I hate to tell you this, but if you leave aside the Le Pen stuff, Douthat is one of the best columnists we have.

His sublimated or projected personal and status anxieties are funnier to unpack than David Brooks' but beyond that, nah.

No, Douthat understands in some bone deep way that the system is in crisis and can't go back to what it was. Almost all the other columnists are in denial. Douthat's solutions are bad but he sees the problem.

The medocrity of the NY Times' editorial page does not make Douthat a good columnist.
