What is the former dumbest man on cable news up to?
Juan Williams churned out this lazy op-ed that reads like a million others. This dead horse was beaten to death, resurrected in a mad scientist’s lab, and then beaten to death again for four years. But the media likes its narratives and its pays hack to regurgitate them.
And so, “GOP Extremism is Poisoning the Nation” exists. And Juan Williams allegedly wrote it.
What are some of Juan’s examples of GOP extremism poisoning the nation?
More and more fights breaking out on airplanes. Why? The short answer is that wearing masks to protect against COVID-19 remains a politically divisive statement.
Nine killed by gunfire in another mass shooting.
Hateful attacks on Jews and Asians rising.
Masks remain politically divisive, but they’re also socially divisive. The woman who knocked out a flight attendant’s teeth on Southwest is named Vyvianna Quinonez. It’s dangerous to make assumptions based on names, but I suspect that if her timeline was full of MAGA content, we’d never stop hearing about it from the media.
The mass shooting had nothing to do with President Trump or Republicans and was carried out by an employee who had plotted it before Trump even came into office because he hated his job.
Hating your workplace. That’s apolitical. Right?
And, finally, the attacks on Jews and Asians are being carried out by, respectively, Arab Muslims and black men, the Democrat base.
But the former dumbest man on cable news somehow tries tying this to the GOP.
And why do 57 percent of Republicans think of Democrats, their fellow Americans, as their “enemies,” according to a February CBS/YouGov poll?
This is embarrassing.
It’s bad for the Hill which published this garbage without fact-checking it.
Because that sentence could just as easily have been written as…
And why do 53 percent of Democrats think of Republicans, their fellow Americans, as their “enemies,” according to a February CBS/YouGov poll?
By the way, Independents are most likely to think of “Other people in America, and domestic enemies” as the biggest threat.
In other words, people seek the company of people like themselves in terms of economic class, race, and political ideology.
And they turn against people outside their club, blaming them for their problems.
Like the way Juan Williams does.
This is what happens when you refuse to look in a mirror and then the mirror has to come looking for you.
