[U: Hinderaker Now In Tank, For “Truth Is… Lie”] There Is Only One Sentence Paul Needed To Write Here. Who Knows If He Wrote It?!

Updated: Hinderaker goes “full metal Orwell jacket”. Defends the Naked Emperor. Yawn. End update.

Honestly, I don’t much care. But Paul decided to put the pearls of supposed wisdom that bounce off his keyboard… behind his paywall at Substack. No thanks.

His topic? The Orwellian firing of a non-partisan government economic data collator with whom Tangerine 2.0 disagrees. But… the facts are beyond dispute. Trump is killing the US economy with his tariffs. So he promptly shoots the messenger.

All Mirengoff [and now, Hinderaker] need say is “Trump is an evil, small-minded, decrepit man with a vast inferiority complex — I repudiate everything about him.”

I can guarantee that neither John or Paul wrote nothing like that. Y A W N.

Here’s the part that is visible. And it is not worth much, but it looks like it will head in a sensible direction — even if in a cowardly fashion:

…On Friday, the Bureau of Labor Statistics issued its monthly jobs report. It found that the U.S. economy added only 73,000 jobs in July. It also revised the May and June numbers downward by more than 200,000 jobs.

President Trump’s response to the bad news was swift. He fired BLS commissioner, Erika McEntarfer, on the day the report was issued.

The firing of McEntarfer was been sharply criticized by economists, and not just liberal ones….

All I can say… is in the decades it will now take to undo the damage to confidence in public institutions Trump has engendered, the Powerline boys, and the Ringside boys… better beg forgiveness of all real patriots, everyday — for those decades.

All else is just… the sturm and drang. It signifies… nothing.

Out.
