Paul Mirengoff has been more critical than most of his fellow hard right travellers — of Tangerine’s nationalist agendas.

He was kicked out of Powerline for it. That led to his creation of “Ringside at the Reckoning” — on Substack. The effort to dump him was led by Hayward.

I strongly suspect Steve Hayward wrote him (another) rather scorching email about his mild criticism of Trump last week.

So today, he authors a more complete run-down of why a second Tangerine term would be bad for the nation — and even bad, for real conservatism (whatever little that notion may now hold).

The critique is under-stated, but correct — in a directional sense.

It will likely mean a decrease in his paid subscribers, and maybe even some new shunning at CPAC and elsewhere.

It is all well… with my soul.

Let them eat their own.

Out.
