When Democrats Attack

Neighbors say Carter was a quarrelsome, argumentative man. Court records claim Carter had a history of disputes with multiple neighbors. His front yard was crowded with cars and hand lettered anti-Trump signs.

Y'all ready fo some spin?

But the disputes along the block were not political, but personal. Neighbors say they were fueled apparently by some unknown anger inside Carter's head.

Scandal Rocks The Fourth Estate: Schieffer Caught Normalizing The President

If you want to win the argument for the proliferation of gross media bias and you only have 1:15 to do so, I recommend the following video.

We thought Bob Schieffer had retired but like a case of herpes, he just keeps coming back. The normalizing charge could get him blacklisted, however.

Hat tip to Fire Andrea Mitchell.

WILL SCHIEFFER GET PROBATION?

The Left's Politicization Of Absolutely Everything

There used to be indoctrination safe spaces. Sporting events, popular music, movies, the weather including day to day climate change to name but a few political-free zones. Times change.

Now, an event as innocuous as Super Bowl champions visiting the White House is politicized by CNN, NYT and as I first heard about this, MSN. Maybe this does not qualify as overt bearing of false witness. Maybe this should be filed under "half-truth." Maybe the echo chamber just honestly got the story wrong.

NAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHH! Just more fake news.



WILL TRUMP DERANGEMENT SYNDROME EVER END?

NBC’s Malcolm Nance calls for suicide bombing of Trump property in Istanbul

Thanks to Fire Andrea Mitchell for the story.

More Racist Thuggery From San Diego

MSM can spin this any way they like and blame Donald Trump for violence directed against his supporters. Worse than the spin is the sanitizing of the violence.

BERNIE'S BROWNSHIRTS

A Vote Against Trump Is A Vote For...

1. Thuggery?

2. Flag burning?

3. Terrorism?

4. Anti-Americanism?

5. Socialism?

6. Soros?

7. Hillary?

OK, I plead guilty to redundancy.


Are there ANY decent Democrats left? Any amongst the conspicuously compassionate who will denounce Sanders' thugs? No one?



"America Was Never Great!" Then please return to your great country. Problem solved.



They're just here to burn the flags Americans can't be bothered to burn.
They're just here to assault and batter the citizens Americans can't be bothered to assault and batter.



Let us extend a measure of gratitude to the honest Leftists who have revealed their true values, their true selves, their true agenda. Thank you for providing a measure of contrast that we will all take to the voting booth.

Brownshirts In San Diego Redux

This has already been posted as part of a playlist and as good as this playlist is, we should back up and look at this video. Listen carefully and the guy with the F Trump shirt reveals that he is a public school history teacher. Say no more.

Trump Derangement Syndrome

This blogger supports Ted Cruz for president until further notice. With that stated, I would probably support a Trump presidential bid should he win the nomination. I have grown to respect and to like the man and even though I have staunch disagreements with the Donald he has provided a voice for the silent majority, a group that deserves to be treated more like citizens and less like cattle.

Maybe because Trump personalizes opposition he generates equal and opposite reactions. Or something like that. I dare say that if Bush or Christie had grabbed the lead and thumbed his nose at the field, "National Review Online" would not assemble a special "Against Jeb" edition.

How can I be so sure of that proposition? Because "National Review" did nothing of the sort when Romney, McCain, Bush II, Dole or Bush I lead the pack. With the usual disclaimers about Conservatism being more of a political coalition than an undeviating philosophy, we should ask ourselves "who is more truly conservative?"

Is Trump less conservative than the aforementioned Jeb or Christie? Is he less conservative than the GOP's last five presidential candidates? We know the answers. Surely there is something else that is generating all this animus.

Many of us realized decades ago that the primary political struggle was not Left v. Right nor Lib v. Con. It was Insider v. Outsider. Angelo Codevilla nailed it in his infamous "American Spectator" piece (I am not linking it because you should have already read it).

Codevilla is of the opinion that the Outsiders--which he defines as the Country Class--would eventually say "enough is enough." A leader would emerge who spoke for them. I for one thought it would be someone more cowboy than yankee and I did not expect a celebrity to lead the charge. I too, am a failed Jeremiah.

Incidentally, Codevilla takes the position that someone like Trunp, but not Trump himself, will lead the outsiders. In a Powerline tour de force Codevilla seems to make the case for the Donald but abruptly concludes that Trump is no statesman (to which most readers respond, "So what?")

Maybe Jonah Goldberg dislikes Trump because Donald said Jonah couldn't even buy a pair of pants. Trump is given to reflexive insult as well as insult overkill. That might explain some of the hostility but who does not believe that something deeper is at play? Perhaps the Ericksons and Levins are not as relevant as they thought they were and are not the kingmakers they would like to be. Getting gruffly reminded of one's true status, is that not the origin of Trump Derangement Syndrome?
