The Trump team had known for months that, far from getting even a reasonably fair shake from the Fake News media (and even conservative media), they would face the most blistering, unrelenting, baseless and usually cowardly attacks of any Presidential administration since Abraham Lincoln’s. Team Trump knew that the only hope the Democrats had of stopping the Trump agenda was the “Russian collusion” story, concocted immediately after Hillary Clinton’s loss to explain away her pathetic and horrid campaign. Moreover, Team Trump—and here I’m largely speaking of Steve Bannon and Stephen Miller—fully understood Alinsky-ism and the tactic of isolating people and programs to destroy them one at a time. Even before the inauguration, Bannon had a massive white board with strategic “rollouts” during the first days, not just weeks, and they were all over the map. Everything from regulatory rollback, ending the “mandate” in Obamacare, elevated levels of vetting “refugees,” a travel ban, tax relief, new arrangements with allies—these were all in place when I visited Trump Tower just before the Inauguration.
“How do you like how we’re flooding the zone?” Bannon asked me. Indeed that perfectly described it. The initiatives were so varied, so widespread, that none could be isolated without giving up on all the others, and therefore, none could be attacked with Alinsky tactics.

Thank you. I am encouraged by Trump hiring a bulldog lawyer and Jay Sekelow. For the first time, I’m starting to get concerned over Mueller. I thought one, just maybe ONE of these cretins might actually do their real job and be professional, but his meeting with Comey sets off all sorts of alarms.
If I was still in touch with Team Trump I’d urge them to dismiss Mueller as he has conflict of interest with his friendship with Combover, and would urge Sessions to give his Senate testimony first, the UNrecuse (that is really why he has recused, so that he can give testimony).
When my liberal cousin talks about what a moron
President Trump is, I just remind her he beat 19
republicans AND the smartest woman in the world.
Good one !
Not to mention a very successful CEO. Way more smarts, savvy, and initiative than any career politician.
ROFL!!! That was good!!!
Great article, Larry!
Trump is playing Vulcan 3D Chess against people who are playing Chutes and Ladders.
However, we must never, never, never underestimate the power of sheer HATE, which is what these folks are running on.
It’s all working out -— just as planned — and tweaked !
Listening to Jesse Watters and merging the two
It really lays the foundation for the future
Since Comey has been fired is he also now free to testify ?
Comey the leaker— is he also the unmasker? The spy?
Yes. Excellent article. But it’s a tough fight, because he’s seriously outnumbered by the present politicians, media liars, educators, and all the rest of them. It’s going to take a long time. But it’s a great start.
If a dog poops on the White House lawn, the Democrats will say it is grounds for impeachment. They know the media will act like whatever they recite is unquestionably valid so they can dream up the silliest or most unfounded reasons and know the media will take them seriously.
Therefore, I think the next push is to constantly respond that the Dems haven’t proven anything that could stand up in a court of law and there’s no way a GOP House will vote to impeach. America is tired of all this stalling while little gets done.
We need a way to crystalize that into a slogan.
LAUGHING BUMP TO THE TOP! MOST EXCELLENTLY DONE!
Excellent article from a new for me site, thanks for the intro.
I believe Sessions is giving Senate testimony later this week.
Thanks. I needed that.
keep them coming
I don't believe there was ever any unmasking. I believe Comey had the Republicans and team bernie under direct surveilance for political purposes. They were never masked because they were the targets.
Mueller and Comey are bffs. Whoever thought Mueller was a good choice as special counsel should be fired.
Your site is now on my phone’s home screen - thank you for your work as always!
This needs a thread too. Direct quote from Comey in book about bush matches what he just said about Trump. Liar
