It amazes me how thoroughly the left’s indoctrination of its partisan supporters is. It is almost as if they have universally decided to surrender their free will to the collective. I use this as an example. After the President spoke about the shootings in El Paso, TX and Dayton, OH the New York Times published this headline. “TRUMP URGES UNITY VS. RACISM.” Seems pretty fair, but not to the left.
The Twitterverse, led by prominent Democratic politicians, went bat-shit crazy over how the New York Times is now a Trump supporter. Consequently the “Gray Lady” changed its headline in subsequent editions in an effort to appease its real support on the left. Its next effort was “ASSAILING HATE BUT NOT GUNS” and from what I’ve seen the left still isn’t too happy with that.
The Times can’t get back to Trump-bashing fast enough to appease its followers.
It is funny how quickly the story of the Dayton shooting is slipping down from the front page. Once it came out that the shooter was a Democrat who supported gun control and liked Bernie Sanders and Elizabeth Warren it quickly moved to a side story. Even though even CNN was forced to report those facts they managed to do so just as they were going to commercial and without comment regarding earlier speculation.
Of course, fund-raising is always important for Presidential candidates. That’s probably why so many campaign e-mails came out talking about how important it was to send money to candidates in response to the shootings. As one political strategist once noted, “never let a good crisis go to waste.”
