’m sure Chris Rock was bummed by the lack of Latino and Asian nominees. But he wasn’t bummed enough to mention it.

* Lynching? Something like 3500 blacks were lynched in the history of the US, and about 1500 whites were lynched too, so it’s hardly a black experience. Also, rape? White men simply don’t rape black women, probably due to black women not being all that attractive. We all know the statistics.

* I’m getting tired of paying for what I expect to be entertainment, and then finding out I’ve paid to receive a moral lecture about what a shitty person I am for wanting my children to have a future. No more. I refuse to support anything that is based on the promotion of minorities or feminism.

It would seem that the decades of propaganda seeking to convince me that I’m a racist have worked.

* Hispanics, Asians and others are not complaining. The way blacks carry on you would think 50% of the population claims it is being cheated, not 12%. It’s crazy and they better get their licks in now because they will get lots less attention after January 20th. I’ll bet 50% of blacks are embarrassed by this gaudy, ghettoish displaying, preening and bitching that never ends.

* I’m happy to watch movies with Samuel L. Jackson or Dwayne Johnson. I also like movies with Matt Damon or Harrison Ford. I suspect most blacks feel the same way: we want to see interesting — or at least fun — movies.

* NYT 1998: Last year ”Seinfeld,” the top-rated television show in white households, ranked 50th in African-American homes, according to Nielsen Media Research, while the comedy ”Between Brothers,” No. 1 in black households, ranked 112th among whites.

Similarly, according to Nielsen, in the first two months of the current prime-time season, ”The Steve Harvey Show,” a comedy, ranked No. 1 in black households, but 118th in white households, while ”Friends,” the No. 1 comedy and No. 2 show overall in white households, ranked just 91st for blacks.

* Ah yes. The 1960s. A hotbed of lynchings. All those grandmothers swinging from trees in 1962. So tragic.

* What no one wants to acknowledge is that Chinese and other non-American people, who make up a huge slice of Hollywood film viewership, don’t really want to see blacks. Just like most Americans don’t really want to see aboriginals in Australian films.

* Like the swan in Clooney’s ass, I have an impacted ass full of getting lectured on racism. Those cucks sat quietly and took their medicine.

* Who cares what one whiny rich lefty entertainer said to a bunch of other whiny rich lefty entertainers at their annual lefty industry award show?

The Oscars are over. The tokenism will burn it down, which is why, 10-15 years, writers will lament how the Oscars “aren’t glamorous” anymore and have somehow become “cliche” and “déclassé” all other sorts of euphemisms for complaining about affirmative action taking over.

Pass the popcorn, though. I love to watch a good disaster flick in the middle of the destruction. Especially when the players so richly deserve their fate.

* I thought Mr. Rock’s monologue made a lot of sense. It certainly wasn’t the idiotic rant I’ve come to expect from other Negroes put in his position. That said, there has been a mutual drifting apart of the races in this country. One place it shows up is in the utterly different racial tastes in movies, television, radio, and music. I don’t think there is any way to heal this rift. An official and detailed separate but equal policy is probably the best bet at this point.

* The portion of the Oscars I watched was a continuance loop of pet project grievances. Climate change, sexual harassment, immigration, whatever the acronym for homosexuals, etc is now, and, of course, RACISM. An industry circle jerk has morphed into an ideological circle jerk. Hard to watch before, like a train wreck now – hard to turn away it’s so bad.

A DNC infomercial with some gold statues and cool grab bags thrown in for good measure.

Anti-Gay Stickers At Indio High School Touch Off Debate: Hate Speech Or Free Speech?

There is no distinction between hate speech and free speech. If free speech does not protect hate speech, there is no free speech. One man’s hate speech is another man’s Torah. The Torah commands the Jews to commit genocide against Amalek. Is that not hate speech? Much of Torah could be condemned as hate speech.

Opposing the celebration of homosexuality was long a normal form of speech in the West. Even liberals 30 years ago did not want their kids to grow up to be gay.

News: INDIO (CBSLA.com) — Students displaying anti-LGBT stickers at a high school in Indio have touched off a debate: is that free speech or hate speech?

The stickers show a rainbow — the symbol of the gay community — with a line crossing through it. Officials said the stickers have increasingly shown up over the past two weeks on some students’ school ID badges at Shadow Hills High School, as well as on social media websites.

The increasing number of the stickers caused an outcry at the school among students and faculty. Many called it hate speech. Shadow Hills senior and vice president of the Gay Straight Alliance Michelle Bachman said on Twitter that the stickers were “definitely hate speech, but legally, we can’t do anything until these students start to physically harass us, which I believe is an injustice.”

School district administrators said the students have the right to display the stickers, just as pro-LGBT students would.

In an email sent to staff Wednesday, Desert Sands Unified School District administrators wrote, “After consulting with district level personnel and our legal counsel, it was determined that these students do have the protected right to freedom of speech, just as students portraying rainbows in support of the LGBT would.”

What’s A Hispanic?

Comments to Steve Sailer:

* What always amazes me is how the Mestizos and Indios eagerly wear the “Hispanic” or “Latino” persona. It’s analog would be “African-Americans” cheering for their Anglo-Saxon identity. The Spaniards and Portuguese *brutally* subjugated the Indios and Negros throughout the Americas. The Indians and Africans who were born in or shipped to the United States really hit the lottery, yet their descendents are filled with hate and jealousy while those born or sent South pretend to be of the oppressor class even while they’re currently oppressed. The psychology of this is fascinating.

* NYT now has some very high standards for whiteness, I notice. Have the Nordic-centric types taken over? Are they going to kick the Italians and Greeks out of the club next?

* Tom Flores won 2 Super Bowls a coach of the Raiders and was backup QB on the Chiefs’ Super Bowl 4 (to hell with Roman numerals!) and is in the Pro Football Hall of Fame. Ron Rivera could have been since he was also a member of the 1985 Bears.

But in neither case was anyone making a big deal about it as with Tony Dungy. And Dungy had a very good team in Tamps that never got over the top because he had some backward ideas about offense. He was brought into Indy to “coach” the Colts only to make the defense decent enough to give Peyton Manning and Tom Moore, who ran the offense,a shot. Dungy had nothing to do with the offense at all. And his old Tampa team under Jon Gruden quickly won a title.

Shaun King has gotten himself in the soup with many sports media types who usually line up with PC cause by dredging up a settled lawsuit vs Peyton Manning and the University of Tennessee. Manning claimed he was mooning another player, female trainer says he was quite a bit more obnoxious, but either way settled out of court several decades ago. But such luminaries as Mike Lupica and Jason Whitlock have taken King to task. Would appear the New York Daily News is desperate for attention and is using the lightning rod that is King for quick empty attention.

* What intrigues me more than someone’s biological ancestry is the fact that socio-economic class tends to be rather well conserved from generation to generation. How many RCA salesman from the Canary Islands were there in Cuba in 1939?

I’ve always been keenly conscious of this, having been rather base-born myself. Wealth and status have to be built up from one generation to the next. I think the hardest thing any family lineage has to accomplish is completing the transition from wage-slavery to petite bourgeoisie, i.e. the middle class. It is the most difficult step on the whole spectrum, as it involves a fundamental shift in one’s basic notions of money, property, honor, and a host of other things. The gap between the middle class and the variously described poorer classes beneath them is the widest gap in the world.

However, once that step is taken, it’s relatively easy to see how a child who begins his life in a middle class milieu has a reasonable chance at climbing into the professional class—e.g. the MBAs, doctors, lawyers, accountants, FIRE trades, and other credentialed professions—provided that his own talents and intelligence are worthy of the the task. But if you start out in the lower class, it sometimes doesn’t matter how hardworking and intelligent you are. The barriers to entry really are quite high. Your early formative experiences will not condition you to function in the middle class world, exemplars will be lacking, and family support will be nonexistent. The best a man can do is hope to make enough money to shield his children from the harsher realities, and to send them to a school were children from the next higher rung up the ladder go, in the hopes that new milieu will take over in them, and it’s a very hard task. It presupposes a great deal of patience and long-term thinking which the daily realities of a lower class life are constantly attempting to subvert. It requires the choice of a good and sympathetic woman as a wife, and such women are hard to find anywhere, especially among the lower classes. It also requires a strong Church to serve as the moral governance of the community. If I didn’t already think Ted Cruz to be a truly nasty individual, I would disqualify him from further consideration solely on the ground that his father apostatized from the Catholic faith.

Anyone who feels at home in the middle class needs to recognize that he is in possession of a great inheritance that was dearly bought with the labors, tears, and humiliations of an earlier generation. If you’ve never been without it, you will never realize what a sweet thing it is to grow up with that background, that culture, and those opportunities. I know this sounds a lot like the “White Privilege” argument, but it I am not intending to tear anyone else down or advocating for any kind of redistribution. I’m just saying that, considered in the broad sweep of human history, a middle class lifestyle is a rare thing indeed and it ought to be cherished.

* Speaking of racio-political chicanery, the ADL is surely the best in the game. They did their usual “you must disavow this straw man” schtick against Trump (with David Duke as the straw man) and both Rubio and Cruz have run with the ADL’s ball.

Gypsy Intelligence

Dr. James Thompson writes:

I never spent much time thinking about gypsies. I had assumed that gypsies were gypsies, lived in caravans, bred horses and played violins in restaurants. People do stuff. It is probably better to earn money in a restaurant than to spend it there. With the passage of time I became more curious, particularly when definitional battles began to rage about travellers, itinerants, and the Romany peoples, with various spokespersons claiming priority in representing their interests, which often seemed in direct contradiction to other more settled people’s rights. Although all peoples are as ancient as other peoples in chronological fact, the Roma sometimes seemed to be claiming chronological priority, at least as far as their nomadic way of life was concerned.

So, it was with interest and some trepidation that I opened Jelena Cvorovic’s “The Roma: A Balkan Underclass” Ulster Institute for Social Research, 2014…

Cvorovic concentrates on the Serbian Roma, with whom she has worked for 10 years. I had previously seen a film she had produced, in which different gypsy leaders spent much of their interview time explaining that their particular group were the real thing, and that the other gypsy groups lacked racial purity, and were giving the true Roma a bad name. Somehow, this clashed with the narrative I was expecting, and was possibly willing to support, that they were a minority who had been given a hard time. The film showed disordered settlements, and children living in severe poverty, some giving every appearance of mental backwardness.

Books are a better medium than film to get into details (though the film certainly had an impact). Cvorovic gives the quick background: the Roma are socially excluded (and exclude themselves) with life expectancies 10 to 15 years lower than the European norm, high infant mortality, and an 80% unemployment rate. The Roma, Gypsies, Travellers, Cigani, Manouches, Sinti showed up in Europe from the North West of India between the ninth and fourteenth centuries. No-one knows why. There are an estimated 10 to 12 million living on the margins of European society, either in niche occupations or “living off the land” which in some cases means living off other people’s property. Their code of conduct minimizes contact with non-gypsy people, and particularly abjures marriage with non-gypsies.

With great craftiness they found that Europeans in the Middle Ages received them with Christian charity, and deduced that these kind Europeans would sympathise with Egyptians, who after all had left Egypt searching for the promised land, as the Bible explained. Hence, they called themselves Egyptians, from which eGypt-sies derives, and cast themselves as dispossessed dukes, kings and princes from that land. Christians required documentary proof that these early asylum seekers were legitimate, and the gypsies willingly proffered a forged document from King Sigismund of Hungary, which represented them as penitent pilgrims atoning for their ancestors in Egypt who had rejected Christianity. As a result of the sins of their ancestors they were reduced to wandering the earth as pilgrims seeking charity.

Call me naive, but I think this an intelligent strategy, deficient as it may be in a moral sense. Incidentally, Roma morality is flexible on these sorts of matters: Non-Roma are seen as unclean and polluting, interactions with them are to be avoided, and theft and crimes against non-Roma are not morally wrong…

Assume, if only for a moment, that the Roma are not, as they are painted, a dependent lot of good–for-nothings, but a plucky minority who have been set upon by Europeans, though not set upon so badly that they wish to return to India. In terms of cultural theory, if the locals despise you and won’t let you participate, then you stick to your own kind and your own ways, and do the jobs the locals will not do or cannot do, and charge them the highest prices they can afford. On that account, the Roma should have gone on to great things: specialist crafts, entertainment, controlling the music business, money-lending, gambling, casinos and the like. Their schools should have been hothouses of talent. Indeed, they should have turned out like European Jews.

On the contrary, assessments of their abilities are uniformly low. Cvorovic explains that Roma children are assessed pre-school, and about two thirds diagnosed with “light mental retardation”. She gathers together published intelligence results, mostly using Wechsler tests, on reasonably sized samples and with local populations as comparison groups. After some 8 centuries one ought to be able to put aside the notion that the results are due to delayed acculturation. Adult Roma have intelligence scores very similar to the South Asian stock from which they separated centuries ago. Integration was not sought, and successfully rejected when imposed, programs of improvement failing to have any impact, even under strict Communist command.

For a wide variety of samples the average adult IQs are in the IQ 70 range. There is variation in terms of the countries assessed but as a rule of thumb the scores appear to be two standard deviations below the local norms. This is a very sizeable difference….

Scholastic attainments are usually 1 standard deviation below the mean. However, Roma children seem to be street wise, particularly on their home territories, and observation not investigated further. Their poor scholarship seems to be due to a mixture of low ability and a strong belief that education beyond primary school is of no interest or benefit. Their behaviour in school is often very disruptive. The table below shows English data for school exclusion…

To my mind it shows that if a group of immigrants stick to their own extended family for marriage partners, restrict contact with the host population to the absolute minimum, and stick to their own cultural practices, there is almost zero impact from living in Europe for almost 8 centuries. The climate has done nothing detectable to them for 32 generations, nor has the spurned European culture rubbed off on them by some osmotic process.

The contrast with European Jews is instructive: both are minorities with distinctive cultures and world views; both have inbred to some degree; both have been subject to prejudice, ostracism and very much worse; both have struggled to find a niche in Europe, and yet both have (mostly) remained in Europe. However, there the similarities end, and the differences multiply. European Jews venerated scholarship, the Roma cannot see its purpose. Jews made themselves useful at the highest levels of the economy, barely tolerated but sourly respected for their financial and scholarly acumen. Gypsies made themselves resented at the lowest levels of the economy (though some recently became metal recycling millionaires after the fall of Communist heavy industry) and little respected for wheeling and dealing. Here is a thematic apperception test: what made the difference?

Perhaps it was only a difference in root stock: Roma from India, Jews from Italy.

Although they have made very modest contributions to European culture, and even less to the economy, there is one way the Roma have met with contemporary approval: they have maintained their genetic and cultural purity for roughly 32 generations, the essence of multiculturalism.

Tony Blair and Marco Rubio: Conspiracies of Silence on Immigration

Comments to Steve Sailer:

* When you land at Heathrow these days, it is like you have arrived in a Third World port. You would never know it was a nation of white British people. Worse, the kind of Third Worlders you see there – you know right away that 95% of them are on welfare, mooching off the British system.

* Back in 2013 Power Line’s Paul Mirengoff revealed that Rubio told Bret Baier that he would appear on Special Report but not if Jeff Sessions was on at the same time.

Had the pleasure of calling Michael Medved’s radio show around the end of 2013 and nominating Rubio for “Loser of the Year.” Explained to Medved that Rubio was a traitor to the country. I cited the Supreme Court, Cramer (1945) to define treason; “an act which weakens or tends to weaken the power of the [United States]. . .”

Told an agitated Rubio-loving Medved that the former senior editor of National Review, Peter Brimelow, would probably agree that Rubio was a traitor. Medved cut my mike and stated, “On the subject of immigration, Peter Brimelow is hysterical.”

* I add sugar and cream to my coffee, sometimes a little more cream, sometimes a little more sugar , but I never piss in my coffee. That is what these “multiculturalists” do. Sure, your piss used to be coffee but isn’t now. Adding it to your coffee does nothing good. Opening your borders to whomever does nothing good for your country.

* And it’s almost as if Big Business is paying these politicians to cram as many immigrants into the West as possible. But the pundits don’t like to talk about WHY this is the case.

* How does one get ahead in a profession which is dependent upon people voting for you do so by doing stuff which is unpopular? Is it the promise of being made a multi-millionaire after you leave office? And if so, from whom does this money come? Soros? An amalgamation of the folks we see at Davos every year? The captains of industry who benefit from cheap labor? If this is the case, what’s the breakdown of Blair’s income and lifestyle since he left office?

Or is it that the English electorate is heavily brainwashed to believe opposition to multiculturalism is “racist” and therefore unacceptable?

* The people of Europe, in such countries Germany, France, Sweden, Belgium, Britain etc, during the 1970′s and 1980′s would talk about the biggest problems and issues facing their societies. During this time, it might have been the Cold War, the Berlin Wall, or lack of economic growth. But no, in your local cafes and on your street corners, you would here a conversation like this.

Bob: “Hey John, what is the biggest problem we face today?”
John: “Hmm….I don’t know, Bob, what do you think?”
Bob: “Our biggest problem is that we don’t have enough inbred Pakistani goat herders in our country.”
John: “That right, Bob! I never thought of that before, but that is a huge problem!”
Bob: “I hear that the people are bringing this issue up more and more, but our politicians are slow to get the message, but if we persist we can eventually make the them see the light.”
John: “Exactly, soon everyone will see that our lack of inbred Pakistani goat herders as a huge problem, but convincing the politicians will take time.”

So eventually the people rose up and demanded the importation of millions of inbred Muslims, the politicians were wary at first, but eventually caved to popular demand. All these countries(Germany, France, Sweden, Belgium, Britain) are democracies so this process could not have happened any other way.

* Big Business wants more profit.

Mass immigration (legal and illegal) brings more profit to Big Business.

Big Business uses business profit to fund both the media and politicians.
Therefore both the media and politicians defend immigrants and facilitate more immigration, both legal and illegal.

This is the causal chain behind all of this, these bills, the media propaganda, the lax enforcement of immigration laws, etc etc.

If we don’t understand the forces in play, then this sort of political activism is just Cargo Cult activism. What is an example of conservative cargo cult activism? Believing that pro-immigration forces are just out to get more Democratic voters and that the GOP politicians are just too stupid to do anything about it. Now what internet blogger pundit has been pushing that line of cargo cult baloney for years now?

* Barbara Margolis Roche has a God-given duty to “Heal the World” and “Be a Light unto the Nations”.

This duty transcends all other national duties. Umm, except for one transcendent nation, that is.

Always remember, she is doing it for our own good.

“Cool Britannia!”

* “The daughter of Barnet and Hanna Margolis, she was educated at the Jews Free School, Camden Town and Lady Margaret Hall, Oxford where she read Philosophy, Politics and Economics. She trained to be a barrister and was called to the bar at the Middle Temple, 1977.”

And yet neither she nor the community college candidate Rubio are the real enemy. They both act in their ethnic self-interest. Or at least it is what superficially appears to be their ethnic self-interest (fuller understanding would show their behavior self-destructive). The real enemy and deadly threat to our survival both cultural and biological is the Tony Blair or George Bush. These are our own, chosen to lead and protect us, expected to safeguard our legacy and ensure a future for our children, who then act exclusively as agents for other (alien) groups. We are not hurt by other groups pursuing their own interests and fair competition, this makes us all stronger and better. But we will be a forgotten footnote in Chinese language texts in 2216CE if we don’t stop supporting traitors like Blair and Bush.

* The (Obama) administration has decided to let immigrants with three sexually transmitted diseases known for causing sores or lesions on genitalia to enter the United States, an expansion of a previous decision to let in those with HIV.

* I’m coming more and more to the belief that humans have an innate requirement for religion (it’s built into the brain structure) and modern multicultural PC is very much a religion, complete with cathedrals (universities).

Maybe that explains the 60s. The old religions are no longer believed, so the young, in an ad-hoc shambolic way, invent a new religion, without even realizing that is what they are doing, though all the details aren’t necessarily worked out. The details don’t really matter. And of course there are always plenty of “wise men” around ready to take advantage and trying to impose as much as they can on the process.

* Feel bad immigrant story from Iceland. Iceland allows 2 Sri Lankans to settle in their country and it seems operate a garment business (work Icelanders won’t do). They were found to be keeping 3 slaves, so it is work Sri Lankans in Iceland won’t do.

* They don’t even try to hide their desire to flood the US with aliens of every shade and creed.

Perhaps our Jew supremacist friend here should consider whether a third world US is really in the interests of the Jews. I’m not convinced of this.

* I’m shocked, shocked.

The strange thing is, while that reinforces my opinion of Jews, I don’t hate her that much for that. She’s Jewish, that’s what Jews do. In a sense, I don’t think she’s much of a moral being: a pit bull kills a baby, do you hate the pit bull?

Tony Blair, on the other hand, is a traitor. He did it to his own people. He put Barbara Roche in her position.

* Interestingly Israel Zangwill, author of The Melting Pot, also went to the Jews Free School where a ‘house’ is named after him.

The largest Jewish school in Europe, the JFS was originally based in the West End, later it moved to Camden and then in 2002 to a new base in North West London, following the Jewish demographic shift which itself will in part be a response to immigration at replacement levels into London.

Roche – an eccentric rhinoceros of a character – bangs on tendentiously about Britain being a nation of immigrants but has never been asked why the JFS would never consider any kind of return to the East End, now dominated by Islamic new Britons.

* The fact is the more serfs the better for big business since it drives down wages and benefits. Whereas a stable and homogenous population equates to higher wages and bennies which big business hates.

Ramzpaul commented on this in one of his u-tube videos. He asked some executives why they were supporting open borders and they said profits. He pointed out it would eventually wreck the West for good, but the executives pointed they’d be all dead by then.

* Jews are easily smart enough to have agency. Jews have held higher positions in Britain and not done what Roche did.

* They have agency, but, for the most part, very little self-awareness. They don’t really understand that what they do is based on their ethnic hatred towards gentile whites and that it’s very very bad for gentile white nations, so bad that if they will eventually survive this, Jews might have to pay a very heavy price for this. And if gentile white nations won’t survive as such, how beneficial will a Muslim Europe be to Jews?

They never thought it through. Intelligent, but stupid, and blinded by hatred. I can’t get myself worked up over this. Their gentile white collaborators are much worse.

* The most salient aspect of Ms. Roche is not her Jewishness but being a White woman. Why wouldn’t she be obsessed with the religion of our time, PC-Diversity, and the sacredness of non-Whites? Why wouldn’t she be happy to screw over her Jewish male compatriots by importing lots of Jew-hating Pakistanis as “revenge” for the well known White beta male lack of sexiness, of which Jewish men are the champions, even more than Finns and Danes and Swedes?

We have the perfect storm — Christianity (and Judaism) being replaced by the noxious religion of the elites — “Diversity” and its PC enforcement; Big Business wanting lots and lots of cheap service labor at places like Wal-Mart and Tesco; Big Politics wanting lots and lots of voters for social welfare schemes ripping off natives in favor of “migrants” and the pure Globalist dynastic hatred of the historic nations by the Tony Blairs, Bill Clintons, Bush family, Hillary!, Obama, etc.

This last is key — politics is controlled by a series of dynasties, supported mostly by White women and non-Whites (Hail Mary’s exit polls from the Hillary!/Bernie SC thread show IIRC, 60/40 breakdown between White women in favor of Hillary! whereas White men voted the reverse nearly for Bernie — Bernie is a socialist but not a DYNAST and women love love love aristocracies and dynasties). These Dynasties operate not just in politics but in NGO/International areas — from things as diverse as FIFA to the EU unelected bureaucracy to the UN to the Red Cross or Greenpeace.

After the 1950s, Political/Cultural/Social affairs dynasties reasserted themselves in everything from Hollywood to politics to business. Reversing the 19th and up to mid Twentieth Century trend of democratization and meritocracy and middle class dominance. That this coincided with the rise of women is no accident. Rather than Jew-bashing (Jerry Seinfeld, Howard Stern, and Patton Oswalt are not your enemy though arguably Woody Allen is) it is more profitable to examine the role of female domination of the consumer culture through influencing or making most of the purchase decisions. Leading to a female-dominated culture that enhances and celebrates dynasties and globalism.

Indeed if Steve Sailer has one blind spot it is the inability to see that the War between the Sexes has of late little fraternization with the enemy as most White women are lurching towards the Black family formation: Single mother with two or more kids by different fathers.* White women mostly save the Upper Class don’t need** beta male support and are free to play the carousel and express their Emma Thompson-like hatred of lack of male sexiness (Thompson suggested that older White male Oscar voters be hunted down and killed).

*Bob Marley had three different women give birth to his illegitimate kids in the same month. That is the model all but the most upper class White women are moving to per Charles Murray’s “Coming Apart.”

**The most Upper Class White women seethe with resentment at the lack of sexiness in their mates who nevertheless provide “Summer” as a verb involving the Hamptons not a season of the year. They generally remain married but are not happy with their husbands lack of male dominance and charisma. As Upper Class White women they drive the agenda of the Yankee/Puritan class as they have since the Salem Witch Trials and Prohibition and Mothers Against Drunk Driving.

* The Daily Mail article on Tony Blair is awesome. Simply must reading, even if you already know a lot of the details. Remarkable stuff in there on Tony’s personal klutziness and technical/domestic incompetence, a feature of contemporary elites. Also entertaining are the pictures of Tony’s personal assistant (nudge nudge, wink wink) Anji Hunter, who looks remarkably like the character Amelia Bly (played by Kim Cattrall) in Roman Polanski’s The Ghost Writer.

BTW, Steve once reviewed The Ghost Writer, a film starring Pierce Brosnan as a British Prime Minister who might as well have a nametag reading Tony Blair. (That was Roger Ebert’s description IIRC.) That film is looking better in retrospect.

* It seems to me that Jewish antipathy to whatever society they live in is a way of remaining distinct as a race (it doesn’t necessarily mean that they’re conscious of that). They’re a people who would easily blend and disappear into the gene pool of any white population if there were no friction between them and the rest. Consider all the other outsiders who came to Europe in small numbers over the millennia – Arabs, Huns, Mongols, etc. The only trace left of them is the tiny admixture of their genes in the general population. Hostility towards the indigenous population has an evolutionary function in and of itself.

* I remember that Andrea Dworkin supposedly disagreed with how the hard life in Israel made tough men out of a subset of the population, as opposed to the effete Woody Allen type that she preferred society would mold. Say what you will, but Netanyahu, Ehud Barak, Moshe Dayan are not your ordinary Academic or liberal profession type of Jew. Maybe Ms. Roche would do well to move to Israel and be among more testosterone laden members of her group. I think part of the early argumentation for Zionism was that it would force Jews to assume all roles in society, including protector, and thereby regenerate the race after its many years in the (sometimes self-imposed) ghetto, where they bred themselves into a high caste living in other peoples’ societies. It’s certainly one reason to support the state of Israel, even admire its sheer determination and its accomplishments within that sea of mediocrity.

* I’m an American Jew who thinks that people like Barbara Roche are crazy. Unfortunately, many Jews are sympathetic to mass immigration from the third world, but not all of us are. Mass immigration could really be a disaster for the West that will not spare us. I hope that politically liberal Jews realize this before it’s too late, but the psychological trauma of the Holocaust still exerts a lot of influence on opinions about immigration.

* We Jews don’t all have ethnic hatred for gentile whites, not even the immigration enthusiasts. There is common conventional wisdom among liberal Jews that multi-ethnic societies are safer for Jews than mono-ethnic societies. I strongly suspect that Jewish pro-immigrationists focus on the good for Jews part and don’t even consider that it might be bad for non-Jewish whites. I consider that a major deficiency in the conventional wisdom, and I think that lack of attention to the types of immigrants allowed to come to the West is another deficiency. Given where most of the immigrants to Europe are coming from, mass immigration is likely to be disastrous for European Jews and native European gentiles alike.

* Non-Orthodox American Jews are in the process of blending in to the larger population, supported by an intermarriage rate that is over 50%. The British Jewish community has a higher percentage who adhere to Orthodoxy, but the smaller numbers of secular and liberal Jews in the UK have also started to intermarry. One hundred years from now, the only Jews left will be Orthodox.

Steve Sailer: Rubio, Cruz Denounce Trump for Failing to Denounce KKK, Bavarian Illuminati, and Knights Templar

Comments to Steve Sailer:

* Cruz and Rubio are getting more and more ridiculous as they watch their “presidential” hopes drain away. As typical cuckservatives notice how they go straight to the Democratic Party playbook of name calling – racist! – xenophobe! – despicable! – abhorrent!
They are both to stupid to realize that using the Democrat’s playbook only helps Trump with the voters.

* More point-and-sputter guilt-by-association. What Trump should do is say “Look, candidates get endorsed by all sorts of people. I’m not beholden to the desires of David Duke or anyone else. If he votes for me that’s his business. I welcome all votes, as
any honest politician would admit to. Only a fool would turn down political support.”

Not that David Duke says anything all that bad anyway. His antipathy towards Jews is comparable to mainstream antipathy towards white goyim.

* This pissy name calling that is occurring now in the Republican primary is nothing compared to what will occur in the general election. It will be non-stop race baiting / charges of sexism lobbed by Hillary and her surrogates. The fun part is that not only does the Donald seem unfazed but that his supporters are as well. In fact, it seems to have the opposite effect. This is what the Democrats probably fear the most.

It is not an accident that Meghan Kelly tried this right out of the gate. Like everything about Trump, it is hard to tell if this miscue about the David Duke was contrived or accidental. He must have known this was coming at some point.

* Trump’s defense is that he is a NYC developer who gave Don King and Al Sharpton a helicopter ride, whose entire staff is Jewish and has a Jewish son in law and grandkid and has been twice named Israel Day Grand Marshall — how the heck was he supposed to know who David Duke was?

* Trump should hold a presser and say something about seeking the endorsement of every type of American group, from the NAACP to La Raza and the Log Cabin Republicans and #BLM and the SCLC and the KKK and John Birchers, homo and hetero, Moose, Elk, UAW, AFL-CIO, We are all Americans, all in this together. Something like that. It would be a big hit.

* As usual, the media is lying through its teeth. The entire premise is made up. Trump repudiated Duke immediately, and now, reasonably, is bristling at the ADL and SPLC’s attempt to force him to utter words. It’s their usual technique to humiliate people. “Workers of the World Unite” is not Trump’s style, and neo-Bolsheviks pushing him around could lead to some humor. This is their best card they’re playing, so we’ll see how it goes.

* Get ready for 24/7 Trump = Hitler for the next eight months.

* The media is focusing on Trump’s need to repudiate Duke’s support but has closed ranks on Hillary’s bizarre demand that the media not witness her boarding her campaign plane? What could explain her bizarre demand? I suspect that there was some form of medical emergency.

* Refusal to jump through media hoops which gives them the power to set the narrative. Trump made some statement on Duke a while ago, so a reporter (you know, someone who is supposed to be well versed in background material) already knows Trump’s position, but by constantly asking for Trump’s position, they keep a story alive in order to make “news” which isn’t exactly news.

If Fox News asked Obama to denounce Van Jones at every press conference Obama ever held, despite Van Jones, the communist, no longer working in the WH, the fact that Fox was asking for a denounciation wouldn’t make the question a legitimate news question, rather it would be a tool drawn from a propaganda toolchest, a question designed to reinforce the notion that Obama loves communists and communists love Obama.

* I’ve never understood why this line of reasoning has any traction whomever’s ox is gored.

Trump is the one running for office, and who would hold power. Not Duke. Isn’t it altogether good for the country that extremists of whatever variety endorse the democratic process as the means to achieving their objectives, regardless of how distasteful anyone else might find them?

While a proven moneymaker for the SPLC, we’re all better off without the reputation routine.

The news here is that even David Duke wants to catch the Trump wave.

* Nobody is pointing out what a crazy world it is where the biggest and richest hate group in America are are hounding Trump for not stating the obvious fact that he doesn’t agree with David Duke.

I remember MSM making a big deal of it in 1996 when Duke endorsed Pat Buchanan, seemingly harming Buchanan’s bid for the nomination. I hope things are different this time, and it looks that way so far – most Trump supporters couldn’t give a damn, by the looks of it.

* New York media types talk about “the KKK.” The KKK, they say. They always use the definite article. Notice that?

There is no “The” KKK, and there hasn’t been since the 1920s. A gaggle of mostly tiny groups have used that name in recent decades but there is nothing like a national organization. Talking in conspiratorial tones about “the” KKK is a mark of either serious ignorance or pure malice.

* Trump flirted with the Reform Party in 2000 and disavowed Duke back then.

What’s interesting and amusing is that Trump’s response was that he “know[s] nothing” about Duke, which of course harkens back to the Know Nothing Party, whose members would reply that they “know nothing” when asked about associations that they were familiar with.

* David Duke, a truly repulsive creature, has been on the fringes for decades and now CNN and the ADL want to make him a household name again. Great job.

Trump obviously was trying to make the point that he has absolutely nothing to do with Duke so he shouldn’t have to make any comments about him. Otherwise, he’ll be stuck playing this game endlessly.

* David Duke is sort of the Neil deGrasse Tyson of White Nationalism: he’s well-known by the public but not one of the ground–breakers in his field. They’re both popularizers and creatures of the media more than anything.

* As far as I know, there’s no copyright on the Klan name, so anyone can set up a chapter with its own rules. As the name does have a strong attraction for certain types of people, I suspect many of the chapters are set up by federal agents or informers in order to attract these people and keep them under surveillance.

* On Twitter, the other big news is that vile homunculus Alex Pareene and his fellow Gawkerites got Trump..or whoever runs his Twitter account..to retweet a saying of Mussolini, on an account attributable to “ilduce2016.” They are trumpeting (pun intended) this as a big ‘gotcha’ moment, getting Trump to agree with Mussolini. By their own admission they’ve been running this account since December, and this is their first ‘ bite.’ It’s a pretty anodyne quote, “Better to live a day as a lion than 100 years as a sheep,” and one that a lot of men, especially alpha “doers” like Trump would agree with, anyway. But somehow, according to the mental dwarf Pareene, it shows Trump’s fascism.

I suspect that a lot of the old “Journolisters” have decided that they are going to try to undermine Trump with a lot of little “gotcha” moments like this, so we should expect to see more of this BS.

* Trump should ask the media why they give Clinton a pass on appearing with the BLM bigots.

* “Condemning David Duke and the Ku Klux Klan at every opportunity should be the easiest thing anyone can do,” said Heidi Beirich of the Southern Poverty Law Center.

Strictly speaking, you have an opportunity to condemn David Duke every time there’s a pause in the conversation, so that doesn’t seem like the easiest thing to do by a long shot. But I guess until someone does that, the SPLC reserves the right to call anyone a racist.

* I have to say I’m really impressed with how Trump handles this question. It reminds me of how he handled Ali G — just no patience for the BS of it. It couldn’t be more obvious that he thinks the whole denouncing thing is as stupid as it gets.

* Kudos to the commenter here a couple weeks back who joked that Trump was on his way to reconstructing the Know Nothing party. Now, as Jonathan Chait noted today, Trump’s responding to these questions with “I know nothing…”

* I’d wager David Duke will not have an open-invitation to the Trump White House the way Al Sharpton currently does.

Is David Duke responsible for getting people killed has is Al Sharpton? Does David Duke have access to the media and seats of power as does Sharpton? Is Duke anywhere near as vile and hateful?

* I’m always somewhat surprised by otherwise intelligent people who go insane at the thought of climate change. I’m a rational person. The evidence for man made climate change is (IMO) far stronger than the evidence against. I also believe that the evidence for HDB is far stronger than the evidence against. So, until evidence changes, I believe them both. I’d honestly prefer that they both be wrong (it would give me a lot more hope for the future) but I’m not going to let my personal preferences override what I see to be fairly convincing evidence.

* I hope the Trump movement becomes strong enough to have McCain, McConnell, and Graham recalled from office. Then after that the rest of the cuckservatives will fall in line.

* I saw him speak at the rally today; his accent is so thick as to be almost incomprehensible and his speech was mediocre at best.

Compare to the incredible, mesmerizingly-high-energy Trump/Christie press conference.

Sessions is great as a Senator or in the cabinet. Not as a running-mate.

* I think Sessions is the best VP insurance Trump could buy. He’s a hardliner on immigration and has proven it. Therefore, if the TPTB take a shot at Trump, they’re only replacing him with a dude who will follow through on Trump’s plans.

Christie, however, would be a bad choice, since he would not do anything Trump promises on immigration, so TPTB wouldn’t mind bumping off Trump for him.

Trump let’s Sessions run the legislative interference on his immigration plans while he does the rest via executive orders.

All he needs now is a younger, hungrier dude who is proven hardline on immigration to be Homeland Security dude. Then he can get some namby-pamby career pol to be his Secretary of State to go around smoothing over his immigration hardlines to Mexico, Europe, and Central America.

He can also make Cruz AG, although that’s a bit dangerous, since Cruz may use it to block Trump’s actions and make himself the NY Times favorite “maverick” Republican.

Sessions for VP. Who for Homeland Security?

P.S. Christie might make a good Sec of State; as a former lobbyist, he’s very good at schmoozing. Or he could be AG (he’s a former US Attorney), since, but again, Trump has to weigh the possibility of him turning on him for NY Times points.

* Sessions ALONE held off Mitch McConnell and his Amnesties. He’s Horatio at the Bridge and a national hero and treasure. [Yes I AM a single issue voter — the border.]

I love Trump. But he has to complete the sale to White women, and particularly enough Upper Class White women who seemed in the Exit Polls for SC to be really on Hillary!s bandwagon.

Hopefully he can connect the dots for Upper Class White women — enough Open Borders and hordes of Muslim men will be pawing or raping them enabled by mass flash mobs via smartphones. As Brenda Walker noted in Germany the other day. Sure Upper Class White women are in an eternal moral outrage over the lower classes not behaving, and needing a good dose of moral lecture, but do they really want to have to have bodyguards to venture out anywhere? Given that retail shopping in person is a big Upper Class White women thing, see Sex and the City, that’s a good selling point for Trump.

Senator Sessions Endorses Trump

Comments to Steve Sailer:

* This is a BFD! Trump is really assembling a coalition of both flanks of the GOP. And there is nobody stronger than Sessions on immigration. May Trump win big!

PS: CNN and MSNBC carrying Trump’s massive rally in Huntsville live. But not Fox.

* Meanwhile the news reported that McCain and Mitch McConnell are planning to wrest the nomination away from Trump by “united” action of Republican legislators in the Senate and House and anoint Boy Rubio as the nominee at the Convention.

* The thing about Sessions is it really hurts the cause of those who say Trump will flip on immigration.

I’d rather Sessions be Homeland Security than AG.

* Keep Sessions exactly where he is.

He is the conscience of the Senate. Otherwise Mitch McConnell and his ilk would throw white America under the bus in a heartbeat.

* Rep Tulsi Gabbard endorsed Sanders because Hillary is nuts. It may be possible she would endorse Trump against Clinton as she has one issue, best Commander in Chief.

DNC vice chair resigns, endorses Sanders, blasts Clinton’s “interventionist, regime change policies.”

* They’re not necessarily opposed–neocons and paleocons are different groups that don’t overlap, but you can be pro-invade the world and anti-invite the world. There’s nothing logically connecting one to the other. Explain to me why being pro-life means opposing gun control, why supporting environmental regulation means you support gay marriage, or, for our local people, why you can’t believe in HBD and global climate change? (Anatoly Karlin does.)

* Palin is a player. I’m surprised that she still has that access. Good for her. Good for Trump in recognizing her. The thing with Palin, which is evident to anyone who examines the entirety of her career, is her view has remained consistent on the relationship a politician has to the people. She was a demon against vested interests in Alaska. Sessions is criticizing the “Masters of the Universe.” Trump is firing on all cylinders against the moneyed elites who subvert government in order to direct benefits to themselves. The fact that Trump is aligning with people like Palin and Sessions reduces my skepticism on whether he’s exploiting an ignored audience and after securing their support will betray them. He doesn’t need to have a meeting of the minds with Palin and Sessions in order to take his positions. He might be playing them too, but at some point the conspiracies within conspiracies analysis has to give way to Occam’s Razor.

Palin resurrecting her reputation would be sweet justice and a massive middle finger to the elites who belittled her.

* Pull quote at top of Drudge from Sessions statement is ‘bust up the oligarchy’ !! antisemitic, amirite?

* Did anyone just see the Chris Rock Oscar monologue? Holy crap, I was not expecting that all! It had some of the most “HBD-influenced” commentary I have ever seen in a mainstream media event. I never thought I would hear that Rocky/Star Wars joke on TV! Are we living through the death throes of PC?

* Some went over the National Review and collected everyone’s belt and shoelaces. There was an orgy of Trump bashing this morning as they repeating the prepared lines about Trump being a mafia Nazi klansman.

I suspect someone was sent out to buy purple shrouds and Nike sneakers for the “staff meeting” tomorrow.

* Professional (sort of) black lady Melissa Harris-Perry race-hustles herself out of a job.

MSNBC has severed ties with Melissa Harris-Perry after the host sent a critical email. Here’s what happened between the network and the show host. (Monica Akhtar/The Washington Post)
By Paul Farhi February 28 at 11:29 AM
MSNBC has parted ways with host Melissa Harris-Perry after she complained about preemptions of her weekend program and implied that there was a racial aspect to the cable-news network’s treatment, insiders at MSNBC said.

Harris-Perry refused to appear on her program Saturday morning, telling her co-workers in an email that she felt “worthless” to the NBC-owned network. “I will not be used as a tool for their purposes,” wrote Harris-Perry, who is African American. “I am not a token, mammy or little brown bobble head. I am not owned by [NBC executives] or MSNBC. I love our show. I want it back.”

* Glenn [Beck] should be able to fast for quite awhile before the effect is noticeable.

* I should also add that putting a hardline military guy as Homeland Security would do it. If Stanley McCrystal is hardline on immigration, put him as Homeland Sec and watch him execute the Trump/Sessions plan and install other plans designed to secure the American people from foreign incursion. (Also, McCrystal as the pick would seriously needle Obama and Biden on their way out the door)

The fact that a military person isn’t the default pic for Homeland Security is troubling enough. It’s a job suited for a military mindset: securing borders, establishing checkpoints for foreign entries, dealing with illegal infiltrators, a non-civilian court system run by its own rules with only minimal constitutional intervention (USCMJ courts and immigration courts), vetting entries, spying, evaluating intelligence reports…..this is stuff the military is suited for.
