Never Trump Republican Bill Kristol comes out of the 'political closet' and declares he's now a Democrat
The Blaze ^ | 2/1/220 | giancarlo sop

Posted on 02/01/2020 10:49:06 PM PST by bkopto

When Bill Kristol swore he would never vote for President Donald Trump, he meant it. The longtime conservative commentator took to Facebook today to admit that he is a Democrat—for now.

In a tweet, the former editor-at-large of the now-defunct Weekly Standard, declared: "Not presumably forever; not perhaps for a day after Nov. 3, 2020; not on every issue or in every way until then. But for the time being one has to say: We are all Democrats now."

So, Bill, were you lying then or lying now or are you just a liar?

Michael Medved is gone, Hugh the Spewitt has been relegated to a time slot nobody listens to, and continues to insult his audience with an absolute inability—purposefully—of when to insert comedy or fact in an interview. Never mind he continues insulting his producer, Duane Patterson, one of the best in the business and a cancer survivor, by stating in every broadcast, “if I had a producer.” Hugh, get some Christian humility and stop the F’ing crap.

He comes out now because he knows it’s the only way he can get any face time, PATHETIC LOSER!

My comment on the closing of the Weekly Standard:

"For such a loved magazine, no one except a few like minded authors are mourning The Weekly Standard's passing.

"That says how much influence Kristol's really had - none."

To answer the question What made The Weekly Standard great?

#5 Nothing

#6 Nothing

    Its demise

How could you possibly be a conservative and announce you are joining a radical leftist communist party.

I love how these self-important dweebs run around saying “We’re all” this and”we’re all” that.

You don’t speak for me.

Who can blame Kristol, what with the Democrats stunning impeachment victory?

It makes complete sense to embrace the failure.

Buy low!

Kristol ran Weekly Standard for over 20 years. That was a Republican-mandated reading material for the bulk of that period. It dissolved away at the end of 2018....mostly because people were quitting subscriptions over it’s Never-Trump attitude.

Maybe Kristol thinks he will be more successful chasing loose Dem skirt. A second childhood has taken over his thinking.
