We’re going to get character assassinations and sex scandals concerning Donald Trump’s presidential appointees, and sanctimonious chin-wagging from “thoughtful” and “prudent” members of the Senate GOP caucus as they simp for the discredited Propaganda Press and their pals at the Democrat National Committee.

What we’re really getting is the Old Game for Christmas. And the American people have had it with the Old Game.
It started with Matt Gaetz, the original nominee for attorney general in the new Trump administration. Gaetz didn’t last long when it became very obvious that he wasn’t going to be able to gather up a requisite consensus among the Republicans in the Senate to get to the 50 votes that would allow incoming Vice President JD Vance to push his confirmation over the top, so he ejected.
When Gaetz did, the president-elect replaced him with former Florida Attorney General Pam Bondi, whose stature and background are unimpeachable enough to take her confirmation out of the realm of controversy. Bondi’s main negative was, as Jack Cashill noted here at The American Spectator a few days back, her mishandling of the Trayvon Martin–George Zimmerman case a dozen years ago. But naturally, none of the establishment Washington Generals in the Senate GOP caucus will ding her for that.
Instead, it’s going to be others who are bearing the brunt of the current Old Game media assault. And these utterly talentless cloakroom lounge lizards Republican voters have saddled ourselves with, who still don’t know what time it is in America, have so far made it pretty clear that they aren’t on our side.
They’re still on the side of the Old Game.
