Conservative columnist Peggy Noonan eviscerates Donald Trump in new column.

Courtesy of the Wall Street Journal:  

The president’s primary problem as a leader is not that he is impetuous, brash or naive. It’s not that he is inexperienced, crude, an outsider. It is that he is weak and sniveling. It is that he undermines himself almost daily by ignoring traditional norms and forms of American masculinity. 

He’s not strong and self-controlled, not cool and tough, not low-key and determined; he’s whiny, weepy and self-pitying. He throws himself, sobbing, on the body politic. He’s a drama queen. It was once said, sarcastically, of George H.W. Bush that he reminded everyone of her first husband. Trump must remind people of their first wife. Actually his wife, Melania, is tougher than he is with her stoicism and grace, her self-discipline and desire to show the world respect by presenting herself with dignity. […] 

His public brutalizing of Attorney General Jeff Sessions isn’t strong, cool and deadly; it’s limp, lame and blubbery. “Sessions has taken a VERY weak position on Hillary Clinton crimes,” he tweeted this week. Talk about projection. 

Damn!

 Noonan sums up her verbal curb stomping of Donald Trump thusly:

Donald Trump now is like an unfunny Woody Allen.

Yeah in the world of conservatism it does not get much worse than to be compared to Woody Allen or Alan Alda.

Though to be honest I think either one of those guys could crush Donald Trump in a street brawl.

I mean by the time the guy finally liberated his overly plump arms from the confines of his suit, courtesy of Omar the Tent Maker, he would be way too exhausted to actually make a fist. 

Other than that I think that Noonan has perfectly described Trump's lack of manliness in a way that I am sure will inspire him to wake up at 3:00 AM and slam his pudgy digits onto the keys of his smart phone until the hurting stops.

Maybe he will even call up the Mooch and have him do that thing where he describes what a great athlete Trump is:

“He’s the most competitive person I’ve ever met,” Scaramucci said. “Okay? I’ve seen this guy throw a dead spiral through a tire. I’ve seen him at Madison Square Garden with a topcoat on. He’s standing in the key; he’s hitting foul shots and swishing them, all right? He sinks 30-foot putts.” 

"Say it again Moochy, only slower this time and try to make it sexy."

Reverend Sarah Palin preaches that we are weak, pathetic, and nothing without God. Well there's a happy thought!

You, that's right you, are weak and pathetic. Now don't you feel inspired?
Courtesy of Sarah Palin's online place of worship, called "The First Assembly of You All Suck!"

Let's dive right in shall we and let the inspiration wash over our very souls.

Scoot Over; Get Out Of The Driver’s Seat 

That is why, for Christ’s sake, I delight in weaknesses, in insults, in hardships, in persecutions, in difficulties. For when I am weak, then I am strong. 2 Corinthians 12:10 (Keep in minds kids that this is the person who claims that SHE is the real personification of feminism in this country, NOT those courageous women who demonstrated their ability to stand on their own without a man and demanded to be treated as equals. Clearly they were not weak enough.)

There’s nothing like the feeling you get as a mama or a daddy when a child reaches out to you. Little children, by design, are dependent on you for food, protection, and love. (Well I do agree with this at least.)

Guess what, Mom and Dad: We’re all designed to be dependent on God. In fact, we can’t get through life without Him. If you’re like me, you sometimes forget this. We think we’re in control, and – just like our kids – we sometimes forget the true source of our help and protection. (Yes citizens of the 21st Century, always keep in mind that you have achieved NOTHING and that there is an invisible man in the sky who is eternally seeing you as a needy helpless child.)

Only when the winds of persecution begin to blow are we reminded of our weaknesses. In the midst of spiritual battle, we have no one else to turn to but the One really in control. We come face to face with our humanity – our limitations – and we are left seeking the strength and perspective that only comes from above. (Or you could face your adversity, overcome it, and become stronger for the conflict. Just a thought.)

This, friends, is actually a blessing of difficulties, hardships, insults, and persecution: we’re given the opportunity to truly rely on our Maker. Persecution strips us of false notions we have about our own strength, and reminds us where the real stuff can be found – in the arms of our Heavenly Father! Sweet Freedom in Action (WTF?)

Take a break in the arms of the Father, even now. Ask for Him to take control of all areas of your life where you’ve insisted on being in the driver’s seat. (Okay now I think I understand why pedophilia is so rampant within the church. These people are conditioned to be victims.)

Look there is no sense in my suggesting that I understand this even a little bit.

As you know I am not a religious person and find the entire concept to be an obstacle to attaining our destiny as human beings. 

But seriously HOW does this kind of thinking help us to overcome life's many obstacles?

I was very fortunate to be taught at an early age to strive for perfection and to push my limits until I could push no more.

As a result I won championships, set records, and overcame my insecurities, none of which would have been possible if I were told to "delight in weaknesses."

I taught gymnastics to young people, self defense to women, and necessary life skills to the emotionally and mentally fragile.

At no time in my life have I ever told a single person that "when they are weak, they are strong."

Hell no! When you are strong you are strong, and when you are weak it is only because you are at the beginning of your journey to becoming strong.

As human beings we have proven ourselves to be capable of amazing discoveries, courageous adventures, and awe inspiring accomplishments.

Just imagine how much more we could have achieved if there were not those preaching to us that we are nothing, and can do nothing, without the assistance of a celestial patriarch?
