That's no surprise, Bob Woodward has a long history in journalism.

How do you figure that? How many books, newspaper/magazine articles have you written since 1974?

This is of course Fascism 101, the enemy has to be omnipresent and powerful - this is why you need a strong man in charge and why dissent is traitorous. But the enemy is also weak, effete, and bears within him the faiblesse that will lead to the strong man being victorious. Keeps the followers on a constant emotional see-saw between feeling victorious and victimized. It's a very old recipe, and it works.
You're making us all think...…...stop that!

Holy moly, you didn't just link 'being confused' with the 'need to retire'...….as a Trump fan no less?

Remember all those years that Nixon's apologists told us Deep Throat did not exist? Good times, good times.

Is Paul Begala even still around? Haven't heard of him in years. Which of the corrupt anti-Trump networks is he on these days?

I lived only a few miles down the highway from Mark Felt. You just never know about your neighbors.

Default Trump calls for tougher Libel laws

Oh the irony.

I guess he has forgotten about the birth certificate fiasco, calling Hillary a criminal and should be in jail, and the name calling towards his opponents.
