What to make of the 28-year-old columnist's contempt for the GOP—and its would-be reformers
Joshua A. "Josh" Barro is an American opinion journalist who identifies as neoliberal and Republican. He is the current politics editor at Business Insider. He has previously worked as a Senior Fellow at the Manhattan Institute for Policy Research, as a real estate banker for Wells Fargo, and as the lead writer for the Ticker, an economics and politics blog hosted by Bloomberg L.P. He has a bachelor's degree in psychology from Harvard.
He appears regularly on Bloomberg Television and has appeared on Real Time with Bill Maher on HBO and on All In with Chris Hayes on MSNBC. In early 2013, he was a prominent supporter of a potential trillion dollar coin, although by late 2013 he had changed his mind. Time named Barro's Twitter feed one of "The 140 Best Twitter Feeds of 2013," one of ten in the Politics category. In 2012, Forbes selected him as one of the "30 Under 30" media "brightest stars under the age of 30," and David Brooks listed him as part of the "vibrant and increasingly influential center-right conversation." A former aide of Barack Obama named Barro among a short list of the President's favorite columnists. Barro describes himself as Republican, but has expressed opposition to many current policies of the Republican Party. He has been described by others as conservative, liberal and libertarian. Barro lives in Queens, New York. He is gay and has written in support of same-sex marriage. Barro is also an atheist. His father is macroeconomist Robert Barro.
