NeverTrumper Bill Kristol has officially declared himself a Democrat.The longtime neoconservative pundit and former publisher of The Weekly Standard made the announcement on social media this week.“I’m pro-freedom, pro-law and order, pro-limited government, and pro-the Declaration and the Constitution,” Kristol said. “And so today I’m a Democrat.”Kristol, who spent years as a leading Republican voice before turning into one of Donald Trump’s most vocal critics, framed his switch as consistent with his stated principles.The move comes as Kristol has spent the better part of a decade opposing Trump and the America First movement that now defines the Republican Party.
