Default The Never Trumper Conundrum

From Never Trumper Bret Stephens writing in the NY Times:

Tax cuts. Deregulation. More for the military; less for the United Nations. The Islamic State crushed in its heartland.
Assad hit with cruise missiles. Troops to Afghanistan. Arms for Ukraine. A tougher approach to North Korea.
Jerusalem recognized as Israel’s capital. The Iran deal decertified. Title IX kangaroo courts on campus condemned.
Yes to Keystone. No to Paris. Wall Street roaring and consumer confidence high.

And, of course, Neil Gorsuch on the Supreme Court. What, for a conservative, is there to dislike about this policy
record as the Trump administration rounds out its first year in office?

That’s the question I keep hearing from old friends on the right who voted with misgiving for Donald Trump last
year and now find reasons to like him. I admit it gives me pause. I agree with every one of the policy decisions mentioned above.
But I still wish Hillary Clinton were president.

How does that make sense?
