HuffPo Laments That One Year in, "Trump Is Winning"

In the midst of much hand-wringing and anguished sighs, the Huffington Post has announced to its readers that after his first year in office "Trump Is Winning."
"This is one of the hardest things I've ever had to write and admit," begins Earl Ofari Hutchinson in his essay, "Trump is winning."
Hutchinson, an author and co-host of the Al Sharpton Show, observes that according to numerous indicators the Trump presidency is a success, beginning with his delivery of a long list of campaign promises.
Among Mr. Trump's many victories, Hutchinson enumerates Mick Mulvaney's appointment to head the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau, Neil Gorsuch's contribution to the Supreme Court, Scott Pruitt's work at the EPA, Trump's support of fossil fuels to make America energy independent, the RNC backing of judge Roy Moore in Alabama, the fizzling out of Russiagate, the passage of the tax reform bill, and the record-level stock market.
Yet all of these wins are small potatoes compared to Trump's three top victories, Hutchinson claims.
First, the President has successfully taken charge of the Republican Party. "He is the point man for GOP policy and issues and, in a perverse way, the spur to get action on them," Hutchinson notes. {Funny, I seriously doubt that Mr. Hutchinson viewed the fact that Barry Soetoro was in charge of the Democrat Party from 2009 through 2016 and was point-man for Democrat policy and issues as somehow being perverse, eh? Such pathetic hypocrisy!}
Second, Mr. Trump has managed to energize his base and keep their loyalty. The "overwhelming majority" of Republican voters continues to back him, Hutchinson admits. "This is the voter loyalty that buys a lot of support from the GOP establishment even as they flail him or shake their head in disgust at his antics," he writes. {The GOPe brought this on themselves - by consistently acting like a bunch of weak-kneed prevaricators who cared more about the Deep State (and their power within it) than the Constitutional well-being of the American people - WHO ARE THEIR ACTUAL BOSSES.}
Third, Trump has successfully harnessed the mainstream media for his own purposes. "He remains a ratings cash cow for the networks and makes stunning copy for the print media," Hutchinson complains. "He knew that from day one of his presidential bid and he knows it even more now. He will continue to suck the media air out of everything that the Democrats do and try to do." {Nah, pajama boy ... the media has been its own worst enemy for decades, now. The mainstream media is a shameless, unrepentant, lying whore for the anti-American left ... and obviously so for a long, long, long time. The American people are sick and tired of the hateful, lying mainstream media. All President Trump is doing is to stand up and point out the obvious duplicity of the mainstream media, which has become nothing more than a libtard propaganda machine that spews FAKE NEWS, and allowing the American people to pass judgment on the mainstream media that viscerally hates this country, its Constitution, and its citizens.}
