CAL THOMAS COMMENTARY MAY 28, 2020
THE NEW YORK POST MOSTLY SUPPORTS PRESIDENT TRUMP AND HIS POLICIES, BUT YESTERDAY ITS EDITORIAL BOARD SAID THIS ABOUT THE PRESIDENT’S TWEET AND PUBLIC COMMENT CLAIMING MSNBC’S JOE SCARBOROUGH MAY HAVE MURDERED A FEMALE AIDE IN 2001 AND THE POGNANT REACTION BY THE WOMAN’S HUSBAND:
“BACKLASH ACROSS THE SPECTRUM ABOUT DONALD TRUMP TWEETING BASELESS CONSPIRACY THEORIES AGAINST SCARBOROUGH DID NOTHING TO DISSUADE HIM. WE SUPPOSE THERE ARE SOME TRUMP FOLLOWERS WHO ENJOY THIS. THE LIBS SAY HORRIBLE THINGS ABOUT YOU, GO AHEAD AND SAY TERRIBLE THINGS ABOUT THEM! THERE IS A DIFFERENCE, THOUGH, BETWEEN MOCKING SOMEONE’S RATINGS AND HURTING AN INNOCENT FAMILY WITH THE MEMORIES OF THEIR DAUGHTER BECAUSE OF A PETTY FEUD…
“BUT IS THIS REALLY THE PRESIDENT YOU WANT TO BE, SIR? THE PRESIDENT FOR WHOM PEOPLE DISREGARD HALF OR EVEN MOST OF WHAT YOU SAY AS IRRELEVANT? TUESDAY WAS A GOOD DAY – THE ECONOMY SHOWED SIGNS OF LIFE, LOCKDOWNS WERE ENDING. YOU GAVE THE PRESS SOMETHING ELSE TO TALK ABOUT, AND TRUST US, YOU DID NOT LOOK LIKE THE BIGGER MAN. YOU MIGHT BE MAKING YOUR ENEMIES ANGRY, BUT YOU’RE MAKING ALLIES TUNE OUT. THERE’S SOMETHING WORSE THAN BEING HATED. IT’S BEING IGNORED.”
THE NEW YORK POST EDITORIAL. I’M CAL THOMAS.
