WaPo’s Milbank: Trump a ‘Rotten Pig,’ ‘Fraud,’ ‘Sarah Palin Phenomenon’
Breitbart ^ | July 12,2015 | PAM KEY

Posted on 07/12/2015 3:51:58 PM PDT by Hojczyk

On Fox News Channel’s “MediaBuzz,” Washington Post columnist Dana Milbank attacked Republican presidential candidate Donald Trump as a “rotten pig,” a “fraud,” and a “Sarah Palin phenomenon.”

“I love writing about him. Yeah, the man is a rotten pig but good for our business, and yes, it is a guilty pleasure,” Milbank said.

He added, “This is a perfectly legitimate story for media to be covering. It’s justified by the polls and what is this man doing but holding up a mirror to our political system? He knows how to work the media. He knows how to work the Republican primary electorate. I covered this guy 16 years ago and he was soft on immigration going after Pat Buchanan as a racist., completely flip. He’s a complete fraud but he’s smart.”

He added, “It’s a bit of a Sarah Palin phenomenon. We can’t stay away from it. You know deep in your heart that Republicans are not going to nominate this guy. Ultimately they’re not suicidal.”

No, but that particular writer is riding so high on the p.c. bandwagon that he thinks he is protected.

Ultimately they’re not suicidal.

Look at who they've nominated recently...

Romney
McCain
Bush II
Dole
Bush I

And they're fixing to nominate Bush III.

How is that not suicidal?

Why is it when I look at a journalist with a face like Milbank, the homo red flags go up?

And they all hate Sarah Palin, the type of woman they run from and become homo.

Trump has a big megaphone and a big lawyer staff. I can hardly wait for the court papers to be mailed out.

Spot on! The legions of money grubbers signed on the the illegal Mexican border crossers is an indication of the corruption in America. There are so many making high incomes involved in activities that are one step away from the prison. These are the Zer0 morality minions (like the Criminal in Chief) who believe the ends justifies the means. The Baby Boomer Generation certainly has taken this nation down the toilet bowl.

If Sarah Palin was in the Cabinet, she should be Secretary of Energy.

I think she was the head of the Oil and Gas Commission in Alaska before she was governor, so she experience in that field.
