About Last Night

More than anything else, a Thomas Pynchon quote comes to mind. Especially while watching the Luntz post-game wrap-up.

Anyone who's read my past assessments of him knows I'm no Trumpeter. But after watching last night's total and undisguised virtual assassination attempt by Megyn Kelly and Chris Wallace, and continued (and wholly unjustified) crowing by Liz Peek and other establishment media whores in their desperate attempts to manipulate public opinion, my low opinion of controlled opposition Faux News just sank even deeper.

These media conspirators-- what else would you call them? -- aren't really attacking The Donald -- he's just an avatar for people attracted to him because they're sick and tired of all the evil bullshit and don't know where to turn, but know it's not toward the RINOs. Those are the ones the elitists really have contempt for.

It looks from where I'm sitting, despite desperate attempts to convince everyone otherwise, like the hit job backfired and all the damage was from blowback. Look for the politics of personal destruction to go to the next level. And if that doesn't work, I won't be surprised to see things get even more personal.

These people never had a good impression of Trump. They were picked and paid to go on with fat boy and say those things in a feeble and vain attempt to inflict damage on Don's campaign. I am not a Trump fan either David but it looks like a lot of people are liking him. Hard not to when you compare the rest of the repug line up to him, especially that pure imbecile Christie.
