Perhaps I missed something, but I did not see any response to Prof DeLong's observation that he does not know what a conservative scholar is in the 2020s. The responses were a lot of discussion of scholars who published in the 1950s up through the early 1990s, but as noted what is a conservative in the age of Alito and Trump (in the US context at least)?

Well...
* Someone who says: where we can, we should repurpose our old furniture as we try to rearrange our common home for liberty and prosperity?
* Someone who stands athwart history, yelling “STOP!!!!”?
* Someone who goes the extra mile for bigots—race, class, gender, ethnicity, religion?
* Someone who goes two extra miles for plutocrats?
* Someone who goes three extra miles for kleptocrats?
* Someone who thinks that democracy was a huge mistake—that “if god had not meant them to be sheared, he would not have made them sheep”?
