Klein is projecting to the max here. Of course, Vox itself is a manifestation of his own outsized ego.

Funny—I thought that was Bill Clinton’s superpower too.

After all, if the media can’t stop him, then what chance do the Democrats have? What chance do America’s enemies have?

The Donald is inside the MSM, GOPe and DIMS OODA loop 24/7
and there is nothing they can do about it.

Keep trying to tell us what to think wacko propagandists! We are not RATS. We have brains and think for ourselves.

I actually took the article as a left-handed compliment of Don Trump.

I can’t remember what extraordinary powers the Green Lantern had, though I read his adventures as a kid. I’m pretty sure he wasn’t impervious to embarrassment, but didn’t his writers just recently turn him into a rump wrangler?
Interesting article. Trump is turning things upside down and inside out.

This attraction to Trump, I believe, is based on his willingness to hit back against the media, to tell uncomfortable truths about our country in a straightforward manner, and to dump on political correctness.
All of which I applaud.
I just don't think we're voting ourselves out of this mess, even if the Donald wins the White House, and starts saying, "You're fired!" to thousands of federal bureaucrats.

Trump just tells the truth. The truth is always a HUGE embarrassment to the Left.

Reagan fired 11,000 striking air traffic controllers, against the advice of—just about everyone.
You might be surprised at what The Donald is capable of doing? Really? He’s as loose a cannon as many voters have ever seen.

“I just don’t think we’re voting ourselves out of this mess, even if the Donald wins the White House, and starts saying, “You’re fired!” to thousands of federal bureaucrats.”
Yeah, but it’s a good start, isn’t it.

even if the Donald wins the White House, and starts saying, "You're fired!" to thousands of federal bureaucrats. That is precisely, EXACTLY what the Washington establishment is worried about. About three-quarters of federal employees could go without any appreciable impact. Federal hiring has been a make-work project for decades. It has to end somewhere. They are quite worried it might be ending here.
