Predictable Political Maneuverings: Two Weeks Ago We Dispatched A Warning About Hugh Hewitt
The Last Refuge - Conservative Treehouse ^ | September 3, 2015 | Sundance

Posted on 09/04/2015 12:53:55 PM PDT by Sontagged

...Thus two weeks ago we dispatched a warning about Hugh Hewitt specifically:

Politics as an industry – Salem Communications [radio talk show (Hewitt), Red State (Erickson), now also Twitchy (Malkin), Hot Air (McCain), NRO, Townhall, Human Events, Bearing Arms etc.] has the same general ideological world view as Jeb Bush, George Will, Rupert Murdoch, Wall Street Journal, etc.

UPDATE: As if on cue – Salem Communications, Via Hot Air, publishes a “compare and contrast” article pushing the GOPe Carly Fiorina – as savior angle. LINK HERE

Salem Communications owns both Hot Air and Hugh Hewitt. See how they roll?

Shorter: “the betters”, the “elites”. Or those who feel superior enough to tell others what they should or must think. You’ll note these Salem groups rarely research, present raw data, or offer unfiltered information; it’s almost always Op-Ed.

We, the proud vulgarian team, without financial considerations to skew our perspectives and viewpoints, do not like the “financial media class” and the skewered perspectives that come with financial dependency. We are able to research, watch, describe and discuss through clear-eyed glasses. Hence, we can transmit the warning above.

The gathering of the opposition research includes trying to record Donald Trump for use in later campaigns, ie. the lead to the debate. Hence again, the warning above.

They, all of them, want Trump stumbling and stammering. Desperately seeking to create the “Park Row Narrative” – inept, inexperienced, incompetent, et al.

Just like Bloomberg’s John Heilemann and Mark Halperin with the “what’s your favorite bible passage” question (ie. prove you’re a christian); or Bloomberg’s Mark Halperin asking Ted Cruz his favorite “Hispanic food or Hispanic singer” in essence prove you’re Hispanic bona fides questions:

Today’s questions from Hugh Hewitt are no less strategic or strategically motivated. Hugh Hewitt has a plan. Hewitt is also part of the Salem Op-Ed machine who are trying to provide the soundbites for the upcoming assault.

Within seconds of Hewitt providing the fuel, the RNC industrial machine jumped to action. This is only going to get worse by infinite magnitudes. Prepare for it.

(New York Times) […] Mr. Trump, a real estate developer and brand manager who has never worked in government, has relatively little experience dealing with foreign governments. But he has boasted of his global reach and international experience as a businessman. Mr. Hewitt said he was not interested in “gotcha” questions but wanted to be sure Mr. Trump had a baseline of knowledge about foreign leaders. “On the front of Islamist terrorism, I’m looking for the next commander in chief to know who Hassan Nasrallah is, and Zawahiri, and al-Julani, and al-Baghdadi. Do you know the players without a scorecard, yet, Donald Trump?” Mr. Hewitt asked. There is one goal in all of this – DESTROY DONALD TRUMP ! It’s simply what they do, every election, every time, when the industrial political machine doesn’t like the candidate.

And the intel/optics will be used as fuel injected into the debate while GOPe co-horts (Carly Fiorina) will continue the Megyn Kelly approach.

The RNC/GOPe machine, through the various Wall Street funded Super-PACs will also fund liberal groups (Hispanics, La Raza, and Black Lives Matter as examples) and labor organizations (remember the SEIU orcs?) to campaign against Trump visibly based on “racist” and divisive accusations.

Yes, that is correct. The same party who just presented a loyalty pledge is now empowered, with full plausible deniability of course, to fund Trump’s removal at all costs.

This is going to get even more UGLY as the political power brokers grow increasingly more anxious.

GOPe Republicans are just as vicious as Democrats when it comes to attacking their adversaries. Unfortunately, GOPe Republicans don’t view Democrats as their opposition (see Mitt Romney ’12), they only view conservatives as their adversaries.

You think this is bad? Wait until the GOP/DNC/MSM machine sink their hooks into Cruz. You haven't seen anything yet.

The goal of the GOP/DNC/MSM machine is to set up a JEB! vs. HILLARY! race, which JEB! must lose, in order to maintain the status quo in DC.

Trump is a wildcard at this point, and ALL of the long knives are being pulled out to take him down. With that done, it will be much easier to clear out the rest of the GOP field.

All of this is going according to plan. The GOPe will back the dem candidate incognito, while letting the conservatives take themselves out with a circular firing squad.

Happened in every election in the 21st century. Trump will probably be forgotten by next November, along with all of the others, except JEB!, and whatever GOPe tool VP they pair him up with.

Trump is a blind and imperfect man, who remains a Samson-like threat to the Establishment Temple...

And we all want him to pull down the walls.

You need to read more on the author, Sundance, who wrote this article.

Read his GOPe roadmap to victory, I think it might blow you away:

America DESPERATELY needs a president with BALLS. Trump is that man, although I agree there are suspicions regarding his motivation. But he is a fighter, unlike femmy Bama. Cruz has fought but WHEN has he won in Congress?

That’s it exactly. When trump is sworn in all of 0s rrecords will be opened. That’s why I keep pushing Cruz for SCOTUS. doesn’t make a difference then. Just don’t want to get into or draw attention to the issue on here. Too many uneducated regarding the matter. They read a liberal.analysis and argue from the heart instead of following the conservative interpretations

Signing that “loyalty” shtick thingy put him in the barber’s chair.

He can ask whatever he wants. Doesn’t mean people have to like it, including Donald Trump.

I remember sundance’s warning. He’s also been tweeting about the Salem group’s (Hot Air, Townhall, etc) hit pieces on Trump. Glad he’s written a detailed article on it.

I noticed when Salem bought out Hot Air it became an entirely different site, compared to when MM owned it. Moved to the center, even though they said things wouldn’t change.

Black Agnes pointed out Cruz’s huge vulnerability out to me a few weeks ago.

Cruz has to know what a liability he is.

Hmmm, did Trump vote to cut in half the number of senators that would have to approve of the Obama / Iran deal, for it to be approved?

I mean nukes for Iran... $150 billion to fund terrorism against the West, that’s okay right?

Death to the great Satan, Iran...

There’s no problem with Iran getting nukes is there?

There’s no problem funding terrorism is there?

Cruz is running to be president, and he can’t see any reason to avoid Iran getting nukes or terrorist funding at all.

This is a guy whose judgment I’m supposed to trust now?

You guys love splashing Trump things on the forum all day, but I don’t know of one thing Trump did that would measure up to 5% as bad as this vote by Cruz.

Well if you were a dick we know what kind of dick you would be.

Is this really the road you want to go down?

You might have a point if Trump actually opposed the Iran deal instead of saying he’d police it better. lol

Honestly, I wouldn’t call him that.

I’m simply pointing out, that none of these guys are perfect.

This anti Trump carp is getting old.

If we all want to play that game, we can.
