Mamma Mia MAGA
American Thinker ^ | October 3, 2022 | Brian C. Joondeph

Italy has spoken. And the White House and the media don’t like it.

Politico White House bureau chief Jonathan Lemire claimed that the election of "far-right" Italian Prime Minister Giorgia Meloni was met with "deep, if private, worry within President Joe Biden’s administration."

Going further in Politico, Lemire wrote that despite the White House’s acceptance of Meloni’s win, they view her recent victory as part of a "concerning trend" of "right-wing wins" in Europe. Concern for the White House means jubilation for most of the rest of us.

It’s so bad that the media is invoking the F-word. Not the usual one but “fascism.”

For a couple of weeks, I thought her full name included “most
rightwing PM since Mussolini”.

Me too, the power of the corrupt media.

Apparently, the definition of “facist” is now a normal relatively liberal American from the 1980s. Meloni isn’t even an actual conservative. She’s an unwed mother who *gasp* understands the importance of God, family, heritage and patriotism. Her solutions to the problems, however, are big government solutions.

That is correct. My read on Meloni is that her platform is basically that of a blue-dog Democrat of the 1980s.

“White House acceptance of her win”????

Italy is their own country-—half way around the globe.

White House has nothing to say either way.
What is Italy’s ‘level of acceptance” of BIDEN???

"White House has nothing to say either way."

"'I looked at the Italian President and I said, ‘I’m leaving in six hours. Leave the gun and take the cannoli. Or you’re not getting the money.’ Well, son of a bitch.... 'He left the gun and took the cannoli.'"

What are they so worried about? It’s not like Italy is the most important country in the world for us interest.

I think the use of the F-word is a ‘tell’. There was one political movement that always used it to label their enemies—the communists.

Now we have a press and even a president using the word to describe their enemies. I think that tells us a lot about them.
