Some Never Trumpers will settle permanently into what started as a temporary political home. They will have supported Democrats in 2016, 2018, 2020 and will never return. 2/x
Other Never Trumpers may feel that their political work is done with the defeat of Trump. They& #39;ll exit political life altogether for other pursuits and interests. About half the time, I feel this will be my own answer. 3/x
But some - and I hope I& #39;m describing here the younger Never Trumpers like @HeathMayo and the @BulwarkOnline crew - will stay and fight the good fight for a non-reactionary conservatism, a non-fascist Republican party. 4/x
The US is designed to be a two-party system. Maybe that can and should change, but that& #39;s what it is. And it& #39;s dangerous to have one of the two parties so weakly committed to democratic norms and institutions. America needs a decent Republicanism, a regenerated conservatism 5/x
So just as democratic Spain had to rethink what it means to be "conservative" post-Franco, just as people in eastern Germany had to purge the old communists from democratic Left ... so there& #39;s a mighty work to be done on the American center-right. 6/x
