Steve Schmidt: Trump’s Base Is a ‘Mindless’ Cult That Has Devolved into Cheering Water Drinking (McCain’s 2008 presidential campaign manager)
Breitbart ^ | July 16 2020 | PAM KEY

Posted on 07/17/2020 4:40:26 AM PDT by knighthawk

Thursday on MSNBC, Steve Schmidt, John McCain’s 2008 presidential campaign manager, described President Donald Trump’s supporters as “a cult of personality” that mindlessly cheer the president talking about drinking water.

Host Brian Williams said, “I caught an article yesterday, the gist of which is that American passports are useless right now. Let’s ignore for the moment that the pandemic has made travel unreachable, impossible, and unpalatable for most people. If you wanted to, if you had the means or perhaps the urgency, a mission to travel the world, we are allowed as Americans into Turkey, Tanzania and Mexico. Europe is cut off for us. We can’t drive north into the Canadian side of Niagara Falls. We have become pariahs because of our spike.”

Considering the source, this is great.

A spike created by thousands of infected New Yorkers and thousands of infected Mexicans spreading out across the country seeding the virus.

The Republican Party has a history of fielding Presidential candidates who hate the Republican Party and who clearly hope for Democrats to win.

This is the guy that ran the worst campaign for President in GOP history.

Did he think up this putdown all by himself? He is voting for Braindead Biden so consider the source.

The son-of-a-bitch is no good. He teamed with Nicole Wallace to ensure that McCain-Palin would crash and burn.

“Mindless cult” or “Mindless deplorable cult”?

Steve Schmidt never graduated from college because he was too stupid to pass a math class. A career as a political loser whining on MSNBC is about the only way a dope like this can earn a living.

My niece plastered the entire thing on Facebook yesterday, billing him as a Republican, oh my!!! So many things I wanted to say about that jackass, but it was not worth getting involved. And she’s narcissistic — anyone who doesn’t care if they alienate half of their family and friends has to be.

It does seem like an organized, coordinated effort, doesn’t it?

When the Swamp complains like this it is a great sign.

Anyone ever find out what McCain was doing at that security conference in Halifax on 2016?

The same one that Christopher Steele attended.

Just curious.

Schmidt is a bitter, self-important dickhead who headed the failed campaign of a traitorous POS who’s hopefully burning in hell right now. Wow. What a resume.

A classic reference for a drooling idiot strutting!

I have some nieces and nephews who are lefties. I do not normally get in political discussions with them, but if they want to be insulting or threatening toward me I will make very clear that they have been canceled from my will. Perhaps these kids will learn to think twice about what they say when they realize the knife cuts both ways.
