How the Democrats and Media Finally Went Too Far
RealClearPolitics ^ | Frank Miele

Posted on 11/04/2024 10:27:26 AM PST by RoosterRedux

The reelection of Donald Trump would represent, if not the single greatest comeback in political history, certainly the largest middle finger ever shown to the smug, self-centered, superior-minded elitists who think the rest of us are garbage.

Of course, we didn’t need President Biden to call us “garbage” for everyday Americans to know that what we care about means nothing to the establishment. But Biden obliged anyway, and put an exclamation point to the final sorry week of Kamala Harris’ galling campaign.

You just can’t get any worse than “garbage” – or can you? Isn’t Nazi worse? After all, the Nazis killed 17 million people. If you include all the victims of fascism, you can get that number up to 20 million. But for some reason, the legacy media didn’t care when Harris and her surrogates repeatedly called Trump and his supporters Nazis or fascists.

You almost get the feeling that the left-leaning press despises Republicans as much as Biden, Harris, and the rest of the Democrats do. If you had any doubt, the totally bogus claim that Trump said he wanted to execute Liz Cheney was the last straw. He was making a perfectly valid argument that the former congresswoman would be less inclined to support wars if she had to fight in them. But apparently that was too sophisticated an attack for the news professionals who decided to lie about it. Instead, they maliciously claimed that Trump literally wanted to put Cheney in front of a firing squad.

...

It’s nothing new, but the latest iteration started on Oct. 13 when Kamala Harris began peddling the “enemy within” hoax, which would have voters believe that Trump had said he planned to use the military against his political opponents.

It’s tough.

I get up in the morning, and I don’t know if I’m a Nazi, if I’m garbage, if I’m a Fascist, or if I’m deplorable.

It’s SO HARD!!

The “firing squad” hoax alone deserves a multi-billion dollar lawsuit.

The Harvard Crimson endorsed harris:

https://www.thecrimson.com/article/2024/11/4/editorial-trump-harvard-disastrous/

But Harvard Republicans endorse Trump:

https://www.thecrimson.com/article/2024/7/2/harvard-republican-club-donald-trump-endorsement/

There’s at least some intelligence in the Harvard community! And if Trump indeed wins, the harris crowd can cuddle plush animals and seek mental health care!

Biden.. the guy with dementia.. finally blurted what ALL of DC thinks of us - average US citizens.

I just wish more people understood this.

Went too far???

Many voters believe that our country has been poorly governed during the Biden years. And Biden himself is losing his mental sharpness. And in the last months the deep state kicked out Biden and put in Kamala, who would never have been chosen from an open field.

I’d say the media and Democrats went in the wrong direction.

What happened at the WaPo tells me all I need to know about “too far” - a threat to resign on the part of the “journalists” if a specific candidate wasn’t endorsed and concern not by them, but only by management, that their credibility might be tanking. The journos don’t care.

If abortion becomes readily available, inexpensive or free, and socially acceptable, will teenagers become very sexually active and assume an abortion is not worst than having a cavity filled by a dentist. I guess this may be what women Harris voters want. I am sure the boy teenagers will readily accept this result.
