She saw Trump coming in 2016 better than anyone. What does Salena Zito see for 2024?
"... a claim that drove fact-checkers crazy — Zito positioned it this way: “When he makes claims like this, the press takes him literally, but not seriously; his supporters take him seriously, but not literally.”
Bless po's heart.
She did a Facebook post a few days ago suggesting that we should be blaming Mr Tangerine Man for a surcharge she paid at a restaurant because her item contained eggs... and I pointed out that Trump's Secretary of Agriculture hasn't even been approved by the Senate. And,...
...one of her other Facebook friends engaged me in what began as a serious dialog.
It's ending up with the guy quoting dictionary definitions to me...
... JUST LIKE isle DOES. In fact, I looked him up to see if he was isle in real life. He ain't.
So, he, and po, and isle, and Donna and, surprisingly, Indy and Curt... and, most Dem members of Congress... and Curt's Holy Trinity and po's metaphorical and literal Rachel are going insane...
... get this: MORE OVER WHAT TRUMP'S SAYING THAN WHAT HE'S DOING.
I love journalism. Not MSNBC nor CNN nor Fox preaching. I first encountered Salena Zito in 016, before the election. She's bang on about Trump.
He's President because, believe it or not, MAGAs are smart enough to get Trump. It's po and you lot who are too stoopid to understand.
My wife and I are sitting on our South Carolina couch, watching the first hour of FOX AND FRIENDS. They're "reporting" about Trump's Gaza scheme... that he's TALKING about.
And, this is what we're agreeing about:
TRUMP IS PLAYING CHESS.
They showed a reel of Dem members of Congress and the people of the metaphorical Rachel screaming about this and that, including the Gaza ridiculousness.
po, Donna, Indy, Curt, isle: The Gaza thing? It won't happen. Chill.
Smarten up!
Trust the wisdom of Salena Zito:
“When he makes claims like this, the press takes him literally, but not seriously; his supporters take him seriously, but not literally.”
He's playing chess. You're playing checkers.

A confession. pb was stoopid enuff last week to believe your SwampMedia claims that Trump would impose tariffs on Canada and gas prices would jump up 70c a gallon. So, I drove off to Wal-Mart to top off my tank.
For just that moment, I joined you. I believed the lies you believe.
I played checkers.
Bad on me.
