what a useless conservative prig he is.
His reluctance to completely blame Trump and try for "Both Sides" BS on Pelosi was pathetic.
Those who watch tonight's PBS News Hour know what I mean.

(60,015 posts)1. His NYT OpEd today is equally gag worthy.
He is getting massacred in the comments ( mine included)

Poor Mark Shields. Why is Brooks still on TV??

(32,006 posts)3. Why does the Times even keep him on?
He is wish washy at best but most of the time hes quite sanctimonious and indeed gag worthy.

I was glad to see Shields stepping up and correcting Brooks' both sides idiocy.
Brooks is a tool but he's usually a reliable anti-Dotard conservative. He seemed to be trying to normalize the psychopath tonight.
