Jonah seems to feel he has an obligation to write a daily Trump-bashing column. Jonah was 11 when Reagan was elected; 19 when he left the presidency. So he’s an expert on that Administration.
Jonah is not alone, of course. There is a small army of ‘conservative’ writers and talk show hosts who feel a similar obligation. Their stories get oh, so, tiresome.
I’m sure they will all rebound and find lots of wonderful things to say about Trump after he’s elected, and try to get exclusives from the Trump Administration, not to mention invites to the White House. That’s just the way the game works. Or has worked. It’s the whole new game that scares them to death!
