David Brooks Attacks Those Who 'Collaborate' with Trump
Newsbusters ^ | October 27, 2017 | P.J. Gladnick

The New York Times "conservative" columnist David Brooks has become as unhinged as Keith Olbermann. Yes, Brooks has joined "The Resistance" and now urges a scorched earth policy when it comes to President Donald Trump. Even if a policy would help the country, it must be resisted, according to Brooks' new twisted logic, if it also helps Trump. Even those who oppose Trump but support some of his policies,  such as the upcoming tax bill, would be considered lousy collaborators by Brooks who is now channeling his inner Olbermann. 

Should you think your humble correspondent is exaggerating about just how unhinged Brooks has become on the subject of Trump, I urge you to take a look at his October 26 column in which he desperately compares Trump & co. to the Bolsheviks:

The metamorphosis is now complete: David Brooks entered the cocoon as a fake conservative and has now emerged as Keith Olbermann.

The Cheap Labor Express is getting desperate.

Some of their stooges are quitting rather than be thrown out of office.

Their worst fears are coming true, Americans have broken through the Bush blockade and elected a President who WILL enforce the laws.

The rest of their stooges are going to face primary challenges.

The New York Times "conservative" columnist David Brooks has...

I hear this idiot on NPR sometimes. He has all of the conservative values and mores of Killary Clinton.

Brooks’s error is that he’s not as smart as he thinks he is.

Brooks must have blown a head gasket writing his one good book, “Bobos in Paradise,” because he apparently has been losing brain cells ever since.

Sad article. David Brooks is an intelligent person, but Trump-hatred turned him into a jerk

I can’t decide who is the worst fake conservative. David Brooks or Jennifer Rubin? They both suck, but who is worse?

Lefties always point him out as the “conservative” NY SLIMES columnist.

The word collaborate in this context, is used when people work against the interests of a nation, with enemies of that nation, be they domestic or foreign.

Brooks reveals he doesn’t grasp another issue.

Not going to read Brooks or the NYT, but I thought the Bolsheviks were now being channeled by the Progs, so how can they be allied w/DJT? Or is this more of that collusion stuff?

... but, but, but Trump wears really nice Brioni suits, I thought David Brooks would be all into that. Aren’t grooming and attire the sum total of his criteria?

Must be the hair.

So we’re collaborators? Sounds like a dog whistle to me.And it also sounds like Dave has forgotten how to spell “deplorable”.

“Recently I took a friend with only a high school degree to lunch. Insensitively, I led her into a gourmet sandwich shop. Suddenly I saw her face freeze up as she was confronted with sandwiches named “Padrino” and “Pomodoro” and ingredients like soppressata, capicollo and a striata baguette. I quickly asked her if she wanted to go somewhere else and she anxiously nodded yes and we ate Mexican.”
From his not too long ago brilliant NY Times piece. I’d say Dave has his fingers on the pulse of the common folk.

Brooks needs to go back to a job he has some talent for, like pants inspector.

The next Demwit ticket will be all female and/or black, probably Maxine Waters will be on the ticket, and/or Kamala Harris. This is just in case you wondered why the sudden fuss over Harvey Weinstein and other disgusting vile Demagogic Party reptiles. Thanks PJ-Comix. Partisan Media Shills on parade:
