Neoconservative “Never Trumper” Bill Kristol endorsed socialist New York City mayoral candidate Zohran Mamdani, saying he wishes he was less “against Israel and all that” but calling him “a very impressive politician.”


Kristol has lost his mind.

Quite the opposite. He knows how to get paid. His days with the GOP were over and he found another buyer.

To be fair the modern day republican party would rip apart basically any republican from the 70s to the 2010's. You'd have to go back to McCarthy and his bunch to get anyone that actually would fit right in.

You only need to look at how republicans lost their shite when Canada merely played a clip of Reagan in his own words to see how far they've lost the plot.

That implies he had one to begin with. Neoconservatives are Trotskyites at heart, so it's no surprise he finds common ground with Communists.

Talk about total TDS. Kristol may have developed the absolute worst case of TDS ever.

Ill say it again ; I’ll forever be grateful to Trump for exposing these hucksters and frauds for what they really are.

BTW, you can probably expect the same endorsement from the other snakes, like Jen Rubin.

If you had told me 30 years ago that the founder of The Weekly Standard would one day endorse a Muslim Socialist for mayor of NYC, Id have looked at you like you lost your mind.

I use to read the Weekly Standard in High School. It was a great magazine back in the day. Kristol is a sad and pathetic man.

Do folks really think being called a "politician" is a compliment? Call him an ambulance chaser, a used car sales manager...

If Bill Kristol had not lost all his credibility long ago, I might have been surprised by this.

The modern republican party is center-left and far more liberal than even the 1990s Clintons.

Something definitely broke Bill.

Did he really say that?

Imagine saying this about Hitler. "he killed a lot of Jews and all that, but he sure looked good in those uniforms".

The late great Fred Barnes and the late great Morton Kondracke were very talented and true Patriots

I think he was basically an unregistered lobbyist for years, under the guise of punditry. And when his funding ran out and the Weekly Standard folded, he went shopping for new income sources.

Don't know who the highest bidders were, but I believe he's for hire.
