Simply fantastic article that defines the nature of the movement against the GOP nominee from establishment and the far right fringe of the party.
Yes. The disdain for the 'far right fringe' is so palpable among both the Hildabeast camps and the Trump camps. It's an interesting choice of words considering that the Progressive Leftists also use the same language to describe principled Conservatives.
But have no fear. Trump has single-handedly eliminated the 'far right fringe' from the GOP as having any relevance in your party. He has done both Hillary and the Establishment leadership a service and given them exactly what they both wanted: an exiled bloc of Christian Conservatives that they were embarrassed to have in their party. The very people Trump said he did not need nor want their support to win. So rejoice.
You got what you wanted.
This sense of moral superiority that overrides common sense and any semblance of practicality,
That's what really galls the Trump Militant, the same as it does the secular hedonists. How DARE ANYONE abide by and live according to the principles which govern them in matters of civics and society! It is PRACTICAL to engage in sinful behavior - because everyone else is doing it. It is also practical to discard your principles in order to give a rabid minority what it demands in terms of a king and the things he promises. Because to such people, it is common sense to abandon your faith, your principles and your God in order to make men your rulers and apply their dictates to your lives.
And if you dare to refuse while claiming principles do not permit you to do that which is anathema to your core - why then - you are guilty of being morally superior - which is the most grievous of sins to a people who are governed by the whims of men and self.
is precisely what will put Hillary Clinton in the White House thus destroy conservatism for a generation...at a minimum.
Trump has accomplished that already. Nearly all by himself. And the Trump Militant are busy redefining and resculpting Conservatism into the image of Trump whilst having paved the way for The Mao Pantsuit to her coronation. The population at large, so disgusted with Trump, will never question the results of the sElection in November. This is what happens in a post-Constitutional republic when it has been overthrown in a velvet coup to the cheers of a dependent population.
The refuge argument of the Moral Narcissist...that anyone not under the thrall of moral narcissism is without morals entirely...ensures defeat in every election for Republicans as a party.
Laughable and definitely demagoguery at best. The GOP ensures it's defeat every single time it supports the Democrat agenda and supports Liberals and Leftists to the exclusion of actual Conservatives whom are ostracized and demeaned to choral chants of derision alongside Democrat brethren.
It is the fool and the liberal plant that says moral absolutists are the cause of the demise of the GOP. The Republican party has no principles and stands for nothing but their own seats of power and influence - even if it is second string to the Left. THEY are the ones who said they would run Jeb against the Base. Trump followed with his own pledge that he did not need the Conservative base, nor wanted their support in order to win.
So the Establishment, along with Trump and his hordes have successfully run out of their party - the very "moral narcissists" whom they now berate and demand cast their votes for their demagogue prince, and are affrighted at the reality that their anointed cannot "win" without overwhelming support from the very Moral Supremacists they hate and have blamed in advance for their Chosen's defeat.
Black and white rule their universe in exclusivity and they are the White Knights of their own holy truth
Which makes my entire point that you people actually HATE that which we are governed by. That we would take the following scripture of black and white absolute at face value and live by it drives you out of your minds with rage:
This day I call the heavens and the earth as witnesses against you that I have set before you life and death, blessings and curses. Now choose life, so that you and your children may live" - Deuteronomy 30:19Black and white absolutes such as this DO rule our universe and principles, which is what the Trump Militant and the Progressive Left cannot stand in any capacity. How dare we reject pragmatism and live by every word that proceeds from the Mouth of God and uphold the Constitution that preserves our liberties from the very government they want to install a king.
....putting all others in the category of immoral boobs and dupes.
Only people with a seared conscience assume such things. It's the how and why so many Christian men ended up martyrs at the hands of their own people.
Yes, its absurd and irrational…
Morality and Godly principles are always seen as foolish by the men of this world. God's ways are always regarded as absurd and irrational. But thinking yourselves wise, you become fools.
So within the GOP, not only must we fight globalism and its inherent evils...now we must combat the moral narcissists with their litmus tests and surety that the good must always be the enemy of the perfect. A tough fight indeed, but well worth the cost of struggle.
Will there be yellow stars and boxcars going East for us in your desired utopia, void of us "moral narcissists'????
In this, I see you people as no different than the radical Marxist Left. Certainly you behave like them.
