Not one of the people listed in this article are AF patriots.

Not close.

As soon as Trump hired Kirshner and listened to him over Stephen Miller, he stopped being AF in foreign policy.

What you've done is notice the things that the now vilified and totally erased-off-the-internet 'alt right' noticed during 2013-2017. When you criticize those who are never to be criticized, the entire syndicate comes after you, and they'll eventually stigmatize the movement until it's suffocated out of existence. "Alt right" was a term coined by sleepy libertarian Paul Gottfried many years ago - it was specifically directed at the inconsistencies of the Neocons and their fealty to Israel and the Big Gov't that mindlessly supports it. You can go even further back to the early 50's with John Beaty's "Iron Curtain Over America" for the genesis of this viewpoint.

The thing is you're not allowed to 'notice' any of this. The parroting you see, and the bipartisan bootlicking is manifest in all the Neoconservative and Neoliberal politicians. DJT had a unique angle in that he was a Boomer, and pro Israel, while savagely attacking their stranglehold on the Media and the Campus. That border wall he was pushing was a bridge too far. Border walls are only for certain countries, where they are not only necessary, but also inherently good. For evidence of this watch the human human ferret Ben Shapiro tag DJT supporters as 'racist' over and over for supporting a tight USA / Mexico border. (It's why they replaced Savage with Shapiro). It was all fascinating to watch. Now he's gone, from an election where 30 million more people voted than usual, including the historic 2008 election. So strange.

But these are all things you're not allowed to notice. That fact that you have, and have written about it; and even said truthful things about Buchanan and Ron Paul... that's bold. Fantastic work.
