Sadly, this is the real Dan Bongino:

https://www.washingtonpost.com/news/the-fix/wp/2016/08/24/what-a-lying-cursing-florida-candidate-for-congress-tells-us-about-politicians-and-the-press/?noredirect=on&utm_term=.944e72b7252a



After a short exchange on the merits of the NDN story, Bongino began reading a message "from a presidential campaign" warning him that Caputo was an "a--hole." In the call's final minutes, Caputo asked if Bongino was a professional candidate living off his political celebrity; Bongino responded with a flurry of unprintable words.

That clip immediately made news -- but Bongino tried, and somewhat succeeded, to shape its second life. At a press conference, in a podcast, and in a Facebook Live video, he portrayed himself as a blunt-talking tribune of the truth who was defending himself against the liberal media. At the popular conservative blogs Patterico's Pontifications and Ace of Spades, Caputo was presented as the heavy. In a popular column at the Federalist, Mollie Hemingway opined that the Caputo interview showed "what's wrong with media." Bongino, she wrote, was reacting to what he "thought was unfair political positioning" by the NDN. Caputo, a famously caustic Twitter personality, was giving a "distemperate performance" and revealing a media bias about Republicans.


Those takes shared one crucial element: They let Bongino, a candidate for office, get away with lying. His get-out-of-jail card was "media bias."

In all of this madness - no one is paying attention to 45's direct attack on Jeff Bezos - which could impact many Americans.

It's like - there are SO many freaking attacks we don't know which one to focus on.


And that 40% RKP? You know? We can't reach them. Anyone who approves of that thing in the White House at that point is just an awful American.

I'm sorry but that's my honest opinion.

And then those that don't give a damn about the country, its future, the people ... as long as they have wealth and power ... and as much greed as they wish. Plus, we have a fair number in congress just like that. It's damn stunning.

This man makes very, very dangerous enemies. Going after former members of the intelligence community, investigators, and prosecutors could be considered very reckless and foolish. People like Brennan aren't the same as his New York business associates or even the weak willed members of congress.

People like Brennan know things beyond Trump's scope and comprehension. With adversaries in congress, Trump is irritating people with limited resources (for now anyway), but with people of the intelligence community, he is poking the lion and the lion is getting very hungry.

Hardly a surprise, although I think he's come rather late to the party, and will find the pickings a lot leaner that in past years.

What I find borderline amazing, though, is that The Investigation is a sham, started on the flimsiest of sham documents, yet has stumbled into the most fantastic of coincidences - there actually are issues worth investigating, and people are going to prison over them.

Who'd have believed it?

ANYONE but himself. If his mother was still living, he’d blame her if it took the heat off of his wretched hide for one second. I hope psychiatrists and psychologists are observing him and taking copious notes because he really is one for the textbooks.

His MO is to distract and deflect. Whenever he needs to take some pressure off of himself, he points the finger to someone else. He needs to remember the old saying about when you point the finger at someone else, you have four more digits pointing back at yourself. 😳
