"Trumpism, the archetypal grass-roots movement, is winning.”

Alright I’m going to need someone to define their terms here. wsj.com/articles/it-is…
WSJ seems to be defining “Trumpism” as talking about immigration and being a big jerk in public.

That’s… huh. nationalreview.com/2017/04/donald…
"Mr. Trump’s endorsement was important to Tom Esposito, 20, a Jacksonville University student active in the Florida Federation of College Republicans.”

I’m going to go out on a limb here + say that it’s hard to project what a party’s views are based on College Republicans.
“College conservatism” is a distinct thing — an attitude and a concept in and of itself. It’s not necessary the conservatism of a mid-career mom with two kids in elementary school.

I am so excited that the Wall Street Journal editorial board is finally getting on board with Black Lives Matter and finally reducing the power of police and the surveillance state, this is so exciting
Oh wait, hang on a second

But maybe this particular writer has stood strong for government oversight and civil liberties

Watching Die Hard for the first time. It is so obviously a Christmas movie I don’t understand why it’s even up for debate.
My mother in law was outraged that the police didn’t listen to McClane on the radio and also said that if this movie gets any more exciting we’ll need to break into the Christmas pudding.
Honestly the biggest victim so far is John McClane’s shirt. Why is he even wearing it still? What purpose is it serving?

Alright, I've got some thoughts on this, after a lot of contemplation and arguing. In short: the guardrails within and among conservative media and institutions are gone.
@benshapiro argued last week that cons were better at ousting bad elements (racists) than liberals. nationalreview.com/2018/08/conser…
Here are the problems with this assertion:
1.) If you have to continually purge your publications and institutions of white nationalists, that's not a sign of institutional wellbeing. "Good news: we got all of the rats out of the restaurant kitchen again!"

1. Someone's suddenly needing some alone time. Creepy Porn lawyer gets a double whammy today. Judge in the Stormy case may throw it out saying President has the right to free speech. Now it looks like his Kavanaugh witness was a 4-chan punking on him. Warning graphic in 2nd tweet
2. If this 4-chan posting's true, Avenatti got punked big time. One thing pointing to its authenticity, shortly after it posted, he locked down his twitter account. 😆🤣😂@_ImperatorRex_ @ThomasWictor @drawandstrike @hfinch61 @almostjingo @TheLastRefuge2

3. Then there is this other bit of news. The Judge is siding with @realDonaldTrump and is looking at tossing the Stormy Daniel's case of defamation. #Winning!

(1 of 3) #WINNING and #MAGA in action! Excerpts from an excellent editorial follow:

“President Trump is nowhere near as unpopular among minority voters as the biased mainstream media suggest. Why is that? In a word, jobs.”
(2 of 3) “Trump, it turns out, has been the most consequential president in history when it comes to minority employment.”

“The truth is, the ripping jobs growth that began when Trump entered office and picked up steam after his tax cuts has been good for everyone in America.”
(3 of 3) “When it comes to good news about minority employment, the Trump years are the best of times.”

Two inferences: Democrats are freaking out about it, and minority voters will reward Trump and the Republicans in November. Bank on it!

The rest here:

If you were lucky enough to get part of the 13% of the tax cut that went to bonuses and raises, better save it up for the coming price hikes and trade war.
