We’re over the edge.
***********
For Democrats, politics has always been blood sport. They have a win-at-all-costs mentality and believe that the ends justifies the mean. They are viscous infighters.
And yes, its nice for once to have a Republican president who stands up to these bullies and their allies in the media.
But our country is facing very serious, existential problems right now. We need problems fixed and we need a new direction or we certainly will go over the edge — and off the cliff and into the abyss. I am concerned that some of this tweeting about personalities is becoming a counterproductive distraction to the real work at hand. Political capital is a tenuous thing.
The "Russia" thing is a distraction and a real drag.
This insult might take some of the pressure off the "violence against reporters" that Trump is accused of perpetrating. He's not holding his frustration in. He's venting it in a harmless way.
