Personally, I think we need a "crude neophyte" right now. Too much of this "my esteemed colleague", "reaching across the aisle", and overall fear of the press and democrats. The current crop of pols and media like NR, Weakly Standard, and WSJ helped create the popularity of Trump by going against the will of the people and constantly letting us down. If they showed any semblance of a spine and fought as hard as the RATS do, Trump would be a non starter.

I can see your reasoning why they didn't go after Obama at first (Rush was one of the few who showed guts), but its been 7 years since and a lot of other publications have no fear.

You don’t have to be crude and brash to be successful, but i fear that the Nation agrees with you. I can see it now, some opponent ‘Putin say’ makes a derogatory statement about Trump and Trump first response is to stoop to the level of Vinny the cretin ‘FU Putin’ that’s just what we need!
There are ways of responding very force-ably without stooping to the lowest class possible.
I honestly fear that is impossible for Trump not to do, i fear he can’t help himself.
Like the debate last Thursday, ‘little Rubio, little Rubio’ , ‘liar liar liar, pants on fire’. Did Trump ever grow up!
