Never-Trumpers don’t actually want to do the hard and dirty work needed to advance conservatism - they just want to make impotent speeches and write impotent articles advocating conservatism while the liberals laugh at them. Then when Trump comes along and actually starts to get things done and points out their impotence, they abandon their faux-conservatism because he offends their vanity. I have more respect for committed left-wingers than I do for faux-conservatives like Max Boot, Jennifer Rubin, Jonathan Goldberg - at least the left-wingers don’t turn their backs on their stated positions because some guy they don’t personally like gets elected.
And host cruises.
Good comments!
I would include the ragazine, National Review as providing impotent support for the Never-Trummpers.
