    anti-anti-Trumpism is basically making liberal arguments sound crazy by ignoring the existence of Donald Trumphttps://nymag.com/intelligencer/2020/05/pretend-trump-doesnt-exist-liberal-claims-will-sound-dumb.html …

        Yep. People do seem to be panicking as if we are in a national crisis... because we are in a national crisis.

        I can’t recall another time in the political history I’ve lived, going back to Eisenhower, when so many are so consumed by the lure of transitory power that they drop even the pretense of caring about consistency in principle. Integrity is so old school, so quaint. For suckers.

        Science is such an inconvenience to public health policy! But then how could we have target and isolated the problem without testing and practicing social distancing? Aren’t these scientific policies influencing policy making?

        You know what sounds REALLY dumb? Pretending we have such a thing as “conservative intellectuals,” especially in connection with the ultra-moron Rich Lowry.

        All the decent Conservative Intellectuals are never-trumpers. It's good that we know who the principaled ones are now.

        So if you beg the question you win? I thought I’d tighten it up for you.

        Instead of it being pretend, could we make it true?

        Well, then we need anti-anti-anti-Trumpism to make those arguments sound crazy. I fear though it will just spawn anti-anti-anti-anti-Trumpism. Maybe we can have a Coke and teach the world to sing instead.
