I will probably steal part of it and send it as an LTTE —
with no attribution to you of course ;)

Point well taken, Larry. You’ve proven that leftard chumps never change, and neither does their boilerplate message.
No matter how many times they’re proven wrong, the left soldiers on toward the darkness.

Quite often, some in here post from the headline without reading...

Oh yeah, the way I recall it from the willing fakers with their ‘nattering nabobs of negativity’ of yesteryear.
To: LS
All you need to know about #FakeNews and the Washington press corps is that David Broder is considered "the Dean" of their pundit class.
This is the economic illiterate who once famously wrote in one of his increasingly deluded columns: "There is no such thing as 'the deficit.' Because assets must equal liabilities, the budget is always really balanced, whether Republicans trying to cut the safety net want to admit it or not."
In those days, George Will had not yet gone off his rocker, and when Broder brought his novel economic theory to a roundtable discussion, Will sarcastically noted in response, "Right. That's why no business has ever failed." To my knowledge Broder's bright idea died on the table before his eyes, and he never brought it up again.
#FakeNews, as your post affirms, is nothing new.

OH WAIT. FOOLED YA! None of these stories are about Trump. They are all about Ronald Reagan. I just substituted Trump's name. Story 1, the "Failing Presidency," is from January 9, 1983 New York Slimes. Broder is quoted in the January 12, 1983 WaCompost. The "Grim Economic Reality" is Lou Cannon in the WaCompost, January 9, 1983, and "Tax Increases" is David Hoffman in the WaCompost, Jan. 9, 1983. Excellent!
What a great dose of perspective, for those who think the Democrat Media was ever anything but a bunch of propaganda-spewing liars...

It’s funny that you wrote this. I have been telling my two older sons that this is nothing new. They all treated Reagan the same way.

I probably would have skipped reading any further than just looking at the headline being that the article looked like just another 5th column hatchet job on President Trump. When I saw it was written by LS I said “Waaat?”
I had to read further. Well played Sir !

David Broder himself...the "Dean of Washington Journalists."
I was wondering if he'd risen from the crypt for the occasion...whether "The power of Trump" compelled him!
