Frank Luntz unloads on Trump

OK first off, I don't care a hoot about the emotional aspect of these stories I link to.  If someone killed trump and all of fox news tomorrow I wouldn't bat an eye.  Everything I have seen tells me they are all part of the same control mechanism.  I just don't care about them AT ALL.  And they don't care about me either.  I just think that's normal.

But they themselves are controlled by herding behavior and they don't even know it.  This is what I am reporting on; the story behind the herding is irrelevant.

I predicted years ago in many posts like this one that one of the signs that things were headed downhill fast was when we started seeing public figures completely discard the notion of political correctness.  In fact, I continue to be on record saying that before this is over there will be fisticuffs on the floor of congress.  I've given the reasons a hundred times so there is no need to rehash but I am monitoring the situation and today's story is, IMO, an escalation.  In it Frank Luntz accuses Trump of having a "fuck you" mentality.  He doesn't actually tell Trump "fuck you" but he repeats the F-U phrase over and over again enough times that anyone with a brain known he likes saying it in Trump's face.

When done there is no apology, no embarrassment.  What used to be over the top politically incorrect - and bad enough to get you fired - is now being the new normal.  This is what happens when there is less to go around.  The gloves come off, the niceties go by the wayside.  People don't always have to swear in this situation but they are more likely to speak plainly.  For example, "he misspoke" will be going out of favor very quickly and it will be replaced by not just "he lied" but more damning, "he's a bold faced liar" (apologies to people who think "bald faced liar" has any meaning - do people who shave lie more than bearded folks?).

Just look for communications to be more direct going forward and be prepared to answer directly.  This is what the herd will be looking for.  Again, that does not imply profanity or disrespect (although neither of these will be held back going forward if the situation warrants).  I'm just referring to good old conservative John Wayne type plain speak.  The changes will happen over the course of 1-2 decades, perhaps even longer.  I think a major top has been hit in liberalism and these are the signs that should be coming out if I am correct about this.
