Kristol now resorting to the reductio ad hitlerum:
Prediction: Peak Trump will prove to be just before 7:00 pm, Dec. 30, 2015, when he foolishly attacked @weeklystandard.

Trump seemingly using 'divide and conquer' to isolate the neo-con wing:
I never thought I'd be saying this but I've really enjoyed @RichLowry on television lately, and he was terrific hosting @seanhannity

Rumors of Trump's demise continue to be greatly exaggerated.
ReplyDeletePart of Trump's "master persuader" plan (het Scott Adams) is to get the opposition to kill itself off.
ReplyDeleteLowry is a little Dracula-weasel and will never break with Kristol and the boys at neocon, Weekly Standard. He fucking adores being in that club.
ReplyDeleteAnd I have to say that Trump's praising of Lowry was a disappointment, although I admit I may have missed it if that was his master plan. If it was, it was too subtle for me to pick up on, but brilliant nonetheless.
Mike I think this "Trump vs. Neo-cons" aspect is interesting...
ReplyDeletePat Buchanon tried it already way back in the 90s and it didnt work for him (FD I voted for Buchanon in those Primaries back then...)
Maybe Trump is more charismatic/cunning than Buchanon was and maybe he can pull it off this time 20 years later... Trump also has 20 years of failure to point back at that Buchanon didnt have ...
I'm going to keep an eye on it and continue to report developments...
