# Jennifer Rubin Jennifer Rubin is a [[Washington Post]] opinion columnist who underwent a public ideological transformation from [[Neoconservatism]] to anti-Trump liberalism during the Trump era. She originally wrote the Post's "Right Turn" blog as a conservative voice, but became one of the most vocal [[Republican Party]] critics of [[Donald Trump]] in mainstream media. Her evolution mirrors a broader pattern of Never Trump commentators whose opposition to Trumpism led them to abandon conservative positions on issues beyond Trump himself. Rubin's shift has made her a frequent target of criticism from both the right—who view her as a turncoat—and the left—who question the depth of her conversion.
