The biggest losers on election
night were in the liberal media, an adjunct of the national Democratic Party.
But the far-left "progressives" who had backed Senator Bernie Sanders
(I-VT) and then rationalized voting for Hillary Clinton lost big. Many
conservatives in the media also look like fools.
The left-wingers who were
humiliated include:
· Noam Chomsky, the Marxist academic, had come up
with the idea of voting for Hillary as the lesser of two evils. He argued that,
in competitive “swing” states, a “progressive” should vote for the “lesser
evil” Democrat. This was necessary to stop Trump, he said.
· Jeff Cohen, a professor of journalism at Ithaca
College, co-authored an article with Norman Solomon that echoed Chomsky and said,
“…if we lived in a swing state, we would vote for Clinton as the only way to
prevent a Trump presidency.” Cohen and Solomon were Sanders supporters.
· Michael Moore, the left-wing filmmaker, endorsed
Hillary and screened his film, “Michael Moore in TrumpLand,” at a pro-Hillary rally in Michigan,
a state that Trump won. Moore said of
Hillary, “I think and I hope that she is a different person. She says she is.
She’s adopted two-thirds of Bernie’s platform.”
· The Communist Party USA. On the eve of the
election, in an article headlined, “Vote like life itself were hanging in the
balance. It is!,” the CPUSA paper the People’s World told American communists:
“You’re urgently needed to get out the vote for Hillary Clinton and the
Democratic House, Senate and gubernatorial candidates in your state—especially
because right wingers have been playing dirty tricks to suppress voting.”
