Sessions Hearing and Racist Democrat Tweets
Jeff Sessions is a Southern White Republican, so OF COURSE he must be a Raaaaaacist! NEVER MIND THE EVIDENCE!
But, you know what? It wasn’t Republicans tweeting RACIST crap today!
When Ira Madison saw Sessions sitting with his darling granddaughter on his lap, the MTV culture writer tweeted for Sessions to “kindly return this Asian baby to the Toys ‘R’ Us you stole her from.”
And when Sen. Tim Scott announced his support for Sessions as AG, racist Democrats crawled out from under their rocks to scream Uncle Tom, house boy, housenigger, and porch boy at him.
Scott proved himself to be a gracious gentleman, responding to tweets like “You’ve sold your soul voting for Jeff Sessions” with “Sorry ma’am, but my #SoulIsPurchasedByJesus.”
He also showed he has the better sense of humor. When one tweeter called him “A white man in a black body”, he asked “Is that like a Liger?”
Thank you for your grace, Senator Scott. You make me proud to share your party, your nation, and most importantly your faith in Jesus Christ.

Send In the Clowns
It begins. The inquisition against Jeff Sessions, a moral and Godly man strictly for the purposes of political posturing will be forced to defend himself against phony racism charges from people who have worked beside him for 20 years. The hearing is in progress as I bang on this keyboard, so this is an ongoing process. I have it on in the background and it is difficult to listen to the likes of Leahy, Durbin and Feinstein pontificate when they’re all as crooked as a dog’s hind leg.
Sessions’ Granddaughter Stole The Show At His Confirmation Hearing
Sen. Jeff Sessions’ granddaughter captured hearts at his Tuesday attorney general confirmation hearing. While opening statements were read, Sessions played with his granddaughter, who occasionally interrupted proceedings with adorable toddler babbling.
THE HATE NEVER STOPS
MTV Host Attacks Jeff Sessions For Having An Asian Granddaughter
WHERE ARE THE CLOWNS? DON’T BOTHER, THEY’RE HERE:
Code Pink Protesters Dressed as KKK Greet AG Nominee Jeff Sessions at Hearing
Senator Jeff Sessions desegregated schools in Alabama and took on the KKK in the state. Democrats are desperate to stop the Alabama Senator’s confirmation. This morning Code Pink activists greeted Senator Sessions dressed as KKK members.
Cory Booker to Testify Against Sessions in Unprecedented Move
So much for the ‘peaceful transition’ that the Democrats said they would facilitate. Democrat Senator Cory Booker is set to testify against Republican Senator Jeff Sessions in an unprecedented move during his attorney general confirmation.
This is going to be the first time in history that a sitting senator will testify against another sitting senator for a Cabinet post during a confirmation.
Democratic Sen. Cory Booker (N.J.) thanked his colleague Sen. Jeff Sessions (R., Ala.) last year at the Capitol for his help celebrating the 1965 “Foot Soldiers,” those who marched from Selma to Montgomery, Alabama to promote civil rights for African Americans.
THAT WAS THEN. THIS IS NOW. GOT TO MAKE POLITICAL HAY.
Sessions Faces a Political Lynch Mob
The incident set the stage for what will no doubt be an ugly attempt by Democrats to assassinate the character of the gentleman from Alabama.
Some Democrats are calling him by his given name, Jefferson Beauregard Sessions – a wink-wink, nod-nod to the Civil War – as if he’s a slave-holding plantation owner.
[CtH: Remember when they were offended by people calling Candidate Obama “Barack Hussein Obama”?]
Hans Von Spakovsky: Democrats Oppose Jeff Sessions Because He’ll Enforce Our Immigration Laws
“But Democrats really don’t like him because of his views on issues,” he continued. “For example, they really don’t want someone who’s actually going to enforce our immigration laws. They’ve been giving him a hard time in the civil rights area too, even though many of their criticisms really have been false.
SiriusXM host Raheem Kassam suggested that Democrats would be “uncouth” to Sessions to gin up donations and political support from their base.
Sessions Tells Senators: ‘You Know I Believe in Fairness, Impartiality and Equal Justice’
“You know who I am,” he said. “You know what I believe in. You know that I am a man of my word and can be trusted to do what I say I will do. You know that I revere our Constitution and that I am committed to the rule of law. And you know that I believe in fairness, impartiality, and equal justice under the law.”
Feinstein Tells Sessions It ‘Not His Job’ to Prosecute Hillary Because Trump Wants Him To
HE ASSURED HER HE WOULD RECUSE HIMSELF SHOULD CACKLEPANTS BE PROSECUTED
In particular, Feinstein insisted that Sessions’ job does not include the prosecution of former secretary of state Hillary Clinton, who we all know abused her email use and put national security at risk. During the 2016 presidential campaign, Trump suggested that he was going to hire a special prosecutor to “look into her situation.”
“The attorney general must put aside loyalty to the president,” she said. The law and Constitution, she emphasized, must come first and foremost.
UNLESS YOU’RE A RACIST PIG (ERIC HOLDER) WHO IGNORED THE LAW WHENEVER HE SAW FIT
Let the Games Begin
The Senate confirmation hearings start this week. Six are scheduled for today. The Senate democrats will act like ravening hyenas tearing at the flesh of a dead wildebeest. The most notable will be that of Sen. Jeff Sessions, a good and moral man that these wolves have known and worked with for 20 years. That matters little. They have to put on a show for the still-angry and fuming mobs. After the name-calling, baseless allegations, and sideshow theatrics, he’ll be confirmed as Attorney General, thanks to the ham-handed bullying of the almost-departed Harry ‘the slimy toad’ Reid. When he arbitrarily changed the rules from a 60-vote threshold for judges to a simple majority he must have thought the dems would maintain a majority in perpetuity. His short-sighted gamble will cost them dearly.
Jeff Sessions shunned, slandered by longtime Senate Democrat collaborators
Senate Democrats are poised to throw away 20 years of friendship and a bipartisan working relationship with Sen. Jeff Sessions to wreak political vengeance on him this week as they consider his nomination for attorney general.
Highlighting the deep partisan divide and the bad blood between Democratic lawmakers and President-elect Donald Trump, the same senators who have socialized and co-authored reams of legislation with Mr. Sessions are under pressure from liberal interest groups to air accusations that he is a racist, a sexist and a homophobe.
Senate readies for blizzard of confirmation battles
Democrats are focusing their attacks on eight nominees, three of whom come to Capitol Hill this week: Betsy DeVos, Trump’s nominee for Education Secretary; Sen. Jeff Sessions (R-Ala.), who has been nominated to be Attorney General; and Rex Tillerson, Trump’s choice to be Secretary of State.
Grassley to allow special panel for Sessions witch-hunt

What this panel will effectively do is give a congressional soapbox, sanctioned by the GOP Judiciary chairman, to conduct a prolonged smear campaign with the intent to paint Sessions as some sort of unrepentant neo-Confederate racist.
McConnell to Dems: ‘Grow Up’ and ‘Get Past’ the Confirmation Stonewalling
What did we do? We confirmed seven Cabinet appointments the day President Obama was sworn in. We didn’t like most of them, either. But he won the election. So all of these little procedural complaints are related to their frustration in having not only lost the White House, but having lost the Senate.

Without evidence?
Phelim McAleer notes:
The committee makes it very clear that although they were prompted to act by the CMP’s famous undercover Planned Parenthood videos, their investigation was completely separate. They relied almost exclusively on documents acquired under subpoena from Planned Parenthood and the businesses doing the actual buying and selling.
And they were doing a lot of buying and selling. …
The Senate report is an astonishing document. … hundreds, perhaps thousands, of professionals were part of the business transactions. These companies had contracts with Planned Parenthood and other abortion clinics. These contracts were revised and altered by lawyers and accountants – all of whom presumably knew that the law explicitly forbids any profiteering from the sales of any body parts of anyone.

A Change of Heart
By now you’re all aware of the heinous act of savagery committed against a mentally handicapped white man by four mindless animals that are so common among the urban parasites. Four thugs have been arrested and the excuses have begun about how it isn’t a hate crime, blah, blah, blah. Turns out it wasn’t the first act of unspeakable cruelty by these subhumans. I had a number of links to post but I decided to forego posting anything about them since there’s really nothing new about it. Black on white crime has skyrocketed since Obama gave it his tacit approval. Hopefully it may ebb just a bit when Trump takes office, but, as they say, a leopard doesn’t change it’s spots and violence bred of ignorance and hate feeds upon itself and reproduces more grist for the racial hatred mill at a disturbing rate. Therefore I’m just going to let things be for now. There’s plenty of other news going on.
Obamacare Repeal Budget Resolution Passes Senate With 51 Votes
THANK YOU, HARRY REID
The resolution, which used the reconciliation process to repeal elements of Obamacare with only 51 votes, was introduced Tuesday by Sen. Mike Enzi (R., Wyo.), the chairman of the Senate Budget Committee.
Democrats: GOP Wants To ‘Make America Sick Again’
This is similar to Alan Grayson’s — Republicans want you to ‘die quickly.’
It back to the old scare tactic of throwing granny off a cliff. This is why Dems lost 1000 seats in the last few elections.
[CtH: By Schumer’s reasoning, my kidneys failed because of Obamacare. So if the Republicans repeal it, I should start to get better!]
Obama to transfer more Gitmo detainees despite Trump’s objection
“There should be no further releases from Gitmo. These are extremely dangerous people and should not be allowed back onto the battlefield,” Trump tweeted Tuesday.
Earnest said Obama would not factor Trump’s tweet into his decision-making on the prison. Trump, he said, would have “an opportunity to implement the policy that he believes will be more effective when he takes office on January 20.”
NYAH, NYAH, NYAH… YOU CAN’T STOP US.
[CtH: It’s so obvious what a Big Fat Lie their “let’s have a smooth transition” is. It feels to me like every time Obama says this, he’s really saying, “Don’t demolish my legacy all at once!” Loser.]
Obama is going out in a blaze of self-interest
Of all Barack Obama’s costumes, the most ill-fitting is that of the hawk. The guise doesn’t work for all sorts of ideological and historical reasons. Plus there’s the fact that he’s rushing to put on the outfit as he’s heading out the door.
Trump Slams Obamacare, Says Dems Led By ‘Head Clown Chuck Schumer’
IT IS REFRESHING TO HAVE A LEADER WHO KNOWS THAT WHEN DEMOCRATS TALK ABOUT “BIPARTISANSHIP” IT MEANS “ABANDON YOUR PRINCIPLES AND GIVE US EVERYTHING WE WANT”
Trump said Democrats, led by “head clown Chuck Schumer,” understand how bad the law is, but they’re not trying to work and fix it. Instead, all they’re doing is blaming, he added.
[CtH: As an unwilling constituent of Schumer’s, I second Trump’s remark. That inane comment about repealing Obamacare making America sick again was almost as bad as Pelosi’s “we have to pass it to find out what’s in it” statement.]
Maddow: First Question I’d Ask Trump On My Show Is Would He Send Me Or Anyone Else ‘To A Camp’
MSNBC host Rachel Maddow said Wednesday night that if Donald Trump ever appeared on her nighttime show, she would ask the president-elect if he intends on sending her or anyone else she knows “to a camp.”

[CtH: I would really like to know what standard they use for saying he “saved America.” We were never in any danger of being invaded and conquered; he’s overseen the worst recession recovery in history; and he’s gotten us into more wars than any previous president. Did I miss anything?]
Trump hires Omarosa for his White House team
TRUMP IS ASSEMBLING AN ALL-STAR TEAM
President-elect Donald Trump has picked Katie Walsh as deputy to chief of staff Reince Priebus (ryns PREE’-bus). Walsh worked for Priebus at the Republican National Committee and helped with party fundraising.
Rick Dearborn, who used to work on Capitol Hill, is taking over a top job dealing with Congress.
Joe Hagin – who’s worked in three GOP White Houses – is coming on board as deputy chief of staff for operations.
Sanders uses oversized Trump tweet as floor prop
“Let me quote somebody who I suspect I will not often be quoting,” Sanders said while speaking about planned GOP changes to ObamaCare.
“On May 7, 2015, Donald Trump tweeted, ‘I was the first & only potential GOP candidate to state there will be no cuts to Social Security, Medicare & Medicaid.'”
[CtH: Earth to Bernie … the changes to Obamacare will not affect Medicare or Medicaid. Duh. The changes are about making free market health insurance more affordable by allowing health savings accounts, by removing state line bans (like we have in NY where Blue Cross/Blue Shield has a monopoly and our rates have been sky high for decades), and by allowing people to deduct health insurance premiums from their income tax. Employers have been allowed to deduct the premiums they pay on employees, but employees could not opt out of their employers’ plans and then deduct premiums. Nor could the self-employed deduct their premiums! It’s totally unfair AND it keeps health insurance tied to employment, which was a BIG factor in problems Dems cried about needing O’care for — i.e., insurance gaposis between jobs, with attendant waiting during new job start up periods and pre-existing condition exclusions. Health insurance should be totally private market, not tied to employment, where employees are forced into a plan that may not suit their needs and where they lose coverage if they get laid off or decide to change jobs, go back to school, move with a spouse to a new area, etc.]
ANOTHER WINNER OF THE GHETTO LOTTERY
Teen Pinned Down At McKinney Pool Party In 2015 Sues Former Officer, City For $5 Million
FIRST, ACT AS CRIMINALLY AS POSSIBLE UNTIL THE POLICE GET INVOLVED. THEN PUSH TO PROVOKE A REACTION. WHEN YOU SUCCEED, MAKE SURE THERE ARE PLENTY OF OBAMAPHONES HUMMING. SUE THE POLICE DEPARTMENT AND THE CITY, MAKE MILLIONS. CHA-CHING!
Video of the infamous encounter between Casebolt, who is white, and the then 15-year-old Becton, who is black, brought national attention to McKinney and Craig Ranch, the neighborhood where it happened. In June 2016, Becton’s attorney asked the City of McKinney for $2.5 million to avoid a lawsuit, but the city didn’t take the deal, according to The Dallas Morning News. Later that month, a Collin County grand jury declined to indict Casebolt, who resigned four days after the party.
Clinton Mulling NYC Mayoral Run
Former Democratic presidential nominee Hillary Clinton is “talking about” running for New York City mayor, Newsmax reports.
(SORRY… ONLY IMAGE WITH HILLARY’S NAME IN IT I HAVE RIGHT NOW)
It has only been 57 days since President-elect Donald Trump defeated Clinton. During the election slog, Clinton, 69, collapsed getting into a Secret Service van, had multiple coughing fits during speeches and seemed to have trouble walking up steps at a rally in Lake Worth, Fla.
“If she ran, she’d win,” a Newsmax source said.
SHE SHOULD… DEMOCRATS OUTNUMBER REPUBLICANS 3-1 IN NEW YORK. THAT’S WHY SHE DECIDED TO RUN OR THE SENATE THERE. IT’S A STACKED DECK.

Obama could use 5 minute window to FORCE SCOTUS PICK Garland
Obama has one last chance to force his pick for the Supreme Court, Merrick Garland, on to the highest court in the land. Obama will have a 5 minute window known as “intersession recess” when he can force the move.
The liberal New Republic believes that Obama should put Merrick Garland on the Supreme Court during this intersession recess although they state: “Based on everything we know about Obama’s temperament and politics, he won’t resort to this.”
Most conservatives would say that based on everything we know about Obama’s temperament and politics he is highly likely to resort to this.
IT IS ALMOST CERTAIN HE’LL TRY THIS. HE ACTS LIKE THE SPOILED BRAT WHO DIDN’T GET EVERYTHING HE WANTED FOR CHRISTMAS SO HE’S SETTING ABOUT BREAKING EVERYBODY ELSE’S STUFF SO THEY CAN’T ENJOY IT.

Sean Spicer: Trump to ‘Repeal a Lot’ of Obama’s Actions on Day One
In an interview with ABC’s “This Week”, Trump’s incoming White House press secretary Sean Spicer said that President-elect Donald Trump plans to repeal a lot of President Barack Obama’s executive actions in his first day in office.
Spicer said that the Trump administration will immediately “repeal a lot of the regulations and actions that have been taken by this administration over the last eight years that have hampered both economic growth and job creation.”
Obama will travel to the Capitol on Wednesday morning for the meeting with House and Senate Democrats, according to an invitation sent to lawmakers. The White House is casting it as an effort to unite Democrats behind a plan to protect the law, known as the Affordable Care Act. Obama also plans a major valedictory speech in Chicago, his hometown, shortly before his presidency ends.
[CtH: I had lab work today at the hospital, where CNN was blatting in the waiting room. The talking heads were hyperventilating about Trump’s eeeeeeeeevil plan to sabotage Obamacare. I sat there wondering if they’d had even the slightest concern back in 2009 about what negative effects it might have or about the totally bogus way the Democrats passed it … in the middle of the night on Christmas Eve and without a single Republican vote? I can’t say for sure, but my guess is they did not.]
Schumer: “Democrats Will Resist Trump’s Picks Vehemently!”
TRANSLATION: WE’RE GOING TO BE THE SAME HATEFUL, DESTRUCTIVE PRICKS WE’VE ALWAYS BEEN
According to the report, Schumer told Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell that he will target Trump’s pick for the head of State, Sen. Jeff Sessions for head of the Justice Department, and two other notable appointees.
Democrats will also target picks for the Department of Health and Human Services, the Department of Labor, Treasury and the Environmental Protection Agency.
[CtH: And the MSM will self-righteously depict every accusation as totally legit, just like they did back when Anita Hill was the Democrat Lying Shill trying to sabotage Clarence Thomas.]
Kucinich: Obama Hung Democrats Out to Dry for Past Eight Years
The Daily Beast‘s Jackie Kucinich said to CNN’s Nia-Malika Henderson on Sunday that it would be interesting to see what kind of reception President Obama will receive when he meets congressional Democrats next week, adding that the president has hung his party “out to dry” during his time in the White House.
[CtH: I remember hearing a story some years ago about a meeting of top Democrat leaders in Congress. Obama was “there” via conference call, but reportedly, as he yammered on and on the way he does, someone (I think it was Pelosi) hit MUTE! Then the continued their meeting.]
Democrats prepare for early ‘act of cowardice’ with GOP attempt to repeal Obamacare

House Minority Leader Nancy Pelosi, preparing for her fourth straight Congress in the minority — she lost her speakership in 2010, in an anti-Obamacare backlash — now says it’s the GOP that will pay a political price if it moves to dismantle the Affordable Care Act. “You break it, you own it,” the California Democrat said.
Alabama band to march at inauguration, igniting controversy
GOOD ON THEM
The marching band of Alabama’s oldest private, historically black liberal arts college has accepted an invitation to perform at President-elect Donald Trump’s inaugural parade, organizers said.
“After how black people were treated at Trump’s rallies, you’re going to go and shuck and jive down Pennsylvania Avenue? For what?” Seinya SamForay said in an interview. “What they did is a slap in the face to other black universities.”

What should be noted is that there were 2,000 verified hate crimes against Trump supporters since the election.

TRUMP PAID FOR IT WITH HIS OWN MONEY … BIG DIFFERENCE.
[CtH: Actually, the real difference is that Trump made his dough creating jobs, while Obama became a multi-millionaire largely due to sale of his autobiography that he probably didn’t write. I’m fairly certain the taxpayers never had to pay for Michelle’s wardrobe. That’s probably not true of her staff’s salaries and benefits, which include a hairdresser and makeup artist. But the clothes themselves, no.]
[CtH: Wow … Michelle’s dress is truly heinous. Hillary had a couple of expensive designer outfits during the campaign that were butt ugly too. What’s with their lack of taste? Both of them can afford to buy beautiful clothes by designers who know how to make a woman look her best. So why do they shop with designers whose outfits are ugly and unflattering to their figures?]

I’m glad I got there before they came down. Tomorrow would’ve been too late.]
Tuesday Edition
Oldest daughter and her family came over to celebrate Christmas with us. My dear grandson and fishing buddy RJ walked through the door and I said: ‘Oh,hell,no!’ I hadn’t seen him since we went fishing back in September. He’s grown about 2″ and is now almost 5’11” and wears a size 12 shoe. He’s 13, and won’t be 14 until August. His dad’s whole family, including the women, are all very tall. I plan to hire a fishing guide in the spring to take us out on a lake in Southeast Wisconsin (there are a number of good ones) and I showed him some of their websites. We plan to fish for panfish like crappies and bluegills, since they are school fish and you can catch a lot of them if they’re biting. He doesn’t care as long as he’s with his grandpa. His stepdad hasn’t fished since he was a kid and one guide has a 21ft bass boat that can seat 4. The guide supplies all the tackle and the bait and will clean and fillet your catch. It might be fun to take my son-in-law along, just for fun.
Now for the serious stuff:
Obama insists Trump win no indicator Democrats’ vision for U.S. is ‘a fantasy’
‘It feels like the band is breaking up a little bit’
President Obama is “confident” that he would have defeated Republican Donald Trump in a head-to-head match-up in the 2016 U.S. presidential election.
“I am confident in this vision because I’m confident that if I had run again and articulated it, I think I could’ve mobilized a majority of the American people to rally behind it,” Mr. Obama said, CNN reported Monday. “I know that in conversations that I’ve had with people around the country, even some people who disagreed with me, they would say the vision, the direction that you point towards is the right one.”
[CtH: Since when has this self-absorbed narcissist EVER talked to anyone who disagreed with him?]

REMEMBER ME? I GOT 2 MILLION MORE VOTES BUT LOST ANYWAY. I SHOULD BE THE PRESIDENT!
Hillary Clinton hinted in a thank-you message to supporters on Monday that she will stay politically active next year.
“I believe it is our responsibility to keep doing our part to build a better, stronger, fairer future for our country and the world,” Clinton wrote.
“I look forward to staying in touch in 2017. Onward!” she added, according to The Hill.

HOPE YOU DIDN’T HAVE FRUIT LOOPS FOR BREAKFAST
[CtH: This really reminds of the McCain-Obama debate where McCain talked about the Soldier whose bracelet he wore and Obama goes, “I have a bracelet too!” Except Obama couldn’t remember the name of the Soldier. And it came out later that the Soldier’s parents had told him not to wear it. So Trump makes innovative use of the internet, so Obama has to claim, “I did it too!” I knew kids like this in school. They were pathetic.]
Supreme Court Freakout at the New York Times
The New York Times was once known as The Grey Lady. Today, a more apt moniker would be The Hysterical Bag Lady. The Times editorial board is home to the most immoderate, shrieking Leftism you will find this side of the Nation.
On Christmas Eve, the Times editorialized on The Stolen Supreme Court Seat. It is a classic of the post-Trump-election freakout genre:
Soon after his inauguration next month, President-elect Donald Trump will nominate someone to the Supreme Court, which has been hamstrung by a vacancy since the death of Justice Antonin Scalia in February.
Republican attorneys general eager to dismantle Obama climate agenda under Donald Trump

Democratic states now vow to challenge a GOP-ruled Washington on environmental issuesBy contrast, states with Democratic leadership — such as California, where Gov. Jerry Brown has promised all-out war against Mr. Trump on global warming — will go from being environmental partners with the federal government to legal aggressors on their own.
Republicans have begun exercising their influence over the incoming president and his pick to lead the Environmental Protection Agency, Oklahoma Attorney General Scott Pruitt, who has built a political career by battling the very agency he is about to lead.
Rep. Waters Refuses to Meet With Trump to Find Common Ground on Policies

“No, absolutely. I do not agree. I tell you that been a problem in my party that when we are in power, we are nice. We bend over backwards to work with people,” Waters said. “Trump has stepped on everybody. He has no respect for his own colleagues, let alone those on the opposite side of the aisle.” [CtH: Bold – What A Steaming Load Of Donkey Doo!]
Trump nixes pet projects of liberal and conservative elites
Not all the consequences are clear. But one thing seems true: the election of President-elect Trump has put the kibosh on two projects long pursued by American elites, the entitlement reform sought by conservative elites and the measures to address climate change sought by liberal elites.
He didn’t have much elite support in his campaign for president, and he has made it plain he’s opposed to significant changes in entitlements and doesn’t see future global warming as justifying measures that kill jobs and choke off economic growth.

Democrats make themselves look ridiculous AGAIN
The RNC’s Christmas greeting included this passage:
“Merry Christmas to all! Over two millennia ago, a new hope was born into the world, a Savior who would offer the promise of salvation to all mankind. Just as the three wise men did on that night, this Christmas heralds a time to celebrate the good news of a new King.”
Biblically illiterate secular humanists immediately concluded:
“The Republicans actually think that ‘this Christmas’ they have a ‘new King’ named . . . Donald Trump!”
This is what you get when you ban schools from studying the Bible. I.e., people who do not know that “Gospel” literally means “good news” and that “the King” with a capital K is Jesus Christ.

Something awful is going to happen
Major metropolitan newspapers are running columns excusing the murder of the Russian ambassador to Turkey because Vladimir Putin is so awful.
It’s not a long drive from there to all the stories claiming Putin hacked the election for Donald Trump to some unhinged person trying to kill Donald Trump.
The media hasn’t missed an opportunity to condemn Republicans as “dangerous.” If Obama or Clinton or someone in the MSM who is influential with Democrats doesn’t condemn this rhetoric strongly and soon, then something awful is going to happen.
Maybe that’s what they want.
One thing we can be sure of … millions of McCain and Romney supporters were deeply disappointed that Obama won, but we didn’t try and trash Obama’s inaugurations. Trump won’t be so lucky.
