The dismal lamestream media is doubling down on its post-election Trump attacks.  In their gratuitous splurge of hit pieces, thinly disguised as news, they are driving the divisive wedge ever deeper and continuing the class warfare program started by Obama – to be sure, they are not like us.  The good news for him and his is that there will be at least one part of his legacy under which the country will continue to suffer.

NPR, AP, et al continue their hit pieces at every opportunity.  This morning’s online edition of AP’s “Top News” was peppered with stories about Trump’s alleged difficulties in selecting his cabinet and senior advisers, protests, vituperative testimonials, … .

Last night VP-elect Pence was treated to a public accusation and lecture on Broadway where he went to see ‘Hamilton’ and then was verbally assaulted from the stage by the cast after curtain calls (here).  The NYT plumbed new depths in yellow journalism hours after offering a mea culpa statement to clean up its scurrilous behavior and start acting more professionally again – stark admittance of what everyone already knew about their publication during the campaign season.

Today every leftwing academic, media, and entertainment personality is trying to outdo each other in the invective they hurl at America’s next president and his assembling team (more here and here).  It is their new raison d’etre now that their public policies have been rejected and are soon to be replaced under the new administration.  In spite of it all, the progressive elites are vowing to double down on their mistakes when next they gain the levers of power.   On these talking head shows what I’m waiting for is some moderator with balls to ask their discontented guest, ‘BTW, shouldn’t you be in Canada by now?’
