George Won’t.
Patrician George. Fancies himself a blue blood.
I’m not defending George Will, who defines elitist, but this hardly qualifies as “trashing” Reagan. I’m sure there are reams of text by Will doing just the opposite.
Interesting article. Thanks.
Will history repeat itself?
This is all theoretical to George. We wants to ‘grit it out’ for years of HRC, and then elect a conservative.
Gee George, how many SCOTUS and other appointments will she make while you’re throwing a tantrum?
Oh, and who is this great conservative hope, who would beat an incumbent HRC? Odds are 4 years really means 8 years...or a total of 16 years of Barry/Hillary control.
Oh, and George, what happens in 4 years...if Trumps runs in the primaries again...he’d probably win. Would you ‘grit it out’ for another 4 years.
It was good thing this was back in 1979 when George could still use the phrase “niggling thoughts”...
Trump is a true Conservative. Will is a self-serving attention seeker.
BUMP
After years of being trashed by “Ol’ Frank” Roosevelt, the Republican leadership had been pounded into submission, comfortable as the “second class” political party, solely interested in big business, and happy with the crumbs tossed to them by the Democrats.
So with the rise of Eisenhower, the great split happened between the Barry Goldwater conservatives, and the new institution of “country club Republicans”, who controlled the leadership.
George Will is one of the last of the progeny of the country club Republicans. He was comfortable in being thought of as a conservative, but he never embraced conservative values.
As such, we should all give him a robust “toodle-oo”, thank him for at least nominal support over the years after recovering his locker room key, and be sure to validate his parking as we mutually bid farewell.
And in future, of course, be very careful to never refer to him as a conservative.
George Will not vote for Trump. OK, scratch one vote. He has no following. So flick him off your lapel like the ladybug he is.
Will is a pompous, egotistical ass overcome with his elitist sense of self-importance. He has trivialized himself beyond his prior exceptional capabilities to do so.

George Will is dead to me...another reason to hit the mute button (...it’s the button with the worn off letters)
Keep it up, George!
Sounds like he was in the Bush camp long ago. what an ossified stiff.
George Will is one of the elitists as is Hillary Clinton. The elitists be they Republican or Democrat have more in common with each other than they do with the voter. The elitists will cover for each other first and listen to the voter only if they have no choice.
ps
Hillary did pick up the phone for that three o’clock in the morning call. It was Paul Ryan and George Will saying, “We got your back babe.”
Where were these quislings as the budget ballooned? They were branding the TeaParty as racists!
At every extra-constitutional robbery by Obama, they miffed and mused and did not one God d@amned thing.
When Cruz tried to fight obamacare they ALL ran for the high grass.
What good are they to us? Or the US?
Go in peace Mr. Will, and may history remember who you stood for when your nation needed you.
