This could make a person nauseous - or it might make you laugh (i.e., WINNING).
According to an article in Salon written by Don Foster,following his detailed analysis, Foster says the administration official behind the NYT OpEd hit piece is...dun dun dun dunnnnnn...Secretary of Defense Jim Mattis!
The last line of the “expose” by this writer, touted as the Professor who outed Joe Klein as the writer of PRIMARY COLORS in 1996, “If I were Donald Trump at this moment, I would not be worried about impeachment. I’d be sweating a military coup.”
ransomnote: I’m not making that up. It’s not in The Onion or other parody website. Here’s the link:
ransomNote: I know I’m not the only one who believes that Trump surrounded himself with generals, and included that display of military support at his inauguration, because, if Trump had been assassinated, they’d already have been in place and ready to defend us from the Deep State’s efforts to takeover the U.S. government.
I have to conclude that either Foster is astoundingly stupid, and/or this is just another side dish to the NYT OpEd false portrayal of Trump’s administration, and/or the Deep State wanted to blame the general(s) for any coup the clumsy/failing/fumbling Deep State tried to pull off.
That is, indeed, my enthusiastic Don Foster. I know he’s to-the-wall liberal but, at least, this comforts me that he’s reading Trump’s writing and Trump supporters. Someday I can hope it will sink in. Still love him deeply.
Blaming Mattis for the op-ed IS a perfect way to make Trump look out of his depth. And from salon? Just saying...
I think you’re right. Your conclusion is the most plausible possibility, imho.
The NYT is no better than PRAVDA or Baghdad Bob.
Just look at the last couple of weeks:
1) Bogus “Anonymous” piece
2) Bogus “RR was conspiring” piece.
These of course follow 2 years of NOTHING BUT FILTHY GARBAGE concerning POTUS, AMERICA, our CULTURE etc.
I continue to think the UTTER DISINTEGRATION of the CREDIBILITY of the PRESS, who were actually enshrined in the First Amendment, is one of the more astonishing outcomes of these times.
The TRADITIONAL PRESS WILL NEVER RECOVER. A new concept, and new institutions will have to evolve.
I don’t know how it is that the DS keeps trying to interfere with relationship with POTUS and those same generals i.e. Kelly + Mattis. In this case, particularly, the dots don’t connect - RR is DoJ with nothing to do with DoD. It’s like they just make this stuff up lol.
I won’t ping this out, but this hit piece by the NYT is reprehensible..
