James Howard Kunstler is the brilliant and thought provoking author best known for his book The Long Emergency. He’s a native New Yorker, Jewish, a self described liberal, and he’s been a registered Democrat for his entire adult life.
In the essay below, posted to his blog yesterday, he explains why he’s supporting and voting for Trump in this election. In recent interviews he says he hasn’t left the Democratic Party... the Democratic Party has left him.

He also describes The New York Times (which he’s been reading daily for over 50 years, and which used to be his employer) as destroying itself through dishonesty and bad faith... very true, I’ve been saying that for many years, and the same is true of The Washington Post and most other mainstream outlets.
This piece is well worth reading. He spells out the alarming dangers of the modern Democrat Party and explains why Trump is the far less dangerous choice, from the point of view of a highly intelligent liberal who has not been brainwashed by the wokester crowd.
