Trump’s ‘Bloodbath’ Is The Fake News Media’s Latest Hysterics Over ‘Guy’ And ‘Sir’
The Federalist ^ | MARCH 18, 2024 | EDDIE SCARRY

The media have been pseudo-analyzing Trump to impart dark meaning to his every word. Sometimes a metaphor is just that.

Sometimes, a cigar is just a cigar. But if it involves Donald Trump, the news media for various reasons insist it’s definitely a penis.

We’re in the middle of another round of gravely serious media analysis about what Trump meant when he said something in public, this time that there would be a “bloodbath” if he didn’t win the election. Anyone who saw the remarks at a campaign rally Saturday in Ohio knew Trump was talking about the economic fallout of a second Biden term. But Washington journalists and commentators, equal parts lazy and dishonest, have spent the days since attributing every other hysterical meaning they can dream up.

The unintentionally funniest was NBC News’s “presidential historian” Michael Beschloss, who with great originality drew a direct link between Trump and the Holocaust.

“When he uses the word ‘bloodbath,’ yes, it was in the context of an automobile industry speech,” he said Monday on MSNBC’s “Morning. Joe.” “But he knew exactly what he was saying.”

Beschloss went on to say that what Trump meant was the opposite of what he actually said: “A major-party candidate is saying, ‘You elect me, there’s going to be dictatorship, bloodbath, violence, retribution against my political enemies’ that equals what we saw in Germany and Italy and other places.”

So, by Trump saying, “Now, if I don’t get elected, it’s gonna be a bloodbath,” what he really meant was that if he does get elected, there will be violence. Fascinating. (By “fascinating,” I do mean Beschloss is a deceitful dope.)

It’s the same playbook the Brits used on Enoch Powell after his “Rivers of Blood” speech.

Those that knowingly violated the law, violated their oaths and used their offices and influence to destroy the American nation and the liberties of the American people rightly fear a Trump Administration. They fear accountability for their crimes and righteous retribution.

“Bloodbath” is an economic term for a financial catastrophe.

China is building massive electric vehicle (EV) plants in Mexico with plans to import them to the United States.

Trump was warning them that if he is elected President he will place a 100% tariff on those EVs and it will be a financial bloodbath for them.

Their opening gambit is always slander. Always. And not just where Trump is concerned.

“bloodbath”

Reminds me of the college woman who said when President Trump was considering aides’ suggestions to possibly use the Congressional cloture “nuclear option” on substituting a simple majority for a 2/3 vote, that “how can anyone vote for Trump when he’s willing to have us all die in a nuclear war just to get his way in Congress.”🤪

This reminds that Groucho Marx used to have a word of the day on his show. Donald Trump should have a word of the day in his speeches just to see what the lame stream media does with it.
