Liberal News Outlet Salon Has No Fight Left, Admits Trump will Defeat Hillary
Once you manage to muck your way through the pretentious and progressive gobbly gook that Salon burps up as “journalism,” you suddenly start to see the resolve setting in – Hillary doesn’t stand a chance against Trump.
However, truth doesn’t come easily to most and many who aren’t close to being there will never arrive.
Yeah, I’m looking at you, NeverTrump.
The first step in the acceptance process is ignoring the absurd media blustering and the narrative that Trump needs a miracle to win against a haggard establishment politician shrouded in scandal, who is married to a man accused of rape, sexual assault, and who pal’s around with a convicted sex offender.
Yeah, that’s a tough mountain to climb.
Liberals, even those who won’t publicly admit it, know they’re in for a brutal beating this November. That reality aside, I’m rather shocked that the editors at Salon gave this headline a “thumbs up” since it reads like a doomsday prophecy to liberals everywhere.
Maybe it’s a wake-up call? A terrifying call-to-action?
Dammit, you idiots, love Hillary, or else…..
Regardless of the intent, it’s not just a headline cloaked in fear or anxiety. It’s the truth.
From the article:
Everything about Clinton—and this becomes all the more marked when she takes on the (false) mantle of speaking for the underclass, with whom she bears no mental or physical resemblance—reeks of the easy mobility of the global rentier class. Their efficacy cannot be accounted for, not through the kind of democratic process that is unfolding before our eyes as a remnant of the American founding imagination, her whole sphere of movement is pure abstraction.
In this election, abstraction will clearly lose, and corporeality, even if—or particularly if—gross and vulgar and rising from the repressed, will undoubtedly win. A business tycoon who vigorously inserted himself in the imaginations of the dispossessed as the foremost exponent of birtherism surely cannot be entirely beholden to the polite elites, can he? Trump is capital, but he is not capital, he is of us but also not of us in the way that the working class desires elevation from their rootedness, still strongly identified with place and time, not outside it. After all, he posed the elemental question, Where were you born?
The author of this article prattles on endlessly – weaving his (or her) journalistic web of pretentious ironies and declaring his (or her) academia-esq dismay at those “bumpkin-peasants” who’ve taken over the wheel and are driving the (racist, bigoted, misogynistic, etc.) country straight off a cliff.
My summation of his (or her) 10-thousand-word soliloquy?
Two words: President Trump.
