Tax cuts. Deregulation. More for the military; less for the United Nations. The Islamic State crushed in its heartland. Assad hit with cruise missiles. Troops to Afghanistan. Arms for Ukraine. A tougher approach to North Korea. Jerusalem recognized as Israel’s capital. The Iran deal decertified. Title IX kangaroo courts on campus condemned. Yes to Keystone. No to Paris. Wall Street roaring and consumer confidence high.
And, of course, Neil Gorsuch on the Supreme Court. What, for a conservative, is there to dislike about this policy record as the Trump administration rounds out its first year in office?
That’s the question I keep hearing from old friends on the right who voted with misgiving for Donald Trump last year and now find reasons to like him. I admit it gives me pause. I agree with every one of the policy decisions mentioned above. But I still wish Hillary Clinton were president.
How does that make sense? Can I still call myself conservative?

Pure, maggot-infested garbage that would make actual garbage seem like a delicacy.
Is it because you work for the NY Times and you want to keep those paychecks coming?
Bret, you’re a pu$$y. Run before Trump grabs you.
Apparently Hillary has the kind of virtue and cultural sensibility he prefers.
Do any of the 62+ million Trump voters in 2016 care what this creep feels.
This isn’t even the low standards of Fake News.
This is some loser’s feelings about our President posing as news.
When picking somebody to fight for you, pick the guy who’s never heard of Marquis of Queensbury.
What a dumbass.
What a joke. It so typifies the mindless, non-thinking left. They are like a whale that is beached...they will be crushed by their own weight. Sadly, the damage they are doing, and will continue to do, is real bad.
You can call yourself conservative all you want. Doesn't make it so. And that was an issue with you long before Trump burst on the political scene. Trump just pulled back the fig leaf and revealed how ugly your true nature is.
Bret Stephens should take a lesson from the Beach Boys. Life will go on without him. Believe it.
Should be titled, “Why i’m still a ####”
Who cares that your a never Truper. With a bid tax cut, ISIS being defeated, Religious Freedom, America First, 4 trillion dollars being repatriated and the prospect of the Dow going next year to 30,000, you will be in the minority.
The MAGA POTUS even has Levin saying he is the most conservative POTUS in a long time. Even Jews I know are celebrating a Republican who has made Jerusalem the capitol of Israel and blocked the UN Jew Haters.
That and we get to see Melania looking fine every day reminding us the a FLOTUS doesn’t have to hate the country like Moochelle or look like a Wookie either.
But I still wish Hillary Clinton were president.
There you go, folks. $$$ over Country. Corruption over justice. Cheap labor immigrants over Americans
#MeToo over #EveryoneElse
He prefers well spoken communists and anti-Americans like Obama.
But there is no excuse for preferring Hillary.
She is much more crude and hateful than Trump could ever be.
ROFL
Stephens = Pink P***y Hat.
Trump does good things but he’s icky!
It’s like dealing with arrested-development adolescents.

No.
And no.
Stopped reading right there.
