Hinderaker trafficks in the obvious today… as DeSantis exits, in a whimper.

Y A W N. John complains about the man he helped to create — to push forward, and defend… in most cases, in indefensible terms.

Damn.

Here’s Hinderaker, just now:

…Trump has many flaws. He is a poor manager. He is not, in some ways, a conservative; in particular, he seems oblivious to the fiscal catastrophe toward… which [he accelerated the nation toward, for four years — with graft and corruption on every contractual corner]. He is inarticulate, and therefore incapable of moving Americans in the middle toward his (usually, our) positions. And if he wins, he will be 78 years old when he is inaugurated….

Of course, we all know… he cannot win. But the point remains: Hinderaker loved this malign idiot, when the grift was benefitting his little think tank.

Updated: late Sunday night, Mirengoff burped up a post that adds little to Hinderaker’s — on DeSantis’ exit. But he is even more certain than John that the GOP cannot win in 2024, as a result. Hilarious. Finally! End update.

Now — when it is clear Trump not only cannot grift for him – but may be a convicted felon by November, awaiting a prison bid?!?

Not so much… Hinderaker cuts bait, and runs.

Yep, Hinderaker (and others, like Mirengof, Johnson and Hayward) chose to break the GOP brand… to subvert it… to banal criminality… just to line their pockets.

Disgusting.
