Why Trump’s con can’t last forever
The Washington Post ^ | January 24, 2017 | Katrina vanden Heuvel

Posted on 01/24/2017 10:43:34 AM PST by detective

From the start of his short, truculent and unabashedly populist inaugural address, President Trump called out the Washington establishment: “For too long, a small group in our nation’s capital has reaped the rewards of government while the people have borne the cost. Washington flourished, but the people did not share in its wealth. Politicians prospered, but the jobs left, and the factories closed. The establishment protected itself, but not the citizens of our country.”

He painted a dystopian picture of the United States and promised: “This American carnage stops right here and stops right now.”

This is a good example of the continual lies that the media will tell about Trump.

Trump needs to develop a strategy to get the truth to the American people.

Katrina is a well known liberal loon.

Nobody with an ounce of sense listens to anything she says.

Admittedly that leaves out almost half the population.

"Trump needs to develop a strategy to get the truth to the American people."

The ingeniousness of twitter! One of his tweets gets read far more than anything that fossilized old hag Katrina Vanden Huevel could ever write.

Liberals will never get over Crooked Hillary losing. Or at least some significant percentage.

There is no bigger con than what Congress morphed into, the DNC, the Obama’s and The Clinton Foundation. Obama being the largest con of all and supported, daily, by the others.

Rush Limbaugh maintains that Hurricane Katrina was named after her. ;-)

Thus his prolific use of twitter. But when he wants to send a message requiring more than 140 characters, he should use FR.

Can someone please explain to me, why he needs these people?

Washington Post with an article that is pure unadulterated fabrication and embellishment.

This gives me stress.

Basically their argument, or put-down, against deplorables is:

“You populist MF!”

I would say this omits WAPO from any pressers for the next few weeks. Questions they can forget about for a long time.

She calls it “truculent”

I found it inspiring.
