What Would Andrew Breitbart Say About #DonaldTrump?

The conservative movement lost one of its greatest “happy warriors” when Andrew Breitbart died suddenly in 2012. Imagine what the 2012 presidential election would have been like if he had lived to see it.

However, if you are wondering what Andrew would have to say about the 2016 presidential election, we now know. Here is an eerily prescient clip of Andrew talking to Juan Williams and Leslie Marshall about Donald Trump running for president…. from 2011.

Watch it for yourself. (The Trump remarks begin at the 5:09 mark.)

From Business Insider on April 23, 2011:

Breitbart also did not seem to be a fan of Trump either, saying “he is not a conservative.” He also had a warning for Republicans if they don’t get their act together.

“Celebrity is everything in this country. And if these guys don’t learn how to play the media the way that Barack Obama played the media last election cycle and the way that Donald Trump is playing the election cycle, we’re going to probably get a celebrity candidate.”

Notice also how, in this clip, Leslie Marshall is almost gleeful about Republicans potentially getting suckered into believing Trump’s schtick. Juan Williams points that out that Marshall thinks that a Trump candidacy “could destroy the Republican party.”

How scarily accurate that prediction is turning out to be.

Andrew Breitbart saw Donald Trump clearly for what he was – a celebrity who is in this FOR HIMSELF, who is NOT a conservative.

And if he could see it back in 2011, why is it so hard for others to see it now?

Breitbart is here, and his words live on.
