Another press shill attacks Trump as unfit, forgetting how bad Obama was
American Thinker.com ^ | February 22, 2018 | Jack Hellner

On Wednesday there was an opinion piece in the Wall Street Journal by William Galston titled: "The Clear and Present Danger of Trump.”

A bold insert said:

His weekend Twitter outburst calls into question his ability to discharge his powers.

The article starts off:

In business, it is said, the customer is always right. Politics is more complicated, because citizens are called upon to be more than consumers.

“The people commonly intend the public good,” Alexander Hamilton wrote in Federalist 71, “but their good sense would despise the adulator who should pretend that they always reason right about the means of promoting it.”

Within the article it says:

In November 2016, 46% of the American people made a mistake, elevating to the highest office in the land a man incapable of discharging its duties. Now our country and our friends around the world are wrestling with the consequences.

I believe it is the people who elected a community organizer in 2008 and 2012 who wanted to remake the United States that merited the statement claiming such voters “made a mistake, elevating to the highest office of the land a man incapable of discharging his duties. Now our country and our friends around the world are wrestling with the consequences.”

I never saw the fake media shills who are blaring about Trump all and sundry ever hold Obama accountable.

What is surprising and disappointing is that the WSJ published that garbage.

Calypso Louis and the Congressional Black Caucus were on Obama's speed-dial, getting "the latest" from the Halfrican.

Then-Ill State Sen Obama at a meeting of the Congressional Black Caucus.

The CBC suppressed this image to dupe Americans into voting for Obama for president.

Rumors persist that Obama wasn't born here. Like the fictional Philip Nolan.....”The Man Without a Country,”
Obama seems to have renounced our nation......acts like he never heard of the United States of America.

Even more egregious one could conclude Obama might have given explicit orders.......
”no one in the Democrat party should ever mention the United States of America ever again.”

==================================

Obama seems more at home in Kenya.......meddling in their elections.

Barack Obama with Mohamed Abdi, Somali muslim candidate for Mandera East, Kenya who lost.

Galston must be so proud of the "stylish" ex-First Lady Michelle.

Reporting ‘news’ ended a long, long time ago with the lametard media...it is nothing but utter contempt and hatred that is reported as ‘news.’

This sh** is going to back fire on these SOBs....

Yes, I was truly surprised when I saw this article yesterday. And then today they had a piece by Karl Rove, doing his usual tongue-clucking.

Sometimes I too wish Trump would just let them simmer down a bit, but at the same time, unless he stays “in their face,” they’ll just ignore him and pretend Clinton won the election.
