WOODBRIDGE, Va. — Prince William County Board of Supervisors Chair Corey Stewart announced Thursday he would challenge Virginia Sen. Tim Kaine in 2018 — and cast his campaign as a challenge to the rest of the Republican Party, too.

Stewart launched his Senate run exactly one month after barely losing Virginia’s GOP gubernatorial primary to former Republican National Committee Chairman Ed Gillespie with fighting words for Kaine and the GOP alike. Stewart massively outperformed expectations in losing to Gillespie by less than 2 percentage points, and he painted his combative, Trump-inspired style as the future of the Republican Party.

“The era of the kinder, gentler Republican is over,” Stewart said.

Stewart also reserved plenty of rancor for Kaine, Hillary Clinton’s vice presidential running mate in 2016.

“As an obedient servant to Hillary Clinton and Barack Obama, Tim Kaine is the leading obstructionist against Trump’s America First agenda,” Stewart said. “Virginians and citizens across the country need a fighter representing them in D.C.”

In an interview wth Brietbart News today, Trump said he doesn’t consider all media the “enemy of the American people” or “the opposition party” or “fake news.” He’s referring only to the major television networks (NBC, ABC and CBS), CNN, MSNBC, The Washington Post, and The New York Times. "If you read The New York Times, it’s — the intent is so evil and so bad,” Trump said. “The stories are wrong in many cases, but it’s the overall intent.”

Trump wants the public to consider Brietbart, Fox News, and other right-wing outlets the sources of truth. This is part of the Trump-Bannon strategy to discredit all criticism of Trump and, ultimately, undermine the public’s faith in any authority other than Trump. This is the essence of authoritarianism. - Robert Reich
