Phyllis Schlafly: Trump is 'last hope for America'
Check her out in Wikipedia.
She's been a leader of the movement for many decades.
She joins Pat Buchanan, another old timer, and Ann Coulter, a younger voice.
Movement conservatism has been a crowd of globo-interventionist madmen since Buckley founded The National Review and his first hero, Barry Goldwater, wanted to "roll back" Communism out of Eastern Europe.
Kennedy promised to "bear any burden" and "pay any price" in defense of free men anywhere, whether before or after he left the Cubans drowning in the Bay of Pigs I don't recall.
But Kennedy's commitment to containing Communism, though absurd enough to stick an American foot into the quagmire of Vietnam, was as nothing compared to the loonyness of the movement right, wedded from beginning to end to a policy of "rolling Communism back."
And of course they claim their other big hero, Ronald Reagan, finally not only rolled it back but brought it down in the only place it really mattered, the Soviet Empire, Russia and Europe.
And they have never got over it.
Hence the domination of the neocons and their phony new World War Three - or maybe Four - against the Jihaders or maybe even against Islam altogether.
And their rhetoric is as ludicrous as always.
