You opposed Donald Trump, so why aren’t you freaking out?
Well, for starters, allowing liberals to determine my level of anxiety – which would be full–blown, round-the-clock histrionics – over what’s nothing more than another election would be foolish. Until it’s not. The Era of Trump hasn’t even started yet and the entire establishment keeps using the term “Era of Trump” as if things have actually changed. They haven’t. If you’re genuinely interesting in being an effective critic of the next president, acting like Hitler is pounding at your doorstep every time the man tweets something might not be the most effective plan in the long run.
Not to mention, the Left have been such astonishing hypocrites on so many issues related to Trump it’s a bit difficult to move forward without pointing it out. Joining activists who’ve spent years attacking the First, Second, Fourth, Fifth, Tenth Amendments – and now the Electoral College – in a newfound veneration Emoluments Clause is a bit much. Of course Trump should be held accountable for his potential conflicts of interest, and when tangible evidence emerges that they exist, one hopes conservatives who value good government will stand up. But the Left-critics aren’t serious about the Constitution, they’re serious about the Democratic Party.
