What Happens When You Rescind an Invitation to Trump? (Erickson Whining)
RedState ^ | 08/09/2015 | Erick Erickson

Posted on 08/09/2015 7:55:24 PM PDT by nhwingut

What happens when you rescind an invitation to Donald Trump?

Well, my RedState email is suddenly maxed out due to a flood of very angry emails. I’ve been called queer, an n-word lover, Megyn Kelly has been referred to as the c-word.

My office phone line’s voicemail has also gotten maxed out with angry phone calls.

Last night, people were leaving voicemails in my hotel room — having somehow managed to navigate the hotel switch board. At 3 o’clock this morning I had to unplug the phones in my room.

My twitter feed is unusable. It’s just angry people, many of them very recently created accounts of people following few others and with little to no followers. But I can’t interact with much of anyone because of the timeline.

Greta Van Susteren exacerbated it earlier today with her tweet piling on me, which brought in her followers on top of Donald Trump’s. They could not really distinguish that I had apologized for things I had said and Trump just changed his story.

Facebook is much the same way.

RedState suffered a denial of service attack throughout the night and into this morning.

I doubt Trump takes any more action against Erick - not that he took much at all. Erickson's actions speak for themselves, and the natural fallout is probably "reward enough." He's stuck with being known as the guy who banned Trump, that label sticks.

Right on the money that his friends, the ones who put him up to this (probably indirectly), want some distance, at least in public. He'll get his pity party, but they are glad he took the leap for them.

Okay. That one went right over my head.

Too bad this guy has too much pride (and not enough brains) to realize he should stop digging.

Doesn’t sound like he’s whining. Sounds like he’s reminding people what Trump really is, just your garden-variety neighborhood bully.

FR seems fine with that, though. But only when Our Churchill is doing the shoving.

He needs to prove this crap and show the tweets and emails calling him a “n -lover”. I don’t believe it. He’s doing the same thing McCain did. He’s slandering Trump supporters.

Glancing at his Twitter timeline, I see he is quoting Bible passages now.

lol, I am sure he needs more nasty everything. He should have known. Very satisfying. What will happen on his radio show? I may have to listen for a few minutes for the first time ever.

I rarely listen to any sub. I just use the time to get other things done around my house.

Hey Eric,
How’s the saying: I love the smell of napalm in the morning...

Erick says it’s his way or the highway. Only he knows best.

The comments on that page look suspiciously like Erick is deleting all the ones except the ones that say “We love you Erick”!

I’ve posted a negative one and am waiting to see how long it lasts before it’s deleted.

I suggest others here at FR do the same thing.

Treasure these moments, Erick. Pretty soon no one will be calling you at all.

Keep drinking Trumps kool aid. This goofball has as much chance as winning local dog cather as Cutler’s bugler
