      1. Conservative pundits often remind me of the Japanese soldiers who continued fighting 20 and 30 years after the Emperor surrendered.https://twitter.com/hughhewitt/status/863017043603464193 …

      2. In this case, Trump has abandoned idea that Rosenstein memo was anything more than a pretext for firing Comey.

      3. Trump has said he was going to fire Comey no matter what Rosenstein memo said. But nimrods like @hughhewitt still pretend memo matters.

      4. Key to understanding conservative media like Hewitt, much of National Review & Federalist is that they are anti-anti-Trump.

      5. Anti-anti-Trump is way for conservatives to still appeal to a right-wing audience while avoiding taint of Trump's more indefensible acts

      6. In practice anti-anti-Trump means persnickety media criticism (among the bushes not in the bushes!) & tu quoque (Robert Byrd lives!)

      7. Tangentially, the prototype for this stance was Sartre's anti-anti-communism, which was problematic but far more honest.

      8. Sartre's anti-anti-communism, although it shaded into fellow traveling, at least opened a political space for anti-imperialism.

      9. As against Sartre trying to move beyond constricting Cold War binaries, anti-anti-Trump is just thin partisan gruel.

          Why I have to laugh at the idea that "conservatives have ideas". No, they itches, aches and reactions. Or attempts at 18c prose (Will)

          Did you just put Sartre and National Review in the same sentence or am I drunk because of the "Trump posted crazy tweets drinking game"?
