George Will has endorsed Kamala Harris for president. Watch out for flying pigs. The ultra-conservative, and baseball fan, comes to his decision reluctantly. He sees the need to dump Trump. His endorsement of Harris shows a clear lack of enthusiasm,...
Not quite, Will de-registered as a Republican years ago… (checks notes) 2016.

So he’s not anti-Conservative or anti-Republican, he’s just anti-Trump.
For those too young to remember, there was an era of intellectually honest conservatism. It was led by people like George Will and the late, lamented William F. Buckley Jr.

Buckley would have shot Trump in the middle of 5th Avenue and gotten away with it.
Intellectually honest in expressing their support for apartheid, ignoring the Constitution in favor of segregation, and promoting military coups against democratically elected leaders of foreign countries?
Intellectually honest in that they were open to having their minds changed through debate. Buckley saw his earlier positions were wrong, and regretted that he took them. This stands in contrast to the Republican party of today which is almost entirely dogmatic in its beliefs.
Doubles down even when anything it believes is shown to be patently false/immoral/illegal.
