The Washington Post and the one man 'mobs'

Power Line:

The Washington Post states: “While [President] Trump has blasted Democrats as ‘an angry left-wing mob’ and the ‘party of crime,’ researchers have identified just one fatal attack in 2018 that may have been motivated by left-wing ideologies.” By contrast, “researchers say at least 20 people have died this year in suspected right-wing attacks.”

These counts may be accurate, though I’m not prepared to take the word of the Washington Post and/or “researcher” for it. But note the fundamental dishonesty of the Post’s claim (made by the tag-team of Wesley Lowery, Kimberly Kindy, and Andrew Ba Tran) that these numbers contradict what Trump said about the left-wing mob.

The killings the Post cites have nothing to do with mobs. The lone gunman who attacked Jews in a Pittsburgh synagogue was not a mob. The guy who attacked Democrats in a Kentucky coffee shop — the lead-off incident in the Post’s story — was not a mob. Neither was the shooter at a “historically black church” in Kentucky, also cited by the Post.

...

There is more.

 The Post appears to have been looking for an excuse to the attack conservatives and the President and chose an illogical approach.  It seems typical of their unfair reporting about the President whose persona and policies they obviously hate.
