Now Sullivan is an odd duck, but he represents the logical and sensible side of conservatism. Since he is both Roman Catholic and gay, he has learned to thread the needle carefully. He is calling Trump the worst politician in his lifetime, but he also has some negative opinions of the SJW crowd. He also regards AGW as established fact and has full distain for people who ignore facts if they conflict with their beliefs.
Why is he so unique?
Outside the "Catholic and gay" part I suspect there would be a lot more people like him were it not for the right-wing propaganda machine and the effect it has in a lot of the country outside the major cities. Fox News and conservative talk radio has created a very dangerous bubble.
