The lightness of being Peggy Noonan

One of the more fascinating developments of the Donald Trump era is the exposure of the Washington conservative elitists as frauds who are superficial, flighty, and lazy. Peggy Noonan and the rest have exposed themselves as people who play conservatives on TV. If they were conservative, they would now celebrate the great awakening in America headed by President Trump.

Instead the petty pundits stand behind Democrats 100% in this impeachment scam. They learned nothing from the Russian collusion hoax because they do not want to admit that Donald John Trump schlonged Hillary, 30 states to 20.

Oh she got a few more votes. Big deal. That is not how we elect presidents. We are a collection of states, not a nation carved into states. We also are a constitutional republic, and not a democracy. The wisdom of the Constitution shone through on November 8, 2016 -- a date we voted to Brexit the Establishment.

The Trump presidency has revealed them as reality TV show people. Their conservatism is as fake as a Kardashian breast. The very people we thought were our friends led us astray.

In Thursday's column, Noonan wrote, "I believe the president is guilty of shaking down the government of Ukraine for personal political gain, that he has rightly been embarrassed for this, and that the fit final punishment with an election coming was censure, not impeachment. But we are where we are, and the proceedings can be enriched if both parties unclench and let this thing broaden out."

Her opinion is based on falsehoods liars on the left push. She failed to do her homework. The transcript of President Donald John Trump's July 25 telephone call to his counterpart in Ukraine showed nothing of the sort. He asked about the investigation of Joe Biden. Big deal.

If Noonan did her homework, she would know that it was Biden who shook down the Ukraine government.

He bragged about it.

Biden told the Council on Foreign Relations in January 2018, “I was supposed to announce that there was another billion-dollar loan guarantee.

“I had gotten a commitment from [President] Poroshenko and from [Prime Minister] Yatsenyuk that they would take action against the state prosecutor. And they didn’t. So they said they had — they were walking out to a press conference. I said, nah, I’m not going to — or, we’re not going to give you the billion dollars. They said, ‘you have no authority. You’re not the president.’”

“The president said — I said, call him. [Laughter.]

“I said, ‘I’m telling you, you’re not getting the billion dollars.’ I said, ‘You’re not getting the billion. I’m going to be leaving here in,’ I think it was about six hours. I looked at them and said: ‘I’m leaving in six hours. If the prosecutor is not fired, you’re not getting the money.’ Well, son of a bitch. [Laughter.] He got fired. And they put in place someone who was solid at the time.”

They all laughed.

They are in on the gag.

These are the people who influence American foreign policy -- a policy that has had us handing over our factories to Red China and fighting wars in Iraq (twice) and Afghanistan while bombing Serbia, Libya, Syria and wherever else they feel like bombing. They are the heirs to Robert McNamara and Dean Rusk.

These heirs laughed at a man who, as Senate Foreign Relations chairman and later as vice president, used his power for personal gain laundered through his son and other family members. This is normal. This is how it goes in DC. We give them billions in foreign aid and our politicians pocket millions in kickbacks.

Either Noonan did not bother to read the transcript, or Noonan accepts this. At any rate, she buys their bull that it is Rudy Giuliani and President Trump who are the schemers.

America doesn't. Certainly not the conservative ones.

Once we looked at this crowd of pretenders for guidance.

No more.
