“This administration is populated by people who’ve spent their careers bashing government. They’re not just small-government conservatives—they’re Grover Norquist, strangle-it-in-the-bathtub conservatives. It’s a cognitive disconnect for them to be able to do something well in an arena that they have so derided and reviled all these years.”

“In some extreme neo-conservative circles,” there have also been calls for “coercive measures against Saudi Arabia,” [Ted Galen Carpenter of the libertarian Cato Institute] noted.

Something to look forward to under four more years.
