Scott Adams wrote a great blog post about this article today - he knew from the start that it would be a hit-piece.

There was a post here on fr from Adam's blog where he describes the hit piece Bloomberg was putting out on him.

“You’ve called women you don’t like fat pigs, dogs, slobs, and disgusting animals,”

At that point, we knew we had a president that wouldn’t lie about what he was thinking :)

Kelly the b.tch blew it and I can’t wait to see her crash and burn at her new gig.

The end of his essay absolutely kills her credibility.

Dead, dead, dead.

At the bottom of Scott’s blog is a link to the favorable article she wrote about the “Spirit Cooking” lady.

It’s a long-winded essay piece, which basically says nothing except some marginal effort to dump on Adams. The writer needs to go back to restaurant reviews.

Uh...maybe because he’s the first non-owned non-establishment candidate we’ve seen in DECADES. As I’ve said many times before, I was a Cruz supporter at the outset but once Trump won the nomination (lol still can’t believe he pulled it off) my choice was clear.

This from the end of the Bloomberg article says a lot:

"(Corrects location of Pleasanton in the seventh paragraph.)"

The author had to correct where Pleasanton was located. . . as if she had not even been there, when she had. She is lost!

God sent Trump to do one mission; destroy Jeb Bush.

Good article that should come to no surprise amongst us true Trump believers here. Skip the middle where it talks about the guy’s 28 year old girl friend, and go to the end where there’s more on Trump.

Many people are mesmerized by Trump, whether it’s when you hear him on tv or in person behind closed doors.

I’m amazed that people like Schumer and the Michael Moore’s aren’t taken in yet as well. IN time they will be won over by the man.

The end of it just proved Adams’s recurring point again that some are watching a different movie about Trump.

Having been following his blogs for a while, seems the piece is pretty objective and fair, though it wants to be a hit piece.

Having read it, now for Scott’s rebuttal...

Then destroying Hillary was just a bonus?

One of my tests of a good, factual piece of writing is that unless there is some reason to know the sex of the writer, you really can't tell. But in this piece, I could tell within the first several paragraphs. Clearly she was carrying the offended woman axe to grind.

That’s EXACTLY what I say to people when they despair about all the trouble Trump is going through right now.

He stopped the Clinton ascendency to power.

If that, of and by itself alone, is not a GREAT achievement, I don’t know what is.

Every thing else is icing on the cake.

Also-—I don’t despair. I get mad maybe, furious even...

But I consider Trump’s election night performance to be set by Devine Power, who isn’t done with Trump yet.
