THE COLUMN: Trump, Biden, and the Shame of the Corporate Media
This has been just a terrible fortnight for the Corporate Media and it couldn't happen to a worse, more dishonest group of partisan hacks. First, their Wizard-of-Oz curtain got pulled back to reveal Joe Biden as a befuddled, confused, inarticulate old coot filled with anger and rage at his predecessor and very likely successor -- with Biden acting as his own little dog Toto. Nearly four years of deliberate concealment of evidence that the president of the United States is a barely functioning rutabaga went up in smoke on CNN, with a horrified White House press corps unable to stop it.
Almost immediately, the cry went up from within the DNC bunker that Biden had to go -- a chorus to which the media enthusiastically lent its voice, especially once Moscow Central -- aka, the New York Times -- cleared them to proceed. Never mind that in multiple primaries Democrat voters had already selected Biden for the nomination; who cares about your democracy when "our democracy" is on the line? After all, the Democrats' motto is: "by any means necessary."
The clearest path for Democrats to defeat a candidate defined by his lies is to deal truthfully with the American public: acknowledge that Mr. Biden can’t continue his race, and create a process to select someone more capable to stand in his place to defeat Mr. Trump in November. It is the best chance to protect the soul of the nation — the cause that drew Mr. Biden to run for the presidency in 2019 — from the malign warping of Mr. Trump. And it is the best service that Mr. Biden can provide to a country that he has nobly served for so long.
And then came Saturday night. The headline is priceless:
Suspect came within inches of killing Trump, but left few clues as to why
Saturday afternoon, Crooks slipped into a rooftop location 150 yards (140 meters) from the stage where Trump was speaking in Butler, Pennsylvania. He then began firing an AR-15-style semiautomatic rifle, purchased by his father, authorities said. The gunfire killed a 50-year-old man, critically wounded two other spectators, and struck Trump's ear - an assassination attempt that has further inflamed an already bitter U.S. political divide.
Well, since the gunman is dead, we may never know what caused him to grab his dad's rifle and -- in full view of the crowd gathered for the rally, including the Secret Service -- scoped out the site, climbed onto the roof, planned his line of sight, got into position in front of hundreds or thousands of people, set up in a very visible perch, waited, and then fired. In the aftermath, watching a group of chubby, short female Secret Service diversity hires duck and cover while Trump stood upright in the kill zone, shaking his fist, and then fumbling with their weapons like Fredo Corleone failing to protect his father from assassins crystallized in an instant the catastrophic failure of Diversity Equity, and Inclusion for the whole country see. If the female head of the SS, one Kimberly Cheatle, late of the Pepsi Cola company, had any decency, she would have resigned on the spot:
Ah, but the gunman's motive is entirely unclear. Surely it can't have anything to do with this:
Or this:
We chose the cover image, based on a well-known 1932 Hitler campaign poster, for a precise reason: that anyone transported back to 1932 Germany could very, very easily have explained away Herr Hitler’s excesses and been persuaded that his critics were going overboard. After all, he spent 1932 campaigning, negotiating, doing interviews—being a mostly normal politician. But he and his people vowed all along that they would use the tools of democracy to destroy it, and it was only after he was given power that Germany saw his movement’s full face.
Own it, media.
Today, we at The New Republic think we can spend this election year in one of two ways. We can spend it debating whether Trump meets the nine or 17 points that define fascism. Or we can spend it saying, “He’s damn close enough, and we’d better fight.” We unreservedly choose the latter course.
Unreservedly, TNR, and now you have to live with it. Remember when Sarah Palin ran an ad "targeting" vulnerable congressional seats and the Left lost its collective mind? But it's okay when they do it -- after all, their hearts and minds are in the right place. They live in a feminized fantasy world of violence and revenge, but one in which the consequences of their words and deeds never blow back on them. Let BLM burn down parts of major cities and their fascist goon squad, Antifa, assault real Americans with impunity -- their intentions are pure! And if you disagree, they'll kill you.
The reason the Democrats/Leftists consistently resort to violence is that 1) nobody has ever said no to them and 2) they believe there is only one side to any issue, and that side is theirs. Therefore, they are entitled to do anything in pursuit of their goals, including murder. Whenever the Left forces through their insane social policies, such as "diversity" for its own sake, they expect zero consequences. Everything , including the sexes, is interchangeable. They tear down Chesterton's Fence and then are surprised when bad things happen. Or not, as the case may be...
The truth hurts.
Since the day the first Democrat vice-president (and co-founder of Tammany Hall), Aaron Burr, killed one of the Founding Fathers, they've always been this way. Consider: between 1865 and 1901, three presidents were assassinated, all Republicans. Three of the first six elected GOP presidents were murdered, by Southern sympathizers, anarchist leftists, and sexual weirdos. JFK, the lone Dem, was shot and killed by a Communist.
In addition, there were attempts on the life of Teddy Roosevelt (shot), Ronald Reagan (shot), and Gerald Ford (shot at twice). Within just the past few years, senator Rand Paul was violently assaulted, congressman Steve Scalise was shot by a Trump-hating Bernie Bro, and a Leftist psycho traveled across the country to try and assassinate Justice Brett Kavanaugh. They never stop, they never sleep, they never quit.
