The fox part kind of makes sense, given that foxes in fables tend to be portrayed as untrustworthy tricksters, but considering it's also the name of a network Newt is associated with it's a bit of a mixed message. And who the fuck knows what a hedgehog is supposed to represent there.
He's making a literary reference to Isiah Berlin, only it didn't work because nobody knows wtf he is talking about.

Have you ever seen Taylor Swift for Fascist Europe on Facebook? I don't know why but this made me think of that.
An adviser to Donald Trump on Wednesday offered a new explanation for why a portrait of Trump -- paid for by the GOP nominee's charitable foundation -- wound up on display at a Trump-owned golf resort in Florida.
Trump, the adviser said, was actually doing his charity a favor, by "storing" its painting on the wall of a bar at Trump National Doral, outside Miami.
"There are IRS rules which specifically state that when a foundation has an item, an individual can store those items -- on behalf of the foundation -- in order to help it with storage costs," Trump adviser Boris Epshteyn said on MSNBC. "And that's absolutely proper."
Tax experts were not impressed by this reasoning.
"It's hard to make an IRS auditor laugh," Brett Kappel, an attorney who advises nonprofit groups at the Akerman law firm, wrote in an email. "But this would do it."
Experts said that the IRS had actually ruled on a similar issue in 1974, in a case where a major donor to a private foundation took paintings belonging to that foundation and hung them in his home. (The rules against "self-dealing" apply to both major donors and to foundation officers, like Trump.) The IRS determined that this was, indeed, self-dealing -- because the homeowner was using the foundation's assets to benefit himself.
Epshteyn seemed to imply that Trump was also "storing" two other items that he bought with the Trump Foundation's money: a six-foot-tall portrait of Trump himself, bought for $20,000, and a football helmet autographed by former quarterback Tim Tebow. Trump bought the helmet for $12,000.

My first thought for "mythic attributes of the Hedgehog", in comparison to the Fox being the oily conman of the fable animal kingdom, was Nanny Ogg from Discworld and her "The Hedgehog Can Never Be Buggered At All" song.

Google "Sonic Christian" for example of how he's already a conservobot icon! (probably don't do it at work, though)

Yeah. If they're adamantly against Hillary and can't be convinced to vote for her, let them spend their votes on a third party protest. Fewer votes for Trump.
Or even better stay home and leave those down ballot votes as thrown away as voting 3rd party

Google is an imperfect oracle of popular will, but here’s one trend that seems pretty clear: Searches for the phrase “registrarse para votar” — “register to vote,” in Spanish — hit an all-time high during Monday’s presidential debate, spiking to more than 100,000 searches.
The term was Google’s third trending search in the United States at 10:30 p.m. Monday, preceded only by two phrases related to the Houston shooting. According to Google, search volume was highest in the ever-important swing state of Florida, followed by New Jersey, New York, Texas and California.

kind of see how someone that hasn't been following things closely would come away from that debate thinking clinton looked bad
informally addressing her opponent by his first name while he used her title, all but rolling her eyes at everything he said, constantly digging at his character, seeming to gang up with the moderator on him over fact-checks (which were valid fact-checks but if you don't realize that trump is a huge liar i can see how you'd almost think he was being bullied by them)
then again he openly bragged about not paying income taxes and rooting for the housing crisis

I've been getting solicitations for money from the Barack Obama fellow for a long time now.
To be fair, it sounds like Trump bought a mailing list instead of relying on sign-ups, which is what is getting people annoyed at him.
Just look for the employee in the back frantically ripping sandwiches apart and accusing coworkers of bogarting their stash.

edit- which is why the media spin is more important than the actual debate because they probably will see that.
