Dowd-y Characterization Is Wrong, As Usual

Althouse caught this.

But many Americans knew they were voting for a thug. They wanted a thug who would bust up Washington, and they got one."  --Maureen Dowd, NYT

First off, "many Americans" voted AGAINST the worst charlatan and criminal ever to seek the Presidency.

And we did not mind at all that the guy we put in there turned out to be a tough sonofabitch.

"Thug"? 

Nope.  Thugs are evil bastards, like Schiff, Pelosi, Brennan, Comey (et. al.)

But Dowd-y doesn't get it.  Acela Corridor and all that.....
