I was recently killing some time at the local library. I was looking through the magazines and noticed one that I used to read, National Review. I can’t remember why I stopped but I did. It has been years since I have opened a copy. Since it is now in the ranks of Never Trumpers I don’t feel a real need to subscribe but I notice the cover featured an article about Kanye West. I decided to read it.
It was a waste of time. Since West seems to be getting along with Trump the hatred was transferred and there was nothing good to say about either of them. The look-down-the-nose attitude was almost humorous. The writer was trying to sound open minded and honest but he could not resist all the little digs. What it boiled down to was Orange Man Bad so Kanye West Bad Too. Or maybe it was Kanye West Orange, too.
It will be years before I bother looking at National Review again and since I don’t have many left it may never happen.

It's hard to find responsible journalism on ANY subject anymore, especially politics.
