The same White House but two very different presidents. It’s 2010 and Barack Obama is into the second year of his first term. The economy is in a shambles. Voters have just swept Democrats out of power in a historic House turnover that hasn’t been seen in two generations. The world is more dangerous. The deficit is exploding. The enemies of America are on the march all across the globe. And what do White House reporters do when Mr. Obama steps up to the podium? THEY CHEER HIM A HELLO GREETING. They smile, gush, and wink at each other.
It’s a completely different mindset from what is going on now with President Trump. The media is now in a 24/7 attack mode cycle, determined to do all they can to disrupt and possibly even destroy the Trump White House. Day after day it’s like this. Reporters like CNN’s Jim Acosta, who soft-gloved the Obama White House for eight years, now shout, talk out of turn, and go so far as shoving female White House interns. It’s all propaganda all the time.
Now contrast that with a White House press conference this week where a PBS reporter actually stands up and makes a statement posing as a question in which she declares President Trump as being a racist. This, after eight years of Establishment Media ignoring Barack Obama’s Black Nationalist past via his 20-year relation with a Chicago activist church led by a Black Power pastor who declared the United States and Israel as evil after the September 11th, 2001 terror attacks.
These reporters cheer Obama and throw vile accusations at President Trump.
That isn’t journalism. That is one-sided activism, self-promotion, and a disrespectful disgrace.
it is now clear that the Democrats' campaign to destroy him will go down as a massive blunder.
It failed to keep Kavanaugh off the court.
It cost Democrats their chance to regain control of the Senate.
And it gave Republicans an expanded Senate majority that will allow them to confirm an even more conservative justice next time around.

At every stage of recent Supreme Court fights, Democrats have miscalculated. Their mindless decision to filibuster Neil Gorsuch paved the way for Senate Republicans to get rid of the filibuster for Supreme Court nominees -- which made it possible to confirm Kavanaugh by simple majority. And if Barrett ever makes it onto the Supreme Court, Democrats can thank their horrific, defamatory treatment Kavanaugh.
The lesson for Democrats should be clear: Character assassination does not pay. Quite the opposite, it backfired -- big-time.

Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, the youngest woman elected to Congress in the midterm elections, is struggling to pay rent, according to a recent interview.
Ocasio-Cortez, 29, told The New York Times she's not sure how she will be able to afford an apartment in Washington, D.C., without a salary for three months in an interview published online Wednesday.
She told the Times she has some savings from her job earlier this year as a bartender at a Union Square restaurant, and she's hoping that will hold her over. Living without a paycheck is something she said her and her partner tried to plan for, but it's a hardship that's still "very real."
She is pointless, powerless and a joke
Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez: I can't afford my Washington, D.C. apartment
They fired off a few strongly worded letters.
House Democrats barely had a chance to celebrate the new majority they won on Tuesday before Donald Trump confronted them with their first test. Hours after warning Democrats of retaliation if they harassed him with congressional investigations, the president ousted Attorney General Jeff Sessions and replaced him with a loyalist who had criticized the probe that has placed Trump in legal jeopardy.
And so, a day after voters elected them to serve as a check on the Republican president, Democrats responded swiftly by marshaling the full force of their power: They fired off a few strongly worded letters.
Yet writing letters and making requests is about all the Democrats can do right now. As a practical matter, they won’t actually hold the House majority until January. At that point, they could back up their demands with the authority to subpoena records and testimony from officials at the White House or the Department of Justice. But even then, it’s unclear whether Democrats would be able to force the president’s hand or ensure that Mueller’s investigation—if it doesn’t conclude in the next two months—could proceed unimpeded.
The touch is a non-story
Him consistently being a rude interrupting dick is unprofessional and deserving of the boot.
“Like Home Alone, fuck the Skull & Bones,” Cube raps. “Arrest the president, you got the evidence/That n***a is Russian intelligence/When it rains it pours/Did you know the new white was orange? Boy, you’re showing your horns,” he spits.
He continues: “For the record, you’re affected Who you elected is so septic / So full of s**t, I can’t accept it.”
