It's Not Normal

[LowDown]

The Twitter usage, the attacks on the media, the ignorance of the legislature, his comments on the Mueller investigation, some of the things Trump has said, it has often been said, are not normal.

There's truth to this. Trump has said some awful things.

And yet things are fairly normal. The economy is up, America's foreign policy footing is more sound than it has been in a long time by a long shot, and despite all the weeping, wailing, and gnashing of teeth coming from his opponents, the norms and rules of our government haven't been violated

The same can't be said, however, of the media institutions that seem so consumed with saving the republic from the specter of Trump. Like self-appointed superheroes so intent on stopping an alien monster that they end up destroying the entire city, our media are so focused on stopping Trump that they end up undermining both their credibility and faith in American institutions.

The most glaring example of this recently was the American media's fawning over one of the most oppressive totalitarian regimes the world has seen.

And then we got word that Obama asked the FBI and CIA to withhold intelligence from Trump during the transition. That amounts suborning a massive violation of the Constitution.

Trump isn't a normal president. But the threat to our institutions doesn't reside only at 1600 Pennsylvania Ave. -- or even primarily there. It resides with those who are willing to side with any enemy and violate every rule in order to stop the supposed threat of Trump.

So you are admitting your conservative masters played you for a fool when they whipped you into a frenzy concerning mustard, tan suits, etc. Well if you could obediently flip flop on deficits you could obediently flip flop on anything. Come to think of it, is there anything you haven’t obediently flip flopped on?

Wasn't then candidate McCain criticized for not using social media?
