Comments to Steve Sailer<\/a>:<\/p>\n

* Agreed: if President Trump does nothing but build a proper fence, deport most of the illegals, and restore law and order to our policy of immigration, I wouldn\u2019t give a hoot if he spent the rest of his term hawking shirt-and-tie sets from the Rose Garden.<\/p>\n

* I don\u2019t think he\u2019s much of a small-government conservative, and I\u2019m not totally sure whether he\u2019s an authentic nationalist either\u2013 he seems like a Davos Man\/Joe the Plumber hybrid which is now counterintuitively a very successful strain in the present media culture. I just tell all the creeps that he\u2019s my candidate for sick enjoyment\u2019s sake; I like to see the paroxysms, pointing & sputtering with which the Harvard\/Stanford\/Columbia brown-nosers become biblically stricken, just by Trump\u2019s continued domination of column inches\u2026 This sad partnership of no-life turtlenecked hipsters and elderly geeks, who chatter about political intrigue from the moment they wake up until when they pass out at their iPads for the evening, has metamorphosed into wailing babies before our eyes. They just can\u2019t stand not getting what they want. Grand prize to George F. Will. Screw them. To quote Stanley Ann Dunham \u201cthey are NOT my people.\u201d Oh yeah\u2013 I also agree in the main on Trump\u2019s stated thoughts regarding skilled worker visas, E-Verify, border enforcement\u2026 I\u2019ll worry later if he\u2019s the best candidate to deliver on those.<\/p>\n

* After the last few brushes with Republican endorsed amnesty, which had the conservative constituents melting the phone lines of congress, most of us became single-issue-voters. That issue is the border and immigration. We want a defended border and immigration policy that benefits the populace, not the corporations.<\/p>\n

We have fought and refought this issue with Republicans in congress, and in doing so it has become clear that the once allied business sector of the USA is now a full on enemy of the American worker and the average American. Because Big Business dissolved the former alliance with social conservatives, we now wish to abolish the pro-corporate policies of Reagan and Bush. Tax em all to hell. Oh, they\u2019ll flee, you say? They already do. They show zero loyalty, so screw them. The only fiscal conservatives left are millionaires and billionaires.<\/p>\n

Trump has tapped into the single issue of immigration deliberately. He may betray us on that, and he may not. But either he will do what he says, or he will rend the Republican party (our corporate enemy) to shreds. Or both. It becomes a win-win-win situation. Viva Trump!<\/p>\n

* News stories are blasting Trump for not correcting someone who referred to the president as a Muslim as though he were obligated to rush in to protect Obama\u2019s honor. They\u2019re really scraping the barrel to come up with something to use against him.<\/p>\n

* Real conservative means wanting to ban abortion, cut taxes for the wealthy, and provoke land wars in Asia.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
