Hitting Below the Belt...

Not content to surrender their journolism cards* to the biased political reporting this political season, the NYT went out of its way to hire an African writer to develop a short story based on ... MRS. Trump.

Chimamanda Ngozi Adichie’s interest began with Ivanka Trump, who “seems to me too thoughtful and too intelligent to truly believe that her father’s erratic, ungrounded policy positions would genuinely be good for the United States. And so I imagined her as a kind of unknowable character, and I needed a foil of sorts for her, which is how Melania Trump became the center of the story.”

“Fiction can remind us — and because of the blood-sport nature of politics, we constantly need reminding — that the players in politics are first human beings,” Adichie said.

Why can't you leave the private political players alone, and concentrate on those who put themselves in the spotlight based on the issues that need addressing?  This really is hitting below the belt -- going after somebody's wife.

Turns out, Ted Cruz had nothing on the folks at the New York Times, afterall.  Who will they target next?
--------------------------

I think the journolists who are behind-the-scenes hoping to elect Mrs. Clinton are afraid to discuss the current issues:  American foreign policy, the growing inequality between the do-ers and the takers/taxers, the future of the country, economics, politics, and race.  Much much easier to pay off an unknown to take on somebody's immigrant wife.

Never Forget:  The elites know best...
and they'll go to their graves thinking that.
(Y'all come back now, y'hear?)

* I hope Trump pulls all the press passes today associated with the New York Times political coverage.  Get 'em off the bus already.  Why feed the hand that bites you and yours?
