Personally, I’ve thrown up my hands in despair at the debased state of the GOP. I don’t want to be identified with the party of the child-snatchers. But I respect principled conservatives who are willing to stay and fight to reclaim a once-great party that freed the slaves and helped to win the Cold War. What I can’t respect are head-in-the-sand conservatives who continue to support the GOP by pretending that nothing has changed.
They act, these political ostriches, as if this were still the party of Ronald Reagan and John McCain rather than of Steve Bannon and Stephen Miller — and therefore they cling to the illusion that supporting Republican candidates will advance their avowed views. Wrong. The current GOP still has a few resemblances to the party of old — it still cuts taxes and supports conservative judges. But a vote for the GOP in November is also a vote for egregious obstruction of justice, rampant conflicts of interest, the demonization of minorities, the debasement of political discourse, the alienation of America’s allies, the end of free trade and the appeasement of dictators.
That is why I join Will and other principled conservatives, both current and former Republicans, in rooting for a Democratic takeover of both houses in November. Like postwar Germany and Japan, the Republican Party must first be destroyed before it can be rebuilt.

Another leftwing “dreamer” fantasizing about “leaving the GOP”. I don’t remember him ever being a Republican.
Max has outed himself. He never was conservative. He was one of those people paid to make conservative noises, but steadfastly oppose anything which might roll back socialism.
“Boot was born in Moscow.[3] His parents, both Russian Jews, later emigrated from the Soviet Union to Los Angeles, where he was raised.[3][4] Boot was educated at the University of California, Berkeley (BA, History, 1991) and Yale University (MA, Diplomatic History, 1992).[1] He started his journalistic career writing columns for the Berkeley student newspaper The Daily Californian.[5] He later stated that he believes he is the only conservative writer in that paper’s history.[5] Boot and his family currently live in the New York area.”
Everything you need to know about this idiot
A feeble attempt to counter the #WalkAlway movement from former leftists.
Happy Independence Day!!
Plus....it says he has a “PARTNER”.....that usually means GAY! ANd he sure does love the GAY agenda!
“The party of ... John McCain”
Stopped reading right there.
Anyone claiming to be leaving Conservatism now, was never a Conservative to begin with.
I would like to take a moment to thank this imposter for finally doing the right thing, outing himself so everyone will know.
I want to be identified with the party of the child-molesters and child killers.
“partner” “significant other”....
We cracked the code long ago Max.
Cuck.....
Max Boot just outed himself with this article. What’s in his closet? TIme will tell...
Move to Mexico, taste the golden fruit, do not come back.
Walkawayers moving right...
NeverTrumpers moving left....
Indies getting off the fence.....
Congress critters (many of our RINO's) retiring.
All good and welcomed. DjT--the Great Re-Aligner
Lost me at John Mccain. He must be part of the closet pedophile branch of the GOP Elite.
He prefers the party of child molesters, instead?
No real Republican would use Ronal Reagan and John McCain in the same sentence. This guy is just another liberal. At least he can quite pretending and be himself. I wonder how many conservatives he voted for in all his years as a Republican. Zero?
By your words shall you be known...
People are taking sides and all the false facades fall away as the changes underway require them to show their true colors
Maybe we should call him Rainbow Boot from now on!
Keep signalin' the virtue and arguing by association-with-others, and in time your pride and insecurity will take you to a very dark place where you will come to believe the root of your suffering is others, and there you will continue to suffer and complain for eternity with your living-dead friends.
But at least all that time, you will know beyond doubt that you are among the few who are right and that the joyful ones are wrong. In your head you will live the lie that you are a Great Man, and you will suffer but not know that your attachment to that lie is the cause, and probably physically die before you wake up from the dream of being right.
It's a sickness that has nothing do with politics, but does tend to express itself there. George Will definitely suffers from it, from the time he found his overly intellectual use of language could earn him a wage and more importantly give him the false sense of inclusion where admirers and readers pass as real friends and fellows.
This one would make a shrink throw up their hands in despair.
