Hannity vs. Beck: Can Conservatives Trust Trump?
« on: August 19, 2015, 01:05:56 am »

Before you watch the clip, go read Glenn Beck's incredulous challenge to Hannity et al, pleading for a genuine explanation for why some high-profile conservative leaders are boosting an infamous self-promoter with such a long history of supporting Democrats and holding very liberal positions. Hannity responded in a lengthy essay posted on his website, culminating in last night's on-air conversation.

I have been asking the same questions Beck is.   I can understand Ann Coulter going all  goo goo over Trump like a teenage  girl who got a kiss from Justin Bieber. They are two of a kind.     And Hannity, he's is all about his show and ratings, and Trump makes good TV, which is why he is.......... Well for a lack of a better way to say it, all  goo goo over Trump like a teenage  girl who got a kiss from Justin Bieber.

Beck brings about good observations and makes some very valid points.  The primaries are months away, but "The Donald" has stated if he doesn't win the primary and get the GOP nomination he will run 3rd party.  His comment was pretty straightforward. I think that's the fear.  Not so much that Trump will get in, but that if he doesn't he will likely split the GOP vote and we lose to the DEMS.

We have no idea at this point if Hillary will even stay in the race.  It is likely that either Biden or Warren will jump into the race if she steps down.


I Believe in the United States of America as a Government of the people, by the people, for the people; whose just powers are derived from the consent of the governed; a democracy in a republic; a sovereign nation of many sovereign states; a perfect union one and inseparable; established upon those principles of freedom, equality, justice and humanity for which American patriots sacrificed their lives and fortunes.  I therefore believe it is my duty to my country to love it; to support its Constitution; to obey its laws to respect its flag; and to defend it against all enemies.

Conservatives who can't stomach Trump see an opportunistic shape-shifter who does and says whatever he believes will garner favor and attention at any given moment.  They also see someone with no core ideology, with a muddled, incoherent set of policy preferences. (As of this writing, Trump's "positions" page on his website features...exactly one position statement).  They see someone whose thin-skinned arrogance manifests itself in an endless string of petty insults and feuds, and whose self-serving pronouncements are too often rooted in little more than pure fantasy.  Finally, they see a man who is leading the crowded Republican field, commanding roughly one-quarter of the vote, but whose favorability numbers are atrocious -- with women, with independents and with voters overall

Extremely thought provoking article.  Well worth watching the video.  Thank you for posting it.

Beck and those who agree with him have basically stated "we are no longer a nation of laws".
Why?  Well, because I'm a bastard, that's why.
