Keep trying to sell those buggy whips in the age of the combustion engine, Jonah

NeverTrumper Jonah Goldberg likes the cut of this fellow's jib.
“Amash might have more appeal than people think,” Goldberg said, because younger conservative voters were “much more troubled by Trump” than older ones, “who already don’t have any friends who don’t agree with them.”

Who already don't have any friends who don't agree with them. Project much, Jonah?

Climbing that steep hill back to relevance is going to prove to be way too much for most of the flabby intellects of the knee-jerk wing of NeverTrumpism.

younger conservative voters
Because Jonah is all in on young conservatives. All his interns tell him he's a hep cat.
Amash would probably siphon off Dem votes.

At some point libertarians became more like lefties than conservatives. I first noticed it with Radley Balko. The term 'liberaltarian' fits them more and more.
Of course Amash' support of a deep state gov't coup calls into question his libertarian chops. He's closer to Jeb Bush than to Rand Paul.

I think I'd call them 'irrelevantarian'.

And the only ones who care what they have to say, are other irrelevantarians.
