In the NeverTrump issue of NR, Sowell likened Trump to Hitler. He spoke into a microphone! In front of cheering crowds! And he said that, once in office, he was GOING TO DO THINGS! (As everyone understands, promising to DO THINGS was proof that Trump was going to destroy the Constitution and declare himself dictator.) I was a Sowell fan for forty years, but he utterly disgraced himself in 2016.
Just think, the man I consider the wisest man in America whose thoughts I have access to disagree with my choice for president. The man whose views I would seek above all others made a mistake. The man I refer to as a National Treasure has a flaw.
I put that altogether and decided to vote for Donald Trump without diminished my respect for Dr. Thomas Sowell.
Try harder; it can be done.
Need to agree. Sowell went full on eGOP and denounced Trump as a fascist.
