Political pundits: We're fired!
The Washington Examiner ^ | November 9, 2016 | Dustin Siggins

Posted on 11/09/2016 6:09:35 AM PST by kevcol

Likewise, millions of blue-collar voters who have been sacrificed for political gain by establishment-approved politicians in both parties made their voices heard. Political correctness was thrown out the window, the GOP's slide towards amnesty was halted and corrupt partnerships between big government and big business were put on notice.

Second, it's about time the chattering class was knocked off its perch. People who add no value to the nation's economy and spend most of their time denigrating Americans as stupid and unable to function without a nanny government were sent reeling. The American people were heard loud and clear, throwing pollsters and pundits alike into hysteria. Pundits: We're fired. Plain and simple.

I wish Trump could legally give them all the boot from the press pool. Forget the main stream media. Put in some bloggers who ran the stories to help him get elected.

I would allow them into the press room on one condition—a dress code.

A dunce cap would be mandatory!

Big government, big business, and BIG MEDIA, the trinity of destruction. Trump’s victory last night was the direct result of 0bama and his howling mobs of hate-filled supporters in congress, academia and the media who have run roughshod over normal, every day Americans for the last 8 years. As they drove everyone’s wages down with cheap illegal labor, they scolded, badgered, and threatened us with dire consequences if we dared complain about their excesses.

This article touches on one of the beautiful aspects of Trump’s victory. He owes nobody nothing. He didn’t have to peddle his ass to every hack and “connected” pol to achieve victory. To the contrary, he fought tooth and nail against them. He didn’t have to raise hundreds of millions as he didn’t spend all that much relatively speaking. Thus he is not beholden to the bundlers and myriads of political money men - the donor class. The establishment. He is in a position to actually keep the promises he made on the campaign trail. For the first time in...maybe ever....we have a President who is entirely his own man.

Under orders from Hillary, the media created false polls....now they're trying to 'splain them.

Meanwhile, on Novemeber 8th, millions of Trump voters streamed to the polls defying the media the glory of their false polls..

The list of must-dos for Trump is mind-boggling, and it will be impossible to satisfy everyone on every issue. I trust he will prioritize wisely, and pray his supporters don’t abandon him over unrealistic expectations. JHMO

I heard someone say last night that Hillary had almost two billion $$$ available to her campaign.

I would hope (as I’ve said before on this forum) that PresElect Trump should exclude the press from his flights; now and as POTUS.

Liability concerns?
Yes, but stop giving these leaches a free ride to any activities of the Executive.

He can.
He can give as much exclusive information as he wishes to alternate sources.

Bypassing them is exactly the same as firing them.

Drudge is an oddball. Kind of a recluse.

He would never want to be in the press pool but he will take all the info he can get.

Drudge deserves it.

He got Clinton TWICE.

Dr. Sabato at least owned up to it and said the pundit class effed up galactically.

Absolutely! You don’t have to be an American to be part of the WH Press pool. My bad!
