Trump again lashes out at NY Times, claims it's going on a 'racism witch hunt'
The Hill ^ | 08/18/19 08:52 AM EDT | Justin Wise

President Trump early Sunday lashed out at The New York Times over what he views as unfair coverage, this time claiming that it is engaging in a "racism witch hunt."

"The Failing New York Times, in one of the most devastating portrayals of bad journalism in history, got caught by a leaker that they are shifting from their Phony Russian Collusion Narrative (the Mueller Report & his testimony were a total disaster), to a Racism Witch Hunt," Trump tweeted, apparently referencing a leaked transcript of a meeting the newspaper's executive editor, Dean Baquet, held with staff last week.

"'Journalism' has reached a new low in the history of our Country. It is nothing more than an evil propaganda machine for the Democrat Party. The reporting is so false, biased and evil that it has now become a very sick joke," he continued before claiming that the "the public is aware!"

Of course according to the Hill and rest of the Lying Leftist Media, Trump's just making all this stuff up.

The headline SHOULD read: "NY Times planning to go on a 'racism witch hunt'" but that would be the truth, something the Lying Leftist Media doesn't deal in.

Glad PDJT said its.

He needs to do more.

Here’s what I see:

1. Pin drop silence from Barr...no arrests, no indictments.
2. Lindsey Graham straying from his PDJT support leaning towards his PDJT self.
3. Antifas did enough to be called terrorists by PDJT, but he did not.
4. Epstein’s murder, no cooperation from the prison guards...Clintons getting away with it again.

Hard to take.

Full PDJT support from me, and I’ll still crawl over broken glass to vote for him, but his team is leading him off the path that got him here.

Go with your gut, not the gutless.

‘ PDJT says NY Times is engaging in a “racism witch hunt.” ‘

In other news the sun rises in the east and sets in the West.

2. Lindsey Graham straying from his PDJT support leaning towards his PRE- PDJT self.
3. Antifas did enough to be called terrorists by PDJT, but he did not.
4. Epstein’s murder, no cooperation from the prison guards...Clintons getting away with it again.

I turned off the Lame stream media in the mid 80’s. the more international travel id did proves how poor their reporting was. Took another decade to find out why. My consulting company dealt with hundreds of businesses, cities, counties, Ports, Federal and State Agencies. I tested over 1,300 people. Found that 15 - 17% where those who got their ego satisfaction from influencing or controlling people. That's the Politicians, entertainers, Journalists, and most Lawyers. Many entrepreneurs too. They dress well, are personable and are micro managers. Hate working for one.

Trump on the other hand is Results oriented, driven be getting things done. tends to be impatient, but measures you based upon results. If you fail your out.

I could write a book on this. Problem is that 65% are people who are go along and get alongs. Don't get it until it's to late. Sigh

Dean Bacquet is a tool.

And not the sharpest tool in the shed!

Remember the lesson of the Battle of Midway.

The torpedo bomber groups were slaughtered, but it pulled the Japanese CAPs (combat air patrols) down to the deck in their bloodthirsty frenzy to kill those defenseless sheep.

When the dive bombers showed up at just the right time, and at altitude, the Japanese wolves were toothless.

Look at the three-year Media frenzy against Trump. There will be a "just the right time" for the Trump dive bombers to show up over target.

I remember the FR primary wars over Trump in 2015-2016. There was a final NeverTrump bloodbath in March-April of 2016, if you recall.

I'm thinking that the "right time" will be after those months in 2020.

Hope you are right it has been a little bit frustrating lately

“3. Antifas did enough to be called terrorists by PDJT, but he did not.”

I looked for a law that would allow him to do that, but I couldn’t find one. I’d be very interested to find out if there’s a mechanism that allows Antifa to be legally deemed terrorists.

“Here’s what I see:

1. Pin drop silence from Barr...no arrests, no indictments.”

You’re not supposed to “see” anything. An investigation is conducted quietly and effectively until there’s a case to be made against individual or individual(s). That comes with concerted (and planned) well -thought out indictment(s).

It’s baffling how people think sedition the scale of SpyGate should be unwound in a few weeks and they deserve to hear play by play.

If you want to have a clue what may be transpiring with the investigation, then follow Pulitzer worthy John Solomon.

Otherwise, stop complaining that you don’t “see” the investigation. John Brennan, Mifsud, McCabe, Comey, and the Obama WH people see plenty.

Yes, the media is doing just that. I has nothing to do with supposed “justice”, it’s just an attempt to get rid of Trump.

I tend to agree with your analysis.

Trump is preparing the battlefield for what’s about to come.

In the meantime, I’m not about to cast many brickbats at anyone in the Trump administration, especially AG Barr. Remember that just a few weeks ago, he was a hero after releasing the Mueller report.

Everything ... repeat EVERYTHING ... is going to be about timing. Some heroes will be revealed as heels and some heels may be Patriots working underground.

It’s probably too far from the election for indictments. People have short memories. I expect the summer of 2020 is going to be a “long, hot summer” especially if Antifa and BLM riot — which bothers me not at all because they will mainly be destroying their own RAT cities.

He’s Spot on. The MSM is just the propaganda arm of the Democrat Party.
