David French: “It Is Plain To Me That I’m Not The Right Person For this Effort”
[guest post by Dana]
After days of prayer, reflection, and serious study of the possibilities, I am not going to run as an independent candidate for president of the United States.
…
As I’ve written many times before, nations are built on virtue — and courage is indispensable. But there is also prudence, and it was simply not prudent for me to take on this task. I remain against Trump and against Hillary, but I will do all I can where I am.
–Dana
Class and dignity.

papertiger (c2d6da) — 6/5/2016 @ 7:08 pmIn case anybody was wondering, I’m not running for President, either. No prayer was involved.
This post is a good juxtaposition to the X-Men one, though. Who, do you think, are more in touch with reality? Marvel Comics or the editors of National Review?

This is what is wrong with our society. The faux-macho destruction of good and decent people with labeling and ridicule.
The real challenge, of course, is to not do it ourselves.
No wonder we deserve clowns for political office. Good and decent people would prefer not to wade into our societal cesspool.
Simon Jester (e49602) — 6/5/2016 @ 8:08 pmAnd my guess is that some of the usual suspects will wade in and do exactly what I am talking about. It’s a circular firing squad and everyone clapping each other on the back for fine marksmanship.
Simon Jester (e49602) — 6/5/2016 @ 8:09 pmNot quite Admiral Stockdale, but I’ll sure take it.
Let’s see what fresh chaos can be brought to bare this week.
Ed from SFV (3400a5) — 6/5/2016 @ 8:19 pmI did read that today, Simon Jester. I thought her rebuke was smart and efficiently done. And you’re right, good and decent people prefer to not have their marriages, families, and loved ones raked over the coals. Even if there are no skeletons to be found. It a tremendously awful process. I admire the resiliency of those who are able to endure it.
With that, I also admire a man who is able to say “no” with sureness and move on with his life. His ego did not determine his path, which can’t be said for most in the world of politics.
Dana (0ee61a) — 6/5/2016 @ 8:39 pmI will quote the (Anne) Barnhardt Axiom
In our times, to want to be elected to any office of government is a sure sign of being unfit for that office
kishnevi (98ea1b) — 6/5/2016 @ 8:46 pmWild Bill Kristol hardest hit.
It pains me to agree with papertiger here. Romney might have pulled it off, had he started in March. Anyone else was just wasting our time.
Kevin M (25bbee) — 6/5/2016 @ 11:13 pmfile this under “DUH”…
there was no one to take on this “task”, and only a fool thought there was.
bemoan, wail and gnash all you want, the math is simple: either Shrillery or Trump will win in November.
if you don’t see a difference, schedule an appointment with the optical healthcare provider of your choice.
or a psychiatrist who deals in “denial”.
same thing, either way.
denying the validity of an essential truth doesn’t make it any less so.
redc1c4 (699d9e) — 6/5/2016 @ 11:42 pmIn what specific way is Trump better than Clinton, he asked innocently.
Patterico (86c8ed) — 6/6/2016 @ 1:07 amHe is more selective in his appeal.
Dustin (2a8be7) — 6/6/2016 @ 1:14 amReuters/Ipsos has Clinton 46, Trump 35 among likely voters.
If you follow the link you’ll see that ‘none of the above’ is within the margin of error of Trump’s support! Pretty amazing trainwreck the GOP establishment gave us by not lining up behind the winning (actual) republican when it was clear it was time.
Dustin (2a8be7) — 6/6/2016 @ 1:15 amLike Dana was saying. People don’t travel the road to the Presidency for fun and giggles. It costs money and a lot of it. It costs in family relations. It costs reputations. In costs in goodwill from devoted socialists and the chrony capital wealthy that represent the bulk of the high rollers who patronize his vacation spots.
So Trump doing this isn’t a money making proposition for him. California legislators are voting to divest from Trump entertainments. Sporting events are bowing out of Trump facilities.
On Hillary’s side this is a money making event for her, maybe even her continued freedom depends on the outcome. She has much to gain.
papertiger (c2d6da) — 6/6/2016 @ 1:21 amTrump might be a disaster. Hillary will be a disaster.

Specific to you if you live in California, lets say you happen upon Mr. Kimberlin’s car at the walmart.

I did see a good bumper sticker yesterday
Life is a b***h. Why vote for one?
There were a bunch of Second Amendment stickers on that truck, and one that said Vote Trump, so I am pretty sure who was being targeted there.

Those “miss me yet?” posters of Dubya are even more meaningful now.
Unlike Trump, I never wanted Hillary to be president and unlike Trump I know she won’t be a great or even a decent present. To those who see opposing Hillary as a no-brainer, trump clearly has no brains or is, at heart, a democrat.
papertiger’s fawning for Trump is reaching a new fever pitch with this martyr stuff. Of course Trump is profiting immensely from his candidacy and has sacrificed nothing of note. His scandalized values were tabloid material decades ago. He thrives on his name written in bold and will surely con more people to whatever schemes he invents next week. Trump’s been failing at business ever since daddy left him his billions, so the deals he’s not making today are probably a net gain.
He didn’t even fund his primary operation. Those debts are being paid by the GOP. All those downticket races that would have gotten funding from a savvy republican will be running on fumes because they will be filling Trump’s pockets directly due to the IOU nature of his primary run (which Trump lied in saying was self funded).
Some martyr.

Many ways, to name three:
James B. Shearer (cbd2b4) — 6/6/2016 @ 5:50 am1. Better judicial appointments.
2. Tougher on immigration.
3. No first husband Bill.
So what kind of person sets as their life goal to not only wade into that cesspool, but to swim and play and do a Double Lindy off the high board? What kind of person spends their entire adult life in the pursuit of political power?
And what kind of people would hold up such a person as a paragon of virtue? Are they stupid or just evil?

This idea that there’d be no positive difference between a Trump and Clinton Presidency is the NeverTrump equivalent of the vacuous Trumpist theme that Cruz wouldn’t be any different than any other Republican candidate, since he’s a politician.
Another area I’m pretty sure he’d be different is that he’d throw out the ludicrous non-treaty with Iran and reimpose sanctions. Hillary would keep up this Emperor’s New Clothes charade that Iran is now “moderate” as they head unimpeded towards nukes. There’s a number of other things.
I understand many people think he’s unfit to be President for reasons of character etc., but on a policy level he clearly would be preferable in a number of areas.
This is all academic though, since as I’ve been saying for months, I don’t expect him to win. He did have a brief bounce in the polls and there may be another bounce or two along the way, but in the end I think he’ll do no better than McCain did in 2008, and quite possibly worse, against an absolutely awful candidate. The one wildcard at this point is the economy, but unless there’s a perfectly timed collapse like 2008, the media will maintain this fiction that the economy is doing well in order to get Hillary safely elected. Possibly there’ll even be some phony statistics released close to the election to bolster the “strong economy” theme. I think Trump may be assuming everyone already thinks the economy is bad.

Simon Jester (ef50cb) — 6/6/2016 @ 7:54 amAs I said before, what is needed is multiple candidates for President, running on the Whig party line, but a single, very rich, candidate for vice president, who can legally finance all the ballot access efforts. Multiple candidates will work better than a single one, and they will compete with each other to be the one who makes it into the House of Representatives.
In the northeast and the west, he will be pro-amnesty and in some red states, anti-amnesty. aAnd so on with some other issues. Kristol needs to look for favorite sons, or regional candidates. All of them will be solid on the Supreme Court and the military budget.
Karl Rove said on Fox News Sunday that only a candidate on all 50 state ballos will be taken seriously. Maybe to win in November, but you don’t need that for throwing the election into the House. He said there is the Libertarian Party. They can’t be taken seriously, and besides, their Vice Presidential candidate is a Friend of Bill. You need people who can siphon off democratic votes, too.
The one I don’t want to try is name the potential candidates myself.
Sammy Finkelman (eb1481) — 6/6/2016 @ 8:05 amThis board was much more willing to savage
narciso (732bc0) — 6/6/2016 @ 8:07 amA guileless candidate before. In retrospect all the estabk
Lishment efforts were to stop Cruz, even sea island,
gahrie:
This is the Instapundit’s argument and it makes sense, but I’m not convinced.
Let’s assume the press will be hostile to Trump, but how does that help conservative-minded Americans? The press will be hostile to conservative policies that Trump proposes but they will gladly support Trump if he accepts the liberal agenda, as he has done so often in New York. When that happens, who will stand up to him then? Not the media or the Democrats. Not the GOP leadership, either, who have shown they are fine with things like amnesty and ObamaCare when they think they can get away with it. Who better to lead the crusade than a Republican who assures us he wants to make deals with the Democrats?
That leaves Ted Cruz, Mike Lee, and a handful of conservatives in the House. As President, Trump will undoubtedly spend far more time complaining about Lyin Ted than he will complain about the media or the Democrats.
In addition, instead of undermining the media’s control over our politics and lives, 4 years of The Media vs a GOP President will only empower the press even more. If you are old enough to remember the arrogant media after Watergate, that will be our re-energized and emboldened press after Trump or any Republican. It would be worth the fight if the GOP President stands for conservative values, but what conservative values does Trump stand for?

G6loq (3a2647) — 6/6/2016 @ 9:05 am1. MAYBE. Or they would just be worse in different ways, or just take longer to be liberal.
Patrick Henry, the 2nd (ddead1) — 6/6/2016 @ 9:18 am2. Nope. He’s in favor of opening legal immigration wide open, and he’s in favor of touchback amnesty.
3. Who cares?
Neither am I. They will push Trump to be more liberal, which is where he actually stands, and is that what we really want?
Besides, the media matters less than Congress. With Trump, they will cave into every liberal dream, like touchback amnesty and more legal immigration. With Clinton, they will fight just like they did with Obama. Was it all the fighting they could do? No, but better than giving in.

How could Trump’s appointees be “worse in different ways”? What’s an example of that? What reason is there to assume they’d turn into liberals (which acknowledges that they wouldn’t be liberals).
There’s a huge gap between “touchback amnesty” and not rolling back Obama’s unconstitutional legalizing of the illegals, which will be Clinton’s policy.
Again, this theme that there’s no difference between the two is an exact parallel with how the Trumpists kept maintaining that Cruz is just another establishment Republican. It’s ludicrous.

Colonel Haiku (40880a) — 6/6/2016 @ 12:46 pmIn his 2011 judicial questionnaire to become a federal judge, Curiel revealed his history with La Raza. GotNews.com originally reported this Tuesday, and The Daily Caller has independently verified.
Curiel lists “La Raza Lawyers of San Diego” as a legal association he has been a part of in the questionnaire. Curiel’s office at the United States District Court for the Southern District of California confirmed to TheDC the judge’s membership in the group.
Curiel reveals more ties to the group in his questionnaire. He has spoken at two receptions held by La Raza Lawyers of San Diego, the most recent being in 2011. Last year, the group also held a reception for Curiel. The description of the event says, “This year we are proud to be honoring Judge Gonzalo Curiel at our reception and recognizing him for his leadership and support to the community and to our Association!”

Yes, I know there are many places far worse,

SPQR (a3a747) — 6/6/2016 @ 2:22 pmBy the way, that association was started by a Hillary Clinton backer who went to prison for filing fraudulent class action lawsuits.
papertiger (c2d6da) — 6/6/2016 @ 2:23 pmAnd as an aside: “This idea that there’d be no positive difference between a Trump and Clinton Presidency is the NeverTrump equivalent of the vacuous Trumpist theme that Cruz wouldn’t be any different than any other Republican candidate, since he’s a politician. ”
#NeverTrump does not hold that there is no difference between Trump and Hillary. #NeverTrump stands for the proposition that Trump is not an acceptable person to vote for, regardless of Hillary. It stands not for a balanced version of “the lesser evil” but a refusal to choose between evils.
I know that this is too subtle a thought for Trumpkins.
SPQR (a3a747) — 6/6/2016 @ 2:24 pmPapertiger – you also failed to show that the Judge had acted in a biased manner towards Trump. Simply not ruling the way Trump wishes does not constitute bias; especially when the vast majority of rulings in this case came before Trumps new new new new new subject to change on a whim immigration plan. It is sad how comfortable peddling deceitful info.

75. papertiger (c2d6da) — 6/6/2016 @ 2:19 pm
What JD said is it is adifferent la raza – not La Raza Unida. I know, I suppose you could say anything that uses the term “La Raza” in its name is certainly “pro-Mexican” enough to be against the wall and Trump’s public position. But being against him for president is not grounds for recusal.
Trump does not want to replace he judge. Trump wants to argue that the fact that the case was not thrown out of court before the election is because the judge is biased. He would not get a different result from adifferent judge so he needs to keep the biased” judge on the case.
That’s the target – the voters. Nothing of significance will happen in the case now before the election (unless he settles) so what he is trying to argue is that the fact that the case is not dismissed is bias.
He wants to argue there’s not even a shadow of a case against him.
Tp the extent that this has anything to do with the case, the target is not the Ninth circuit, and not potential jurors, and certainly not the judge himself, but the opposing lawyers, who are to be made to think that taking this case to its conclusion will be a very, very, very, long slog, and that maybe even he’ll get a ruling in his favor somewhere, and therefore might later accept a settlement for less than they would normally expect to settle for.
