If newspaper editorial pages wanted to better reflect public opinion, they should open slots to Democratic Socialists & Trumpian nativists, not deficit & foreign policy hawks (stances that are being abandoned by both parties).

Never Trump Republicans are a perfect example of how you can become a Very Serious Person by mere dint of calling out extremism in your own party. As long as you do that and do it consistently, no one cares that you, say, wrote a book called Liberal Fascism.

Calling out extremism in your own party is a very important thing and there aren't enough serious people doing it. I'm not about to complain

I think they have a small constituency among metro-area Chamber of Commerce Rs. I used to call them Lugar Republicans.

Not strange at all. Best expert witness is counter to type. How many democratic pundits are coming out in support of Trump? None. Moveover, they do have a constituency. Watch
#2018midterms. There will indeed be a suburban anti Trump GOP vote for Dems. Bet on it.Thanks. Twitter will use this to make your timeline better. UndoUndo
