William Kristol, son of Trotsky friend and communist Irving Kristol, formally became Democrat.
Neocon founding father Irving split with the communist party to become "conservative" when Stalin took over from Trotsky etc.. who shared Kristol's non-Russian ethnicity.
Ex-communists destroyed the Christian Birch Society conservative's reputations and then gatekeeped what conservatism was.
Constant wars in the middle east and the US always has to stay "or else the Christian Kurds will die". And the suckers fall for it every time.
