Jennifer Rubin is a columnist for The Washington Post and commentator for MSNBC. Once upon a time she was considered a conservative writer—indeed, her hiring by The Post in 2010 was met with controversy specifically because the establishment liberal paper had hired a right-leaning blogger. In 2013, WaPo's former ombudsman wrote an open letter calling on Jeff Bezos, who had then just bought the newspaper, to fire her for being too pro-Romney and anti-Obama.
Times have certainly changed. Ever since Donald Trump burst onto the scene, Rubin has become a prolific Never Trump writer and commentator; if the dictionary had an entry for Never Trump, her picture would appear next to it. She inveighs constantly against Trump, along with everyone and everything that helps to normalize him. She recently called for people to boycott MSNBC, one of her employers, as a result of Morning Joe hosts Joe Scarborough and Mika Brzezinski deciding to meet with Trump. Needless to say, she no longer identifies as a conservative.
