A Feature, Not a Bug — Everything Trump Does Triggers the Press

Top O' the Briefing
Happy Thursday, dear Kruiser Morning Briefing friends. The fly in the fricassee cares little for the opinions of displaced Welshmen.
On this week's episode of "Two Americas": Gavin Newsom is the Great White Democratic Hope, and Donald Trump is Hitler Pol Stalin.
It's always surreal watching the Democrats react to anything anymore. They're clinically insane, so those of us who aren't have a difficult time figuring out the color of the sky in their world. And let us all please remember that I am never the sanest guy in the cul-de-sac, so if I think they're nuts, they're really out there.
I'm not alone in this opinion. This is from my friend John Phillips in Los Angeles:
One of the many things I like about President Trump is that he realizes these people are unhinged and out to get all of us. As he has said many times, he's just in their way. He has no interest in playing nice with lunatics like Gavin Newsom. Why try to find middle ground with someone who just wants to shiv you once they get you close?
That doesn't mean that President Trump is deliberately antagonizing the Democrats. Here's merely doing his job. His job happens to be doing what's best for America, and that's what bothers the Dems.
It's mostly the same when it comes to the Democrats' flying monkeys in the mainstream media. What's good for America is bad for the Dems, and therefore, it's bad for them. However, I do believe Trump gets a little charge out of needling them, as he should. David Manney covered one of the MSM's latest Trump-induced episodes:
This is what it always comes back to with these people: Trump says something bold, the media howls “dictator,” and the rest of us are left scratching our heads, wondering how we got from a speech to a constitutional crisis.
Take Fort Bragg.
President Trump stood in front of American soldiers and delivered a hard-hitting, no-apologies speech. He talked about law and order. He criticized liberal-run cities. He called out the dysfunction we all see every day. But because he did it in front of our military, MSNBC melted into a puddle of Cold War-era paranoia.
“Civil war,” they cried. “Militarizing politics.” You’d think he rode in on a tank.
Private practice psychologists in blue cities must be making a fortune these days.
As David points out, the real problem for the Meltdown Brigade this time was that the president was speaking at a military installation. Anything with overtones of classic American patriotism makes the media types apoplectic. The deep bond between President Trump and the troops is evident every time he's with them, and they can't abide that.
So they lie and pretend that we're all living in the Soviet Union 2.0 now.
It wouldn't have mattered if Trump had brought a petting zoo with him and spent the afternoon watching the troops with baby goats and talking about their favorite flavors of pie — the MSM would have retold it as a Stalinesque horror story.
While I obviously don't like the lying, the angst that Trump causes these execrable people is delightful. They deserve it. They tried to destroy him over and over, and it didn't work. His triumph in two elections has hastened the demise of their prevaricating profession, and his presence in the Oval Office is a constant reminder of that. They won't openly admit it, but as I wrote in my latest column, they're not good at hiding it:
The lefties in the MSM know how this all plays out. You can see it in the eyes of the television hacks. They know that they are now nothing more than puppets on a sinking ship. Once upon a time, their false narratives could sway public opinion with the greatest of ease. After failing to prevent the election of the man who they repeatedly compared to Hitler despite engaging in the most galling and concentrated journalistic malpractice in American history, they are broken.
I often say that Trump broke these people. They actually broke themselves, though. They lied about Trump for so long that, in their diseased minds, he really is the monster under their beds.
They're un-American pathological liars. Here's hoping he keeps terrifying them.
