Good old Dana Milbank of The Washington Post, who had hardly let a columnar occasion go past for the previous sixteen months without striking such blows as he was able to strike against the Trump candidacy, took the opportunity to slam the candidate's now even more reluctant Republican supporters for not having already known what the tape purported to reveal and what, of course, he already knew. [...]wrote the Post editorialist, there could be "nothing much at stake" in the debate-"or shouldn't be, because there is not much more to learn." For in Britain as in America, the job of reporting the news has in recent years too often taken a back seat to the reinforcement, with the help of media-identified experts, of an elite, bipartisan consensus on everything from trade to global warming to how to stimulate the economy to gay marriage. The only way the Post can cling to its pre-campaign certainties in the face of so much contrary evidence is by the expedient of something like Mrs. Clinton's "basket of deplorables"-that is, by regarding certain classes of opinion as tantamount to bigotry and therefore illegitimate-just as the idea that Britain should exit the European Union was widely regarded as illegitimate until a majority voted that it should.
