The First Of Many

As I noted yesterday, the 2020 election was influenced by an infamous letter signed by 51 intelligence experts. The letter, alleging Russian disinformation, was itself a disinformation dirty trick. And since it worked last time, they’re doing it again.

We now have the first of what will no doubt be many “expert” letters promoting one candidate over the other.

Sixteen economists just released a letter claiming that Donald Trump’s economic policies will “reignite inflation.” Of course, the left-wing media dutifully hyped the letter.

But here’s what the talking heads didn’t say: All 16 economists are liberals, and many are donors to left-wing causes. One of them, George Akerlof, is married to Treasury Secretary Janet Yellen, which raises the question of whether this letter is another dirty trick.

So, buckle up. It won’t be long before 20 historians sign a letter saying, “The greatest threat to democracy in history is Donald Trump.”

You can expect a letter from dozens of foreign policy experts warning that Donald Trump will get us into multiple wars and get your children killed overseas.

There will be a letter signed by a cadre of former military officers claiming Donald Trump will destroy our alliances.

And a coalition of concerned proctologists will issue a manifesto alleging that Donald Trump will give you hemorrhoids. Well, maybe that’s a stretch, but you get the point.
