NY Times columnist thanks Trump for standing up to Democrats’ ‘bullying’ of Kavanaugh

WaTimes: New York Times columnist and Never Trump conservative Bret Stephens felt the wrath of Twitter Thursday after he penned a column in appreciation of the president for standing up to the Democrats’ “sly moral bullying” of Supreme Court nominee Judge Brett M. Kavanaugh.

“For the first time since Donald Trump entered the political fray, I find myself grateful that he’s in it,” Mr. Stephens wrote.

“I’m grateful because Trump has not backed down in the face of the slipperiness, hypocrisy and dangerous standard-setting deployed by opponents of Brett Kavanaugh’s nomination to the Supreme Court,” he continued.

Mr. Stephens even criticized his own newspaper’s reporting on a 1983 letter from then-student Judge Kavanaugh in which he described himself and friends as “loud, obnoxious drunks.”

“[A]dolescent boasting now being treated as if it is a crucial piece of incriminating evidence,” Mr. Stephens lamented. more

    You are stupider than I ever imagined.
