The elder Kristol made no secret of his youthful flirtations with socialism. Like many neoconservatives, he was a college Trotskyite who lurched radically rightward after World War II. By 1982, he was universally acknowledged as a chief engine of right-wing thought in American politics and one of the minds behind the Reagan Revolution. Which is why it's so curious that, according to FBI documents obtained by Gawker under the Freedom of Information Act, he was the subject of a five-month FBI counterintelligence investigation in 1988.

There are many interpretations of why he became a Republican, but the fact that he was a Trotskyite Communist while at Columbia is indisputable. My interpretation is the view of many historians. That Irving Kristol and other big government Republicans like (Skull and Bones member) Willam f Buckley are real conservatives is doubtful.

Considering what we now know, Kristol still thinks Trump might be a covert Russian spy? These people are effing deranged.

“Trump is trying systematically to discredit the FBI"

So typical of these leftist jackasses. Project.

Now they claim Trump is not only a Russian spy, but Trump is now systematically discrediting and damaging the honorable and principled FBI.

These people are sick, stupid or Satanic...Take your pick or A for all the above.

Kristol Sr made no secret of having been a Trotskite and then a socialist. A lot of intellectuals in the Thirties and Forties were. By the Sixties he was a Democrat and a liberal, but he was disillusioned by LBJ and the Great Society and started voting for Republicans. Much of the country felt the same way. That FBI probe turned up nothing.

Many of the people who played a role in conservative intellectual life had roots on the left. In the same way, a lot of people who voted for conservative candidates had started out as Democrats, Ronald Reagan, for example. Donald Trump, for that matter.

"....He’s really become always been an A$$hole...."

Kristol is like a nasty drunk. When he lost face by trying everything to defeat Trump and Trump still won, Kristol responded bitterly as the sad, hateful, pitiful little man he has always been.

He lost the high road years ago.

I wonder what is in Billy’s closet?

Do you mean what, or who?

The only think Kristol likes more than an anti-Trump appearance on MSNBC is a large pepperoni from Comet Pizza.

Many people are arguing that the Mueller investigation is critical. The Left, last week, claimed that President Trump is going to stop the investigation and that would cause a constitutional crisis. Even interviewers on Fox News, including Establishment schill Chris Wallace, think the investigation is legitimate.

To anyone who argues that this farce of an investigation should continue, ask them this question:

“What, specifically, makes you think the Trump campaign colluded with Russia? “

There is no good answer to that question.

The only pretext for the investigation —the Russian dossier — was totally bogus. Ask anybody that question and it stops them cold. They cannot answer.

Dear Bill K.,

What size knee pads do you wear? I’ll be getting them for your birthday, for when you kneel down before Obama.

There were quite a bit of #NeverTRUMPers like Katie Pavlich, Guy Benson, Dana Loesch & Michelle Malkin They have all turned quite fond of TRUMP now after seeing his Conservative policies but NOT this IDIOT Bill Kristol!

This is what I think about what you wrote:

The people you listed, sans Kristol, are really Americans who spent too much time in the realm of politics to understand that politicians are exactly what we do not need. Once they saw President Trump getting things done they were not only smart enough to start agreeing with President Trump they were American enough to do so.

Kristol is neither a true American nor is he a Conservative. He is one of the dilettantes who thinks he is above all American citizens and thinks he should be one of the elites who should rule over us.
