I’ve been brutal about Donald Trump’s debates; the repetitious mantras, especially (all while he does much better and provides more meat in townhalls). But last night, at the CNN-Telemundo Republican debate in Houston, Trump did quite well. Quick repartee is important. And The Donald had the quick quips coming.
Not according to the transparent wish-fulfillment media, which saw only what they wanted to see. Hence the headlines:
“Donald Trump’s Terrible Night at the Republican Debate in …”
“Luntz [aka Kelly File] Focus Group: Rubio Wins But Trump Dominates the …”
“GOP Debate: Rubio Trashes Trump for Repeating Scripted Talking Points.”
“Marco Rubio Does a Withering Takedown of Donald Trump” is a headline on the NYT, article inaccessible.
The Guardian, a British rag, messed with the truth (lied): “Trump has built a populist movement of discontented blue collar,” it claimed.
In reality, Trump’s demographics are all-encompassing.
