TRUMP USES PROVOCATIVE TERMS BECAUSE HE WANTS TO PROVOKE:
Today’s doozy: Trump compared the Democratic attempts to impeach him over Ukraine to a ‘lynching’.
Sure enough, the media explainers did their job. Lynching, we are told by every wired copy monkey who has to file 600 words to their line editor, is a ‘racially charged/loaded term’ that refers to — here I quote the BBC — ‘historic extrajudicial executions by white mobs mainly against African Americans.’
The inevitable ‘backlash’ follows. Cue pundits and politicos all agreeing that this sort of language from a president is ‘unprecedented’.
Yes, all the people who spent the last four years calling Trump a Nazi are suddenly getting the vapors over this “unprecedented” violation of civility.
UPDATE: Apparently Every Democrat In Existence Used the Term “Lynching” To Defend The Clintons.
Why, it’s as if Trump and staffers researched this stuff before he dropped the L-word.
QED:
