Bill Kristol announcement:

[Kingofalldems]

I’m pro-freedom, pro-law and order, pro-limited government, and pro-the Declaration and the Constitution.

And so today I’m a Democrat.

19. Pigs fly today

[Lovie777]

2. What the hell?....................

I saw a poll about Bibi, it's amazing that his approval is at 38%, basically the same as shithole. In Israel, Bibi's party is in trouble.

3. Hope that SOB is in prison soon

[DavidDvorkin]

4. A major problem is that the Israeli opposition is so fractured

A strong, unified party would be in a good position to take over after the upcoming election.

6. I seem to have missed his apology for all the shitty things

he said about Dems previously, and I didn't see his acknowledgement that he was wrong.

So if he helps us, great. But like MTG, I'll believe they're sincere when they show sorrow and contrition for what they have done.

16. What? Ya don't like comedy. Alcohol fueled, hockey mom was the funniest thing to come along in years. m

--- gave the. Republican Party a good, hard bite in the ass.

[reACTIONary]

7. Welcome to the big tent....

.... I guess.

[Dr. T]

8. Bill Kristol is just like Charlie Sykes.

He helped create the fertile conditions from which Dimwit Donnie emerged. He helped create the monster that he now disavows.

F**k Bill Kristol. Choke on it, bitch.

9. Your Antifa membership card is in the mail, Bill.

When you receive it, sign it and keep it in a safe place.

10. Holy fuck

I’m not sure we want him. Just vote blue and don’t do anything else, Billy.

[betsuni]

11. Good.

I like The Bulwark, watch it all the time, because former Republicans know that the problem is Republicans and don't waste time nitpicking Democrats.

Supported and voted for Democrats in the last two elections and never lies about Democrats supposedly ignoring the working class and being bribed by billionaires and oligarchs -- that shit doesn't come from Never Trumpers who actually want and work for Republicans to lose.

[Wiz Imp]

14. "former Republicans know that the problem is Republicans and don't waste time nitpicking Democrats."

Excellent point and very true!

[Cha]

20. Yes, I like your important point.. and just

who does lie about Dems "not supporting the working class"?

Yeah, I wonder.

Mahalo, betsuni

[niyad]

12. Hey, anybody here remember the Clinton health care plan? He helped

stop it. PNAC?? He created it.

What has he done, or is planning to do, to make amends for the havoc he helped create?

[aggiesal]

13. I blame him for getting us to this point ...

He was an architect to this mess during GW McIdiot's time & anti-O'bama during his administration.
Not going to get any pity from me.

[JHB]

15. 30-40 years too late and a lifetime of damage he helped create

He's one of the many right-wingers/"conservatives" who built the road to Trump, he brings no one with him, and by calling himself our name he diminishes us.

If he's willing to make phone calls to voters or send postcards, fine. But his opinion on anything weightier than the best fishing spot in his favorite stream is worthless.

I'll change my opinion if he provides dirt on people, telling what skeletons are in whose closets, and where bodies are buried. Otherwise he's just grifting for a new income stream.

[live love laugh]

17. Uhm WOW ...

[Cha]

18. It's Never Too Late. Welcome to the

Actual Democratic Freedom Party, Bill Kristol..

Thank You!

[JHB]

24. Let him prove his worth before giving him welcomes

He's akin to Liz Cheney: embracing him is more likely to cost us votes than gain any.

[phxjurist]

21. Full circle. Dem, Rep, Ind, Dem

[Zambero]

22. Kristol was a never-Trumper from the get-go

So I would tend to accept his credentials as a Democrat over someone like Fetterman, who seems to be moving in the opposite direction.

[Cirsium]

23. Not me

I can understand the urge to flee a sinking ship, but I can't forget decades of bullshit from people like him, the nonsense from them that caused this catastrophe.

As soon as the ship is out of danger, they will all be right back to their old tricks. We have let them up easy too many times. Every time we "look forward" and forgive, they abuse us again. Not this time.

[Pompoy]

25. He is not a liberal, he just realizes what a mess we are in these days.

He understands that in order to survive this, we have to repudiate what MAGA is about. It's going to be a hard road.
