It’s not as perverse as you might think; Will and those like him on the GOP side thought they could harness Trump, control him to do their bidding, only to find that he is the political equivalent of an A-bomb.

There’s no hiding from that.

I think it’s more that they believed their own myth; that they really were this pure, reasonable, intellectual, conservative type, while ‘the left’ - an endless polymorphic strawman - was everything evil and degenerate.

I give people like Will credit for only one thing, which is that they are at least honest enough to be able to state that Trumpism is evil. They think it’s just as bad as ‘the left’, which makes them mendacious slime, but they don’t insist on pretending that Trumpism is holy and beautiful.
