How they posture!
I used to rather like Roger Cohen. But he's wandered off the reservation and now consorts with the self-righteous left. They are our betters. They are morally superior.
Take this, in his latest New York Times column: "White Christian males losing their place in the social order decided they'd to anything to save themselves, and to heck with morality".
They may exist. But the only Trump voters I know (and I'm not one myself), are nothing like that.
That may have been a factor in his election. But there were many others including a decided loathing of the morally self-satisfied posturing of the Left. Here exemplified again by Cohen.
It's true what's said on the Right: conservatives are willing to discuss issues and to put disagreements down to genuine differences of opinion. The Left thinks that if you don't agree with them it's because of bad faith. And you're simply wrong. In a morally wrong kind of way.
Shame on Cohen and the Times in perpetuating a line that will go nowhere to help their chances of re-election.
