@WignatPfTW I’m the king of telling the “dissident“ Right what it needs to hear, not what it wants to hear. — PolitiTweet.org

Richard Spencer @RichardBSpencer

@SalAlCapony I don’t endorse “majority-ism.” But this has been a paleo talking point for a while. Tucker’s not even a paleo. — PolitiTweet.org

Tucker surrenders the pass before the battle begins. If there’s nothing wrong with demographic change, then why do you oppose it? Might it create economic inefficiencies if done too quickly? Should we show things down a bit, not get ahead of ourselves? https://t.co/5lvHuQpGSz — PolitiTweet.org

@parkercassidy4 Very well said — PolitiTweet.org

If a leader were boffing goats on the White House lawn—but then was ideologically sound and ruthlessly pursing his goals—I wouldn't mind in the slightest. Only goody-goody conservatives would obsess about such an effective leader's "lack of character." — PolitiTweet.org

Richard Spencer @RichardBSpencer

To return to the issue of "character"—conservatives have this problem of wanting to elect idealized forms of themselves. And they're often puritanical about moral peccadillos. The result is shallow, boring, visionless politicians. — PolitiTweet.org

Richard Spencer @RichardBSpencer

But whenever the rubber hits the road—that is, in a crisis or inflection point—what exactly are any of Tucker's critiques really worth? What would he, in fact, *do* to help this magical working-class he talks about on Fox News, outside of bashing Jeff Bezos as an "elitist"? — PolitiTweet.org

Richard Spencer @RichardBSpencer

Tucker's major achievement—very much like Trump's—is to integrate a sort of vague populist appeal into conventional Republican politics. He'll rant about the "liberal elites" and the "RINOs," and talk about giving the working class an honest shake... — PolitiTweet.org

Richard Spencer @RichardBSpencer

Tucker, to his credit, wouldn't appoint unadulterated neocons, but he'd simply appoint various "conservative Republicans." Even if he were interested in Alt-Right people, we simply lack the infrastructure to vet and deliver them. (Again, I don't think he'd want them anyway.) — PolitiTweet.org

Richard Spencer @RichardBSpencer

However, one of your arguments against Trump regards "appointing the best people." Back in late 2016, I remember countless Alt-Right partisans who eagerly and naively thought they'd be working in the Trump admin. The handful of our people who were hired, were sidelined or fired. — PolitiTweet.org

Richard Spencer @RichardBSpencer

Tucker would be similar, although, of course, more articulate and less embarrassing—and, to be perfectly fair, better at competently handling matters like Coronovirus. — PolitiTweet.org

Richard Spencer @RichardBSpencer

Trump pursues "mere populism" or populism for populism's sake. In other words, he makes bombastic, goofy, racist appeals to his base of White voters. Absent a coherent ruling ideology in Trump, the GOP easily filled the donut hole with its long-term policies and priorities. — PolitiTweet.org

Richard Spencer @RichardBSpencer

Trump's root problem is that, whereas his opposition is ideological—even religious, you could say—Trump operates using a *strategy*, not an ideology. His strategy is to appeal to the GOP base—in particular appeal to them vis-à-vis the "RINOs" or "cucks" that represent them. — PolitiTweet.org

Richard Spencer @RichardBSpencer

Both of these men, Newton and Constantine—and there are countless other examples I could cite—are simply too big for people like us to judge morally. — PolitiTweet.org

Richard Spencer @RichardBSpencer

Every man who seeks to be *The Man* is almost by definition an egomaniac and narcissist. Issac Newton had an unbearable personality. Constantine, the political founder of your religion, executed his eldest son and second wife, apparently in a fit of jealous rage. — PolitiTweet.org

Richard Spencer @RichardBSpencer

You make strong points about Trump's character being the root problem . . . but I disagree; indeed, I ultimately disagree strongly. — PolitiTweet.org

Richard Spencer @RichardBSpencer

Tucker would be worse than Trump. He's "articulate" in the sense that he'd turn "national conservatism"—color-blindness, opposition to identity politics, etc.—into a sophisticated ideology, whereas Trump's nonsensical boasting acts as a Rorschach test. — PolitiTweet.org

Richard Spencer @RichardBSpencer

@almightygenie That’s my point. — PolitiTweet.org

Richard Spencer @RichardBSpencer

@almightygenie Whether there are more homosexuals in “Conservative Inc.” or “America First” is up for debate. Some questions are better left unanswered. — PolitiTweet.org

Richard Spencer @RichardBSpencer

@almightygenie Whatever you want to say about the 2016-17 AltRight—and many criticisms are valid—it was fundamentally about moving beyond conservativism, not about desiring to be coopted by it. — PolitiTweet.org

Richard Spencer @RichardBSpencer

@almightygenie The old dynamic was maintained: racial anxieties were channeled into the GOP, but now with a Trumpian twist. — PolitiTweet.org

Richard Spencer @RichardBSpencer

@almightygenie The difference is that Fuentes et al. made explicit racial, “Alt-Right”-ish appeals, or at least made them more blatantly than the conservatives. In other words, they were able to neutralize independent energies, particularly with regard to Zoomers. — PolitiTweet.org

Richard Spencer @RichardBSpencer

@RoarkSenator Never fear. We’re working on it. I’ll announce when I’m confident. — PolitiTweet.org

Richard Spencer @RichardBSpencer

Yea, it’s almost like your lame rhetoric was easily coopted by conservatives, since it was their rhetoric to begin with. Now they’ll mouth “your” talking-points, while still banning you from CPAC. Congrats, geniuses! https://t.co/vmkPNzHvUn — PolitiTweet.org

While the Imperial Presidency can be chaotic and contradictory (Trump, for example), the Imperial Bureaucracy succeeds in maintaining long-term foreign-policy continuity. — PolitiTweet.org

Richard Spencer @RichardBSpencer

Today the issue is the “imperial bureaucracy,” or what could properly be called the Deep State, with its Congressional lackies and media enforcers. — PolitiTweet.org

Richard Spencer @RichardBSpencer

50 years ago, liberals complained, with justification, about the “Imperial Presidency,” in which the President acted as dictator in foreign affairs, launching endless small wars with no congressional oversight. — PolitiTweet.org

Richard Spencer @RichardBSpencer

Imagine thinking that conservative Whites are a majority in this country, or even a *vast* majority, not to mention one that has cultural influence. We live in an insane asylum. Being realistic about that is the first step towards changing it. — PolitiTweet.org
