    This is what Kevin Williamson wrote recently about low-income whites:

    "The truth about these dysfunctional, downscale communities is that they deserve to die. Economically, they are negative assets. Morally, they are indefensible. Forget all your cheap theatrical Bruce Springsteen crap. Forget your sanctimony about struggling Rust Belt factory towns. . . . The white American underclass is in thrall to a vicious, selfish culture whose main products are misery and used heroin needles. Donald Trump’s speeches make them feel good. So does OxyContin."

    That's an appalling statement, coming from the party that invented the drug war in the 70s and pushed it into overdrive in the 80s. Sadly those same sentiments are also held all too often by the Clintonite wing of the Democratic Party.

    So Kevin WIlliamson is the Republican party?

    Gotcha.
    The NR is basically the GOP's Pravda, so yeah.

    One of the wings of the GOP. Far from a single voice

    Is Trump even part of the GOP at this point? He'd run third party if the rules made that possible.

    Who gives a fuck about white people? I hate white people. YMMV

    Something tells me you don't really hate all white people
