When will serious journalists stop their idolization? Of course idols exist both as positive and negative references.
Those who positively idolize Trump think he can do no wrong (or his errors are someone else's fault, something else's fault).
Those who negatively idolize Trump think everything he does is nefarious and evil.
I am no fan of Trump. I wish he would just go away. I think sane people will actually get rid of him (impeachment, pressurized resignation, etc.). But I don't think he is all that he's made out to be. He somehow got into the limelight (of course he sought it and the presidency may have been a longer plan than the two or three years prior to his election) and people bought it. They made him president, partly because of that modern ailment of idolization, magnified even more because we have lost touch with our true God.
I think think this very likely what will happen. His presence will rejuvenate a new conservative movement, quietly, in the sidelines. Waiting for the right moment. There are many good intelligent responsible people, more alert and wiser.
So here is seasoned and mature journalist Diana West saying this, as a restrained idolater (she has to be, there are too many opinionated people reading her posts):
The Time magazine Trump Jr. cover prompts, however, are very different because there is to date scant more to the entire "red handed scandal hitting home" story. Sure, there are details to be noted (and a whole nest of anti-Trump Russian operatives to explore that Time won’t want to), but these elliptical cover lines go no further than the Trump family smear they recklessly, maliciously create.Yes the Trump offspring who was caught red-handed conniving with the enemy!
This has been the approach of all "conservative" media, who would rather support their idol, even if some are lukewarm about it.
Are those the only options? Trump or Hillary (or Hillary's stooges, or more precisely her further left field enemies)?
Is that what sophisticated thinkers have come to - this or that and nothing else, or else?
Fascinating.
