Bill Kristol deletes tweet, fails to apologize for jumping on phony story of MAGA hat kids

On Friday, a group of March for Life teenagers from Covington, KY were harassed by an extremist demonstrator, a Native American beating a drum, and through carefully edited video, were widely portrayed in the mainstream media as mean harassers of a poor Native American war veteran.  Taylor Day busted the fraud on our pages today, but you can quickly grasp the gist of the fraud through this video from the Daily Caller:

A number of conservatives jumped on the virtue-signaling bandwagon, accepting at face value yet another fake news story seeking to castigate Trump and/or his supporters. But those with integrity, once they realize that their eagerness to display moral superiority to other conservatives, apologized.

But not Bill Kristol. He quietly deleted his tweet claiming moral superiority for what he imagines John McCain would have done, compared to that reprobate Donald Trump (who correctly did nothing).

Too bad for him that a Twitter Account called Screenshot bot captured the tweet, exposing the cowardly retreat from the public stage when shown up as a phony virtue-signaler whose virtue was imaginary to begin with.

Imagine, back in the Reagan years, I used to like this guy.

Back in the Reagan years, we couldn't be choosy.

I’m still not sold on this. The teens should apologize to the Native American. It was shameful.

Sorry, but if your time is just too valuable to watch enough of the unedited video to figure out what actually happened... then you should not be bothering to share your uninformed opinion. All you have accomplished is to let others see that you are an easily influenced simpleton.

Read the teens account of what happened. Then see if your opinion changes.

Had I been that kid, I think I'd have pulled out a knife and slashed the drum-head. That would put a stop to the noise.

So...answer me this: are you equally outraged at the Black Hebrew Israelites that were throwing racial slurs at the kids right before the incident? After all, if you have seen the entire incident you saw that. If so, direct me to those comments of condemnation. Now, show me also where you condemn a grown man walking 50-100 feet out of his way to stand in the middle of a group of kids and bang a drum 6” from one of their faces (since that is exactly what happened). Do you believe THAT is acceptable behavior in a grown adult and is also shameful? I’ll wait.

Bill Kristol was for much of his career a closet Leftist, posing as an official voice of “respectable” conservatism while peddling internationalism and open borders. Now that Trump has him completely unhinged, he’s come out of the closet. Whenever there’s a chance to attack Trump supporters or any nationalist movement among Americans or Europeans, he uses the same talking points and rhetoric as the Intifa types.

Dr. Farrakhan may have a point...Bill Kristol and Jennifer Rubin were probably created in a lab from the combined DNA of every self-hating, weak, timorous, cowardly, craven, wanna-be-liked backstabber from Brooklyn through Eastern Europe.

As an aside, anyone see them together in one place at the same time? Another theory of mine is that face...that smugc-nt grin on their faces is so similar, I swear Rubin is Kristol in drag. They are the kid of people, that, when kids, would call their OWN mother a F!@!#@$ whore first and stand there and smirk like they just won the argument.

John McCain also had the moral code of a scorpion.
