Article by Patricia McCarthy in "The American Thinker":
“Shame was an emotion he had abandoned years earlier. Addicts know no shame. You disgrace yourself so many times you become immune to it.”
― John Grisham
As
anyone who has been watching the daily press briefings about the virus
knows, the duplicitous non-journalists in the room are not one bit
interested in actual facts or any good news about the virus,
hydroxychloroquine, or medical equipment supplies, or any other
information that may be gleaned about the administration’s war against
this flu. They are driven only by their hatred for this President who
has risen to the challenge as a true leader.
President
Trump put the medical and scientific task force together early on, when
the left was paying attention to and reporting only on the
impeachment. He banned travelers from China when the Democrats and
media called him a racist for implementing it, and started screening
passengers from all over the world.
We
see the reporters’ ill-mannered disrespect throughout the mainstream
media, network television, on CNN and MSNBC. No one can miss the truth
of the left’s plan: We can use this virus to destroy the economy and
the country and that will be the end of Trump.
But
it won’t. A majority of Americans can see for themselves that he has
handled this crisis like a pro at problem-solving. Trump is exactly
that, a problem-solver, no matter the magnitude of the problem.
Then there are the foaming-at-their-mouths Democrats in Congress: Nancy Pelosi, as VDH wrote,
has thoroughly disgraced herself over the past many months, from the
Kavanaugh hearings to impeachment, her stunt at the SOTU, her push to
load up the relief bill with regressive, authoritarian pork. She is
truly a vile, evil person. So is Schumer. So is Schiff -- to name just a
few.
Like
the perpetually deranged Maxine Waters, they are addicted to their own
rage and like any addict, the drug destroys the addict that is dependent
on it. It is eating away at them like an opioid addiction.
The
Democrats have been reduced to hurling ridiculous accusations virtually
blaming Trump for every death from the virus when he was on the case
long before any of them were paying any attention to it. The timeline is what it is.
The
left suffers from a dearth of character. Since Trump became President,
they have exhibited and rationalized their toxic dependency on cruelty
to those they abhor – Trump and his supporters. It is a near certainty
that millions of Americans who admire and respect the President’s
leadership have not only lost life-long friends, they have been
viciously and personally vilified by them. This addiction to hating
Trump has destroyed not just friendships but families.
Many
observers have noted over the last three years that the DC
establishment crowd loathes the man because he is an outsider, not a
member of their elite club of self-appointed bosses of the rest of
us. Despite Trump’s phenomenal success in business around the world, he
was never more than a reality show host to them. The left rarely looks
beneath the surface of any issue or person. They rarely for a moment
doubt that their view is the only correct view and assume without
consideration that anyone with a different perspective is a
moron. Simple as that. They never question their certainty that they
are the best and brightest.
So,
when Donald Trump beat their oh-so-corrupt candidate in 2016, they
suffered paroxysms of anger and rage. They have always had contempt for
the Americans between the coasts. No one made that clearer than the
tone-deaf Michael Bloomberg with his admitted disdain for farmers.
The
furious and frenzied left found treatment for their own epidemic of
sudden-onset psychosis by banding together in unity to bring the man
down. They descended into the gutter that is social media to vent their
outrage. The Russia collusion hoax was a bust and so was the
impeachment fantasy.
CNN
and MSNBC began and continue their full assault on the President
24/7. It is pathetic. They ignore or twist any and all facts that
deviate from their narrative. They spew provable lies all day long and
call it news. No wonder their ratings are so very, very low. Truth is
hard; it’s propaganda that is cheap.
The
former media giants like the NYT and WaPo, mere scraps of what they
once were, are similarly addicted to their own rage and so publish
hateful distortions of the truth day after day. A marquee New York
Times columnist called the virus Trumpvirus! They
attacked Trump for his travel ban on Jan. 31. They refuse to
acknowledge that he assembled the task force immediately thereafter.
That
governors like Cuomo were wholly unprepared (Cuomo refused to purchase
ventilators, choosing to invest $750m in solar panels instead) and
blamed the President for their own failures. These Democrat governors
are apparently not familiar with the Constitution or the founders’
creation of federalism. Governors are in charge of their states and the
responsibility for preparedness lies with them.
Trump
masterfully got up to speed to fill the gaps in the states and the
sorry state of medical mask supplies left by the Obama
administration. He brought all manner of private corporations on
board. He has accomplished what no other leader could have or would
have up against such an event. He has surrounded himself with experts
and advisers and he listens to them.
The
left went berserk when he talked about the possibility of
hydroxychloroquine as an effective treatment. Now that it is proving to
be effective, the left is still nonsensically attacking hm for
“pushing” it! He never pushed it; he mentioned it and was hopeful. The
piteously ignorant Mika Brzezinski thinks Trump must have a financial interest
in the drug which has been around since before he was born and is
inexpensive, and other deranged leftists from Sonny Hostin to the New York Times join in the innuendo.
Mika's allegation is tantamount to an accusation that Trump is on the take
The View’s @Sunny Hostin suggests Trump has a financial interest in the non-patented drug hydroxychloroquine: "let’s face it, there’s always something in it for this president when he wants to tout something."
Wow. NYT reports Trump himself has a financial stake in the French company that makes the brand-name version of hydroxychloroquine.
The
nonsense emanating from CNN and MSNBC is appalling. The Trump
presidency has exposed the sheer idiocy of the political, bureaucratic
and media classes. They have succumbed to their addiction to rage
against the Trump machine and it has rotted their brains as surely as
meth rots the brains of meth addicts. And it has reminded all Americans
who our true heroes are – all the doctors, nurses, healthcare workers
and all first responders, truckers who are still getting essentials to
us, and the clerks and staff at our local markets. These are the people
on whom we all ultimately depend upon and they have all risen to the
task.
We
have learned just how irrelevant the Nancy Pelosis Joe Bidens and Chuck
Schumers truly are. Trump knew this when he chose to run for the
office; he knows exactly who makes this nation function and it is not
the political class. And that is why he won. His supporters know he
recognizes and supports them.
“The greatest fool is not the person who has been fooled by the lies of others, despite how crafty and ingenious those lies might have been. Rather, it is the fool who has lied with such amazing dexterity and subtle finesse that he himself has come to believe his own lies. And this is the most forlorn and yet the most dangerous person that I can imagine.”
