Sometimes revealing a communist is a little like taking off a Band-Aid. You’ve got to pick at the edges a little bit until you can get enough gripped to rip it off.
It has been a decade since Jonah Goldberg and I had our back-and-forth editorial debate about “modern republicanism.” [He lost both a massive number of readers and credibility.] In the years since, we are both exactly the same people; the only difference is – his mask has completely dropped and he’s no longer pretending.
In this brutally perfect appearance on his new network gig, CNN, Jonah Goldberg, the pontificating pustule of totalitarian elitism, declares the “small donor” influence in the Republican Party, ie. MAGA and working class grassroots support, is the problem for those (private club) corporate officers who have high-minded control.
...”I just also think that we are dealing with a time, where for a lot of people, there’s a lot of people cheering and self-congratulation about the rise of small donors a decade ago. And now small donors are actually one of the biggest problems for, well, democracy in the GOP. Because, um, large donors have a strategic view about moderation, who can win and who can’t. Small donors really are just venting their spleen with their credit card, and they lock candidates into positions that can hurt them in the general election.”…
.
There is a particular brand of GOPe hypocrisy around a worldview that spouts unbridled capitalism as the solution to all the economic woes [NOTE: in reality, they really don’t believe that, but they pretend not to be advocates of massive conglomerate corporatism], and yet they rail against the unwashed masses having a voice in the democratic process.
As our “Last Refuge” of liberty noted years ago, the ushers in conservative media were/are really closeted communists. Identically aligned and elite minded sanctimonious frauds, loading sheep onto intellectual cattle cars. The professional Republicans don’t believe in conserving anything other than the power structure that produces their affluence and influence.
Peel the skin off a professional Republican, and you will find a communist demanding you sit quietly, then insert vote, pull lever, take your pellet, shut up and leave the building. That’s who they are.
The best, and I do mean absolutely the best and greatest thing about Donald J. Trump, is how he forced all the professional Republican snipers to reveal their positions.
… “Don’t worry. We got this. We just need to convince the part of the crowd carrying the pitchforks, that the part of the crowd carrying the torches are trying to take their pitchforks away.“…
…”You organize Goldberg, Levin, Shapiro, Horowitz, Ingraham, Solomon, Hannity, Loesch and Beck. While we organize, Brennan, Stephanopoulos, Cooper, Burnett, Collins, Tapper, Maddow, Bash and Todd”…
Lib (1)Goldberg has been anti ronny his entire life; as is(2) GWB.
Jona as editor of NRO could not hide his glee when Ronny did not back GHWB,
What Goldberg doesn’t understand yet is the political class is going to get bounced out on its ass for stealing our vote.
Just a matter of time !
If they didn’t allow voting, he’d be out of a job just as he’s about to be anyway.
There’d be no need to play games anymore. What a moron.
“…is how he forced all the professional Republican snipers to reveal their positions.”
Wow, did he ever, plus he flushed the DeepStaters out, now we know much about them and they can be identified as a group, i.e., the 4th branch of government.

That was great, thanks. He is the chosen one for this time in history .
👍
President Trump LOVES his country. He is a man like no other!
May God grant him peace & protection.
Grubering Goldberg spills the beans. GOPe 100%.
Same story as the Tea Party…
Watch them all re Potus.
The best, and I do mean absolutely the best and greatest thing about Donald J. Trump, is how he forced all the professional Republican snipers to reveal their positions.
So well said SD.
The vision lingers of Noah Goldberg, George Will, Peggy Noonan, and Mona Charin drinking together at table in an empty diner lamenting on how they were once relevent.
Many others will soon join them.
I can just imagine this group on their NR Cruise, sitting at a table, waiting for someone to recognize who they used to pretend to be.
CBDCs will be a small donor extinction event.
I’d like to give Trump a cash gift rather than contribute to his campaign. Is this possible?
Try sending me a cash gift first, and see if anybody complains.
He is not asking you to send him cash personally that would only cause him trouble.
He is asking you to donate to his campaign and PAC where he can use it to fight.
Why wouldn’t you want to do that instead?
he doesnt want the deep state hacking trumps donors records and targetting him for supporting trump. actually, if we could all find a way back to cash on many aspects of commerce, it would drive these shitheads up the wall.
It won’t cause him any trouble. It’s a gift. Perfectly legal with no tax implications or reporting requirements up to $17,000 in 2023. He can use it for whatever he wants, including legal fees. Or he might just buy Melania some new shoes. His call.
Regardless of what Trump does with your gift, the GOP gets none of it, unless Trump decides to share it with them.

Anecdotally, this has been my conversation experience as well.
This is a good clip outlining exactly why there is such trepidation about allowing Trump on the ballot.
I have identified misses in the matrix for the 2020 election, normally when non white support surged for Trump in Dem strongholds. Think Miami, El Paso, Detroit.
Now imagine, suddenly, 10-20 million minorities who still call themselves Democrat jumping ship on a whim. They wouldn’t be able to account for it.
And yes, Trump won three states he was supposed to lose. They are NC, FL, and TX. Trump taking them required the surgical removal of AZ and GA, which are both very obvious due to the magnitude of what was needed to rip them off. –Seth Keshel

Hey Jonah, I got your “strategic view” right here. Take a look.
And Trump was right. Put some socks and pants on, you freakin’ slob.
I read these truthful lighting bringing posts today by Sundance, this one and the one about Georgia. I begin to wonder are we MAGA, America Firsters on a fools errand trying to take control of the RNC, GOPe and ultimately the Republicans in Congress and at the State level? I know the Dutchman is convinced it’s turning our way but on a days like this I wonder if 71 million President Trump voters should have left the Republican Party and started over? To me it’s President Trump or bust I will not vote for anyone else.
“Whether you align with Republicans or you choose to align with Democrats, the main thing to always remember is – they don’t care. Voters are not part of the RNC/DNC party construct. Voters are irrelevant. The interests of voters are not part of any discussion that takes place inside the private corporations.” – Sundance
As just an “irrelevant” voter I would prefer a party affiliation that is centered on voters not billionaire/millionaire donors and K-Street lobbyists! Can we really change the established Republican Party to be just for voters? Days like this I have my doubts?
Agree, this is a do or die moment. Come hell or high water we vote/write in Trump’s name on the ballot. After the crash heard around the world we reassemble and start an America First party. We already have 100 million people.
Like a scalpel we excise the cancerous tumor.
we should just group together start a new government and stop recognizing the old corrupt one.
And if Trump is not at the top of the ticket bc the GOPe has stolen it from him…and us…
We DO NOT give Mitch McConnell the Senate!
“Bolshevik!”
“No–I really mean it!”
”You organize Goldberg, Levin, Shapiro, Horowitz, Ingraham, Solomon, Hannity, Loesch and Beck.”
Can we throw in the names of Rich Lowry, Bill Kristol, George Will, Stephen Hayes, Neil Cavuto and Ed Morrissey into this mix, too?
Salem Media is the worst!
There are only about 5 contributors across all of their sites that are America First Patriots.
Jonah Goldberg must be pining for the good ol’ days of a property requirement for voting. Maybe he would go for a stock valuation requirement, or a corporate board position, etc.
Funny he should say that. Two or three years ago, I was on Facebook and I found a post from Graham asking for money. I replied that shouldn’t you be asking for votes instead of money? I remember when votes were an important part of elections. Now they just ask for the cash to fix it.
“Unfriendly people care only about themselves;
they lash out at common sense.
Fools have no interest in understanding;
they only want to air their own opinions.”
Isn’t it uncanny that a president called a liar by so many of his detractors has, as one of his signature accomplishments, been the chief cause of unmasking the deceptive pretensions of so many politicians and pundits. The truth will always win out.
The strange thing is Jonah wrote a good book describing much of the trouble we face today called Liberal Fascism. How does he not recognize that he has joinedup with the forces he used to deplore?
Dirty little secret: most political pundits don’t write their own books.
Trump Derangement Syndrome!
He does recognize it.
There are many “conservatives” that figure the Great Reset is going to happen. They are personally making the choice to be part of the New US Communist Party.
They are becoming willing members to maintain their status and comfortable lifestyle.
It’s not going to work out well for any of them.
This is what is obvious.
The GOP never cared about us and never did anything that represented our wants. They said they would.
PDJT went into the party that said the things that would be good for America, and he said he’d do them to point out they don’t even try. It exposed them.
Hostile takeover and more.
Well said Matt Kim !!
Oh good ! Willard’s niece doesn’t need to send all those solicitation letters anymore
to those of us not born and bred on champagne.
Death and Destruction to the Republicon Party, and to be inclusive, the Democommunist Party too.
Unfortunately, the Trump sunlight has revealed how very few are authentic. It was at least nice to believe the Republican Party was our home base, but now we know better… we are not represented.
If the Rs don’t clean house they risk it all in 2024+. The current old guard is killing our hopes of ever winning again.
I read the headline as ” …we still permit vomiting.”
Well, this is why DeSeaIslandsantis is letting the Insurance Racket ratchet up the larceny on Florida homeowners. The fastest way to De-MAGA-fy this State is to make it unaffordable for the Base to live here. We know what you are doing, ron!
Thank you, Jonah, as a member of the DC elite for explaining to the vast majority our nation’s citizens struggling to get by with something less than twice the country’s median income what we really need.
I suspect you need a flashlight to see what’s around you considering where your head is planted.
When I see these pigs in public I verbally abuse them.
It feels wonderful, give it a try.

This is off topic, but not really!
The water was turned off in Hawaii while folks were trying to save their homes. Even some FF said same!!!!
The Parasites who think they’re the Elite are in REAL trouble now, and don’t even realize it yet!
I’m not there, but I’m so mad I could spit! These people are a danger to society and need to be treated that way!!!
Blackrock is already putting bids on buying, they want to make it the first “Smart Island.” Insurance companies are refusing reimbursement so that developers can come in and swoop it up . Scum.
Jonah Goldbricker, a worthless con man Mama’s boy.
I don’t know why this came to mind, but the old joke: “What’s the last thing to go through your mind if you jump off a 20 story Building?” “Your ankles”! Seems Jonah jumped!
I’ve always said, Trump’s greatest legacy will be exposing the pretenders for who they really are. Down right shocking, even to a cynical so-and-so like myself, just how many that turned out to be. But my BS meter has been retuned and I can now spot the new pretenders who are cropping up and feeding from the grift trough.
“The professional Republicans don’t believe in conserving anything other than the power structure that produces their affluence and influence.”
We are reaching or have reached the end of the “conserving the power structure”. 32 Trillion in Debt, 32 Million of Illegals that have their hands out, and the collapse of the Blue areas of the country. They poisoned us with the Covid bioweapon, they poisoned us with the fake vaccine, and they are forcing economic change that leads to economic ruin.
The GOPe are dead men walking. When Trump wins, he will clean out the right half of the UniParty along with the whole of the Deep State. It is our only hope and it is a long shot at best.
Oy Vey, can Ben Shapiro be far behind Jonah Goldberg?????
Can’t stand that snarky little POS!
I don’t know any other political writer that can effectively mock a dishonest person with analogies or humorous descriptive comparisons like sundance can.
When he does, the recipient is always deserving of the “attention.”
This is what my county republican committee thinks the grassroots wants:
“We cordially invite you to attend our upcoming Patriot Ball – an evening of elegance and enchantment set to take place on September 23rd from 6:00 pm to 10:00 pm at the luxurious National Conference Center. This magical night will be filled with delectable dining, delightful dancing, dazzling entertainment, and a thrilling auction. Talented chefs will prepare a sumptuous feast to tantalize your taste buds, and our live DJ will keep you moving to the rhythm all night long. You’ll also be treated to exciting performances, sure to delight and amaze you.”
All for $139! What stolen election?
I was an NRO reader back at the turn of the century. I watched it get squishier and squishier as the 00’s went by. Then came the day they make Derb walk the plank. I walked with him, carrying with me the growing unease and false witness that I had begun to see and feel from the crew there.
They were paid to be relevant to and by the Big Money people, and they grew more in debt and hung by puppet strings each day. They continue to feed their obvious enormous appetites for narcissism and donuts, continue to mau-mau for money, and now Jonah’s flying the CNN flag.
These ‘Conservatives’ are soulless people now, with no heart and strings for brains. Everything any one of these washed up has-beens has to say evaporates into dust as soon as they open their gluttonous mouths. Dust and hot air.
The Jonahs, the Hannitys, the Ingrahams, the Nordlingers, the J Christian Adamses, the Byrons, the O’Reillys, all are spectral phantasms of conjured opinion now, djin in a bottle, in the back of a tiny ghetto storefront. They did much damage alone the way, may they continue their dissipation in eternal solitude. Good riddance, no one who matters is listening anymore.
Hey, here is the positive – go to Lucianne.com for another aggregator you can trust. It was created by Jonah’s! mom…
You hear some people start a conversation with “I hate to say it, but …” I don’t think I know what that means.
So instead, I’ll start this comment with, I don’t hate to say it, but I will try not to be hate-ful.
Almost everyone on this site knows who and what the Republican Party is made of. And known for a long time. But we continue to think that if we get enough true conservatives elected, we can start to turn things around. Ask yourself this question: do you really believe it?
I have another question: if the date is August the 15th, and you go to your refrigerator to pour a nice cold glass of milk to go with the fresh hot apple pie your mom baked for you, and you reach into the refrigerator and saw two partial gallons of milk on the shelf.
One was dated August 2nd. The other was dated August 7th. Which one would you drink? Would you gladly take the milk dated August 7th to drink with your hot apple pie? After all, it’s just the lesser of two evils.
Does that make sense to anyone here? I think not. Then how can you talk yourself into voting for ……
Nevermind, I’m not going to waste the time to finish asking this question. I think I’d be more disturbed with most of the answers.
OK then! Do you really want change? Are you really ready to sacrifice everything, even your life, your fortune, and your sacred honor?
I think I’ve posted similar comments before to mixed reviews. I think it’s time to post it again.
It is just not that hard to establish a Third Party. Yes there are some hurdles and road blocks along the way, and they’ll throw all sorts of legal trouble at us to prevent us from doing it. But it can be done. It has been done. And I’m willing to tell you how. If you’re willing to learn.
I’m almost certain there are over a hundred people, if not a thousand on this site who have the experience of doing it. A hundred, or a thousand CAN do it. But how about Seventy-five million, hard working, determined, pissed off Patriots, who don’t just gripe and complain about those mean Rino’s who won’t appoint good candidates to public office… but are ready to get off their computers and get out in the streets of neighborhoods across this once Christian America, and do what it takes. Establish a political party where we make the rules and kick out those fakes and charlatans who want to disrupt our apple cart.
The ship of the Republican Party sailed away years ago. There’s no bringing it back. She sunk off the port side. (For you land lubbers, that means she tilted toward the left, and was never able to level off, until she sunk.)
As far as I know, the CTH is the best site in America. I don’t even know who is a close second. I’m just one crying in the wilderness. Without help, a lot of help, I just don’t know how to move this ball forward past this message.
Can someone, maybe ten someones, maybe even twenty, say yes, I have a farm, with a great big barn that would hold five hundred people? Someone will say, that’s a stupid idea. BLM will probably show up and disrupt it. Well too bad for BLM. They would be meeting people of their worst nightmare. Say there are twenty someone’s out there willing to host an event. In twenty locations across this great land? I think; no, I know, this would be the start of something big. Or I should say, Bigly!
Remember this: we already have our candidate; who is not welcome at the Rino Party last time I checked. By this time next year we’ll be calling all the shots. Tell me this is a stupid idea, and I’ll just go away quietly. If there aren’t many thousands on this site who haven’t had this same idea, then I’ve judged you’all wrongly. But if you think it’s a great idea, raise your hand and say “count me in.” Joe Dan has a Bar-B-Que every year for crying out loud. I’m sure he thinks this is a good idea. I may be just an old fool but I think we should be getting at it too.
Years ago, when I was a young fool… we used to play a card game called “Man or Mouse” (two card poker; I’m not recommending it). I’m asking you now; are you a man or are you a mouse? For the men out there (and the women; we can’t do it without the women; my wife won’t let me), there’s still plenty of time to do this. Do you really want to save America? Are you able, and are you willing to try? Can you say with me, “now’s the time?” Sundance; you’re up!
It is just not that hard to establish a Third Party. Yes there are some hurdles and road blocks along the way, and they’ll throw all sorts of legal trouble at us to prevent us from doing it. But it can be done. It has been done. And I’m willing to tell you how. If you’re willing to learn.
All we have to do is take over the Constitution Party. They’ve already done a lot of the hard work for us, and doing that would put us years ahead of the game. Plus, they’ve already indicated their willingness to allow us to take it over.
‘republiCRAPS’ want the money, they don’t care about the morals, ethics or epistemology. consider the TV RINOs for a good example.
Trump absolutely smoked out these bedwetters like Goldberg for what they are.
The uniparty has gotten really good at stealing elections and they will be ready in 2024. I would love to hear Trumps thinking on how that will be prevented.
If Trump MAGA can ensure honest election he will win again. The future of our nation is in the balance.
‘Pontificating pustule’
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
I’ve received quite a few emails from President Trump saying that we need to wrap this primary up quickly. He said he has plans to build out the infrastructure needed in the swing states to legally bank every vote through ballot harvesting, early voting, following up on making sure people’s ballots actually get delivered, etc.
But he’s not going to start building the infrastructure just to have the GOPe STEAL his rightful nomination win & then let the puppet GOPe nominee use the infrastructure that Trump & his donors built.
He does have a plan…and it’s Go Time as soon as he’s assured of the nomination.
If a has-been pundit speaks on his CNN show and no one hears it does it, make a noise?
The RNC, unlike main street republicans, and most county and state republican parties is the very definition of a fascist toadie institution.
The RNC is in lockstep with the national government. The RNC dislikes and fears its grassroots and is opposed to any vestige of the Republican Party’s claim to “small government “. Simply the RNC is a fascist organization, unrecognizable from the WEF, IMF, or the DNC as they partner with the US government. It is the reason they are ripe to be replaced by Trump and the reason they fear him enough to promote and pay for Anti-American policies and anti-Constitutional actions by the DOJ
and the ‘lesser of two evils’ is?
still evil.
jonah goldberg and the rest of the ‘conservative’ tv crew are the very definition of ‘controlled opposition’. bought and paid for by the communists.
Goldberg is a media wh*re like Ann Coulter, who should also be included above group.
I just cannot ever get past his doll hair.
It is all about China money and military industrial complex money. Trump opposes the offshoring of our manufacturing to China, and does not do forever wars, and for the people who write the checks, that makes Trump unacceptable. Golberg, NR, and all the others are simply bought by China and MIC money. That’s been essentially the only story since Trump came down the escalator in 2015
Come on, just allow proxy voting like stockholder meetings, except the government votes your share. Most people don’t know whom they are voting for anyway. I bet you could get more than 50% to agree to proxy voting.
He is a fraud just like his late mother!!! 🥴
I stopped reading anything Jonah Goldberg the day he blatantly lied about Ben Carson. After that, I never read NR ever again.
Don’t forget our favorite RINO, John Kerry.
Well, at least his hair.
How ’bout an 11 blade?
FYI Every time I try to play the tape, the computer flashes a warning and I have to shut down computer!!!!!
