Since the inconclusive (to say the least) July 24 Robert Meuller testimony, the media center gravity has switched back from Russia collusion to leveling charges of racism against President Donald Trump. Evidence for Trump as a racist, according his foes, includes that he used term “very fine people” in the aftermath of the Charlottesville protest that tragically turned deadly.

The media’s assessment of Special Counsel Robert Mueller’s July 24 testimony about Russiagate on Capitol Hill changed considerably within 48 hours of its aftermath. News outlets and pundits hostile to President Donald Trump (are there any other kind?) initially described his out-of-touch, uniformed presentation as a disaster. It was a disaster for those beating the impeachment drum, anyway.
With all the focus among the media and political class on Russian interference in the U.S. electoral process, are these “watchdogs” ignoring China’s ambitions with their witch hunt obsession? China continues to rapidly expand its powerful economic, political, and military tentacles all over the world.
With sometimes impulsive, inflammatory tweets that create needless feuds (and inevitable accusations of all the “isms”) plus the resulting negativity in media and political precincts, President Donald Trump often obscures the actual accomplishments of his administration so far and needlessly elevates several of his foes.
Brexit Party leader and European Parliament member Nigel Farage has noticed that new U.K. Prime Minister Boris Johnson uses similar rhetoric as U.S. President Donald Trump.
By virtually all accounts, Special Counsel Robert Mueller, the “author” of the Mueller Report, came across like a uniformed, absentee landlord in his Capitol Hill testimony on Wednesday about alleged Trump-Russia collusion in the 2016 presidential election. As such, the momentum among House Democrats for a Trump impeachment as a result of this disaster seems to have stalled.
It’s difficult to believe that U.S. President Donald Trump was playing 3D chess when he tweeted out last Sunday that several radical, first-term Democrat Congresswomen (now known as the Squad) should go back to their home countries. The POTUS apparently forgot that when your opponents are fighting among themselves, you should get out of the way.
It’s fair to say that it is unlikely that FNC host Tucker Carlson and Congresswoman Ilhan Omar (D-Minn.) will be sharing a Thanksgiving meal together anytime soon.
While the U.S. is celebrating Independence Day July 4, the U.K. is still trying to resolve the impasse over its independence from the European Union. The British public voted for Brexit about three years ago, but parliament has yet been unable to find its way out. In the meantime, the upstart, Nigel Farage-led Brexit Party, which won big in the May EU parliamentary elections and wants to and appears to be a player domestically, has unveiled its “big vision” for the country.
Most of America who were watching TV during the last two nights were probably watching something else. For those who were tuned in to politics, do you think President Trump lost any votes because of the virtue-signaling pander fest otherwise known as the Democratic Debates?
