For those of you who are skeptical of this war - do Shapiro and Levin make it worse?

I am skeptical of the necessity of the war. Fine. Many of you Baws like to argue that it’s justified - I can get on board with that, but was it necessary, and will it be over soon- I’m not convinced. We were always going to kick arse in the shock and awe phase. But then what. When do we know we have won? It’s that big question that made me uneasy and opposed to Iraq, and it makes me uneasy and skeptical about Iran.
You know what makes me more entrenched in my skepticism? Ben Shapiro and Mark Levin. For 10 years they’ve told me I’m not really conservative. I’m in a cult. And more recently antisemitic. Frankly I don’t even really know what a Semitic means, so I’m not sure how can I be anti. All I hear from them, is that I must have ulterior motives if I don’t agree 100 percent lockstep with Israel, which is not my country. So - I’m skeptical. And being accused of bad faith motivation that I’ve NEVER harbored- makes me more skeptical. Because I know it’s NOT TRUE.
I wish Semites no ill will. I don’t want them to die or be tortured or for people to be mean to them.
I have read all of Mark Levin’s books. He says a lot of smart things about the constitution. But on all other issues he was opposed to me until about 20 minutes. Now he has thoughts on people like me have are supposed to believe about Trump, when I have been a loyal Trump supporter since the escalator.
Same with Ben Shapiro, but I find him
more annoying. At least Levin was an actual lawyer. Shapiro has never even had a real job. Plus, I’ve thought the guy was a complete pussy once I saw him get intimidated by a trannie. He too, became a Trump supporter about 20 minutes ago.
I’m fine if some dyed in the wool MAGA types want to trust Trump without question. I get That. But I don’t worship Trump. I saw him as being completely DIFFERENT from democrats and republicans, and I was fine to put up with whatever kind of flaxk he got from his critics, who were all stuck in 1996.
I’m extremely disappointed in his decision to go to war, but if anyone can find the stones to reverse course, it’s him. I continue to hold out hope that he will.
But the more hysterical screeching I hear from these fair weather Trump supporters, the more skeptical of them, and their motives I become.
Does anyone else have the same reaction?
