in Montana, Trump said he believed it was a female.
NYT claims they got the op-ed via an intermediary?

I think this anonymous character is pure fiction. Just something that is part of a coordinated effort to bolster the left using the 25th amendment when all else fails.

“Trump isn’t dividing the GOP. His policies have forged a white quadruple alliance of plutocrats, George Babbitts, neo-Confederate yahoos and Christians of the Jesus-loves-me-but-He-can’t-stand-you-persuasion.”
That seems like a fair and balanced political assessment of Trump supporters. These people are deranged.

Berry pretty much covers every Leftist cliche and talking point. I’ll bet that he has a closet full of dresses.

More likely that people in the middle will see this as yet another unfair attack and sympathize with POTUS Trump.

Anonymous is not a bonafide Republican. No real Republican would go to the New York Times.

“Mitch McConnell, Paul Ryan and the rest of the GOP brass are still aboard the Trump clown car. “

LOL

“Trump isn’t dividing the GOP. His policies have forged a white quadruple alliance of plutocrats, George Babbitts, neo-Confederate yahoos and Christians of the Jesus-loves-me-but-He-can’t-stand-you-persuasion. “

This Dingbat still doesn’t know the “Trump supporters are all racists” line isn’t working.

How deep inside of your bubble can you reside?

Apparently in DC the circle-jerk of TrumpHate is impenetrable.

Well, just golly gee. I don’t care what the left thinks of me.

If they want to worry about what I think of them, I won’t try to stop them, of course.

Anonymous Won’t Scare Off Diehard Trump Supporters

Nor will anything else invented or solicited by NYT.

Let me translate the article for you.

There is one and only one probable suspect for the author of the piece for which real evidence exists to back the charge, and that person is named Sarah Jeong.

She - a known radical and very extreme character - was hired to the editorial board just a month ago, and this op-ed was published in those very pages. She is a new hire and this is a new tactic. It makes perfect sense that the new tactic came about as a direct result of the new hire - more sense than any other explanation on the table, including the ludicrous face-value explanation they wanted people to believe.

Other slime creatures in the media ALREADY KNOW it is a hoax. That is why you are seeing them back off so soon - it blew up in their faces and this tar baby is going to stick like glue to anyone involved, for a long, long time.

I declare that Sarah Jeong is the source of the article, and I challenge her and anyone else to prove me wrong.

Anonymous, my ass. Since when is the Fake News Media reluctant to name a Trump critic?

If Mike Pence was the "anonymous" source, the Fake News Media would be shouting from the dung heap, "Vice President Pence Writes Piece Critical of President Trump".

Or it was one his cabinet secretaries or advisors or anyone else with close ties to President Trump.

This is a fraud, through and through.

I had a friend in grade school who liked to try to get guys to get in a fight by telling one that the other called him an asshole. Most of the time it didn't work but sometimes it did.

I actually agree with a lot of what this author says, although I would have chosen a less derogatory way of saying it. Basically, Trump enjoys widespread support among republicans. That’s definitely true. I love the way these guys are writing newspaper articles about other newspaper articles that are predicated on a totally unverified anonymous source. These guys remind me of a dog licking his own balls.

I don’t really care what those people think of me any more. Not that I ever really did care much.
It’s totally irrelevant.
