Trump's Big CON: His FAKE American Values

"As the nation was preparing to celebrate its storied independence from the British crown, the president secured his place as history’s greatest jester.

Or America’s first toddler president. Take your pick.

Trump did so by tweeting a doctored video clip of himself from several years ago in which he takes down wrestling magnate Vince McMahon and gives him a good pummeling. The new version superimposes the CNN logo on McMahon’s head. Get it? In the 28-second clip, Trump walks away from the fray unrumpled with nary a hair out of place."

Read the Washington Post, Bizarre. Absurd. Ridiculous. Embarrassing. Trump., which asked:

"To Trump supporters who find the wrestling video unobjectionable or, I suspect, hilarious in some cases, I would ask that they try to imagine the same video showing Barack Obama superimposing Fox News on someone’s face, punching him repeatedly and then smugly strutting away.

Very likely these same folks would have stormed the Mall demanding the president’s impeachment."

How patriotic (NOT), The Donald encouraging violence against the media!

Of course, he cares not a whit about the important role the media played in American independence:

"Newspapers were strongholds of patriotism . . . , and printed many pamphlets, announcements, patriotic letters and pronouncements."

The Donald is much more like King George, who sought to control and limit criticism of his rule. The Donald tries to bully, King George tried to tax.
