Does nothing but complain about trump

is a huge JBE supporter.

quickly rising among the "nevertrump" ranks and says he is actively supporting biden.

Anyone familiar with this guy who claims to be a conservative?

Looks like another one of those guys who tries super hard to act like he’s above the fray of politics, but is really just a hack.

I've enjoyed much of what he has written, not all.

But maybe not enough to see that he is a big JBE supporter. Where did he write this?

He is the editor of The American Conservative website which was started by the great Pat Buchanan.

He is a devout Orthodox Christian who thinks Trump is too crude to be president. I think he needs to let his nuts hang.

They weren't playing much baseball at that nerd school in Natchitoches.

Looks like 80% of the respondents to the tweet are Trump supporters.

I don't know him directly, but I think this is a pretty fair portrayal

He was the Crunchy Con back in the hey day of National Review.

I don't get him, as a person, though I was intrigued by The Benedict Option.

Although his book is somewhat provocative and insightful, my response to him was similar to William Edgar's article that the Petrine Option was the better option.
