TrumpHate Rises to New Heights. Will It Work?
Kevin MacDonald, Occidental Observer, 17 July 2018
The Trump-Putin summit in Helsinki has resulted in the greatest outpouring of TrumpHate to date. Truly stunning. The #NeverTrumpers (basically neocons) and the liberal/left have finally found the issue they think they can win on. Sure, the image of children being taken from their parents was effective with the people who already hated Trump. But this may not be a winning formula—certainly not Trump’s base—when 70% of voters rank immigration as “very important” for their vote. But the idea of “Trump the traitor” may well have legs.
Democrats and NeverTrump neocons are smelling blood in the water. They can pretend that they are patriotic nationalists (despite all the open borders “abolish ICE” comments from top Democrat politicians and neocon horror over Trump’s America First foreign policy (neocons have a very different idea of what country should come first, and predictably, they shed crocodile tears about Trump on separating illegal families (along with the ADL) without saying a word about Israel’s draconian immigration policies or gratuitous murder of Gazan children).
"Televised treason." Wonderfully ironic to see the far left embracing American patriotism and their (incorrect) view of American interests. I thought borders were an outdated relic of our nationalist past for these folks. https://t.co/CAk33H0sZ6

European (and American) nationalists are not on board with the hate-Russia narrative promoted by neocons and other establishment types that pervades the West. https://t.co/cPmXkUiTJH
