Bill Kristol is sitting up there in his ivory tower, looking down with amusement at the Republican Party he once called home:

OK, Bill. That’s a totally fair point. George Santos is a mess and a pathological liar and the fact that he clearly was not properly vetted is indeed embarrassing for Elise Stefanik and the GOP. Of course, since Santos’ lies have been exposed, he’s gotten widespread condemnation among Republicans and conservatives, while Democrats and liberals have largely failed to offer any sort of condemnation of Joe Biden for his decades of known lies. What Biden did get was your endorsement and vote, though, Bill.
Bill loves him some Biden, that’s for sure!
But we’re getting bogged down in the details. Bill still has more to say, this time about Ben Shapiro:

Wow, Bill. Savage!
I mean, I agree or disagree with @benshapiro (I usually agree)…the guy is whip smart, well read and deeply informed. This isn’t the dunk some may think it is.

It definitely isn’t the dunk some may think it is. It sure as hell isn’t the dunk Bill Kristol thinks it is.
You do not wear jealousy well, Bill.

And that’s what Bill’s beef with Ben Shapiro boils down to, isn’t it? He’s envious that Shapiro’s career is thriving while his own has been on a downward trajectory.
I remember when you mattered.

So does Bill. It’s why he clings to that memory so bitterly. Emphasis on “bitterly.”
It’s predictable the conservative leaders, whose decades of impotence led us to the state of “conservativism” we are in today, would mockingly sneer at the young conservatives in their wake.
If you are bitter of where we are, perhaps it is because you failed to lead the way.

Womp-womp.
You’re a sad, sad man.

A sad, intellectually dishonest sellout of a man:
Perhaps the Republican Party can one day be regained from the hucksters, and the conservative movement one day rescued from the witless. But not soon, I’m afraid.
— Bill Kristol (@BillKristol) December 27, 2022
Witless huckster, heal thyself.
Dude has been supporting Democrats and democrat policy for a decade but continues to believe he has any remaining credibility within the Republican party.
Kristol has no idea what conservatism means and proves it every day. https://t.co/xjg0HWsqQK
