David Frum is a total square. But not in that endearing or charming sort of way. For evidence of that, look no further than this tweet:
I keep thinking of that old disco standby
I'm too exonerated for my shirt
Too exonerated for my shirt
So exonerated it hurts
And I'm too exonerated for Milan
Too exonerated for Milan,
New York, and Japan— David Frum (@davidfrum) April 3, 2019
Um.
Dude, what?

OK, aside from just the lyrical cringe factor, Frum seems to be confused about what disco is.
Disco?

Old? It's from the 90's! That not…. Umm, ok, it's old. But not like 70's disco old.

Given Frum’s ignorance of basic musical history, we shouldn’t really be surprised at his ignorance in general.

Actually, since his day job is evidently crafting awful takes, maybe he should quit.
