Mission Statement: This blog reviews the news of the day in light of 242 years of American history. "Nationalism," a modern day pejorative, has been our country's politic throughout history, until 2008. Obama changed that narrative. Trump is seeking a return to our historical roots. Midknight Review supports this return to normality.
Drudge posts an outright lie - unless, of course, he has a story from Scott Rasmussen we do not have:
Update to original post: Turns out, Drudge probably had advance notice to what Rasmussen posted this morning. Still, Drudge should not have jumped the gun. Its not as though he has any serious competition from other news portals Left or right. Anyway, here is what Scott Rasmussen says this morning:
The latest Rasmussen Reports White House Watch national telephone and online survey shows Trump with 43% support among Likely U.S. Voters to Clinton’s 41%.
Original Post:
Understand that this headline, at least the part about Rasmussen, is not hyperlinked. The fact of the matter is this: three days ago, Rasmussen had Hillary up 7 points; yesterday, she was up 4 points. Did Trump regain the lead since the last report? We do not know. Certainly, Drudge did not give us a current and documented story. We do not win when we act like the NY Times, folks.
Note: when I posted this memo, 4:50 am pt, this morning, clicking on the Rasmussen link only took the reader back to Drudge.
