Lewis only opposes whoever holds unscrutinized power
Lewis's consistent principle is to be oppositional toward whichever group holds the most cultural power and is being insufficiently scrutinized at a given time, which is why she spent the last four years writing about the left's overreach and expects to spend the next four writing about Trump's overreach—the thing she is against is overreach itself.
