National Review: new and improved! Now all anti-Trump all the time! You can’t really blame them tough, they’re just like the rest of the establishment media: frightened to death of Trump because they know he isn’t scared of the media and they can’t control him.

What's a little pussy like Rich Lowry ever done for the country? How many jobs has Lowry created in America? Has he produced anything of value for the common good? No, he hasn't done any of that. Instead he's a GOPe hack and party apparatchik useless to everyone except the GOPe.

That this guy decided to squat down in the gutter and use semi-profanity to dump on Trump is telling of how desperate they are getting. Trump must be squarely over the GOPe target to be taking so much flak. that Lowry and Smelly Kelly are touting FioRINO as a threat to Trump is also quite hilarious.

Go ahead FOX news, keep making boobs out of yourselves and we'll keep laughing.

I was going to ignore this, until the gobbler at National Review, threw my Leftist Alma Mater into the mix in the last line included in the heading.

Having gone to Oberlin in the 1950s, precisely to be able to counter any Leftwing argument that I have encountered since, I will assure everyone that Donald Trump is the absolute antithesis of an Oberlin faculty member--although there is usually one legitimate Conservative, at least, on the faculty, in every era.

The National Review embarrassment--why they printed this, shows remarkably bad judgment;--the gobbler, we say, is unable to differentiate between a whining Leftist, and a patriot just having fun hurling insults back at confused pontificators.

Frankly, I wish Trump would use a little more finesse, on some of the weak sisters, he is attacking. But then no one is perfect, and we need to give Thanks, profound Thanks, for what Trump has already accomplished in disparaging the insanity called "Political Correctness."

Cooke is just downright vulgar and an obnoxious know it all. I’ve followed him on twitter and laughed when he was banned for a bit. His gig is to taunt, and yet he points his finger at Trump? Such irony.

Did Trump really say/Tweet that?

Yes he did - verbatim.

“If he could keep himself from continually insulting people, he’d be at 50% in the polls right now.”

What a great idea. George W kept his mouth shut and ended his presidency with 32% approval.

I like Cruz as well. Trumps New York shtick us beginning to wear thin. But I just had lunch yesterday with a couple of old friends who are pretty much apolitical and they are thoroughly onboard Trumps wagon for two reasons. He says he will close the borders and he will owe nobody anything if elected. They have no idea what the GOPe is nor do they care.

Good points. I’ll vote for the R nominee in the general(except huckster.Bush or Paul) but Trumps constant attacks on EVERYONE is getting old. Let’s see what happens.

Ask yourself, is this (raging against both friend and foe, an inability to hold to a declared truce w/Fox, speaking less and less about issues of the day and more about his ego maintenance ) the logical pattern of public behavior for someone who says he wishes to be your next president?
I say no, it is not.

Unless he has lost the fire in the belly, and is preparing to pass the baton to his erstwhile protege; one Rafael Edward Cruz aka Ted Cruz. If this happens, I hope Cruz joins forces with Rubio. There are not many other choices available. At least not at this time.

Thanks. So Trump's solution in answer to a critical member of the press exercising the 1st amendment is to call in the federal government, via the FCC, to punish that person? Interesting.

I was not aware of Mr. Cooke before reading this piece. It is an attempt at a clever hit piece; but I wrote better hit pieces against anyone who challenged me on the Oberlin campus during my four years there, often when I was in my cups.

A good hit piece must resonate at least in actual truth--it just, of course, picks and chooses what truths to employ. But simply name calling reveals--starkly reveals the amateur. Thus I called him a gobbler with absolute certainty that closer analysis would make the implied figure of speech stand up.

People like Cooke will only impress those who agree with them, but who also fall below the level of intelligence to even appreciate the implied issues involved. Any really intelligent person who might agree with his likes and dislikes, will be embarrassed by further, or closer, examination of his work product.
