Usually, the simplest explanation tends to most line up with reality. That’s what William of Occam has long taught all educated humans, since about the Twelfth Century.
This morning, though, Johnson runs about ten paragraphs to suggest only one (Tangerine) is a “true conservative”.
I no longer find it amusing, or even useful, to plumb whatever it is the Powerline boys NOW want the word “conservative” to mean.
What I know for certain is that neither Tucker Carlson, nor Donald Trump are… that thing. In any respect.
And, day by day, over the past nine years, both have shown themselves to be narcissistic, evil megalomaniacs, willing to waste vast resources, and destroy good people — mostly to salve what each perceives as… their bruised egos.
There is no need for any falsely ponderous “why” analysis, Scott.
Almost all educated, voting Americans now see the truth about BOTH of these cretins. And all you Powerline boys.
And. They. Are. Not. Amused.
Cheers.
