The paradox the left doesn’t want to face is Trump is WINNING despite every effort by the RINOs and the libtards to stop him.

He doesn’t want a daddy figure. The author wants a King-god. Like Obama. To fill the dark empty corners of his sad lonely atheistic existence.

He’s absentee alright, out three or four days a week campaigning to save this country from the democrat mob. This twit author can only dream that DJT would have been absentee like Barry who would have compassionately found the nearest operating golf course to the Florida Panhandle. Once Trump increases his congressional majorities he’ll show this guy “absenteeism “ over a the next six years.

“Until late 2005, Purdum was a reporter and the Los Angeles bureau chief for The New York Times. From 1994 to 1997, he was a White House correspondent for the Times. He is now the national editor for Vanity Fair magazine.”

Nuff said

He wants a paycheck for his “writing”, at this point they have to make up problems because they have nothing else.

But, but-—we want a President who knows how to FEEL our pain, and not ACT to relieve it! /s

Guess all those rallies are not interaction with America. You really have to be braindead to be a reporter.

We didn’t need a warm, fuzzy president who was going to be our “buddy”.

Bingo!

America sensed both it, and the Republican party needed a "street fighter". A fighter, unlike the then-current president, that was interested in winning in global marketplace and on the global political stage.

Such a male doesn't ordinarily frighten females but does bother snowflake males and the political left.

Trump accomplishes more in his sleep than retarded Libs (oxymoron) do in their lifetimes.

Journalism is a good occupational choice for those unqualified to be educators.

The New York billionaire seems unable to comfort the nation in times of tragedy or celebrate its moments of triumph.

I don't need him to do either. He's the Chief Executive, not Chief Babysitter.

Less reputable than The Onion.
Turning into a MAD magazine parody of themselves.
Makes the Soviet Union-era Pravda and Izvestia look reputable in comparison.

This is the Establishment Media (aka Mainstream Media or MSM) of 2018.

Vandal Savage had a great origin story. He was a cro-magnon man whose exposure to a meteor made him nearly immortal. Just by being alive he learned a lot and eventually helped the out Genghis Khan, Napoleon, etc. knowing and immense amount, especially history, but embracing evil.

For all the problems the Clintons caused, I think she got a bum rap on that driving impaired charge.

They will wish he was absentee when he releases all of the redacted documents a week before the elections. He will redefine the term “October Surprise “.
