Expect a Debacle

I keep a couple of conservative sources on my newsfeed to keep an eye on them. These are reliable, mainstream sources, by conservative standards, such that it makes sense to apply the standard I learned in college--is this rational and valid?--so it's not Limbaugh level stuff or "alt-right" rot. 

Most of these writers were opposed to Trump but they're realizing now that it's feeding time. They are losing their minds as they comprehend the opportunity they have to do the craziest shit they've ever dreamed of because Trump has bombed the intellectual landscape into oatmeal. 

A representative guy wants to obliterate everything Obama has done--the "pompous, liberal agenda" he "crammed down the throats of the American people during his first two years in office" and the rest. Now, do you detect contempt there and an unscholarly attitude and a certain animus? 

Tell me, is it possible that any conservative so-called think-tank or authority would ever come out and say that tax cuts for the rich aren't the cure for everything? The lefties I know are assuredly open minded about policy and really want to find answers that work. We are so screwed.

That's what it means. The American right-wing is completely entrenched and motivated and convinced that they are the keepers of the American flame no matter that the opposite is obviously true. They bankrupted the government and destroyed the economy and the middle class, to start.

Aw, shucks. But God is on their side so it's all okay and none of it matters and, by the way way, fuck all liberals to hell. We are so incredibly screwed. Despite all of their assaults our society endures but they are really gunning for it now. With the coming of Trump I think the end is near.
