  1. Those journalists with a shred of Integrity left say there are no journalists with a shred of Integrity left.

  2. This can’t be the same HuffPo that screamed bloody murder over President Trump appointing his daughter Ivanka and her husband
    Jared Kushner to important U.S. government positions, can it? Surely one can surmise that these people are “close to him”.

  5. My post here is NOT to defend Huffpost, but just to give readers the source article from HP:
    https://www.huffingtonpost.ca/entry/president-trump-is-increasingly-isolated_n_5df3e703e4b047e8889d0c03?ri18n=true

    So reading the second headline under the main headline, Huffpost in fact does publish the utterly stupid statement, deservedly mocked.

    The actual text of the posted article (by one Molly Redden) is pure propagandistic dreck. All the writer does is quote hyper-pro-Democratic-Party voices, and simply adds her own anti-Trump dreck to these. But read the third paragraph in the article. She says, in the last phrase of the paragraph:

    …and a mind-bending reliance on sources close to Trump to describe how he has no one close to him.

    So, it appears that, in this paragraph, the author is trying, unsuccessfully, to be ironic, saying that here that anti-Trump media sources overly rely on unnamed sources. But the entire article then uses the standard hit-piece technique, done by all the anti-trump media, to use unnamed sources.

    My question is: why did Huffpost lift that phrase, and then use it as a second headline And then tween our the hilarious headline. I take it that the tweeter HuffPolitics is legit. Why would the HuffPost editors be so dumb.

    Googling the words Huffington Post yields stories about editorial cutbacks and layoffs. The posted article is a lazily-written hit-piece — with no hard facts used in it — seemingly written by a low-paid junior-staffer. But why would the HuffPost market the article in such a stupid way. A real eye-roller, this.

  6. While it is possible that Trump may not socialize all that much at the White House because it is stifling, I bet he gives her at Trump Tower or Mar a Lago. The guest list in his own residences isn’t public property. Billionaires aren’t lonely.

  7. “Billionaires aren’t lonely.”

    Understand that “socializing” is not synonymous with the word “close”, yes? Neither is “alone” the antonym of “close” as used above.
    Close as used above by HuffPo means “intimate”, the antonym would be “casual”. Socializing means casual, not close.

  12. Read the tweet and consider.

    Those close to the president …… say he has no one close to him.

    Can you see the wisdom in it?

    Only a “journalist” would come up with a beginning like that and in the very next part of the sentence contradict the first part.

    Perhaps beginning of mental state on downslide or perhaps they teach them these gymnastics in “journalist” school.

  14. No one is close to Rachel Madcow due to her “rhetorical hyperbole”.

    Fake ‘journalist’ is likely surrounded by fake people who blow sunshine up her arse.

  16. I did hear it said of Ronald Reagan. People would be seeking to get into the “inner circle” of power around Reagan, and there was just him. At the start of his presidency he declared in a cabinet meeting that he would listen to the advice of others, then HE would make the decisions. I believe that was in Dinesh D’Souza’s biography of Reagan.
