George Will Thinks Trump’s Act May Be Getting Stale

George Will has not been relevant since, I am thinking, 1992. He has emerged from the Tarpit of Irrelevancy to pronounce that Trump’s act “may” be getting old and his supporters are like those tired old Deadheads following the band around from camp to camp. I will wait while you stop laughing. You have got to give Old George props for the crust to call anyone else “stale”.

I have never been a George Will fan. I could see myself listening to the late William F. Buckley Jr., as he held forth on principals while sipping a Courvoisier in front of a warm fire. Mr. Will always came off, to me, as way too poncy. Pretentious and affected. Buckley was natural and erudite, while Will came off as performative.

That would be the reason why George Will has been offended by Donald Trump for the last nine years. In 2018, Will called Trump “sad and embarrassing”. In 2019, Will wrote about the “incessantly splenetic Trump”. Now, Will thinks Trump’s act may be getting stale. What crust! Especially when you have been doing the same tired song and dance since the 80’s.
