CAT Tracks for January 12, 2017
AMERICA'S WANNABE EMPEROR


CAT Tracks Editor's Note:

I truly want to stop blogging about Donald Trump, still hope to do so...

...maybe when he quits using Twitter.

Oh well.


I mean...

...this is truly a case of the proverbial train wreck:


Donald Trump is big on Second Amendment rights...

...not so much on First Amendment rights:


From the Columbia Journalism Review

Trump berated a CNN reporter, and fellow journalists missed an opportunity


That exchange proved even too much for Fox News host Shep Smith...

...who has assuredly cemented a place on The Donald's sh*t list:

As for The New York Times...

...well, they're surely #1 on Trump's print media hit list...

...having already had their "banning" experience, a concession sit-down with The Candidate, but then a series a scathing editorials in the aftermath of his election.

Nuthin' to lose...


From The New York Times

Donald Trump’s News Session Starts War With and Within Media


And, in conclusion, it's time to dust off that old tale by Hans Christian Andersen, an ode to the man whom Republicans hail as America's New King:

The Emperor's New Clothes


I mean...

...as long as Trump's inner circle, led by Kellyanne Conway, keep stroking his already huge ego and telling him that his critics simply don't understand him (or are out the get him), why should he listen to We, the (Unusually Stupid) People?
