He’s a NeverTrumper.
That’s what passes for a conservative at the NYT and MSNBC.

Contrarian? LOL. He’s a mainline GOP “conservative”. About as milquetoast as you can get.

Bret can suck my Stephens.

I was one among the cabal of commenters at the WSJ that forced him out for his ludicrous, ridiculous and entirely unthoughtful NeverTrumpism at the WSJ. It was a truly democratic rebellion that the Journal had to address. If that fool had joined permanent status on the editorial board would have been disastrous. Thankfully subscribers vehemently objected to his columns and the Journal arranged a trade to the Times.

So good riddance, be it to NYT or MSNBC, I won’t be seeing his stupid face or words any more.

Bret Stephens was the NeverTrumping foolboy who wanted us to lose so badly that we'd feel it for years as "punishment" for supporting Trump.

This pretend "conservative" was openly cheering for Boss Pantsuit - he didn't care if the Supreme Court went 9-0 Lefty scum - just that the Real conservative "rabble" got taught a lesson.

We ever get our hands on you, Stephens - someone will get "taught a lesson" - and it won't be us, you vile scumbag.

Great work.

Glad you were on the front lines for that one.

Little Bretty the snotball needed to be "taught a lesson" by REAL conservatives. 😀

Conservative in the mold of Georgie Will, Kraut and Scarborough.

And Hugh Hewitt, another elitist Establishment suckup.

Hewitt was neverTrump until his opportunism kicked in.

Bret Stephens was a long time foreign affairs writer on the editorial page of the Wall Street Journal.

He vigorously supported the Neo-Con policies of George W. Bush in the Middle East, and he believes that the USA should be the world policeman.

Like every other writer at the WSJ, he also supports Amnesty and massive legal immigration.

He vehemently and publicly opposed Trump in the 2016 election.

Because Stephens has timidly challenged some of the man-made global warming science, the mainstream media now claim that he is a radical Conservative.

At the New York Times, Stephens fits right in with the other two NYT “Conservatives” David Brooks and Ross Douthat.

Same is true for the other three named in the article as “conservatives”: Hewitt, N. Wallace and G. Will!

Look up the word Chickenhawk in the dictionary and you will see a photo of Bret Stephens.

Stephens is a vile Neo-Con who despises the white working class but is more than happy to see them come home with no arms or legs or in a body bag fighting for "nation-building" some Islamic rat-hole.

Stephens face should be used to clear the roads of IED's in Iraq/Afghanistan.

I despise the guy, his smugness, his fakeness (the family name used to be Ehrlich, hardly as WASPish as necessary for a man of his tastes and aims), his cowardice, and his determined specialization in the long-range character assassination of everyone from Sean Hannity to the "fascist" Donald Trump.

But I hadn't thought of a particularly useful role for him until reading your post.

Well done.
