Kristol announced that he would become The Weekly Standards editor-at-large, continuing to write weekly editorials and contribute to the website. Steve Hayes and Richard Starr would take over the day-to-day operations of the website, Kristol wrote.
Under Kristols editorship, The Weekly Standard has been the central publication for neoconservatives, including Kristols father, the so-called godfather of neoconservativism, Irving Kristol.
During the election season, Kristol was a leading voice in the #NeverTrump camp and searched publicly for months for a conservative alternative to Trump

Adios, to one of the worse of all Never Trumpers.

He, George Will, and Charles Krauthammer need to take a much needed rest.
Yes please.
The world will be a better place when these 3 leave.

Thanks President-Elect Trump!
To: DoughtyOne
Me too. At one time, I felt differently. Now, I wonder why.

Thanks for the note of agreement. You’re sure right there, re. a better place.
Now, hopefully they (and hopefully all of them) will be replaced by people who actually get Conservatism.
Those three hadn’t a clue.
I say that with some sadness too, because I’ve seen Will and Krauthammer make some decent offerings over the years. They sure went South of late.
As for Krystol, that guy has bothered me on some level his entire public tenure.

Hey Kristol. Maybe you can now find a real job in the new Trump economy, and finally contribute something of value to your fellow citizens.

I told someone else that I have never appreciated Kristol’s spin on things.
It was my description of a warm bucket of horse sweat, that I remember comparing his overall value as.
Will and Krauthammer have had some decent evaluations over time. Will was more suspect over time. I’m really quite surprised at how bad Krauthammer became.
