1. A few quick thoughts on Stormy Daniels,Donald Trump, Edmund Burke, Hugh Hefner, National Review, Guy Davenport, Theodore Sturgeon, chivalry & patriarchy.
More seriously, I think there is a certain style of 1970s/1980s Frat Boy, nose-tweaking satirical conservatism (Mano, O'Rourke, American Spectator) which prefigured Trump.

I was calling American Spectator "the frat-boy Right" way back in 1993, so I hear you. But that's clearly different from what's happening in the evangelical sector.

I saw a clear swing to more overt racism and misogyny at National Lampoon around the time O’Rourke took over (though I didn’t know the reason at the time). That’s when I stopped reading it.

O’Rourke’s outspoken endorsement of Hillary (“I hate her but she’s not nuts”) is even funnier now.
