Wallace comes across as being a nervous wreck. Rush knew how to handle the situation today.
Rove is one of the old hands who handled Bush. He tries to be smart even though sometimes he isn’t.
That's because part of the media's template for taking down Republicans takes into account the fact that Republican politicians tend to fold like a cheap suit when they are confronted by a hostile press. The Repub. wants to be liked, so they will be intimidated into going along with what the media wants, rather than stand up for what their constituents want. This is one of the main reasons some Republicans lost seats a few years ago, and some more conservatives were sent to Congress and State Houses.
President Trump is not beholden to any of these politicians, nor is he intimidated by any of the news readers in the lapdog media. As a result, he is not taking their crap lying down, and they absolutely cannot STAND it, because all their old tricks are not working.
