Kudlow is proud about being part of the GOP establishment. He can’t conceive of why anyone wouldn’t want to be.
A far cry from his college days:
Lawrence A. Kudlow was an early Baby Boomer, born in the summer of 1947. He grew up in Englewood, a northern New Jersey suburb with many upwardly mobile families. He was one of a couple of Jewish boys at a private school called the Englewood School for Boys, a tennis star, editor of the student newspaper, an actor in school plays. The family owned a textile business, worked hard for Republican causes and frequently replaced the Jaguar in the driveway with a new model.
Had it not been for the Vietnam War, Mr. Kudlow’s years in the University of Rochester’s class of 1969 might have been best remembered for his star performance on the tennis team. But at some point Mr. Kudlow, a history major, traded in his Porsche for a VW bus, let his hair turn “fuzzy” and joined the left-wing Students for a Democratic Society. Asthma saved him from the draft.
What distinguished his brief career as a radical and antiwar organizer was less what he accomplished than that he managed to have it chronicled by The New Yorker magazine in a piece about the leaders of a nationwide protest in 1969. That was an early sign of Mr. Kudlow’s gift for attracting media interest.
Indeed, Larry Kudlow has always had a knack for reinventing himself to adapt to the times, and the persuasiveness to make others follow him.

“A Rino’s Rino.”
“Kudlow is proud about being part of the GOP establishment.”
Republican in name only = Republican establishment
Does that make sense?
This seems to reduce to
Not Republican = Republican
There is something wrong with this reasoning. I’m not sure that it is any better than the liberal:
Climate change = Global warming
OK, so why not
Climate change = Global cooling
Therefore
Global cooling = Global warming
cooling = warming
