Reality can be brutal, especially political reality as the Huffington Post seems to have found out. Back in July the Huffington Post went all in on the notion that the Donald Trump candidacy would be ephemeral so they could get away with displaying their bias by consigning Trump stories to the Entertainment, not Politics page. Unfortunately for them, Donald Trump not only lasted through the rest of the summer but he is well in the lead among Republican candidates for the nomination. Obviously at some point, the Huffington Post would be forced to cover Trump like the other candidates and that time appears to be now. However, first let us take a trip back in time to July when the Huffington Post foolishly crawled out on a political limb with this announcement:

Oops! The Huffington Post never imagined the political REALITY in which Trump would not only endure but become the clear front runner for the Republican nomination. Now they have to hope that folks don't notice they are quietly retracting their absurd policy. Unfortunately for them, a certain someone with whom I am very familiar has noticed. Hee! Hee!

Considering all the ignorant liberals who go to Puffington Post, they are more likely to see a Trump article with it being located in the Entertainment section.

With the Dems running a farce nomination process for Hillary, the only reality is Trump. There are some who would call it entertainment.

Thank God America is awakening.

Even Huffington Post is forced to let one eye flutter open for a moment.

THAT is hilarious.

Beck “swore off” all things Trump, several months ago.
