    Theory: 99.9% of the journo-pundits who declare “the walls are closing in” on Trump twelve times per week have at some point expressed admiration for George Orwell, who loathed cliches even more than they loathe Trump

        The walls aren't closing in, they are falling down and this is not the beginning of the end, it's the end of the beginning.

        It is not coincidence that daily obsessive “walls are closing in” statements, xenophobia of Russians, and hatred of principled figures/candidates are coming from the same political corners. It’s a competition with Trumpism, and things that are alike compete, not different.

        Everyone loves George, no one apparently reads or understands him. The guy was a socialist for a start, that puts him out of the orbit of 95% of Us politics.

        "It's the tipping point", "the beginning of the end". JournoList must still be up and running. They continually use the same clichés.

        They also are aghast at anti fascist movements when Orwell literally was an anti fascist soldier
