From WSJopinion: The more Trump forces Republicans to defend words or actions that don’t deserve defending, the more their resentment will build and the more political trouble he will be in

Donald Trump made himself a political celebrity in 2016 by persuading news media to talk about—Donald Trump. He did it mainly by the expedient of saying outrageous things—by trolling, in the parlance of social media—and it worked. It’s still working, though these days as often to his detriment as advantage.

On Tuesday the President guaranteed he’d be topic number one for at least 24 hours by tweeting that the effort to impeach him is a “lynching.” Instantly, and perhaps as he intended, his critics in the media, on Capitol...

opinion More? How’s that even possible? If they haven’t had it with him by now can’t imagine what would make them do the right thing.

opinion Now do Canada! This POS just got re-elected. We'll all be expecting an outraged opinion piece from you very, very soon. TrudeauBlackface

opinion That’s the WSJ wet dream but sorry to ruin your unicorn...

opinion I’m sick of the Democrats using racism as a means to try and divide this country. Racism is a word that use to have a very important meaning! Now it’s thrown around so much that the word has lost it’s impact.

opinion Dems screamed “lynching” when BillClinton was impeached for real illegalities. Trump had a duty to investigate Ukraine/Dem election interference & protecting vs any foreign election interference should be a priority. WastedEditorial KimStrassel ByronYork

opinion If you want to overthrow a democratically elected president, you better damn well have a better reason than you don’t like the guy’s choice of language or politics. Otherwise you invite civil war and that’s exactly what all these fascist impeachment supporters are doing.

opinion More nonsense from the WSJ

opinion Typical far left hypocrisy! Subscription cancelled.

opinion We can only hope the GOP will finally put country before party

opinion Il ne sait même pas lui même ce qu'il voulait.

opinion Well if you don't want to defend Trump, try defending the 95% who support what he's accomplished....

opinion Amazing that Republicans, particularly the state party leadership that run the primaries, continue to think that Trump is the VERY BEST that they can offer as a candidate. Just how crappy is your bench?

opinion The verb comes from the phrase 'Lynch Law', a term for a punishment without trial. Origin approximately 1780.

opinion His approval rating among Republicans is 90% and he is raising an obscene amount of money for the party; he’s not going any where, you idiots

opinion ImpeachTrump PresidentBoneSpurs

opinion Maybe trump should be lynched by his Republican counterparts.

opinion After all of this, you still don't get it.

opinion Have always said his tweets and blustering are his own worst enemy

opinion Not as long as video evidence of stupid Dems using same words in similar circumstances. Then position is defensible.

opinion Give it up, WSJ. We are tired of your junk.

opinion I doubt it

opinion Vote

opinion BS!

opinion do any of you wonder why we the people DETEST, yes DETEST 85% of CONGRESS! ever wonder?

opinion And the never-Trump WSJ Editorial Board is:

opinion Donny is above the law. Donny is above the GOP. All Hail Lying King Space Cadet Bone Spurs

opinion Joe Biden

opinion Something you write when you don’t know the meaning of the word lynch

opinion The President said the same thing as JoeBiden. Republicans did not have to defend a Democrat approved word. WSJ going off the deep end is a poor use of valuable opinion space. The Schiff team barricading the truth in the basement is prime for scathing approbation. tt:DevinNunes

opinion (shrugs) If the 'noose' fits then 'lynching' is a good description. 🙄

opinion He's Teaching to utilize their courage and fight for America. It is worth fighting for WSJ, Isn't it? Or should the Republicans cower in their offices as this travesty of Kangaroo justice is perpetrated upon America, as our Constitution lay unprotected from these assaults?

opinion I assume this was written before the exposing of the use of 'lynching' by multiple democrats at time of WJC impeachment.

opinion If O.J. Simpson ran for president and won..

opinion Thank you for reminding me why I cancelled my subscription after 40 years.

opinion Donald is rotting away at that stubborn Republican backing. If Abe could only come and talk today. They are learning they elected an amoral person. A devil of the the decent people.

opinion POTUS Once again, is WRONG

opinion This is RIDICULOUS! This was SO COMMONLY USED by BOTH parties. The ISSUE is you ASSHATS that make it an ISSUE.

opinion Trump is the best POTUS in history

opinion trump’s words, deeds, and actions alone are responsible for the position trump finds himself in today. And republicans are realizing it.

opinion

opinion We are witnessing a failed presidency in real time. Sadly, citizens don't control those who keep moving the floor lower and lower. When will the madness end? The ensuing damage domestically and internationally will take a decade to fix.

opinion Who the hell casually throws around the word “lynching” - something seriously wrong with McDonald

Donald Trump's 'lynching' comment and racism make him 'no better' than the Nazis and KKK, Democratic Rep. says in scathing speech'If you continue to weaponize racism and bigotry, this makes you no better than those who were screaming 'blood and soil',' said Democratic Representative Al Green. And it doesn’t make his supporters no better too. Even when Trump is gone half of the USA is like this ...no way better than the Nazis and the KKK Apparently, Dems used same term when Clinton impeached but wasn't as great an outrage. Sometimes we use figures of speech but not meant as was taken. Still poor use of words because it can't remotely compare! Now do joe Biden
