"... why he would want to have dinner with an overt anti-Semite and dinner with a white-supremacist Jew-hater, an ugly, ugly scum like Nick Fuentes. And Trump says, 'I didn’t know who it was.' Even if I take him at his word, that he didn’t know who Fuentes was, fine, now he knows. Why doesn’t he say, 'Fuentes is a despicable scum whose beliefs have no place in the United States of America'?"
Said the head of the Zionist Organization of America, Morton Klein, quoted in "A Right-Wing Zionist Digests Trump’s Anti-Semite Dinner Party/Can the former President be the 'best friend Israel ever had in the White House' while also legitimatizing 'Jew-haters'?" (The New Yorker). The Z.O.A. recently gave Trump an award designating him the "best friend Israel ever had in the White House."
Does this help make sense of what happened: "Milo Yiannopoulos claims he set up Fuentes dinner ‘to make Trump’s life miserable’/Rightwing provocateur says he helped arrange for white supremacist to attend dinner with Trump and Kanye West" (The Guardian).
“I wanted to show Trump the kind of talent that he’s missing out on by allowing his terrible handlers to dictate who he can and can’t hang out with,” Yiannopoulos said. “I also wanted to send a message to Trump that he has systematically repeatedly neglected, ignored, abused the people who love him the most, the people who put him in office, and that kind of behavior comes back to bite you in the end.”...
“This is just not true at all,” Fuentes said on the messaging app Telegram.... “My intention was not to hurt Trump by attending the dinner, that is fake news. I love Donald Trump.”

It doesn't matter who you have dinner with. It's all cancel culture.
Why do people demand that others speak words that align with the former's political POV? "Everyone must think and act like me and then the world would be a better place."
MYOB. Have a blessed day.

This type of stuff was the basis for the ambush-comedy-farce movie Borat (2006). Same practices, same personality types, same knee-jerk reactions and claims of being offended.

We live in a superficial "gotcha" world, so why is anyone surprised by any of this? Blame Trump, sure. Blame deranged Trump haters, yep. Blame the aggressive "comedians" too.
Why doesn’t he say, 'Fuentes is a despicable scum whose beliefs have no place in the United States of America'?"
Because not everything requires ritual denunciations.
Believe it or not, most people never heard of Nick Fuentes before this incident.
1) Trump will always look bad about this to the Left.
2) Fuentes sounds like a BAP lad. Many of these guys say the most offensive things as rebellion rather than deeply-held beliefs.
3) Milo is a pot-stirrer. We've all known for years that he's mischievous, reckless, and impulsive.
4) Trump looks bad to the Right because this is something he should know about his followers. We all want the establishment broken up, but our methods are very different. Some are conventional, and that's the Trump sweet spot, and some are dark and ugly.
Why doesn’t he say, 'Fuentes is a despicable scum whose beliefs have no place in the United States of America'?"
Liking Trump is infuriatingly difficult because to misconstrue what he says and does is a thriving cottage industry that only seems to grow with each failure to banish him from the Public Square, turning him into a much needed figure when superficiality is construed as substance and substance an impediment.
I do not understand how this is still a story. Trump likes people who are nice to him. Kanye is nice to him. Kanye probably always has an entourage, so having extra people at dinner isn't that strange.
Now should Trump have declared Kanye off limits because of the ranting? Maybe, but if Kanye's latest antisemitism has shown me anything, it's that antisemitism is way more common in the black community than any of us have realized. Farrakhan has more hold on the culture than anyone wants to acknowledge. But confronting that is more complicated than denouncing Trump.
"terrible handlers". That part sounds right. Move on to DeSantis.
Unforced error
What ever *this* is, Trump is free of responsibility.
"Bleak House has many very realistic and sympathetic characters, but Skimpole is not one of them. He is a leech who pretends that he is just too naïve and charmingly childlike to understand responsibility. In reality, of course, he is way too clever for any of that baloney to be true."
'Even if I take him at his word, that he didn’t know who Fuentes was, fine, now he knows. Why doesn’t he say, 'Fuentes is a despicable scum whose beliefs have no place in the United States of America'?"' Because he's Trump. Because he doesn't play other people's games, and you can't force him to, and that was part of his appeal. Just because you're flipping out over unimportant loser white supremacists that literally none of us had ever heard of a week ago, doesn't mean he has to. Obviously someone "who's an extraordinary friend of Israel" etc. doesn't need to prove his pro-Jew bona fides.
I will go out on a limb and say that, head of the Zionist Organization of America, Morton Klein never asked President Obama Why doesn’t he say, 'Farrakhan is a despicable scum whose beliefs have no place in the United States of America'?"
If he didn't, he can just sit this one out.
This breathless, over the top handling of everything Trump does or doesn't do is really getting tiresome.
When it come to Trump you can tie yourself in knots trying to make sense of things when the answer is simple- narcissism.
West is a famous guy that has said nice things about Trump. That’s it. As Dr. Oz and Herschel Walker show, Trump thinks celebrity is a qualification in and of itself.
It has long been observed that Trump measures someone’s entire worth as a human being based entirely on how they kowtow to his oversized ego. The more they debase themselves in service to Trump’s ego the better - see Rudy Giuliani.
EVEN NBC news says he was set up by Milo. https://therightscoop.com/nbc-news-explains-how-trump-was-blindsided-by-kanye-west-and-milo-yiannopoulos/
Yes, that helps make sense of what happened. But these three things can be true:
1. Trump is in no way anti-semitic.
2. Trump was set up.
3. Trump has no discipline to avoid these situations.
AND Trump invited Ye. He didn't invite, nor did he know Ye was bringing assholes with him. Obama invited Sharpton to the White House over 80 times. Obama is an Anti Semite?? He must be according to the left.
All the political "experts" are aghast that Trumps handlers let this happen. People still refuse to understand that Trump does his own wet work. In Public, during daylight hours, for all to see. All politicians get caught up in situations like this. The difference, their handlers, work very hard to keep almost all of these interactions secret, out of view, with plausible deniability, crafted before the event. Dem politicians don't have to work so hard because the media does most of the work.
I find it interesting Trump is unfit because he got in close proximity to an obnoxious guy for a couple of hours.
Obama spent 20 years in the pew listening to the rantings of the good Rev, Jeremiah Wright, but his antisemitism is a kinder gentler version of antisemitism.
This just the same story smearing Trump, retold to the same audience.
It seems to me that the people elevating the opinion of this Nick Fuentes are the ones that want to make Fuentes opinions important enough to discredit Trump.

Why is nobody talking about how bad Desantis's handlers are doing?
Because the media is one of Desantis's Handlers.
His handlers are the same GOPe corporate oligarchs that have been betraying you for decades.
People are not paying attention if they think Desantis is the answer to "Get better handlers."
Please don't be this stupid.
Like Ed Snowden shared.. A 1983 viral video of a CIA agent confessing to using the U.S. media to control American citizens. That is exactly what THIS is and what all the fake Russian Collusion and all the other lies the Progressives have been spewing have been all about...
https://twitter.com/Snowden/status/1589606899569377282?
Everyone universally agrees they hate politicians because they always make all decisions about how it affects their political brand.
Here is Trump. Inviting his Friend, who is damaged goods, into his home. Honoring the friendship, ignoring the optics, and its Trump in the wrong.
See above. How Obama exiled his mentor and long term pastor. Publicly denouncing him, and leaving him twist the wind alone.
For a people who don't control media headlines, they sure do consider the issue of how you view them as front-and-center of what the public should worry about. Has anyone ever asked on tv if someone's plus one had the correct opinion of Finns or Ecuadorians or Lesothans or Cambodians, and how this should impact their public reputation or opportunities?
Turn it around. Why doesn't Obama, Biden or Clinton say Sharpton is a despicable scum whose beliefs have no place in the United States of America'? Or Louis Farrakhan??
There is no nascent Nazi movement in the U.S., except for BLM, DNC’s brownshirt militia.
BLM is an actual Nazi paramilitary that the DNC trots out in the run up to presidential elections. BLM does real Nazi stuff, like torching and looting cities and attacking cops.
Every Democrat, every single one, there is no exception, regularly kneels before the racist anti-Semites Louis Farrakhan and Al Sharpton. They kneel and suck in the poisonous pus that gushes forth from these slobs. They suck it in and let it melt in their mouths and dribble down their chins.
Trump, on the other hand, has Jewish relatives and engineered the Abraham accords.
So spare me.

The Never Trumpers cannot be honest about why they oppose Trump or the people he endorses.
Republicans all over the country like Raffensburger and Vos and Doucey and McConnell are sabotaging the republican party and betraying republican voters.
They are also trying to take the party back to 65 million vote candidates instead of Trump who got 75 million votes.
The Never Trumpers want open borders, endless wars, and free trade with China. They just pretend to oppose the purple hair part.
But the Never Trumpers will accept the purple hair part if they can get the open borders free trade with china endless wars and amnesty.
Meanwhile, while the media and the left is hyperventilating about this....
The detainee's in Bidens DC gulag are being sexually assaulted after being behind bars for over 2 years for taking selfies in the Capitol after being ushered in by the Capitol police. We suck. We aren't any better than China or Cuba anymore. Human rights?? Who needs human rights?? Right??

Why do these liars keep saying “Trump legitimized” Fuentes? I understand the usual lame “he didn’t condemn the dude as harshly as I prefer” argument although my understanding it should not be seen as legitimizing such nonsense. But Trump did nothing to elevate the Mexican-American white supremacist. Now both the other guys in the trio of tricksters admit they purposely set Trump up. Anyone who had friends go nuts and flip out suddenly as Kanye obviously has recognized this setup and it reflects poorly on the deceptive guys not IMO on the guy who was punked and now has distanced himself from the one guy he knew and the two he didn’t.
Not sure why Althouse keeps bringing up the subject every day but maybe some insightful reader will post some fresh take on this stale tale.
Know your enemy: diversity [dogma] (i.e. color judgment, class-based bigotry).
Why doesn’t he say, 'Fuentes is a despicable scum whose beliefs have no place in the United States of America'?"
Because diversity [dogma] is a mainstream belief of left-wing America under their nominally "secular" ethical religion.
The Rabbi could have stopped at "it makes no sense." The answer to the Rabbi's question is that Trump is careless and really doesn't believe anything. He has always been a huckster. From here on out, we are going to get nothing coherent from Trump, who is struggling to get attention.
Attention is the oxygen that these characters (Trump, Fuentes, Kanye, Yiannopoulos) crave. Why give it to them?
Trump used to do some good things. He has stopped doing good things. He is going to do stupider things from here on out. Calling his propaganda organ "Truth" is a great example. What does "pravda" mean in English? He would have been better off calling it "The Trump Telegram". His post-2020 election behavior has been a disaster for him. He is over. He is never going to win again.
Paying attention to Trump is wasted time. Don't do it.
By the way, journalism is broken. It is all propaganda as far as the eye can see. We don't get the news, if we ever did. We get leftie hype and lies for the most part. At least Fox News asks some amusing questions. The newspapers are a joke, even the news pages of WSJ. Here is an example: Did Musk attack Apple, or did Apple threaten Musk? The news pages tell me Musk attacked Apple. Really? I think Apple threatened Musk by suggesting that the Twitter app could be removed from the App Store. The coverage of Musk/Twitter is both hilarious and appalling, with "journalists" crying out for censorship of disfavored views. How did Sam Binton (Yul Brynner in lipstick) get put in charge of anything? What kind of person goes "shopping" at the luggage carousel of a major airport. A thief? Great.
The news media allow only Truth, Comrades.
We need a return of common sense.
Oh Wendybar we know the Left never use the “associated with” tar-baby on their own side! Never! They can be buddies with cop killers and pal around with terrorists and promote antisemitic tropes openly. They still laugh and pretend they don’t know what Palin even meant with her reference to Kashogi or whoever that guy Obama celebrated on that video the LA Times still won’t release. They don’t care because the media continually promotes their myths (see today’s topic again) and mocks and minimizes any suggestion of impropriety on Lefty allies.
I'm reminded of the attempted assassination of Louis XV by Robert-François Damiens. The weapon was a pen knife--there was no real intent to kill the King. Damiens said he was motivated by a desire to remind the king of his duties to his people and thereby help him be a better king.
He was slowly, publicly, brutally, tortured to death.
Let me know when he invites Bill Ayers, Al Sharpton and Anita Dunn to join him for a round of golf. I’ll join your Trump-hate pile on.

Trump was set-up.
Trump sure does like to walk into the traps set for him. Leadership!
spare us the "but the democrats are anti-Jewish bed sitters"
WE KNOW!
The media gives the collective left a pass.
Trump did a lot of great things. Things no other President in decades had the courage to do. Most of all, he put America first, which to the left has somehow come to mean White Supremacy.
But Trump has always made too many simple, obvious forced errors. He does not know when to NOT speak. He does not know when to keep his thoughts private. And he does not know how to control his impulse to always be The Headline. He's always been that way. It did not start when he became President, and we all knew that about him going in.
However, when your normal operating mode is scattershot and can be changed up on a moment's notice in order to respond to bullshit on social media, you're going to make some scattershot moves that shoot your own foot. If he did this sort of thing once in awhile he'd still be President. But he does it all the time. It's part of what makes him so compelling a personality. Its part of what drives him to do great things. But it's also what creates multiple unnecessary messes for himself and those following him.
Trump was duped.
Trump was set-up.
Impressive.
Didn't we read that Fuentes and Trump fawned over each other at the dinner?
again - more 3-D chess.
The Democrat ads write themselves.
AMDG - 7:40 #
That. Trump's ego is all that remains. The dems are salivating over his being the 2024 nominee.
Anther snare for the win.
The left have many anti-Semites among them. What this ridiculous dinner accomplished was removing any of those from the headlines. Not that it would matter.
Trump is not an antisemite. What else about this matters?
Trump met with Ye despite Ye's recent manic episode because they have a long standing, mutually supportive relationship.
Trump does not consider himself bound by the dictates of cancel culture. Do you?
The subtle **whys and why nots and *no fairs*** do not matter. When you are running for president, you don't fuck chicken this early in the game.
As for gathering questionable people around him, every President in my lifetime has done this to an extent. No one in my life has a worse group of cretins around them than our current Somnambulant Executive. They are miscreants of the highest order.
I don't begrudge Trump's inner circle, but he's got to know better about hanging around with people like Milo. I know I've read the name Nick Fuentes over the last few years, but never paid any attention to it. The reason? Everyone on the right is called a white supremacist Nazi, Klan member. I'm sure I'd be called that if I had a larger presence on social media (or any presence). So when I hear accusations like that, to me they fall flat. They are meaningless.
And frankly, I don't care enough about Nick Fuentes to look him up and see if he's what the Left claims he is. They've cried 'wolf' about so many conservatives being Klan members for so long, I don't even pay attention to it anymore.
Wendybar is right.
"Here is Trump. Inviting his Friend---"
Abrupt stop. Trump doesn't have friends, just as he has no scruples or convictions. His relationships are strictly transactional, based on what the other person can do for him, or how much the other person flatters and panders to him. (I suspect this is true even within his family.)
What Meade said.
I second Meade. Obama practically lived with terrorist cop killing bombers (and sex abusers) Bernardine Dohrn and Bill Ayers for eight years. He lied about it. Michelle lied about it. The media and politicians and law professors and famous novelists lied about it.
All the fact checkers lied about it.
Al Sharpton tried to kill people. Now the Democrats kiss his ring.
I met Milo once. He was out of his mind on something, being managed by Steve Bannon. Milo, Bannon, Glen Beck and the leaders of Tea Party Patriots were paid by the Koch to destroy the Tea Party. They succeeded and we lost the movement and the Senate. Our bad.
Politics ain't beanball. It's lying. The best liars don't run for office: they manipulate the people and the candidates.
Why does Trump get a pass for inviting YE? YE's nutty Jew-blame garage is just as bad as a Farrakhan.
Not sure why Althouse keeps bringing up the subject every day but maybe some insightful reader will post some fresh take on this stale tale.
This is the Madison, WI wing of the "force Trump out of public life" brigade. The threat he still poses to the leftists running this country into the ground is real. He did something no professional politician does. He kept his promises.
"Every Democrat, every single one, there is no exception, regularly kneels before the racist anti-Semites Louis Farrakhan and Al Sharpton. They kneel and suck in the poisonous pus that gushes forth from these slobs. They suck it in and let it melt in their mouths and dribble down their chins."
My, how...vivid. Truly felt! I hope you cleaned up after that.
John Kerry shakes hands with a guy on the DOJ's most wanted list. Crickets.
meanwhile Biden and his son are still crooks.
I know, right? When will the media find out?
Maybe, but if Kanye's latest antisemitism has shown me anything, it's that antisemitism is way more common in the black community than any of us have realized.
@Birches, I’m sorry, friend, but you haven’t been paying attention for the past 60 years or so. Farrakhan and Jesse Jackson (of “Hymie town” fame) have never been outliers.
Has he ever invited abortionists to dinner? Feminists? Masculinists? Social progressives? Did he ever invite Gosnell? Cecile? Biden? Obama? That would be extreme and a clear burden to be reported.
Trump and Ye are pals? YE dumped Trump/MAGA at the first sign of adversity back in 2016.

Althouse accepts the corporate media as her thought leaders.
She wants to remain in mainstream US political culture and be accepted in the political class tribe. You have to accept the NYT and New Yorker and WAPO in order to do this. If you don't know what those people are saying and accept it as the current overton window you are probably a Deplorable.
Deplorables more readily accept that we are all flawed. Even the rapists and scumbags that Ann has voted for are flawed. But caricatures are created in the media so people can lie to themselves about what they support. This is a basic tribal habit.
Ann will not allow herself to be a Deplorable. They are hated by the tribe she has belonged to her whole life. These are biologically deep seated prejudices. We all have them.
Fuentes sounds like a present participle.
Ah, the 'Rinse - repeat' part of the news cycle rolls into view. >yawn<
Never mind what he has done. It's all about who he has dinner with. Gee, I hope this doesn't erode his huge Jewish base who appreciated his support when President. /S
Trump's friends are mostly fair weather friends. As for the Jews, read the Old Testament. They turned on God. Why not Trump? Why don't they turn on the Dems? Read the OT.
You would think Trump would get tired of the BS since the lefties never do. Maybe the BS is what motivates him.
Let me offer a different angle: This whole event, that is, the dinner with "Ye", paints a uniquely warm and positive picture of Trump, as one who is a truly loyal friend to Kanye (in serious trouble and not doing well, being pressured from all sides). It is a bit similar to his supporting relationship to Omarosa, an equally troubled person who also betrayed him badly. In any non-partisan, calm analysis, this would be taken as positive. It also complicates the whole "Trump is a horrible racist".
Now, admittedly there is another intriguing angle here that connects everyone involved and that is less positive -- the Nation of Islam involvement in 2016 elections, when their leader invited his followers to NOT vote for Hillary in his key sermon, which could be important for Michigan and Pennsylvania. But that seems far too "multidimensional chess move".

Circa now - Trump is an old, tired, dick-stepping, trap walking, loser - who will hand us 4 more years of Biden.
That I never dump on Progressives? are you high?
Yes, Trump should denounce Fuentes, and at the very least distance himself from Kanye. That's what you do if you want to win elections, but if you haven't spent your whole life in politics, you probably aren't looking for and hoping for and cherishing "Sistah Souljah moments." Not being a conventional politician was a plus for Trump. This is the minus that goes with it.
I'm curious about reports that Milo went with West and Fuentes in order to embarrass Trump. His motivation (and Fuentes') in going to Mar-a-lago ought to be examined more closely, but continuing to focus on that keeps bringing Trump's motivation in seeing them into focus as well. Old Trump can't win and New Trump never turns up and isn't likely to.

@John Borell, and your list should have one more item on it:
4. As amply demonstrated by the crappy campaign he ran in 2020 and the poor job he did vetting and supporting candidates this past year, Trump has very poor political instincts.
From reading the comments it appears that Trump is in a strong position to get the nomination, and in a strong postion to lose in 2024 (against someone other than Biden or Harris). Love will lead to heartbreak.
According to the Jewish Virtual Library (https://www.jewishvirtuallibrary.org/jewish-voting-record-in-u-s-presidential-elections), after Trump was such an "extraordinary" friend to Israel that he received an award designating him the "best friend Israel ever had in the White House," Jews voted 68% for Biden. Maybe Klein should be asking questions of his own people rather than Trump.
Three points:
1) Hating Jew-haters is only slightly less immoral than hating Jews, and twice as foolish. You'll never persuade an antisemite to reconsider his bigotry through hatred and ostracism. That stupid tactic simply confirms his habits of mind.
2) Denying the historicity of the Holocaust is not necessarily an antisemitic shibboleth. It is often used as a premise of a logical though false argument against Zionism, which, again, is not necessarily a manifestation of antisemitism. Some of the most outspoken and around-the-bend anti-Zionists are ultra-Orthodox Jews. There's this American cultural archetype called the self-loathing Jew, however, the phenomenon of anti-Israel Jewry is not an example of it.
3) The really dangerous antisemites are not Holocaust deniers. (Ye gods, how I despise this "denier" talk. It strikes me as nothing short of Orwellian mind control in operation. The person with denier! accusations on his lips has a Nazi inside him lusting for another sort of Holocaust.) They don't deny the Einsatzgruppen or the gas chambers because they're proud of them. They only regret the interruption of the process.

Obama is an Anti Semite?? He must be according to the left.
Obama was anti-semetic, based on his policies as well as the people he chose to associate with - even WAPO agrees that it is "correct to label the Obama administration as anti-Israel" (https://www.washingtonpost.com/blogs/right-turn/wp/2016/01/20/why-its-correct-to-label-the-obama-administration-anti-israel/).
Of course, despite this, Obama got 71% and 68% of the Jewish vote. Again, maybe Klein should look inward rather than cast aspersions at Israel's greatest ally in the White House in my lifetime.
Trump shouldn't denounce anyone. When are people EVER going to learn? Apologizing doesn't work. Disavowing doesn't work. Constantly talking about how "My best friends are..." or "No one is more against X, then me".
IT-DOES-NOT-WORK.
The people attacking Trump aren't good faith actors. They never are. This is a weapon to beat Trump with. And they'll keep on beating him with it, till they find something better. Probably next week. Biden is still calling Trump a Nazi for saying their were "fine people on both sides" in 2017.
Disavowing is the standard Republicans tactic. They're losers. The D's wouldn't even attack Antifa when they were burning things and attacking people. The R's collapse into a pool of tears if the MSM calls them a name. And MAN, do they LOVE attacking other R's. Lets keep attacking Trump and lose in 2024, then we can pass a law enshrining Drag Queen hour!

I knew McCain was going to lose in 2008 when he chose to "take the high road" and make no mention of Obama's Rev. Wright.
He needed to stick Wright up Obama's ass every day until Obama cried uncle. But McCain didn't want to be "divisive". LOL, look where that got us.

Imagine if you were living in slavery with "your people" and had a religion imposed on you that made a fetish out of the delivery from slavery of some other people back in the Bronze Age, and then in modern times, when you know that humanity arose in Africa and that if there ever did exist an "Adam and Eve" of the human race, they were black Africans, rather than Jews, then it seems kind of inevitable that some blacks would come to think that their story had been stolen from them. The fact that it's all Bronze Age story-time fantasy, which has lived through today only due to its utility in holding groups of people together, with a working moral framework, is irrelevant.

I think the message to Trump must have been "You are a stupid attention whore. We are your comrades. Brothers-in-arms are we."
Great.
YE dumped Trump/MAGA at the first sign of adversity back in 2016.
That's not accurate, Hook.
Search Kanye West in a MAGA hat and see lots of pictures and stories of Ye in the Oval hugging Trump. That was in 2018.
Is Trump going to disavow Kanye publicly and lose a lot of support and good will in the Black community? Undo years of work? In exchange for what? Would that make the NeverTrumpers or the Trump haters suddenly reconsider? Would it get him good press? Are any of his detractors going to say, "Oh, I was wrong, Trump is not racist or a white supremacist?" They would say he was just using Ye and cast him aside at the first sign of trouble.
The left media has been tying Trump to racist groups and individuals from day 1. It's their M.O. Fine people hoax? Fuentes is not the first nazi loser the media tried to tie Trump to. Remember when Robert Spencer said he was a Trump supporter? The media was all over that, just like they are now, claiming the statement proved Trump was a white supremacist and many Republican politicians promptly lifted their skirt hems and fled back into the swamp.
Should Trump be our candidate? I don't know. Too early for me. You've made up your mind and that's fine, but this is just another attack on Trump like so many before it. Anyone who thinks Trump is an antisemite, thought so before this incident and is seizing on this as confirmation of a cherished belief not supported by objective fact.
That the media (hack-D) suppress anything that makes a democrat look like the leftist authoritarian Jew-Hating crooks that they are?
No news at 11.
Look, none of the people wailing and screaming care about Nick Fuentes, whoever the hell he is, or about Kanye West, or Milo or even care about antisemitism. This is nothing more than another exercise in let's-get-Trump.
Althouse Blog Commissar (self-appointed): "Circa now - Trump is an old, tired, dick-stepping, trap walking, loser - who will hand us 4 more years of Biden"
Hey dummy, at the pace McConnell is setting with Schumer right now, Biden will complete 4 years worth of destruction in the next 6 months. Biden wont need 4 more years.
I suspect our Commissar will continue to ratchet up his attacks on Trump whenever his beloved GOPe-ers deliver another victory to their dem allies.
Stand by for an Omnibus budget victory for the dems with McConnells/Romneys full support, followed by a DACA amnesty, lots more cash for Ukraine, even more funding for the deep state, billions more transferred to left wing interest groups, etc. And all will be wrapped up with a bow and a card that reads "To Our Democratical Friends, Love, Mitch".
There really is no limit to how much and how often McConnell can sell out the republican base while GOPe's mindless McConnell-tards minions spend their entire days and nights kvetching about Trump.
As mentioned previously, Trump has become the biggest GOPe backstabbing Get Out Of Jail Free Card in the history of politics.
McConnell, Schumer, Romney, Ryan et al truly must be laughing their arses off everyday as they hand victory after victory to the dems knowing Trump will be blamed or be the focus of that day's continuous outrage.
What a political dream come true for them.
Meade: "Let me know when he invites Bill Ayers, Al Sharpton and Anita Dunn to join him for a round of golf. I’ll join your Trump-hate pile on."
I second the sentiment. But it's also a form of whataboutism that doesn't work under prog rule. Different standards apply to Trump.
His deviance appeals to his supporters. It turns off everyone to their left. As culture war theater, it has appeal; as electoral maneuvering, it is self-defeating.
"According to the Jewish Virtual Library (https://www.jewishvirtuallibrary.org/jewish-voting-record-in-u-s-presidential-elections), after Trump was such an "extraordinary" friend to Israel that he received an award designating him the "best friend Israel ever had in the White House," Jews voted 68% for Biden. Maybe Klein should be asking questions of his own people rather than Trump."
Or maybe the 68% Jews who voted for Biden don't buy the claim Trump had been such an "extraordinary friend to Israel" or the "best friend Israel ever had in the White House." And maybe they have other criteria for voting someone into office other than just the candidate's policies re: Israel. (Or maybe they even have their own criticisms of Israel's USA-abetted policies.)
It's always a good look to be tricked by your supposed own side.

"Obama was anti-semetic, based on his policies as well as the people he chose to associate with - even WAPO agrees that it is 'correct to label the Obama administration as anti-Israel'" (https://www.washingtonpost.com/blogs/right-turn/wp/2016/01/20/why-its-correct-to-label-the-obama-administration-anti-israel/)."
So, do you assert any criticism of Israel is, by definition, "anti-Israel" and/or that such "anti-Israel" criticism or disagreement is by definition "anti-semitic?" Do you think the WAPO meant that Obama's supposed "anti-Israel" policies were, by definition, "anti-semitic," or are you simply playing rhetorical sleight-of hand? (That you conflate Ms. Rubin's personal opinion piece with WAPO at large, I suspect the latter.) Do you similarly think, as so many jingoists and other extremists do, that any criticisms of the USA's policies are, by definition "anti-USA" and thus "unAmerican?"
“I wanted to show Trump the kind of talent that he’s missing out on by allowing his terrible handlers to dictate who he can and can’t hang out with,” Yiannopoulos said.

Can we please go through everyone that Moral Paragon Joe Biden has met with without "denouncing"? Al Sharpton, the Squad etc.

Trump should be flattered Kanye asked him to be Kanye’s Vice President.

Trump shouldn't denounce anyone. When are people EVER going to learn? Apologizing doesn't work. Disavowing doesn't work.
Yes, the press is prone to conflation, judgment, labels, and braying ceaselessly without repercussions. We experienced an extreme dose of prejudice from JournoLists for over four years, Democrats impeaching through projection, ending with two unarmed women aborted in prone positions by Democrat "heroes", no less.
The D's wouldn't even attack Antifa when they were burning things and attacking people.

I've come to agree with someone else's observation that Not Giving A Fuck is Trump's superpower. It's also his biggest weakness.

Yep. The media protected how radical Saint Obama really is. He came into office planning on destroying American and he is almost there. We all know he is the puppet master behind the puppet in the White House, but the media is focused on Trump Making America Great Again. They love that America is going down. And Never Trumpers agree.

@rcocean, they do not work for Republicans. Worked just fine for Obama.
Trump did a lot of great things. Things no other President in decades had the courage to do. Most of all, he put America first, which to the left has somehow come to mean White Supremacy.
But Trump has always made too many simple, obvious forced errors. He does not know when to NOT speak. He does not know when to keep his thoughts private. And he does not know how to control his impulse to always be The Headline.

Wow that's some impressive misreading of my text. Nope. Not a smoker. Or an idiot, but I am useful here and there. Howard I expect more out of an Inland Empirean than that.
Never heard of this Fuentes guy until he was called to our attention. I remember a similar scenario about 10-12 years ago — we were all duty-bound to denounce someone named Orly Taitz, who was apparently beneath contempt as well, although no one on the Republican side had ever heard of her.
Tell me again about all the politicians and elite DC swamp dwellers flew on the Lolita Express, spending nights on Pedo Island, having sex with minors. Same with attending Parties in Epstein's homes in NYC and Miami. Then will talk about Nick? He is substantial because...help me out...because?
There are strange people dotting every population across this nation, and the world. But DC, with its denizens egos, inflated beyond recognition, has created a truly insane concentration of perverted sickos.

Some of us think that the level of enthusiasm in which "anti-American statements" are made and the absence of any statements to the contrary are significant. Us jingoists and extremists notice when nothing to the right of Lenin is ever said by you and your cronies.
It was metaphorical Mike just like your use of former smoker. I liked how you inadvertently equated being a Trumper as to being a smoker.
I haven't been a valley boy for 40 years but I'm definitely a masshole now
Congratulations to Kanye West for once again single-handedly convincing Democrats to finally give a shit about black anti-semitism!
So Ye Olde "Ye" went on Alex Jones today (with Boy Wonder Fuentes) to made the case for Hitler's good points. This whole thing is looking like a Kamikaze attack on Trump (admittedly, an analogy that breaks down when you recall Trump himself waving in the landing on his own deck).
Question: Who Nick Fuentes?
Most Common Response: Plays shortstop for the Phillies.
During the eight years Michelle and Barack dined with terrorist cop killers Bill Ayers and Bernardine Dohrn several nights a week, the third couple present were Mona and Rashid Khalidi. Rashid Khalidi is a notorious anti-semite: he and Obama were particularly close. The media helped suppress this relationship, even wormholing a speech Obama made honoring Khalidi, who now runs the anti-semitic Center for Palestine Studies at Columbia U.
Ayers and Dohrn have a long and proud open record of anti-Semitism. They traveled to meet with and receive money from international terrorists including PLO, Castro, and IRA operatives.
The Obamas were with Ayers and Dohrn during and after 9/11, when the NYT ran an op-ed by Ayers bragging that he wished he had bombed more Americans. They simultaneously let him lie that he never killed or tried to kill anyone. The Times also covered up Bernardine Dohrn's involvement in the Brinks murders. Dohrn stole the IDs used to rent the getaway trucks on the day her fellow BLA/Underground cell killed a security guard and two police. Obama doubtlessly knew this because while Dohrn was being held for those murders (she was never tried -- probably ratted on her co-defendants), Ayers tried to sleep with a young woman who would later become Obama's girlfriend.
So how could anyone expose their children and wife's elderly mother to known anti-semites, known killers, sex offenders (both Ayers and Dohrn), and anti-American terrorists, and do it for eight years, then lie about it repeatedly on two campaign trails? These are people who killed cops, maimed cops and government employees, tried (and happily failed) to murder a judge and his family, and hundreds of soldiers and their dates at Fort Dix, and both police and black and white customers at a diner in Detroit (Ayers did that aborted bombing). How could they practically live with them and the Khalidis for so long? Because they agreed with them. They wanted the Weathermen's vision of race war and violent revolution. And so did important media figures, U. Chicago law professors, U. Penn journalism professors, and scores of important intellectuals and politicians, David Remnick first among them. They all knew. They all agreed. That's the power of hatred of police and America and the anti-Semitism in our elite institutions. The Left is soaked in it and has been for decades.
The Times did run one article about Bernardine Dohrn after she got away with the Brinks murders and other crimes. It was in the lifestyle section and described her as a happy housewife and shared her recipe for jam.
That's how much the media hates us. That's how much Michelle and Barack have lied. That's how radical they are and how much trouble we're in. Trump owes nobody an apology. Obama and Michelle and all their useful idiots do.
West is a famous guy that has said nice things about Trump. That’s it. As Dr. Oz and Herschel Walker show, Trump thinks celebrity is a qualification in and of itself.
When you are famous, like Kanye former presidents just "let you do." How's it feel when Kayne and Milo grab you by the pussy there big guy?🤣

Morton Klein is a despicable scum whose beliefs have no place in the United States of America.
Claiming Trump is anti-semitic is just f****** ridiculous. Anyone touting it ( especially Mitch McConnell ) is a lunatic and should be shouted down.
"Tell me again about all the politicians and elite DC swamp dwellers flew on the Lolita Express, spending nights on Pedo Island, having sex with minors."
It was a CIA operation to keep certain Washingtonians in check. Don't cross us, because we have the goods on you. Epstein was an asset.
If Trump thinks ragingly insane, Hitler-loving Kanye West is the hill he wants to die on, who are we to question his judgment?
Oh goody, another thread in which Trumpist and anti Trumpist conservatives tear each other to shreds.
I'm not sure Obama had very deep convictions of any sort. He might just have been playing the game. Move left to win the primary, move back towards the center to win the election. He had a strong us/them sense. Republicans were always the enemy. He always had to play Black. But he was relatively contented with what he could get out of politics.
Trump was a good friend of Israel. Apparently, he did better with Jewish voters than most Republicans -- not as well as Reagan or Bush did in 1980 or 1988, and about as well as Reagan in 1984 or Romney in 2012, but better than Bush I in 1992, or Ford, or Dole, or Bush II or McCain. It was too much to be expected that he or any other Republican would come close to getting a majority of Jewish voters.
What I appreciated about Trump was that the Israel/Palestine question wasn't a constant topic of discussion during his administration, so we could at least take a break from that for a while and didn't get much bloviation from either side.
Sounds like you people are fired up about Moochelle in 24'. She only hates America, (so far), and said so. However that's entirely permissable.
You know Trump's innermost being so well, like you were right there.
He invited someone to dinner just stone him now.
Trump has a way of influencing people to steer right and drop diversity [dogma] e.g. racism, sexism, ageism) enhancements. Perhaps he had a positive influence. He did in North Korea with an assist from Rodman. He did in Saudi Arabia with an assist from his son-in-law. He did in Russia, too... because only a minority benefited from the Slavic Spring, not including Ukrainians east and west of Kiev. Even China seemed amenable to a deal.
Tell me again about all the politicians and elite DC swamp dwellers flew on the Lolita Express, spending nights on Pedo Island, having sex with minors.
Democrat favors are equivalent and inclusive without age discrimination under the protect marriage act, immigration reform, to keep women affordable and available and taxable, and "The Freedom of Access to Clinic Entrances Act" to sequester "burdens" of evidence. Women, second, and girls, and now boys, when they can get away with it. So much for the "sisterhood", women are not a diversity ("color") bloc. Social progress is a many splintered thing.
“Oh goody, another thread in which Trumpist and anti Trumpist conservatives tear each other to shreds.”

I don't think you understood Obama very well. Ideologically he was malleable sure.
But he was deeply motivated by hatred of the United States as founded and really any country that had freedom in general. His hatred of Israel was obvious.
He clearly believed he was better than the people he ruled and clearly saw his presidency as a moment in history where he could right historical wrongs and grievances that he holds deeply.
And his most powerful motivation was to attack people who disagreed with him in any way he could.
Obama was deeply convicted of his own moral and general superiority.

Neither of these sides are really conservative anymore.
The Never Trumpers claim to be "Severely Conservative" but everyone knows they are just corporatists hoping to get on the next NRO cruise.
Trump supporters are populists and working class for the most part. You will find a lot of support here for tariffs and anti-trust actions against the big corps.
You don't even understand the labels you use much less the people you apply them too.
“I have become very frightened for my people.” [Morton Klein said.] “Donald Trump is not an anti-Semite. He loves Israel. He loves Jews. But . . . he legitimizes Jew-hatred and Jew-haters.”
The simple truth is that Donald Trump loves only Donald Trump and that is the end of the story.
“Neither of these sides are really conservative anymore.”
Oh thank you Achilles for explaining who is and who isn’t really conservative. Now I have a much better understanding of all the the confused so called conservative commenters here.

No, you don't. Which is why you keep making the same rhetorical mistakes over and over again.
In other MAL news, the special master is history.
Whether or not you think Trump being treated unfairly in the Ye matter, 11th Circuit per curiam opinion makes clear they don't think he's being treated unfairly by DoJ in the documents investigation. With handcuffs on the government lifted and new special counsel, things should accelerate from here.
I think what this Mort guy is anxious about has to do with the huge increase in attacks on Jews ever since Trump became president and decided to make enemies out of anyone not deemed “native” enough or industries in which Jews were prominent. But that doesn’t bother right-wingers any more than attacks on Jews would have bothered Lindbergh or other “America FIrsters!” In the 1930s.
The right-wing does however appreciate that Jews have a political front in the form of Israel, just like the Nazis were content with Jews having no rights apart from what they assembled in the form of the Jewish councils (Judenrat) of the day - to do their bidding then just Israel does ours today.
Hpudding: learn more about Lindbergh. He used his reputation to tour Hitler's Air Force to report to FDR, then joined an international air force to effectively fight Hitler. Read more. He has been maligned.
And you risked anything when, Hasty Pudding? You elite assholes hosted actual Nazis.
And did nothing else since WWI. Losers.
hpudding: "I think what this Mort guy is anxious about has to do with the huge increase in attacks on Jews ever since Trump became president and decided to make enemies out of anyone not deemed “native” enough or industries in which Jews were prominent."
Are these fictional Trump fans attacks on Jews similar to the attack on Jussie Smollett?
As with attacks on Asians, its pretty clear just who is doing most of the attacking. Here's a link to a story about an attack on a Rabbi by, I guess, what hpudding would call a typical "MAGA" type:
https://www.cnn.com/2022/05/07/us/nyc-rabbi-attack-investigation/index.html
I have to be honest, I expected a more noticeable red hat and an American flag somewhere.
@hpudding, if there has been a rise in attacks on Jews over the past six years — and without documentation and hard facts from you or one of your buddies among the left wing loonie trolls I shall be skeptical — then I expect that analysis will show that the attacks on Jews are from their supposed allies in the Democrat coalition: inner city blacks and white Progressives taught to view the murderous Palestinian terrorists as honorable freedom fighters standing against those evil Zionists.
This essay by Michael Warren Davis in my inbox this morning was all I've read about this sorry business; addicts to nihilism, the lot of 'em. I hope Mr Trump hasn't caught Mr Biden's incipient senility.
