"The Impeachment Post"



“THE IMPEACHMENT POST”



a.k.a. “THE WASHINGTON POST”

 
Donald Trump rubbing the “Impeachment Post’s” cover on their faces.

Over the past few months, “The Washington Post” morphed into an “Impeachment Post”, a real one-topic newspaper.

Virtually every single day, the headlines were about the impeachment process. And the tone was always the same: the Democrats are clinching their goal, Trump is increasingly vulnerable and weak, Trump is doomed, etc.

Every day there was a new witness thrashing the President, every single week there popped up a new report allegedly revealing endless new evidence against Donald Trump.

And all of this was not done with as much as a thin veneer of impartiality, since the “Impeachment Post”, its editors (???), its journalists (???) and its columnists did not even bother to disguise their glee, their euphoria, for the imminent destitution of Donald Trump.

Initially, I felt outraged with the blatant one-sided reporting, but then I felt that it was almost funny. These people were enjoying Trump’s premature doom, when it was obvious to me that the impeachment sham was going nowhere but the dust bin. The Democrats and the so-called liberals never swallowed Trump’s victory, going as far as trying to distort the function of the Electoral College, thus subverting the democratic process. And their hatred never ceased.

The political motivation of the impeachment and the Republican majority in the Senate convinced me that this would end up being a wild goose chase. And so it was. Donald Trump was fully acquitted. It is time to leave the presidential decisions for the ballot box.

Never Trump, Always Us



NEVER TRUMP, ALWAYS US


The huge sense of self-entitlement displayed by some people still manages to occasionally surprise me. Last month, “The Washington Post” published a piece about a cohort of Republican experts on defence, national security and foreign policy.

EXPERTS

in “Fabius Maximus Website” at https://fabiusmaximus.com/2013/06/21/theory-51618/

What was the news? These people felt disgruntled, frustrated and revolted, all because they felt rejected.

What was the cause of the poor things’ disgrace? They were NOT invited for ANY post in the new administration.

And it gets worse. They actually tried. They have made themselves available, they reached out, to no avail. No call, no letter, no e-mail. Niente!

WHY? WHY? Well, they suspect and fear it could be, because they have one thing in common, besides being experts: they all signed one or both of two open letters during the primaries and the election campaigns titled “NEVER TRUMP”.

Thus they fear to have been blacklisted.

Really? No way. They just declared “Never Trump” plus some derogatory comments on Trump, why on earth would that exclude them from the sweet positions and perks they coveted and regard as being their natural right?

Seriously, why on earth would they want to serve under a president, they clearly loath?

And why on earth would President Trump hire Trump-haters?

This ridiculous, hilarious and depressing episode, displays the utter arrogance of some of the elites who see themselves as being beyond reproach. The fact that they had the nerve to go public with their preposterous complaints, plus the fact that “The Washington Post” aired them, gives us a clear view of the comfy promiscuity of the so-called establishment, or the swamp, if you prefer.

If they were really blacklisted, serves them right.
