TRUMP BUMP HAS BECOME A TSUNAMI


From the Communist News Network:
First South Carolina, then Alabama and Georgia. Now Florida and Arizona. The "Trump Bump" is better described as a tsunami. 
A month ago, Florida gubernatorial candidate Congressman Ron DeSantis ran a corny but humorous ad about his support of Donald Trump. 
The ad started with his Emmy-winning TV personality wife, Casey, cheerfully stating, "Everyone knows my husband Ron is endorsed by President Trump...but he's also an amazing dad." 
As she speaks, we see Congressman DeSantis teaching his toddler to build a wall, reading Trump bedtime stories and their infant son wearing a MAGA shirt. 
The left-leaning pundits on "Morning Joe" bemoaned the ad and seemed baffled by it. The panelists were so disturbed by the ad that not even safe zones on Ivy League campuses could have helped them. 
But if their thinly veiled disdain for Trump could have been put on hold, they would not have been baffled.
GO READ THE WHOLE THING.

Why Trump Trumps Media Spin
My first reaction to the anonymous anti-Trump op-ed in the New York Times was perhaps unusual for a resident of the swamp, which has been so hyper this week: I chuckled, rolled my eyes, and didn’t even make it to the end of the article before losing interest. 
It probably helps that I spent the week in Colorado and Utah, where seemingly no one cares. In the conversations in which I have participated or overheard, this subject has come up zero times. 
Muted televisions in airports and hotel lounges, which still carry CNN and its angry commentators out of habit, are blissfully ignored as life happens. Most people outside the swamp either know what the media is up to or just don’t care anymore. 
As someone who has held appointed positions in two Republican administrations including the incumbent one, I fall in the former category. I’m quite familiar with the methods the media uses to get unattributed disgruntled junior staff to convey the agenda it desires, which is what’s happening here.
AND THEN THERE'S THIS:

I still believe odds are strong that the NYT insider op-ed is a hoax, but...
somebody suggested Bolton and I have to believe that is possible.

Why Bolton?

Deep state careerist. Loves war as much as McCain. Shortly after assuming his position he threatened NK without Trump's approval and Trump publicly rebuked him. He's been known to nurse a grudge.
