The brilliant wrestling match tweet
Washington Times ^ | Wednesday, July 5, 2017 | \Tammy Bruce

Posted on 07/05/2017 8:10:48 AM PDT by GonzoII

There are many discussions about the President Trump “wrestling” CNN tweet, but it’s time to get to the heart of the matter: that the tweet was brilliant, anticipating a ridiculously overwrought reaction by the legacy media, and boy, did they deliver.

It’s one thing to say the media is fake and can’t be trusted, and quite another to show it to the American people. So consumed with their loathing of the president, some in the legacy media can’t see past themselves and did exactly what you’d expect the pathologically obsessed to do: pathologically obsess.

While everyone else was laughing at the tweet of a staged pro-wrestling stunt from years ago, various CNN news actors insisted their lives were now at risk. This proved the president’s point that the network is not serious, on a singular mission to destroy the president, and ergo can’t be trusted to report what really matters to the American people.

But, but, but Dr. K says it UNPRESIDENTIAL.

I’m so confused. Who to believe. Trump or Dr. K. Trump or Dr. K, Trump or Dr. K?

Well, since Dr. K has been wrong for months on what he tells us about Trump I guess I’m going to go along with Trump on this one.

And the next one. And the one after that. And ...

The Tweet was unpresidential, ungentlemanly, rude and crude which helped make it absolutely hilarious and typical WWF cannon fodder. Well done Trump! The MSM had no frame of reference for understanding or replying to the video which exposed them as the elite shrill shrews they have become.

“...various CNN news actors insisted their lives were now at risk.”

Love the way she calls them “news actors”

Great piece.

Here's what this one reminds me of...

Everybody in the world knows who Jesse (the Mind) Ventura is.

Ever heard of a cat named Adlai E. Stephenson III? Probably not, right? Adlai 3 was being touted as the next dem superstar, presidential material if ever such a thing existed. The final step on the path to the White House for Adlai 3 was the governorship of Minnesota. That should have been easy, right? But Adlai 3 was blown out of that race by Jesse the Mind Ventura, largely with the aid of political ads showing Jesse the Mind body-slamming the "Evil Special Interest Man ", obviously representing Adlai 3...

Can you imagine being a fly on the wall at DNC headquarters in Minnesota the night that stuff went down???

I believe you have to think about that for a while to grasp how funny it really is..,

What I mean is that if Republicans had tried to campaign against or argue against Adlai 3 by talking about Nietzsche, Plato, Kant and anything else like that, they would have lost badly; the dem voting blocks, not comprehending any of that at all, would have simply gone into the voting booths and voted the way their masters had instructed. But can you imagine the dem voting blocks watching Jesse the Mind body-slamming the "Evil Special Interest Man" on their TVs?

Quote:
WHOAAAA, MUTHA-*****, thas some real **** theah, man, ain't no way I's votin fo Adlai 3 aftah Jesse the Mind done slammed his butt like that man!!!!

Quote:
SHEEEEEEE-IT MON, I din known them demokkkrats was runnin a punk like that fo govner man, I's votin fo Jesse the Mind man.....

They say old Adlai E three has been living in a Northern forest since that time, pretty much ashamed to show his face in public. Hopefully the same will happen to the punk losers who run CNN...

If it weren't so amusing to watch them rise to the bait time after time it would get to be boring. It's like watching Moe abuse the other two stooges. They never see it coming.

Cost to President Trump for his tweet: $0

Cost to CNN: 20% of their ratings = $ millions.

Wonder if Dr Krauthammer is aware of Truman's threats of bodily injury – to a couple of parts of a certain man's anatomy? And that Truman's threats were expressed via official White House stationery?

Iirc Truman was angry with a critic of his daughter Margaret's musical ability.

HST has been lionized in recent years, and his crudeness has either been glossed over, or retrospectively made into a virtue.

But had Twitter existed in the 50s, who know what gems 'Give 'em hell Harry" would've tweeted?

CNN = Coward News Network

CNN = Corleone News Network (for engaging in threats against the kid who created the hilarious WWE video)

Fake News liars, cowards, sanctimonious hypocrites, CNN laid bare exactly who they are.

Hey CNN, go back to your fainting couches, pearl-grabbing and your pink p**sy caps. What a bunch of hysterical crybaby cowards,everyone is mocking you right now!!!

Was it a dream, but it was thought Dr. K was completely incorrect about BO’B as well. I suspect the Doc even voted for the boob. Dr. K, meaning no disrespect, sir, but you at times seem like an arrogant jerk.

Dr. K is Charles Krauthammer from Fox News.
