The United States is Not a Nation

 

Earlier this month, prominent names in the conservative movement gathered in Washington, DC, for a conference on “National Conservatism.” Speakers included such luminaries as Tucker Carlson, Peter Thiel, J.D. Vance, John Bolton, Michael Anton, Rich Lowry, Yuval Levin, and Josh Hawley.

Representing the academy were F.H. Buckley, Charles Kesler, Amy Wax, and Patrick Deneen. Other conservative writers and thinkers participated in panels. The two figures most associated with national conservatism — Yoram Hazony and R.R. Reno — spoke during the opening plenary.

What is this national conservatism all about?

  1. No the U.S. is not a Nation. It was designed to be a Nation but
    the weasels destroyed that concept. The CSA could have been a
    Nation but alas, we lost.

  2. Most of the "blue areas" will turn "Red" or disappear after the .gov safety net fails to support those who will not work or assimilate as members of a representative republic. This net is responsible for many of our nation's current woes such as "incentives to breed" and not marry, importation of muslims and other counter western cultures and peoples under the guise of being refugees, the illegal invasion by people looking to get on the .gov teet, the constant division of the races/cultures, etc.
