I can’t think of a snarkier remark than “trans-conservatism.”
Yeah, on the one hand it can use any toilet it wants now, but on the other hand, all it does is crap all over the place.
I suppose it comes close to “neo-con” which has been so overused that it means everything and nothing at the same time now. But in a world where Bruce Jenner can be named Woman of the Year because he is now a part of the “transgender community” the term trans-conservatism seems like a perfect descriptive of the current political environment.
Well, if you can't think of anything, just look at the comments immediately before and after your post (#8) to jog your creativity.
I did click the article. There are plenty of snarky remarks in the article. The author was on a veritable gloat fest. But I suspect each of the GOP candidates has a number of such articles posted against him/her on the NYT website. In the end though the author said what I was thinking throughout as I read it. Cruz will be back.
Maybe next time the voters will be ready for him. I remember that the voters spurned Reagan in 76.
