National Conservatism Movement: A Definition

 National Conservatism Movement: A Definition

National Conservatism is a political and social movement that seeks to promote traditional values and national identity, while also advocating for economic nationalism and a stronger role for the state in the economy. It is a relatively new term and has gained momentum in recent years, particularly in Europe and the United States.

The movement is often associated with a rejection of globalization, immigration, and multiculturalism, and it seeks to preserve the cultural and national identity of a country. It also often emphasizes the importance of strong families, local communities, and traditional gender roles.

National Conservatives typically support protectionist economic policies and state intervention in the economy to promote domestic industries and protect jobs. They also tend to be skeptical of international institutions and agreements, and may support policies that prioritize national sovereignty over international cooperation.

Critics of the movement argue that it can lead to authoritarianism, xenophobia, and discrimination against minority groups. Supporters, however, argue that it is a necessary response to the challenges of globalization and that it can help to promote a more just and equitable society.

Trump Win Fueled By Whimpering Democrats!

That is the headline I expect to see post-election  It's too early to see the full effect of the debate, but the most morose of the Commentary I have seen came from Democrats early after the event. It was that on which the pundit class based its commentary!  It seems the only way media on either side of politics comments is Democratic self-loathing! The first ten things I read from the right this morning were the whimpering comments from the left about how they lost and needed to change course! Their self-deprecating made it as bad as they perceived!  Tragically the debate was bad but not as bad as the dems made it out to be. It was one tiny data point in the face of a megalomaniacal cartoon-style villain, a felon with 34 felonies and multiple remaining felony indictments who incited an election overthrow to dispossess the votes of 81 million voters!

Problems for Federalism if States Can't Determine Eligibility

If the court rules that individual states can not determine eligibility the door would be open to all third parties for ballot access challenges. The court would have to set up or help to establish federal rules to determine eligibility requirements or face a flood of challenges for all 50 states. That seems to be a nail in the coffin of Federalism. A Trump victory in SCOTUS would set up a 50 state rush of indie candidates who would take eligibility questions to the high court. To avoid that they would have to legislate from the bench or convince Congress to legislate an end to Federalism!

Trump Major Failures!

Ending TPP  Ending JCPOA Ending NAFTA  Ending Affiliation with WTO    TPP  The Trans-Pacific Partnership, which Trump obviously did not understand was the biggest boon to China in this century! Under the agreement, we would have an economic and democracy-boosting agreement with the Pacific Rim nations that would have rivaled China and provided security and economic and military leverage against them!  JCPOA  The Joint Comprehensive Plan of Action was intended to prevent Iran from developing nuclear weapons and improve regional and global security. Iran accepted restrictions on its nuclear program and underwent regular inspections by the International Atomic Energy Agency. Our removal from the program resulted in our blindness to the Iranian nuclear progress, which is now just short of weapons production!  NAFTA  The North American Free Trade Agreement was ended by the Trump administration and the new agreement brokered by them led to higher U...
