While we’re all busy attacking Loser Donny over his wealth of personal failings, we’re also delivering to Loser Donny just want he wants.: A complete lack of discussion of policies.
And let’s not rush off to blame “the media” for this. We’re equally distracted by Loser Donny’s excellent imitation of PT Barnum here on DailyKos.
Let us take a moment and get back to the issues and see who’s hiding there…
Remember when, oh so many months ago, economists on both the left and right attacked Loser Donny’s fiscal policies are being completely unworkable and they’d balloon the deficit? What happened to that discussion? It got lost in Loser Donny's PT Barnum antics.
Let us take a calm step back and look at two key policies on which Loser Donny has been campaigning, but which are not generally being discussed in the appropriate detail and even less so in combination:
#1. Tax paybacks for billionaires like Loser Donny himself.
#2. YUGE increases in military spending Loser Donny has now been parading around to court the vets.
Is there something familiar sounding about those two taken together? There should be. Behind Loser Donny’s PT Barnum antics is hiding Loser W. We haven’t been seeing it because we’ve allowed ourselves to be distracted by the PT Barnum antics. And let’s not blame “the media” because we’re not seeing it discussed on DailyKos for the most part either.
When we get down to analyzing actual policy positions, what we find is a Loser Donny who’s a classic “establishment Republican” with very little difference from Loser W. Loser W is back again, but this time he has a far more distracting stage act. “Loser W is back again" is something we need to make sure the independents understand.
We all know “the media” has become followers and not leaders when it comes to discussing issues. They want to cover what they think people want them to cover.
We all need to start yelling very loudly about tax breaks for billionaires, massive military spending, and Trump just being W with a more distracting stage act. It’s time to start loudly attacking Loser Donny on the issues he’s trying to keep hidden behind his carnival routine — loudly enough to get the attention of “the media”. “The media” will cover whatever it is they think is of interest to the public, so it’s our job to let “the media” know we’re VERY interested in this FACT Loser Donny is nothing more than “trickle-down W” with a more distracting stage act.
We need to all start Tweeting the journalists (Maddow, etc), the “comedy” shows (Colbert, Oliver, etc), and any journalist who we’ve seen commenting about the dismal failure in covering Loser Donny. If everyone starts Tweeting this same message about Loser Donny having the same policies as Loser W, they’ll start waking up to the realization it is something they’ve overlooked.
