(CNN)We're not even two weeks into the Trump presidency. Has your head exploded yet? If so, you're right where Donald Trump and our shadow ruler, Steve Bannon, want you to be.
The onslaught of executive orders and threatening talk, while entirely in keeping with what Trump promised during the campaign, have left Americans of many political leanings feeling overwhelmed and fearful of what may come next.
Welcome to the shock event, designed precisely to jar the political system and civil society, causing a disorientation and disruption among the public and the political class that aids the leader in consolidating his power. . .

I’m not quite sure how the legitimately-elected President of the United States can be conducting a coup by using his legal and lawful powers in a manner some liberal bedwetter disapproves of.
Here is what Chrissy Mathews says about this. I enjoy watching him and all the rest of the media try to keep up.
The #FAKENEWS media is calling this Trump’s ‘Shock and Awe’
Pretty cool. The corrupt #FAKENEWS media is having a hard time keeping up with Trump’s ‘Shock and Awe’. They are spinning so hard they are losing their minds. They have to follow every one of Trumps tweets, along with all the EO’s and nominees, and the fact that TRUMP and his staff call the #FAKENEWS media #FAKE, that they are about to have a complete meltdown.
I am really enjoying all of this.
“Apocalyptic Matthews: D.C. Is ‘Bound Up in Fear, Rage, and Unbalance’ by Trump’s ‘Shock and Awe’”
“Chris Matthews was on edge Tuesday night as he awaited President Trump’s Supreme Court pick, grimly staring into the camera with an apocalyptic warning that Trump “is, tonight, conducting a campaign of shock and awe against this country’s institutions” putting Washington “on defense.”
“Donald Trump is, tonight, conducting a campaign of shock and awe against this country’s institutions. He is on offense in a capital city not used to being suddenly thrown on defense,” Matthews began in his opening diatribe.”
Designed precisely to jar the political system.
About time and it’s a wonderful thing.
Well, at least it’s under ‘Opinions’ rather than ‘Breaking News’.
Umm...CNN...ValJar was a true puppet ruler, for Obama.
Nice projection/transference, again. Fake news.
Well, OK, it was Soros>ValJar >Obama.
“our shadow ruler, Steve Bannon”
Here we have the NY Slimes in action trying to create a wedge between TRUMP and Bannon.
“Virgil: The Real Purpose of the Left’s Permanent Campaign Against Steve Bannon”
http://www.freerepublic.com/focus/f-news/3520117/posts
“..Main Stream Media tricks, such as the false “argument from authority” and the “assertion of a false conflict.”
Well, the MSM is at it again. This newest trick can be called, “build him up so as to try to knock him down.” A case in point is the lead editorial in The New York Times on January 31, entitled, “President Bannon?””
The only part of ‘shock and awe’ is that CNN isn’t anything but a POS and is not fit for wrapping fish bones or bird cage liner anymore...
ALL of the media is this way...there isn’t one of them that prints the truth of anything...that is the ‘shock and awe’ of this thing: ‘All The Media Are Liars’...
CNN? Reliable news? LOL...
FAKE NEWS
FAKE TEARS
In reading the article you find that the author is playing a funny game of 'Reductio ad Hitlerium' without actually mentioning Hitler:
Their blitzkrieg not only throws us off balance but forces us to take sides. Do I work for Trump or leave the government? Do I issue a statement that my company disapproves of the travel ban? What will my shareholders and stakeholders think? It's no accident that the World War II language of resistance and collaboration has come back into circulation -- these are the situations authoritarians create to divide us, making it easier for them to restrict our freedoms.
You can see them simultaneously casting themselves in the role of the resistance movement.
They must be once again counting for their success on the stupidity-historical ignorance, in this case-of the American people.
And Obama's co-president Valarie Jarrett.
And Obama's many Czars?
And all the militant muslims Obama installed in federal bureaucracies?
And..... And..... And.....
THE WINNING: IT BURNS (them!)
Exactly! ;-)
(and it is good for our nation)
CORRECT.
It is not accidental
The democrats and media are doing it consciously and intentionally to smear Trump will trying to hold on to a thin thread of deniability.
They spent so many months spreading falsehoods about Trump, and concocting this monstrous demon driven by pure evil, that they now either believe the lie they invented, or they are so solidly wed to that memé by now that they cannot let it go, as to do so would be to admit their vast perfidy.
They have painted themselves into a corner from which there is no escape. They are terminal. This garbage ends when they are no longer staining the social fabric with their toxic milieu. May the good Lord deliver us all.
He’s doing what we elected him to do. The people that need to be concerned about their future or the Democrats.
Meh...fake news.
“... while entirely in keeping with what Trump promised during the campaign,...”
In other words: How dare he actually do what he said he would do? No self-respecting politician ever does that!
