I can't believe I often agree with Bill Kristol these days

Remember what a lying, smarmy Bush apologist he was?

Even he can see that Trump is a phony pos who has no business being president.

In the 50s, 60s, 70s, and still some in the 80s were often middle of the road and reasonable for the most part. That drove the far right nuts and with Fox, Rush, and Newt Gingrich that mostly changed starting in the 90s.

Obviously there are some left with some dignity for which Chitolini is a bridge way too far.
