Communists. They’re All Communists.
The Wall Street Journal’s editorial page, where Democrat is a naughty word, is going after Trump’s economic policy.
“Economic expansions don’t end on their own,” the paper’s editorial board wrote. “They almost always end due to policy mistakes. Mr. Trump’s willy-nilly trade offensive could be the mistake that turns a slowdown into the Navarro recession.”
So White House economic adviser Peter Navarro shows up on Fox News pretty damn peeved. He tells Maria Bartiromo that “The Wall Street Journal is a like a Chinese Communist Party newspaper.”
Of course they are because anybody who doesn’t agree with you is a Communist.
Thanks to SGray for the heads up.
Ignorant Republican. The party’s calling everything they don’t like Socialism these days. The Communist Russians are now friends because the manipulate elections for you. Get your defamations straight. Geez, don’t these guys have meetings?
1In the 1970’s classic Illuminati trilogy, they used “fnord” as a word everyone had been conditioned to fear and hate – but people also couldn’t see the word. Newspapers added “fnord” to any items the hidden world rulers wanted people to get angry about. (I remember thinking at the time that a world filled with conspiracy theory piled upon conspiracy theory was funny – rather than prophetic.)
Republicans are using “communism” and “socialism” the way the fictional word fnord was used. However, I don’t think these words have the power they once had – except for some Baby Boomers.
2Navarro says “The Wall Street Journal is a like a Chinese Communist Party newspaper.”
Did I miss it? When did Rupert Murdoch buy a Communist Chinese newspaper? I hope it’s a tabloid.
3I don’t recall any recession ever being named after an economic advisor. They’re always labeled with the administration in office when they occur. So the WSJ is pussyfootin’ around the fact that we’re on the brink of the Trump Recession.
So much Winning.
4Can’t believe Peter Navarro is so far to the right that the WSJ looks like a Chinese communist propaganda rag to him. Hell, if he keeps going right, even the JBS and the KKK will be left-wing!
5Navarro??? Best laugh of the day!
6All the best people. Dumpster Donnie, CA sends you thoughts, prayers and vacuum cleaners to put out the flames of your maladministration. Jerry Nadler taking Don McGahn to court after Labor Day. In his second salvo across the WH lawn, Jerry Nadler has also requested Boofie Kavanaugh’s e-mails.
7When a politician talks about commie russia you know they are talking to their ignorant base. As there is NOTHING communist about russia or china…they are just like the USA…1%-ers richer than anyone else and throwing their power around and keeping the lower classes(in their eyes) down and working to get them richer.
8@Jane & PKM #7:
I’d say Dumpsterfire Donnie, except it would be contained. So how about Dumpfire Donnie. Started on garbage, spewed smoke and stench, but ultimately risks burning down the community…
9“Do svidaniya” (‘duh-svee-dah-nya’) is Russian for goodbye. Perhaps we can start saying “Do svi Donnie” to any Russian trolls that appear…
