Adios. Enjoy riding off into the sunset, Mr. Kristol. I would like to say you will be missed, but that would be a bald-faced lie.

They in essence made a gamble thinking they would be seen as sages when Trump failed.
Guess what.
They destroyed their own credibility, not his.

The board wants to make a profit and sell magazines. Bill Kristol inhibits sales.
