I assume that some of them are also concerned with the alt-right and its implicit embrace of white supremacists and self-identified Nazis.<br /><br />DJT know that as long as he keeps up appearances, he doesn’t have to be concerned with voters until the 2020 campaign season, and given the seats stake in 2018, the GOP is safe unless there is a shock. Dem politicking will not be sufficient to take back either branch of Congress otherwise.<br /><br />Now the competition of elites begins for the spoils, which involves bring power to bear, forging alliances, and horse trading.Tom Hickeyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08454222098667643650noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2761684730989137546.post-18410665140855605132016-11-15T14:46:08.563-05:002016-11-15T14:46:08.563-05:00Notice that the tip of the spear is anti-semitism....<i>Notice that the tip of the spear is anti-semitism. This is not by accident.</i><br /><br />The MSM is not aware yet that this argument has worn thin. Americans may not have admitted to polsters they were voting for Trump, but they are even more reluctant to admit publicly that the anti-semitism label has started to piss them off. I don't know one person who either doesn't roll their eyes or exhale when an anti-semitism accusation is bandied about.<br /><br />The issues facing American citizens today goes far beyond the concerns of those whose families were wiped out over 60 years ago. The people today are living. The dead are not. The immediate need is clearer.<br /><br />Those living today are suffering from concerns that can be alleviated with better administration. Today. Yeah, yeah, history is a concern. But using it as justification for present action just because a bunch of ugly stuff was done over 1/2 a century ago doesn't cut the mustard when you need a decent job and have to feed the kids.<br /><br />Besides, Jews are just fine in this country. All 2.2% of the US population that they represent.MRWhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13878920695841363553noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2761684730989137546.post-2375274608781601002016-11-14T15:26:56.167-05:002016-11-14T15:26:56.167-05:00Uh oh.

Most political news turns into opinion news. And opinion news gets legs and has an effect via constant amplification of said opinion. This Bannon thing is an example of soft opinion news as Horowitz pointed out above. The Trump accuser news turned into opinion news also viz a viz endless amplification of dubious content. None of this is close to the journalistic integrity seen during the Watergate years. There will always be reporting of facts but unbiased political reporting is pretty much over, and probably never existed in the first place..Maybe going forward reporters could give the caveat that none of what or how I report is absent some form of bias.

The appointment of Bannon is being used as the first salvo to confirm that. It was a gift to the opposition from their POV.
