Dennis Prager argues that Republicans opposing Trump aren't motivated by policy disagreements but by narcissism and a desire to seem sophisticated. He points to the economy, tax cuts, low unemployment, Middle East policy, and judicial appointments as areas where Trump delivered on conservative priorities.
If I made a list for any of these Republicans who hate the president, if I made a list of things that they would have dreamed for as at least theoretical conservatives, would they not be— I think they would be honest enough to say, wow, that's a dream list in terms of economy and taxes and unemployment. And the Middle East and Iran and Israel in the Middle East and judges and Supreme Court nominees. Oh, nobody would have believed, as my friend in Toledo, nobody would have believed this was going to be done by this man. So therefore I have to believe that Most, if not all, I guess not all, but most of Republican opposition or hatred to the president is a sort of narcissism. I want to be known as someone who only supports the sophisticated, or at least those I deem sophisticated and genteel.
