News broke on Tuesday that Secretary of State Mike Pompeo had hired long-time “Never Trumper” and former Wall Street Journal editorial writer Mary Kissel as senior adviser for policy and strategic messaging. That’s right, a “Never Trumper” who vehemently opposed the policies Trump campaigned on is now advising Trump’s secretary of state on policy.

This should seem like an oxymoron, a strange coincidence, or an unbelievable stroke of luck on the part of Kissel. Sadly, for Trump supporters, it’s not.
