WaPo Columnist Jennifer Rubin Insults Trump Voters, Attacks Her Own Paper for Trying to Reach Them
“there’s nothing that The Washington Post could possibly do that would have those people take out a subscription”
Washington Post columnist Jennifer Rubin recently participated in a public event to discuss the outcome of the 2024 election and reinforced her image as one of the biggest haters of all things Trump. She was paired with George Conway, another soldier in the never-Trump army of fools.
Washington Post owner Jeff Bezos has said that he wants the paper to have more conservative writers for the sake of balance and to reach out to Trump voters. Rubin clearly disagrees. She used this opportunity to insult Trump supporters and even lashed out at her own paper.
If a museum of Trump Derangement Syndrome is ever created, Jennifer Rubin deserves her own dedicated wing.

Washington Post columnist attacks paper trying to reach out to ‘MAGA readers’: ‘Logical fallacy’
Washington Post columnist Jennifer Rubin called out media outlets like her own paper for trying to appeal to “MAGA readers” after the election.
The opinion columnist joined anti-Trump critic George Conway at an event at the 92NY Center for Culture & Arts on Dec. 15 to talk about the aftermath of the 2024 election, which saw President-elect Donald Trump win a second term.
After what she claims have been multiple examples of the media capitulating to Trump since then, Rubin singled out her own publication for wanting to reach out to Trump voters.
“People ask me all the time, why is the media so mamsy-pamsey? And there are two explanations,” Rubin began. “The one is, they are convinced that if they would just move a little bit to the right, all those MAGA readers out there — now, you’ll notice the contradiction in terms, ‘MAGA readers’ — would pick up The Washington Post, and they would have more readers. What is the logical fallacy here? Yes, reader. And there’s nothing that The Washington Post could possibly do that would have those people take out a subscription. But I’m convinced they’re in there someplace.”
Though Rubin has frequently criticized the Washington Post, particularly its owner Jeff Bezos, for trying to become more politically neutral, she has made no effort to resign out of protest and even joked about rebelling from within the paper.

It’s ironic that Rubin used to be considered one of the Washington Post’s conservative writers but like many others, she has abandoned almost everything she ever claimed to believe over her pathological hatred of Trump.
Remember, this is the same woman who advised Democrats to say ‘Republicans want to kill your kids’ just days before the election:
Here we have the @washingtonpost's Jen Rubin saying "Republicans want to kill your kids, it’s actually true."
Which is weird when you consider liberals literally support killing babies, @JRubinBlogger. pic.twitter.com/E4PzNdHzRh

The Washington Post lost almost $77 million this year. If Jeff Bezos wants the paper to stay on that trajectory, he should encourage Jennifer Rubin to just keep talking.

Yikes – 2d video, now that’s a turkey neck. No wonder why the turtleneck jersey in the 1st video.
Ugly neck, ugly personality.
Ugly heart.
She could have worn a scarf to hide that hideous neck.
Realistically, no Conservative should join ANY liberal venue unless they are hopelessly masochistic.
Liberals are drenched in hatred and should be avoided at all costs. There is no good reason or comfortable effect for being around any of these nasty loons.
Conservative gunwriter Alan Korwin continually urges gun owners to join organizations like the ACLU and the Society of Professional Journalists so we’ll “know what the enemy is doing.” My take on this advice is that one of us can take the hit for the whole team and then report on it.
Just a couple of years ago, we, yes, we had someone who “took the hit” for us by watching MSNBC’s “Morning Joe” and providing a highlight summary so we would know what foolishness they were spewing without the rest of us having to endure first-hand person experience.
I don’t know where that person went (committed to a secure institution perhaps) nor when the reports stopped coming in….
So just concede defeat? I’m glad the editors of LI don’t believe you and continue the good fight
You don’t make genuine arguments. Thus, you are disqualified.
JR, of course I don’t mean that we shouldn’t engage with them and make our case. But should we purposely enter zones like “The (Nasty) View” or argue with a passel of zombies shouting over us? These jerks always seem to manage to set us up to appear in constant defeat on any given day. Perhaps my comment was too general.
“So just concede defeat?”
That’s not what he said, toolbag.
Your reading comprehension is on par with your troll-fu, which hovers around zero.
Conservative opinion isn’t to attract Trump voters but to educate leftist voters.
Impossible task.
In case you haven’t noticed, leftist voters are not interested in listening to anyone except each other. Dissenting opinion is not allowed
I used to like what she wrote when she was a regular over at Commentary (I’m obviously getting old) but it’s like she’s a different person entirely now. She’s absolutely bonkers.
TDS will do that to people. She really needs to get help before she hurts herself or someone else.
That, or she writes what is expected of her for whatever publication she is writing for. In short, a weathervane.
If a person is reasonable and has common sense, they will realize that a paper that lies most of the time is not trustworthy enough to buy just because they have a token conservative on staff. Bezos will have to do more than that to get conservatives to re-subscribe.
I thought that was a guy in a dress like a lot of the other liberals these days.
A disgusting BIGOTED harpy.
She’s useless and deserves Ø attention in any way, shape, or form.
That is all.
Because ABC wouldn’t want to turn over its communications in discovery. Was that supposed to be a trick question?
I love watching my competition’s unsupervised power tools careening around his workshop, chewing up his furniture.
Remember when they used to claim this insufferable far leftist bint was a ‘conservative’?
Pepperidge Farms remembers.
She is one ugly woman…inside and out. Her hate is destroying her.
$77 million in losses. Those are rookie numbers for Rubin. She wants to lose ALL the money by making the WaPo’s appeal even more selective.
(two movie references in one)
I used to comment at the WaPo. To be able to comment these days at the WaPo, you need to be a subscriber. If I were to become a WaPo subscriber, I would be paying a part of Jennifer Rubin’s salary. I am not going to be played for a fool by paying someone who insults me.
Ideologues such as Jen Rubin are totes fines with these sorts of unhealthy, stark divides into Team Blue and Team Red. I suspect she wouldn’t be ok with an actual division b/c she probably recognizes there ain’t enough agriculture, fossil fuel drilling/refining or electricity production in DC or the rest of Team Blue territory to sustain modernity.
And this is where Bezos should take a page out of the Trump book and tell her,,m your fired!
Crawl back to your bubble Jennifer
She is highly intelligent and was an accomplished, successful lawyer. Her problem is that like many of her background she has failed to really assimilate as a true American and identifies more with the majority of her religion and sees herself as a citizen of the world.
You can make the point about this particular columnist without the antisemitic canard.
Anybody who cares what Jen Rubin thinks is mentally defective.
I was (emphasis was) a Post subscriber for about 50 years. This nut-job Jennifer Rubin was never a conservative. They did, at one time, flack her as being “on the right” but at the Post this only meant that she thought Marx , Stalin, Castro and Mao were a bit too extreme. Just a bit.
