Good piece.

Depressing though to see a “suburban woman” yesterday quoted as saying she hopes Trump is voted out because of all the messy hearings and political fighting. She’s sick of it.

Even without removal, Trump is being damaged with the low information average dolt catching a few slanderous comments on the airport TV during a layover. Guy on the next seat: “I heard on TV Trump’s administration if the most corrupt in history.” “Yeah, heard that, too.”

Yep, the enemedia keep banging away supporting the leftist lies.

Yes this is worrisome. Women are especially vulnerable to the notion of getting rid of Trump so we can end all this strife.

".... Even without removal, Trump is being damaged...."

Trump's been damaged in the MSM and in the eyes of the democRATS the moment he came down that escalator in Trump Tower to announce he was running for president.

But we're lucky. This man is not just your average man or politician. He's a winner and a fighter and he's not going anywhere.

He will be reelected in 2020 going away. No one can touch him, "damaged" or not.

Women — urban, aborters, suburban, college, soccer moms, on welfare, older on meds — is there anything they don’t know? Thing is, there’s too many of these.

On the sane side of the spectrum, but far far fewer...

The number of morons in America that still watch TV to get their news is dwindling by the day

I have never had cable television in my house in my entire adult life

To boot , with two young males in my care , I don’t have Internet at my house either far too dangerous for their young minds

So just remember three years ago this time we learned that there is only one poll that counts - this is still just as true today

The media is trying their best to Linsky right now to throw as much mud at Trop is they can because they know what’s coming - a reckoning for all of their illegal activities in generating the Russia hoax

If there are no indictments of Democrats for all of their illegal activities we will know that this country is lost And the deep state has won

Good piece.

Agreed.

This is what all Republicans have faced, to one degree or another, for all my lifetime (with the limited exception of President Eisenhower). The problem is caused by

• The fact that the wire services created a cartel of all major US journalism.

• The fact that “if it bleeds, it leads,” journalism promotes bad (the opposite of “in the public interest”) news which it promotes as important and “objective.” This perspective (“bias”) inherently slants journalism in favor of bigger government.

• The unanimous 1964 New York Times Co. v. Sullivan Warren Court decision has inhibited libel suits by Republicans (exclusively, in the sense that Democrats don’t get libeled).

Journalists pretend that the First Amendment gives them, essentially, a priestly function of defining the public interest - and exploit that position exclusively for their own interest. There is one potential sovereign remedy: the journalism cartel, and the FCC and FEC which enable/empower it, must be sued under antitrust law.

And - in the teeth of the Sullivan decision - the journalism cartel must be sued for $billions in damages for libel. As Antonin Scalia explained, the Bill of Rights was carefully crafted to be a guarantee that no right of any American was, or would in future be, changed by the Constitution. Pace the Warren Court, the right to redress if libeled was untouched by 1A.
