Donald Trump is impulse-driven, ignorant, narcissistic and intellectually dishonest. So you’d think that those of us in the anti-Trump camp would go out of our way to show we’re not like him — that we are judicious, informed, mature and reasonable.
But the events of the past week have shown that the anti-Trump echo chamber is becoming a mirror image of Trump himself — overwrought, uncalibrated and incapable of having an intelligent conversation about any complex policy problem.
For example, there’s a complex policy problem at the heart of this week’s Iran episode. Iran is not powerful because it has a strong economy or military. It is powerful because it sponsors militias across the Middle East, destabilizing regimes and spreading genocide and sectarian cleansing. Over the past few years those militias, orchestrated by Qassim Suleimani, have felt free to operate more in the open with greater destructive effect.

“Maybe once the Inflammatory One is finally gone from the scene we can have an intelligent conversation about that.”
Not a chance. Trump or no Trump you will always be an idiot.
Good one!
Cheers !
My Lord! I only read the first few sentences... if that’s what the whole article is about.... this fits into my present thinking...
THEY look at Trump’s backers and use ‘The Walmart Crowd’... among other slurs... and look at the 4 years of Trump’s Presidency... put there for the country... by Trump’s voters.. and you scoff and call names.. who is the dummie anyway???
Trump has done what he promised.. everything he endeavors, he gets done.. His promises he kept... he works for the people...
Your stupidity did not come from Trump... YOU have been stupid for a long time. Voting for Obama is stupidity... he had nothing for the people.. he was someone with creased pants and dark skin so you could prove you were not racist. You obeyed him so you would not be considered racist... you would not hold him accountable for anything he was deep in the pit in activity and plan... you treated him with kid gloves and he became the narcissist … he was condescending and rude... but he talked the Washington elite English.. He had nothing to offer to save this country... he despised this country!.. he was not an American.. and did not love this United States... he despised what it was and the good it has done..
The stupidity you speak of, belongs to YOU.. for not seeing the bad in the Obama. and not seeing the good in Pres Trump.
You can’t dirty your rich elite hands by seeing and reporting the good Trump has done.
You think you and your crowd are the only ones who can dictate to the world, what is right and what is dumb... You gave up that narcissistic idea when you went the route of young socialists hoping to do real damage to this country and turn it into a Russia. a China.. Doing that, puts you in the “Stupid elite who are stuck in deadville”...You could do much good for the country.. instead, you decided to go the path that leads to destruction of everything you seem to hold dear.
Your stupidity is in not standing for the country, with the man who cares more than you do and more than the dems, the media and other stupids like you!
To be so blind leads you to certain personal destruction!!
David Brooks. Does anyone read this idiot anymore?
He's behind a paywall these days. So no.
David Brooks has always been an idiot.
He should turn in his “conservative” card.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
It was a fake all along.
Well at least he is FINALLY admitting that he is stupid, however Trump had nothing to do with his stupidity!!!
I can't identify anything that Trump actually did wrong here, but he's causing the people who hate him to act like imbeciles and lunatics! I can't wait until he's gone so those who hate him won't keep acting that way!And he hopes that one of the people who are (according to his own analysis) saying imbecilic things replaces Trump.
I would pay the cost for him to be permanently relocated to Fort Marcy Park...
ESAD, Brooks, you ridiculous piece of garbage!
Good to know you’re suffering, Brooks.
Hey mr brooks.
Eat shiite and die
You’re a lazy pussy licking milk from your communist masters at the slimes
Speak for yourself Brooks.
Not only is Trump not stupid, neither are the rest of us.
The only stupid one I see standing above the crowd is you David Brooks.
You make a fool of yourself every time you open your mouth about Trump.
Smooth move, ex lax..
Maybe he’s made all the idiots more stupid. Not me. I can easily defend any and all reasons for my political positions. There is no new argument from anyone on the left and nothing can change what is right and wrong.
My bird refuses to enter his cage since I put down the NYT at the bottom of his cage to catch his poop. Not even good enough for this
The fools that they are at the NYT coulda-shoulda remember that it is better to keep their yaps shut and be thought a fool than to open their mouths and remove all doubt...
But I’m glad the NYT continues to reaffirm.
