Althouse: I did it.

January 5, 2018

I did it.

I bought "Fire and Fury."

The Kindle version materializes at 9 a.m. ET, 2 1/2 hours from now.

I might just live-blog my power-read-through of the whole thing. If I do, I won't do it like those other people. The Althouse read will be different.

That is all they are good for...to be sneered at for attempting goodness and courage. The superior class knows that you must live by organized theft and slick cover ups that use faked educations and corrupt religions.

And thanks to Trump's superior leadership, we are getting to see this class warfare being won by the assigned losers in life. The superior class is now in a frenzy. They know no other way to live.; 1/5/18, 6:32 AM

So Joe is immediately on record that every page is true, contains no falsehoods or embellishments, not a scrap of untruth in the entire tome?

Now that's just the kind of investigative journalism and fact checking that we've come to expect from the American media!; 1/5/18, 6:45 AM

Luke Lea said...: The people around Trump say a lot of awful things about him: stupid, a fool, a child, etc., etc.. But there is the possibility that they are the foolish, stupid ones for saying the things they did, and that Trump is not as foolish and stupid as they think. Time will tell.; 1/5/18, 8:09 AM
