NY Times Fears Trump Will Ruin ‘Culture’ of Washington

In an article for Sunday’s New York Times that bordered on parody, reporter Jason Horowitz touted concerns from Washington D.C. liberals that the incoming Trump administration would sap the nation’s capital of its culture: “What the effect on Washington will be when Donald J. Trump moves into the White House is hard to predict. But many Washingtonians fear the worst.”

No surprise, the leading critic was former Democratic D.C. mayor Vincent Gray, who warned: “I’m worried about people not wanting to come here because of the image they have of the Trump administration.” Horowitz added: “Mr. Gray said he worried that a Trump administration could set the city back because the federal government still controls its purse strings and could enact abortion restrictions, cut vital investment and relax gun control laws.”

Yes Trump, the casino magnate, 3 thrice married, nude model wife, and softcore porn and wrestling playboy just reeks of puritanism doesn't he?

That's kind of the point, son.  We (the American people) don't want your cohort going to DC because they're attracted to the current culture there.
My political philosophy:

1) I'm not bothering anybody.
2) It's none of your business.
3) Leave me alone!

I think they meant either status quo or easy access for the NY Slimes, rather than culture.

The depth of stupidity in Liberal circles has no bottom. As soon as you think they can't get anymore stupid, they surprise you and go one level deeper.


After all that has happened. After the election of Trump and the total repudiation of the MSM, these guys still do not have a clue what happened. They still don't get it. Amazing.


I wonder what it is like to think like a Liberal, and to live in a world full of puppies, rainbows, and unicorns, where everything is Great all the time. That is, until you disagree with them, then they pull out knives and want to kill you. Liberals really are mentally disturbed people.
You cannot "COEXIST" with people who want to kill you.
If they kill their own with no conscience, there is nothing to stop them from killing you.
Rational fear and anger at vicious murderous Islamic terrorists is the same as irrational antisemitism, according to the Leftists.

DUH!!!!
"I wish it need not have happened in my time," said Frodo.

"So do I," said Gandalf, "and so do all who live to see such times. But that is not for them to decide. All we have to decide is what to do with the time that is given us."

I don't expect much in the way of any change in the culture of Mordor on the Potomac.

I expect Trump will transform it into a more streamlined gravy train for the fascist oligarchy and donor class that feeds from the trough as Trump erects his golden tower of power as a monument to himself.

I get a whiff of dynasty when I read the news abut this transition of late.
Fart for freedom, fart for liberty and fart proudly.  - Benjamin Franklin

...Obsta principiis—Nip the shoots of arbitrary power in the bud, is the only maxim which can ever preserve the liberties of any people. When the people give way, their deceivers, betrayers and destroyers press upon them so fast that there is no resisting afterwards. The nature of the encroachment upon [the] American constitution is such, as to grow every day more and more encroaching. Like a cancer, it eats faster and faster every hour." - John Adams, February 6, 1775
