My Take
Charles Krauthammer commands my respect less for his politics than for his intellectual honesty. A psychiatrist who became a Pulitzer-winning columnist, he had the rare courage to follow his own reasoning from liberal beginnings toward independent conservatism, rather than freeze into a tribe. That willingness to change your mind in public, against the pull of an audience, is something I admire deeply. With an Oxford-trained intellect, he made his living entirely through the discipline of argument, syndicated to over 400 publications. Whether or not one agreed with him, he believed words should be earned by thought. His 2018 passing left a quieter discourse.
