The theory goes that if you put a frog in a pot of water and slowly turn up the flame, the frog will not notice it is being boiled to death. This is exactly what is happening to free speech in our country, and President Trump’s greatest service to America might be the example of his belligerent refusal to stay in the pot. While appearing at a campaign rally in Pennsylvania Saturday night, Trump called Meet the Press moderator Chuck Todd a “sleepy-eyed son of a bitch.”
Like most of what Trump does, there was a method to the madness.
The president, who has already announced his intent to run for a second term in 2020, knows that he must again pull off the hat trick of winning the rust belt states of Pennsylvania, Michigan, and Wisconsin.
On Thursday, Todd had Leo Gerard, president of the United Steelworkers, on his MSNBC show to discuss Trump’s new steel tariffs — an interview that apparently did not sit well with steelworkers in Pennsylvania.
And so, with six simple words (“sleepy-eyed son of a bitch”) Trump told this important constituency that he is on their side, that it is them against the condescending elitists, that it is Delta House against the Omega snobs.

Here again, you need to weigh the economic benefits of subsidizing an industry that has doggedly either refused or vveerryy slowly implemented new technology because the USW has fought it all along. Should US policy favor several thousand union workers, resulting in higher prices for millions of Americans who buy products that use steel? Tariffs will protect that industry so it is amazing to me that the union would be against the tariffs. To me, this is the unions bitching against tariffs while shooting themselves in the foot at the same time. Idiots.
It also tells the democrat propagandists running the MSM that we'll fight back.
