Don't You Wish NeverTrumps Would Just Go Away?By Brian JoondephWe are quite accustomed to the media and the left ginning up phony outrage as a means of virtue-signaling and attacking President Trump. Russian collusion is the standard, but it hasn't panned out as planned. Next in line are Stormy Daniels, Michael Cohen, Melania's shoes or jackets, Trump's tweets, and how many scoops of ice cream he gets for dessert.
This week, they are apoplectic over Trump calling out NATO members for freeloading off the largess of the United States, not paying their fair share for defense, and cutting side energy deals with Russia. Many so-called Republicans are outraged over Trump's candor, preferring the typical American president's approach of bowing low and grabbing one's ankles. That's what they call dignified and smart diplomacy.
It's not only the left constantly criticizing President Trump, but another even more bothersome group, as they should know better. NeverTrumps are an annoying group of supposed conservative Republicans outraged that Donald Trump won not only the GOP nomination, but also the actual election. Their fury grows, as Trump has been in office for over 500 days, and their efforts to turn Republicans against him have failed spectacularly.
In fact, at day 500, President Trump has the second highest level of support, 87 percent, within his own party going all the way back to the days of Truman. Only George W. Bush had a higher level of Republican support, 96 percent, at a similar time in his presidency, shortly after 9/11, when the country was more unified than it has been in recent history.
Trump is 10 percentage points higher than Reagan at 500 days and 8 points higher than Obama. So what are the NeverTrumps yapping about?
