Hello, and welcome back to Tomorrow Will Be Worse!
|
|
While we are still no closer to solving the mystery of who bombed the Nord Stream pipelines and as the British pound discovers gravity, I want to distract you with some more excellent work from the always excellent Tina Nguyen.
Given the way Donald Trump and his alter ego, Ron DeSantis, have been dominating the Republican side of the American political spectrum, and given Tina’s reporting on the gangbusters growth of The Daily Wire, it’s been easy to forget that there is still a healthy market out there for Never Trump conservatives. This week, Tina sits down with Jonah Goldberg, the always eloquent National Review alumnus who has founded the wildly successful online conservative magazine, The Dispatch. I found their conversation—about whether Dobbs really helped Democrats as much as they think, about how much Democrats secretly love Trump, and about the space he’s carving out for himself on the right wing—fascinating, and I hope you will, too.
See you back here next week. Until then, good night. Tomorrow will be worse.

| Back in college, during my days as a fledgling right-leaning reporter, I applied for an internship at National Review, the flagship magazine of the conservative movement. At the time, National Review Onlinewas run by Jonah Goldberg,and as a digital native obsessed with the early internet, “The Corner”—NRO’s daily blog, which featured musings from across the masthead—was my first interaction with the work of the decades-old magazine, and the conservative movement in general. I was obsessed with Rich Lowry and Kathryn Jean Lopez, pored over William F. Buckley’s past work, and I even managed to get a satirical video of mine posted on the site in 2010. In my internship application, I described the magazine as a “roadmap of the right” and an example of what conservatism can do at its best: not just stand athwart history yelling stop, but offer thoughtful political alternatives when the march of progress occasionally heads over a cliff.
In the decade-plus since then, of course, the world has changed drastically, and the “conservative” movement with it. National Review now competes with a multiplying number of... |
