So he is, and if people missed the link I posted above, here is Brooks's latest verbiage:

"The issue of how the Freedom of Information Act works or doesn't work is an issue that cuts across federal agencies. However, when it comes to transparency, Secretary Clinton went above and beyond what the law requires," wrote David Brock, who founded a PAC called "Correct the Record."

.

"This email 'controversy' is nothing but Republicans' latest attempt to make Hillary look — as Rep. Kevin McCarthy said — 'untrustable,'" he added. "She has met a transparency gold standard throughout this race by disclosing her top fundraisers, releasing eight years of tax returns and answering the Benghazi committee's questions."

Conservative? Someone must be kidding!

"conservative New York Times columnist David Brooks"

Anytime I read this I sort of get "suspect" concerning the rest of the article.

Brooks hasn't been relevant for years. He is, however, the conservative that liberals all want us to be: complaisant, unquestioning, compromising, and willing to eat from their hands for a favorable word in the NY Times. I would no more depend on his lofty analysis of us unwashed than I would his opinions on Uzbeki sheep wrestling.

“Trump is my primal scream.”

That nails it for a lot of people.

“While I have never met @nytdavidbrooks of the NY Times, I consider him one of the dumbest of all pundits- he has no sense of the real world!”

Trump has yet to say ANYTHING that I disagree with!

Ah, yes, Brooks the NY Times token “conservative” who marches to the tune of his paymasters. I understand they made a movie of his Times experience - My 12 years as a Slave.

“I remember distinctly an image of–we were sitting on his couches, and I was looking at his pant leg and his perfectly creased pant,” Brooks says, “and I’m thinking, a) he’s going to be president and b) he’ll be a very good president.”
Has Brooks bothered to look at the crease in Trump’s pants? Brooks is described as a conservative. Why? He is a mole like all the other moles who call themselves conservatives. Some would rather vote for Joseph Stalin than Trump. No one believes he is a conservative. It is an indication of just how out of touch the print media is. David Brooks is a conservative and I am the Pope. Please contact me if you are in the market for buying a bridge. The NYTimes is going belly up. My only complaint about Trump is the disrespect he has for clowns. Brooks is not qualified to be a clown. He will be hearing from the CADL (Clown Anti-defamation League.)

You understand completely what Trump says and means, black and white. America loves a straight shooter, a man, a leader. Who listens to the press any more. They are liars and liberals. America, meaning me, is the bad guy, it's my fault, I should be punished. Glad my big brother Donald is looking out for me and America.

No, I don't understand what Trump says and means, black and white. But that's because Donald is NOT a straight shooter - he never has been a straight shooter.

Donald is not looking out for you or anyone else. Donald is looking out for himself - always has, always will.

Be careful. Your "big brother" is going to steal your lunch money.

Donald Trump is running for President because he has seen his good friends - Bill & Hillary Clinton - make obscene amounts of money with little or no effort while running for President.

Donald knows a good scam when he sees one and he wants "in."

“While I have never met @nytdavidbrooks of the NY Times, I consider him one of the dumbest of all pundits- he has no sense of the real world!” Trump tweeted early Saturday morning.

LOL - Trump's right on this one...
