The Washington Post recently had another Trump meltdown. The topic this time? The great Trump “purge.” Here’s a sample of the hysterical headlines: “Trump embarks on expansive search for disloyalty as administration-wide purge escalates.”
This jewel begins as follows: 'President Trump has instructed his White House to identify and force out officials across his administration who are not seen as sufficiently loyal, a post-impeachment escalation that administration officials say reflects a new phase of a campaign of retribution and restructuring ahead of the November election. Johnny McEntee, Trump’s former personal aide who now leads the effort as director of presidential personnel, has begun combing through various agencies with a mandate from the president to oust or sideline political appointees who have not proved their loyalty, according to several administration officials and others familiar with the matter who spoke on the condition of anonymity to discuss internal deliberations.' Then there was this from The Post’s editorial board: “Trump puts an unqualified loyalist in charge of national intelligence.” PRESIDENT TRUMP’S campaign to purge the government of anyone not blindly loyal to him continued Wednesday with the appointment of Richard Grenell as acting director of national intelligence. These stories were not alone either, as elsewhere in the leftist media there was much the same theme of handwringing and teeth-gnashing over Trumpian “purges” of those “not blindly loyal to him.”
When The Washington Post Was Silent On The Clinton-Obama Purges
Questions:
1) Why are "journalists" like these so triggered by Trump doing a far lesser version of what they were perfectly fine with Clinton and Obama doing?
2) If you had Obama leftovers treasonously staging hoaxes at every turn from within your administration, wouldn't YOU respond by cleaning house?
