Why Harris-Cheney Matters
by William Kristol
Let’s not kid ourselves: The current moment is depressing.
The character of a Trump second term—both authoritarian and anti-constitutional, dangerous and squalid—has become as clear as could be. Yet Donald Trump is going to get the votes of nearly half the American electorate. Even if Trump falls short two weeks from now, the extent of his support casts a large shadow over our hopes for the future.
Having said that, I hasten to remind one and all that it’s critically important that Trump does fall short, that he does lose. And it is heartening that against the prospect of a Trump victory, some Republicans and independents have rallied to Kamala Harris’s side. Equally heartening is that Harris has welcomed these allies to the common cause.
Sitting side-by-side yesterday, Liz Cheney and Vice President Harris emphasized a joint commitment to defending the rule of law, the Constitution, the international order, and basic decency.
I don’t think anyone quoted Edmund Burke, but they could have: “When bad men combine, the good must associate; else they will fall one by one, an unpitied sacrifice in a contemptible struggle.”

It is rip-roaringly HILARIOUS to see you in bed with Liz Cheney.

Meanwhile, Tulsi Gabbard is now officially a Republican.
You can keep Kinzinger, Cheney, Bill Kristol, David French and Charlie Sykes. We came out waayyy ahead on that deal.

HI Dope1.....
We've never ever ever lectured each other.
And, all seriousness I. am appreciative that the multiple times I've wandered off the reservation you've to chewed me out for it ----showing once again that on our side, individual thought, (something Nazis and Taliban don't allow) is alive and well. This is far different from how the Sheep can only parrot what the latest Liberal talking point is, or how the TMF Left pooped all over Hochizen for the sin of supporting Hillary over Obama.
So this is NOT lecturing or anything even close, rather, just asking you to consider----
Bill Kristol. He's another user, vulture, bloodsucker, manipulative NeoCon. And NeoCons are merely Liberals who have been mugged before and in other cases,NeoCons are Israeli mules. Again, fully respect your thoughts on Israel diverge from mine.
All I am saying - look - they used us. NeoCon Liberals used us. They did flag waving, they got us into that Iraq War - something President Reagan would've belted all of us in the woodshed over. Oh and in the process we gave the Oval Office to Obama.
In return, Kristol was one of the first to go against us on anything from tax cuts to other policies. And now, look, him and Cheney - hell bent on more wars with Iran, or NATO wars for Ukraine one day again drop the Right like a bad habit.
All I ask is keep that in back of your mind.
One day, a "surprise" attack will happen to America again - thanks to NeoCon interventionism and due to America being Israel's mule and the Kristol crowd will be back, waving flags. Woke Defense will get a trillion dollar bonus. Non-401K kids will come back injured, or not come back at all.
I say to heck with them. Let them stay on the Left where they belong.
I for one am sick of supporting those who can't stand us.

Grifters, all of them. They and the left deserve each other.
