Kristol is one of the worst Republican hacks in America, and he's reinventing himself because the right wing now considers him a RINO and soft. Rarely on fox anymore

Did the 'right wing' vote on this, or are you speaking for all of them?

Most probably the right "right-wing" voted on this one. Bill Kristol is really just a left winger with a penchant for beating the drum to the tune of War. Bought and paid for by the military industrial complex. He might look soft around the face, but does he ever love a good war in the middle east.

In my estimate, most Republicans are Phonycons........so I do not pay them much mind.

Think how much Trump could get done if the Republicans had a spine.

Kristol, like other neo-cons simply care only if they have a steady stream of cheap labor, legal or illegal.

Kristol is a huge ethno-nationalist who is known to quote literature in Hebrew on Twitter, railing against Donald Trump's ethnonationist platform, as he takes vacations to Israel.

None of that is an exaggeration.

Kristol criticizing ethnonationsism is like Engels criticizing Swedish socialism for being socialist instead of capitalist. It's about as hypocritical as it gets.

The only future variable in how Kristol is viewed is for how long certain groups will allow him to get away with hypocrisy that is so obvious that it is insulting to the intelligence of everyone else.

Will Leftist and Center groups uncritically accept a politically weak ally, or will they make an example out of him to demonstrate consistent politics and thus gain some credibility for such?

Will they remember who he is at his core, remember his past role in the Iraq (and Syrian) War propaganda and planning, and his current role in aggressive Zionism, or will he be simply accepted because he hates Trump?

As an aside, he hates Trump because Trump is anti-immigration for the USA. Kristol is pro virtually-open borders for the USA but he is staunchly anti-immigration for Israel because that's the land of his people.

I used to really like Bill Kristol but he should shut his mouth.

If the Republican party is going to survive and flourish they are going to need to marry the Trump/populist wing with the neocons, pro business wing, the shrinking values wing, and the very small libertarian wing, of which I am a member.

Trump has made an uneasy alliance, and the results have been stunning. His achievements in his first year dwarf any president in my lifetime. He will need staying power to do better overall than Reagan, but he already has a bigger footprint than Obama, the Bushes, or Clinton.

Kritsol can get on board or shut up, but no one wants to taste his sour grapes.

And if he is one of the crybabies thinks that border enforcement is racist or decries that the idea that immigrants should be good for their host country, then he ought to think about leaving the party entirely. Republicnas need a big enough tent so that we can debate the issue and be comfortable with that, but not big enough so that we have to carry the race-baiting pimps.

Kristol is a man without a home. he was major intellectual during the george w. bush invasion era when neocons ruled.The weekly standard is a joke now , sort of like the national review. Something like Breitbart is always one of the top 50 web sites in the country. weekly standard is like 6,700 in alexa rankings , national review is 1,425

The populist / nationalist movement has crushed the neocons and never trumpers

What about the ethno-partisanship of imported Democrat voters? And it is curious the only politically correct white ethno-religious nation is Israel.
