Here’s the new line from Donald Trump's cheerleaders in the conservative media: A refusal to support Trump is a de facto endorsement of Hillary Clinton. It's an argument they're making out of necessity, not conviction, trying to use peer pressure to achieve the unanimity their previous exhortations failed to produce.
First, they asked us to believe Trump was a conservative. But that argument couldn't survive a cursory look at his background, and it falls apart further with nearly every policy pronouncement Trump makes. Then they said he was antiestablishment. But Trump financed the establishment of both parties for years and is now telling anyone who will listen that he intends to go establishment once he gets the Republican nomination. Then they asked us to look past his boorishness and promised he'd tone it down as the process went on. But Trump continued his subtle (and sometimes not-so-subtle) race-baiting and lately has encouraged violence against those who protest at his rallies. And when his supporters answered his call, he defended their actions and once again raised the possibility that he'd pay the legal fees of offenders. They promised he'd surround himself with the very best people. But Trump's campaign manager manhandled a female reporter, and when Trump was asked last week to make good on his promise to name his foreign policy advisers, he said: I'm speaking with myself, number one, because I have a very good brain and I've said a lot of things. . . . My primary consultant is myself, and I have a good instinct for this stuff.

All right, Trump people, you do have a point. A number of policies pushed since the 1990s by the establishment wings of both major parties may have had bad effects on millions of people. The industrial base of this country has changed in ways that eroded the financial and moral lives of lower-middle- and working-class people, through unemployment, underemployment, family breakdown, and similar ills. It may have been unintended, collateral damage, but it was nonetheless damage, and the worst thing one can say about both parties’ leaders is not that they somehow allowed it to happen, but that they have turned a blind eye to what has been happening and have done nothing to assuage the effects.
Yes, we have read Peggy Noonan's columns in the Wall Street Journal, when she has said that Western governments no longer protect their own people; we have read Charles Murray when he says that the country has broken into two different parts that do not know each other; and we have listened to Henry Olsen, the estimable policy expert at the Ethics and Public Policy Center, when he says the establishments have behaved very badly and possibly deserve the substantial payback it looks as though they may get. In short, your message has been getting through, but it has been overwhelmed by the messenger.
