Democratic Party Elite out of touch, living in insulated bubble-land.

"Want to understand the bubble in which the elite, liberal media lives? Check out the banner headline of today’s New York Times: “Democrats, Students and Foreign Allies Face the Reality of a Trump Presidency.”

On today’s Morning Joe, Mark Halperin nailed it: “Look at the headline of this story. This is the day after a surprising underdog sweeping victory and their headline is not “disaffected Americans have a champion going to the White House” or “the country votes for fundamental change.” The headline is about how disappointed the friends of the people who run the New York Times are about what’s happened.

Scarborough also reported that Halperin and Nate Silver had been savaged by leading-but-unnamed MSM reporters and major news anchors for asserting—not that Trump would win—but that he even had a chance to win.

MARK HALPERIN: Look at the headline of this story. Look at the headline of this story. This is the day after a surprising underdog sweeping victory and their headline is not “disaffected Americans have a champion going to the White House” or “the country votes for fundamental change.” The headline is about how disappointed the friends of the people who run the New York Times are about what’s happened. It’s amazing. It’s amazing to me that this is the headline of the New York Times.

JOE SCARBOROUGH: Look at this. Look at this. This is staggering. It really is, Mark. I’m glad you brought this up.

HALPERIN: It’s The Onion.

JOE: This shows that the editors of the New York Times–I have the greatest respect for. They don’t get it.

MIKA BRZEZINSKI: This is about them!

JOE: This is a Saturday Night Live skit. You went to a cocktail party the night before and you decided to write this.

HALPERIN: When I thought Trump had a chance to lose, which I did. But I thought he had a chance to win it. I said to liberals, he’s going to get 42 million votes. 42 million people are going to vote for him. What are they voting for? And that this is their headline.

MIKA: That’s their newsroom [Ed.: i.e., not the editorial page, but the supposedly objective news side of the paper.]

HALPERIN: If a Democratic candidate who was said to have a 10% of winning by the New York Times had ended up winning and winning red states as Trump won blue states, I don’t think that would have been the headline.

JOE: No.

HALPERIN: And I’ll just say again, the responsibility of journalists is to not report on their biases. It’s to go out and understand the country through the prism of the election and say why are people feeling the way they’re feeling? I am just stunned at how people are reacting."

The real story they are projecting is that the NY Times' once-invincible death-ray of shouting RACISM! MISOGYNY! ISLAMOPOBIA! over and over simply did not work this time.

Not only did their death-ray fail, it seemed to make Trump even stronger because so many people were so sick it.

The only NYT ever did was Normalize Obama so American voters wouldn't believe that he was an American hating Kenyan.

Ranina posted this elsewhere. It's simply awesome.

It's Maureen Dowd's link to her brother's (Kevin, a true conservative, not a neocon) article about the election, and it's epic:

http://www.nytimes.com/2016/11/26/opinion/sunday/election-therapy-from-my-basket-of-deplorables.html?ref=opinion&_r=0


Her game of thrones over, Cersei — as Kevin Dowd nicknamed Hillary Clinton — stood guard over the Dowd family Thanksgiving.

Well, here is what Kevin, an affluent, educated suburbanite, has to say in his column, titled an “Election Therapy Guide for Liberals”:


Something for some members of the Dowd family to celebrate their candidate’s victory, and at least one to drown her sorrows.

What is he talking about?

Trump received a total popular vote count of 62,409,389.

How come the NY Times does not mention the Reality our enemies will face?

7   HEY YOU   2016 Nov 27, 9:21am  

Republicans=The Party of Idiots.
How come Retarded Republican Trump voters don't realize the reality of Trump
running his mouth at other nuclear armed countries?
I'm waiting to see the Rep/Con/Tea/Neo-Nazi's tripping & falling when they think
that their feet don't touch the ground. Could be a long fall.
