However, they call this election the ugliest in history for a reason. This time if they play ugly, they know they would be responded in kind. Trump will not take it lying down. He will hit back. He could have October Surprise of his own. There is also an outside player Julian Assange. This time their candidate can be clobbered with October Surprise, too. Now that is very ugly to them. So I agree that this is the ugliest election in recent history, because punch will be thrown in both directions, and more bleeding on the ring, after which it is their candidate who is lying on the mat unconscious.
I have no doubt of that. The public distrust of the press is earned, and as part of the liberal establishment, the reporters are as much fair game as the politicians are.
The elections of the 19th century make this one look like a kids game.
Trump hasn’t brought up the Lolita Express...yet.
