Krauthammer pegs Trump campaign correctly

Chomsky said:

Yeah, he's got a very compelling life's story, is accomplished & well educated, and I very much respect him.

He was a radical liberal early in life in Montreal at McGill, and (apparently) wrote a book describing his journey from Liberal to Conservative. I think it would be a fascinating read, but I can't find it - nor even it's title!

And then he grew up.

I don't and never said he would. I suspect Krauthammer is like many principled National Review/William Buckley/William Kristol style Republicans who are truly sick about this whole mess and will not vote for either in November.

I suspect Krauthammer is like me and a lot of others who are far too principled to even consider voting for either one of them.

It's pathetic enough when people are sheep who vote for someone simply because of an "R" or a "D" behind the name. But in this case, the Trump sheeple have their heads planted firmly against the ass of a man who was (and likely still is) as liberal as his opponent, who he considered to be a very honest woman, the best candidate for President and the best Secretary of State ever.

Interesting Tres, and thanks for your response.

I was just doing a little more research as you posted this! Now, I'm not sure there is a specific book where he describes his liberal-to-conservative journey as the main topic - because if there is, it is one helluva' hard find! :doh

So I settled on Things That Matter as my first Krauthammer book, and I just dropped it into my Amazon cart.

Does he provide commentary concerning his changing leans in the book? Does it start with his liberal period?

The reason I ask, is: I'm now wondering if I misunderstood his having a specific book describing his lean changing, and perhaps this was the book I've been looking for all along.
