Enemy of the people is one of the few Trumpisms I felt goes a little too far.
EXCEPT then I saw the newspaper coverage the day after the president went to honor the synagogue victims. According to the headlines, he committed a horrible act against the victims and was tearing the nation’s soul to pieces - by accepting the rabbi’s invitation. I already knew the leftist media was bad but at that moment they descended into hell.

Except Trump never said the press is the enemy of the people. He said the fake news press is the enemy of the people. If you’re not fake news, then you’re not the enemy of the people.

What you need to realize is that when your first impression is that you’re right and Trump is wrong, it usually turns out to be the other way around.

As for Mitt Romney - he’s a jealous, narcissistic loser asshole, and that’s being way too nice to him.

Romney is either a complete idiot, which is of course possible, or more likely being completely disingenuous.

And he’s sort of proving the point. One thing to keep in mind while it sometimes sounds like the president says something “extreme” or off the cuff and unscripted - he is not mistaken, nor is he exaggerating.

Listen to what he says. Not what someone else says he says. And this is the point. He says “fake news is the enemy of the people.” And they are. That’s not the same thing as branding the entire media complex now is it?

The press does this to itself. The president pointed out that there were or are a number of criminals included with the hordes of illegal aliens coming to America. The press then dutifully twists his words, puts words into his mouth that he did not say - “The president is calling all immigrants rapists!!” And everybody runs with it.

This is part and parcel of how the fake news operates, and they use every dishonest trick in the book, smear tactics, guilt by association and other unethical practices. Romney is a pussy if he will not acknowledge that plain fact and come out swinging. They pulled that same kind of crap on him during his campaign. One would think he would know better.

He would be a good ally and spokesman, instead, he’s carrrying their water.

He must be being paid under the table by the donks. Looks like Flake is too, along with so-called “conservatives” and “republicans” in the news outlets. F these people. This shit has to end.
