Bashing Trump may well be a worthwhile exercise, but what gives George W. Bush-era ideologues such as Boot — who helped orchestrate the most cataclysmic military intervention in decades — any credibility to level the charges? If anything, criticism from this set should make voters less confident in the disreputability of Trump. It's valid to suppose that Trump presents unforeseen dangers to the republic, but to bolster this point, why highlight the fact that the most destructive operators of the past 15 years are so vehemently against him? It doesn't make a ton of sense.
