Just finished watching the Mona Charen segment on the Sunday morning C-SPAN chitchat show. The highlight was probably when she mentioned that the New York Times is now a major source of conservative commentary. She rattled off about half a dozen names of columnists, and David Brooks was only in the middle of the pack.
2nd place - Fox News and Breitbart offer worship of President Trump, and apparently MSNBC and CNN are the only liberal alternatives she could think of.
Watching this person talk made me realize that there is a category of people I will call "Sackcloth Republicans", who must feel guilty for being a Republican and feel the need to criticize other members of the party. I suppose now that the segment is over, she has returned to her (medieval connotation) to beat herself with a scourge in order to purify her thought process and make herself worthy.
