Call it “the revenge of John Galt“, call it “the revenge of main street“, call it “the rebuke of the compliance department”, or call it something else…. but what’s brutally missing amid all the pearl-clutching punditry is an acceptance that President Trump is ushering back an era of The Titans of Capitalism.

A succinct comment by thesavyinvester cuts to the brutal heart of the matter:

How ironic… The last 8 yrs ( and frankly much longer ) the non producing bureaucratic state only focused on growing it’s own organisms ( like something Ripley fought against ) rather than fostering yours, will now be run by those that for eons that had to dot their I’s and cross their T’s for all these pencil pushers. Yikes, they will be more uncomfortable than Rodney Dangerfield constantly adjusting his collar and tie during his comedy routine?. No I am not tired of winning, grab the popcorn this will be fun.

Today marks exactly three weeks since former New York Mayor Rudy Giuliani was visible on any MSM interview or broadcast.

Moments ago Mayor Giuliani called in to Fox News Neil Cavuto and announced he was removing himself from being considered by Donald Trump for any cabinet position; specifically from consideration for the nomination of Secretary of State. Watch:

Earlier today former campaign manager Kellyanne Conway was interviewed on Fox and Friends morning broadcast. Ms. Conway discusses the ongoing President-elect transition and nomination process, as well as the ongoing internal interviews.

Long before President-elect Donald Trump selected Andy Puzder to be the nominee for Secretary of Labor, Puzder appeared with John Stossel for a forum interview. Within the short 5:00 minute segment which aired you can sense the general perspectives of Puzder.

Additionally, it would be intellectually dishonest not to note the inherent libertarian perspective. This, when combined with the Trump, Bannon, R & R Mercer connection, provides the backdrop for the nomination of a more libertarian-minded business executive.

The professional left is really trying hard to embed a narrative about the need for divergent political opinion to be labeled as “fake news”.

Cue the creepy jackboot marching music in 3… 2… 1….
This is disturbing on so many levels; not the least of which is the compare and contrast between the speech content yesterday noted above, and the speech Hillary Clinton gave at Andrews Air Force Base three days after the Benghazi attack – when she specifically and intentionally lied to the American people and blamed an internet video for the death of Ambassador Chris Stevens, Chris Smith, Ty Wood and Glenn Doherty.

Donald Trump came under fire for saying the Boeing Air-Force-One replacement program was ridiculously too costly at a $4 billion price tag:

Immediately the Trump opposition, which is essentially the entire MSM apparatus, went into apoplectic rage and attack mode because, according to them, there was no basis for the price assertion at $4 billion.
However, Pentagon contract documents obtained by The Daily Mail show Donald Trump was precisely correct, and all the moonbat antagonists were precisely wrong.
