Even if you pretend her comment was false, and even if you don't care that it's clearly First Amendment-protected whether or not it's false, you've still got the problem that only the most pathetic, thin-skinned man-baby would throw this sort of tantrum about it.

Trump on Truth Social: "Kristen Welker, the Unpopular “Hostess” of the once great Meet the Press, now considered Meet the Fake Press, just stated that Donald Trump has “mixed results” on his Endorsements of Candidates, when the recent WINS of Darline Graham and Mike Mazzei, stand at 100% for the U.S. Senate, and 98% for the U.S. House, recently and over the longterm. How can anyone be allowed to say this, working for freely given Public Airwaves? Results are attached. Because of this purposeful inaccuracy, she will be reported to the FCC for rebuke or punishment. Unfortunately, she is not the only one. The Radical Left News is going out of their way to harass, demean, and libel anything “TRUMP.” Their new weapon is to say that my 99% SUCCESS Rate on Endorsements, 100% on Senatorial Endorsements (Many of whom were not even given a shot of winning until I Endorsed!), is either a mixed result, or not very good. In actuality, it is, without question, the strongest Endorsement in the History of Politics. If it were not, I would be the first to admit it. Darline Graham’s run for the Senate was the biggest story in all of Politics, because she wasn’t expected to win, and then, when I Endorsed her, and she easily won, the story of her Victory was hardly covered by anybody. Likewise, the future Governor of Oklahoma, who was behind in every Poll, I Endorsed him, he won, and the story was barely covered! The Press is a Disgrace to our Nation, and I hope that Chairman Brendan Carr, and the fine people of his Commission, will take this Threat to our Country very seriously. Thank you for your attention to this very important matter of Fake Polls and Commentary! President DONALD J. TRUMP"

It would have been wonderful if the Democrats had said, "Fellow Americans, whatever your views, we're all against a corrupt, brutal, dishonest executive. Let's unite to rein it in, and we can fight over other things later." They'd sweep the election. But they don't know how to do that.

One of the pleasures of my teenhood was reading rock critics and arguing with them in my head. Then I grew up, found myself on an email list with Dave Marsh, and got to argue with him more directly. I always enjoyed his writing, even when it made me want to argue. RIP.
