How to Stump a Liberal Journalist 101 #Truckgate

by Kim D.

There's a new course online - How to Stump a Liberal Journalist 101. And it's free!  All you have to do is join Twitter and follow John Eckdahl. To get the most out of the course, create a list and add John to your mobile notifications. Then all you have to do is sit back and watch the master at work and learn the subtle techniques to stump liberals in general to reveal their ingrained bigotry against anything non coastal and non elite.

We are in the midst of a culture war unlike anything we have ever seen and Eckdahl has a knack for making simple but poignant points which can make the unsuspecting and clueless lose their ever-loving minds. When the target is a liberal journalist, the result is priceless. For example, two days ago, John asked a simple question:
The responses were overwhelming and quite hilarious. For the most part, the journalists didn't understand the question and wrote it off as irritatingly stupid yet continued to debate it anyway. Why would it be important for reporters to know someone who owns a truck?
They don't have a clue which is why they still don't understand why in 15 days Donald Trump will become POTUS. This question is relevant and wasn't meant to mock anyone, although due to some interesting responses it inadvertently did - bonus. Eckdahl simply was making a point about the media and the bubble in which they live.
Really? This simple Rorschach test proves only one thing. If journalists don't know many people who own pickup trucks, they should if they want to understand the entire electorate and accurately report on the entire American experience. If this election can teach our media and political gatekeepers one thing, it should be that fly-over nation can no longer be ignored. When the focus is only on urban life and those who dwell there bully the rest of the nation with their identity politics, the pickup truck lovers can and will bite back.

Now that #Truckgate has been explored - on to the next question:
