As amusing as Muir treating these delusional softballs as "the real journalism that people should be doing" this is all the fairly typical phenomena of a person who has found themselves doubting their faith attempting to double down on it to make the questions go away.
It rarely works.
It will never stop being darkly hilarious.
ReplyDeletePeople like Muir and his readers by turns thoughtfully stroking their chins in deep contemplation and debate over the nuanced, layered complexities of Trump's strategic maneuvering, and/or snidely nodding their heads at the unfolding of events that supposedly happen exactly along the lines they predicted, with Muir —as mentioned — constantly putting into Trump’s mouth all these oblique, insidery words…..
…while the real Donald Trump would just read two paragraphs of this stuff and snicker “What the hell are these guys talking about? You tell me, I dunno.”
Oh, yes. I think the big part is Muir and the Peanut Gallery are a different sort of idiot than Trump. He's what I like to call an imbecile. Imbeciles just don't think about things as a rule. Some of them can fake erudition, but that's it and honestly, that's what those guys imagine thinking about things is, tossing out the big words and the references.
DeleteMuir and the Peanut Gallery are what I like to call morons. They do think about stuff, but... well, they aren't any good at it. They skip steps, they avoid any real self-examination, and it all makes them prone to these elaborate conspiracy theories filled with circular reasoning. And again, they really think this all proof of how tremendously clever they are.
