I used to love to read David French. Now, I can’t get through a paragraph. There is probably no [formerly conservative] writer who has been more affected by Trump Derangement Syndrome than has French. He was really a conservative, once upon a time. The only writers at NR I can stomach any more are Rich Lowry, Victor Hansen Davis, and Andrew McCarthy.
You are right about French. In five years he’ll probably be working for The Atlantic or Teen Vogue.
