Is this real life? Dana Loesch translates Josh Earnest's unbelievable description of war against ISIS

This morning, Obama Press Secretary Josh Earnest was asked about bombings in NYC and NJ, and the stabbing attack in St. Cloud, Minnesota. Make sure you’re not taking a drink while reading his response:

Oy vey: Josh Earnest (CNN): "We are in a fight with ISIS — a narrative fight."

Earnest: “In some ways this is actually just a war of narratives so we want to make sure that we get out our counter-narrative against ISIL"

And everybody who’s followed this White House for the past several years knows what that means:

RELEASE THE HASHTAGS https://t.co/MOHbFP4RIo

Bingo!

To the left, everything is a "messaging problem."

@HotlineJosh This is, in just a few words, why we are less safe, unable to win a winnable fight and proof this WH is gutless.

@HotlineJosh the bombings are just a metaphor.

I deplore this reckless escalation.

The Strategic Hashtag Reserve should only be used in time of war. https://t.co/Eh2eNNSdKG

Ain’t that the truth.
