The Washinton Post is in full blame-Trump mode for the shooting at a Pittsburgh synagogue Saturday that left 11 dead.
Straight-up OWNED: Mollie Hemingway DRAGS WashPost for their infuriating front page (hint, blame Trump!) https://t.co/nhyzrk6Aeh

It wasn’t just the front page, though.
An editorial was published in the publication with the headline “critics say Trump has fostered the toxic environment for the political violence he denounces.”
Ari Fleischer took the piece apart.
This story is infuriating. And so off-base.
Opposition to the caravan, it says, is stoked by fear. To me, it’s about the rule of law and people taking advantage of our country.

2/ The story implies that criticism of Soros is anti-Semetic. But when Ds criticize David Koch or Sheldon Adelson for the money they give, that’s perfectly appropriate.
What a double standard.

3/ The story says R criticism in NY of a Congressional candidate who used to be a rapper is racist. Who cares what race is is?
The words he wrote were anti-police and anti-women. But to the press, because of his race, he gets shielded from criticism. His message is off-limits.

4/ The point of the story is that Trump is the reason people do or say bad things and that Trump and Rs promote or incite racism.
I picked up the paper this morning hoping to learn something. Nstead, I learned stories like this are part of the problem.

Sadly, the Washington Post and New York Times have long since ceased being informative about anything.
They have become extensions of the Democratic Party, seeking to take down President Trump at every turn.
