Trump Resumes Tweets With Personal Attacks Despite Bipartisan Criticism

donald_trump_president-elect_portrait_croppedYesterday, Republicans lined up to denounce the insulting tweets posted by President Donald Trump as degrading for the Office of the President and damaging to the GOP agenda.  However, this morning Trump was again on Twitter calling Joe Scarborough “Crazy” and Mika Brzezinski “dumb as a rock.”  He also unleashed attacks on CNN and the media.  GOP leaders and 71 percent of the public have said that these tweets are harming his presidency, but Trump continues unabated.  The fact that the President would resume name-calling after his own party leaders begged him to stop is a matter a considerable concern among Republicans.

This morning the President tweeted:

“Crazy Joe Scarborough and dumb as a rock Mika are not bad people, but their low rated show is dominated by their NBC bosses. Too bad!”

  1. “Trump Resumes Tweets With Personal Attacks Despite Bipartisan Criticism”
    ____________________________________________________________

    A lot of people would have been critical of George Washington for killing the British

    with a few Indians thrown in for good measure; you know, just to make a little room.

    “What difference, at this point, does it make?”

    In the current, politically toxic, “fake news” environment, a few ribald tweets are reasonable and forgivable.

    1. George

      The preponderance of ‘fake news’ comes from Trump. The man lies pathologically. His lies have dwarfed all predecessors and current accomplices. He forces his team members to lie, and if they can’t keep a straight face, they’re fired. It’s not just the tweets. It’s the incompetence, the arrogance, and the shame.

        1. ” It’s not just the tweets. It’s the incompetence, the arrogance, and the shame.”

          Just as long as he keeps those tweets coming.

          Every minute he tweets is not just amusing, it is a minute he is not using the power of the presidency to push his agenda.

          Every time he pounds a keyboard, he is not pounding our fellow citizens or another country.

          If he ever wears out a phone I will gladly contribute mine just so he can keep tweeting.

          It has gotten to the point I would not feel safe if he were not tweeting weird stuff.

          If he is tweeting, at least we know where is fingers are. I don’t know about guys, but if I ever wake up and there are no weird tweets I heading for the shelter – no telling what he might have been up to.

          We all need a good belly laugh once in a while, like every morning.

          1. BFM – LOL! I agree – let him tweet! I felt the same about Obama when folks complained about him golfing too much – my take was let him golf – that way he wouldn’t be pushing the TPP and bombing new countries.

            1. Since Trump is clueless about foreign policy, he has given control to the generals. He tweets about media celebrities while they bomb.

            2. Trump is on a golf holiday so one would hope he might relax but his obsession with Joe and Mika got the best of him again and he had another twitter rage attack. He seems mentally incapable of letting go of them and they know it.

          2. ” It’s not just the tweets. It’s the incompetence, the arrogance, and the shame.”

            “Every minute he tweets is not just amusing, it is a minute he is not using the power of the presidency to push his agenda.”

            I hope you guys believe your own incoherent meanderings because no rational person would.

            Did you say arrogance and shame – Bill and Hillary Clinton – Tyson bribes, Bleach-Bit, 30K e-mails, Jennifer Flowers, rapes, Whitewater, Vince Foster, Monica Lewinsky, “Orgy Island,” State Dept. pay-for-play, The Clinton Crime Family Foundation, etc.?

            Every morning, President Trump has awoken much earlier, attended to his tasks as President and taken the time to tweet facts about lies, false political attacks by disgruntled election opponents (i.e. losers), corrupt journalism, fake news, etc. for your entertainment and “belly laugh” before you even stop snoring. He works circles around you and makes it LOOK easy.

            Hello! Donald Trump just won a national election for the highest office in the world. No big deal, right? What have you done lately? Ask Justice Neil Gorsuch if President Donald J. Trump accomplishes anything. Kennedy and Ginsburg could go any day and I’ll bet Trump is already working on that potential. He won the U.S. Presidential election and four special elections. He stopped the “Psycho,” Hillary Rotten Clinton, Obongocare is as dead as the “Paris Accord To Further The Implementation of Global Communism.” President Trump responded with resolve and force when Syria crossed Trump’s WMD red line, supported by the EU. Andrew McCabe, Jane Sanders, Susan “The Unmasker” Rice and Lowretta “The Obstructor General” Lynch are under investigation. The push-back on deleterious invasion, posing as “immigration,” has begun. Geez! From here it kinda looks like President Trump is pushing the he– out of his agenda.

            Just go back to sleep and dream about trite and mundane tweets, while President Trump “fundamentally transforms” America and Makes America Great Again.

            Rest well knowing you’re in good hands.

              1. ” “Every minute he tweets is not just amusing, it is a minute he is not using the power of the presidency to push his agenda.” I hope you guys believe your own incoherent meanderings because no rational person would. Did … George, brilliant ass-kicking!”

                The question has been raised, so let me assure you one and all, for so long as Trump is tweeting with his fingers on the keyboard then it is my belief that Trump is not using the power of the presidency to further his agenda.

                If anyone has any evidence that Trump can tweet and govern at the same time, please let me know.

                I would be glad to give serious consideration to any evidence that Trump can tweet and govern at the same time – any at all – of any kind – from any source.

                Now remember, some troll spouting made up ad hominem nonsense does not count as evidence.

            2. Haha! Very rich indeed. You left out Roswell, Area 51, fluoridation, and black helicopters. Just sayin.

              This is to George.

          3. Find ding ding! We have a winner! Pay the man, Shecky.

            This is to mike.

      2. Hey bichi bacon don’t you ever get tired of being made to play the fool? Of course not the IBK Model One is a machine and only needs a little three in one oil and a kick start. Not ad hominem. That’s for real humans not inhumanoids..

        1. Bet you anything he doesn’t know the meaning of bichi….

    Little Rock shooting of 25 at rap show prompts call to curb growing violence

    Police said 25 people were shot early on Saturday at a rap show at a nightclub in downtown Little Rock, prompting pleas from community leaders to curb the growing violence in Arkansas’ capital city.

    Police said the shooting at Power Ultra Lounge was the result of a dispute among club-goers and not an active shooter or terror-related incident. Little Rock police said later on Saturday that 25 people were shot and three others suffered unrelated injuries. All were expected to survive, police said.

    I am sure that white supremacists are behind this. . .

  3. I remember a time when this was a decent legal blog and not some gossip rag.

    Heavy sigh…

    1. It was my understanding that Professor Turley was the preeminent “constitutional scholar,” thus the painting of the American Founders, Constitutional Congress of 1789, then sitting, at the top of his blog site, but I come to find that he can’t even grasp, support and promote the simplest, most essential constitutional principle that the right to private property precludes any and all forms of “redistribution of wealth” and “social engineering” in that government cannot tax away or take private property (i.e. money) from one man to give private property to another without violating the very definition of private and the constitutional right.

      Professor Turley just can’t comprehend that the principles of communism shall not be imposed in America and that it is unconstitutional to nationalize the free market charity industry.

      So much for constitutional scholarship!

      1. You also have the right to forego the use of punctuation; but the consequence of that decision is to reveal that you’re off your meds again.

  4. Apparently the not-terribly-bright, but considered-to-be-cute Mika called Trump a homosexual a few weeks ago? https://twitter.com/JackPosobiec/status/880544252714860544

    I’m no fan of Trump– but not of Joe & Mika either.

    Joe & Mika have a circus-act: they are entertainers, not serious commentators– neither are fit to be called journalists by any stretch of the imagination.

    That said, Trump would serve himself & our nation better if he would ignore MSM buffoons & entertainers with more money than brains.

    Pity that Trump & Hillary–both who serve the Oligarchy, NOT US, were the only choices due to a corrupt election fraud system. We deserved better that either of these two puppets of the powerful who continue to profit at our expense. Alas.

  5. There is a bumper sticker on my car as of ten minutes ago. It says: Orange Morons Need Love Too.

    In 2020 I think we need a bumper sticker akin to the Nixon one back in “72.
    “Don’t Change Morons In The Middle of a Screw. Vote for Orange Guy or Fling Some Foo.”

    1. Make it “Obama” and swap the hat for a crucifix and it works just the same.

  7. Mr. Trump’s ascendancy to power and the ultimate leadership position in the United States of America is a direct statement by the truly powerful billionaires, power brokers, defense industry to us, the voters, that they are in control. Our votes are a joke. Mr. Trump is the example that they can elect and place in the presidency and in our congress anyone they want to. Even a Mr. Trump. These are very scary times for the future generations of our country. We are witnessing a downward spiral with little hope of stopping the carnage and loss. That is, unless we coalesce as a nation and throw out all our political leadership and replace them with a common sense doctrine and immediate campaign reforms. We must first overturn Citizens vs. United.

  9. President Trump’s tweets are the perfect weapon against the deep state. I seriously doubt Trump’s thoughts are significantly different than those of his predecessors. His are simply unfiltered and a shock to the programmed masses used to relying on the “What he meant” crowd to translate for them.

    Just like with Obama, I ignore what he says and I pay special attention to what he does. So far he’s doing just fine.

    1. I kind of like the name: Orange Moron. Maybe that will stick. I will stick to it and stick on Trump whenever I post a comment.

      1. That’s what it’s come down to, you and your central party has thrown everything at our President you might as well go with the name calling, it’s all you have.

    2. Ask Justice Neil Gorsuch if President Donald J. Trump has anything to do. Kennedy and Ginsburg could go any day. He won the U.S. Presidential election and four special elections. He stopped the “Psycho,” Hillary Rotten Clinton, Obongocare is as dead as the “Paris Accord To Further The Implementation of Global Communism.” Andrew McCabe, Jane Sanders, Susan “The Unmasker” Rice and Lowretta “The Obstructor General” Lynch are under investigation. The push-back on deleterious invasion, posing as “immigration,” has begun. Geez! From here it kinda looks like President Trump has a lot of things to do.

      1. Enjoyed reading this! I’ll take Trump over everybody Tom both parties who tossed the hat in!

  11. I found the perfect Tweet treatment. Shock Therapy. I got mine, now you can get yours. I’m going back for another shock treatment after the 4th of July. All medical bills covered under ACA. Except a few. Nurse Ratched extra out of pocket fee is one.

  12. The tweets would be no less offensive even if they had discernible purpose or logic. Take away his phone and the nuclear codes.

  13. Hey, JT. . .every hear of the old adage that it takes two to tango? Yeah. It’s an old one, but, nevertheless, a good one. Trump reminds me of the kid, surrounded on the playground by bullies. No, Trump isn’t the weakling on the playground, surrounded by bullies. Just one person, outnumbered and surrounded by bullies. Bullies who have gained momentum and who now feel emboldened, due to the numbers of others alongside of them, to relentlessly taunt, dehumanize and ridicule the lone, standing individual. At a certain point, the one being bullied is going to lash out. Strike back. In any way that he possibly can. It won’t be nice. It won’t be pretty. It may not even be Presidential. Ask yourself–has he been treated with the dignity and the respect normally reserved for the President of the United States? Yes, no one wants to see a President of the United States reduced to calling others names or ridiculing their appearance, but where is your righteous indignation when that choice to call vile names and ridicule one’s physical appearance is aimed at our President? A choice made by supposed professionals, whose fat a$$es are paid exorbitant amounts of money, to discuss the news. I don’t recall any articles in which you blast the MSM for stepping over the line with regard to this issue. For ridiculing the President, his wife, his kids, etc. I don’t remember you openly and vociferously chastising those two knuckleheads, involved in this controversy, as they, day after day, say the most disgusting, disparaging and improper comments about Trump. Could that be because you will no longer be invited to sit next to them, on air, if you would openly proclaim that they should stick to discussing his policies and to refrain from comments about his appearance or other inconsequential slams? How about you say that to Mutt and Jeff the next that you are on-air with them, live? Hmmmm??? Let me know when that is gonna happen. I wont, however, hold my breath.

    1. Here, here well said! Remember he has now “outed” a progressive media with their own idea of what America should look like. There’s no news today just a left wing opinion.

    2. Yes, bam bam there are loads of bullies out in the playground and Trump is all alone. Yet the bullies cry out how unfair things are and how Trump has them surrounded.

      1. The Pizza Hut spokesman isn’t a bully. He’s a charlatan posing as one.

    3. You must really not recall the last eight years. Or read the comments section of any right wing blog.

      “but where is your righteous indignation when that choice to call vile names and ridicule one’s physical appearance is aimed at our President?”

      1. The difference enig is that under Obama the comments were mostly made by individuals or bloggers.

        Today it is the mainstream media (that are supposed to be impartial) that are making the crazy statements.

        2. Darn straight! And to tbob who said the same thing!

          (Although I did giggle at the photo of Moochelle and the two European leader’s wives going up the steps with the “Two Ferrari’s and A Dump Truck!” caption.)

          1. Are you totally clueless? Fox news is the one TV network that leans conservative. The viewing audience of each of the major broadcast stations is much greater than Fox.

            You like to play the victim card don’t you?

            1. That huge percentage of right wingers that live in a media bubble never get exposed to the rest. This is what allows them to have a completely separate fact universe. “Victim card?” Is that some preprogrammed response. Nothing in my response indicates that.

              1. I understand, you complain that Fox News has ABC, NBC, CBS, CNPC,PBS etc. plus the NYTimes, Washington Post etc. are all surrounded by Fox news.

                1. Don’t sell yourself short. The right wing owns talk radio (figuratively not literally), dwarfing progressive efforts. The Wall Street Journal, Washington Times, New York Post, InfoWars, Breitbart, National Review. Given that most right wingers limit themselves to news where they are portrayed well, all the sources you named might as well exist in a vacuum.

                  1. “those who choose a side Democrats outnumber Republicans four to one, according to a new study of the media conducted by two Indiana University professors.”

                    That is from the Washington Post a left leaning news organization. If you search the net you will see even higher numbers of Democrats to Republicans, but I felt it would be easier to quote the news source from the left.

                    One can also do research by seeing the donations given by various members of the newsmedia. You can search that out for yourself if you consider yourself non biased. There is no question that what I have said is true.

                    1. I’m not making the case that there are an equal or greater number of right wing outlets or reporters. I make the case that of those that lean right, almost 100% of the news they watch/listen to is from readily available right wing sites, hence the bubble. The exposure they have to many of the things the right won’t report straight, is the rebuttal and distortion intended to nullify those reports. One can find real reporting in the early afternoon at Fox for example, after 8:00 the news goes out the window and the propoganda begins.

                    2. Actually enig, those leaning right have been shown in studies to be more knowledgeable on politics than those leaning left.

                      I agree that too many people rely upon news that agrees with their viewpoints. However, take note of the greater diversity of thought on the right than on the left. I don’t like either party, but presently support Trump because we have had very poor leadership in recent years and I don’t think our candidates on either side are the best we have to offer. I think Trump recognized that and decided to run.

      2. Comments made on obscure right wing blogs is not the same as comments made on big cable network shows aired on television screens around the world.

        2. Oh, I forgot comments made by the current President on national TV. Still waiting for the reports from those private detectives he sent to Hawaii with those “unbelievable things” they were finding. Also, comments made by a cable TV host aren’t the same as those made by the President of the United States and reported on all the networks.

          2. And let’s not forget who started the birther issue in the first place. That would be Hillary. Who started the Russia conspiracy? That would be Hillary. Who lost the election? That would be Hillary. Who is the 45th President of the United States of America? That would be Donald J. Trump. Damn it sucks to be Hillary.

            1. I’m thinking it sucks pretty much to be Trump. He’s walking around the White House at night and shouting at TV’s. His popularity is in the tanks and the multiple Russian investigations are circling Donald, his closest associates and now Jared. All his shady finances are about to get exposed. He’s doing everything he can, legal or not to stop that train but it keeps rolling down the track headed right for him

              1. Enig, actually considering the fact that Trump has to fight two parties he is doing pretty good and has already gotten a lot done. The economy is better, unemployment is down, salaries are up, illegal immigration is down and the border is being tightened. Virtually every day he is doing things that are important, but the news media doesn’t talk about that so unless you look for yourself you remain unaware.

                1. GDP has slowed and Trump really needs to quit obsessing on Mika and put together an infrastructure bill in order to avoid further slowdown.

                  1. I’ll quote left leaning CNN “But it’s undeniable that several key economic indicators have shown signs of improvement since the inauguration — and even going back to November right after the election.”

                    2. Of course it is true that if the President doesn’t produce things won’t go as well as they should. We saw things go very poorly under Obama because what he produced inhibited a growing economy and hurt the working class.

                  2. % growth and real numbers of employed are two different things. If job growth increases 1month to 1Billion new jobs and then the falls by one less job that means job growth slowed. Sort of a foolish way to approach the data.

                    The U-6 fell every month since Trump was elected.

                    1. Nonfarm payrolls increased 138,000 last month as the manufacturing, government and retail sectors lost jobs, the Labor Department said on Friday. The economy created 66,000 fewer jobs than previously reported in March and April. The June jobs report will be out next week but the job picture is not as rosy as you claim. The bottom is falling out in retail.

                    2. frankly, jobs are always in flux but total numbers can be viewed. Look at the U-6 and the U-3

                3. Everything you just gave Trump credit for was already happening and continuing to trend that way in the past administration. What exactly has he done in your opinion? Saved jobs like with Carrier who sent all those jobs to Mexico anyway after receiving millions of tax breaks from Indiana (Pence). He is deporting more people if you want to credit him for that but he isn’t slowing illegal immigration which was already at a negative rate. Where is any legislation he’s passed? Are we safer with a hollow State Department and him issuing threats around the world? What are we doing to prevent Russian interference in our elections which he barely acknowledges? Is our own foreign policy held hostage to his secret financial dealings? Time (and the ongoing investigations now focusing on the money) will soon tell.
                  Out of curiousity, why do you believe he’s fighting the Republican Party? I’m not saying it isn’t so, I’m just curious as to what you think that reason is? Is isn’t an ideological difference because Trump has no real policy of his own.

                  1. enig, Trump is not an ideologue. In fact on some issues in the past he agreed with the left. Things did not go well with Obama and you even saw a surge in employment once Trump was elected.Trump has removed a lot of regulations and that stimulates business. He is rapidly making the US an exporter of energy meaning dollars moving in, higher employment and higher salaries (Obama tried his best to prevent this from happening), revived the pipelines, started to restore the US as a power, got the Europeans to pay into NATO,loosened federal regulations on job-training programs, etc.

                    Obama screwed up foreign policy even though some of his thougts I believe were correct. He screwed up healthcare, placed us into tremendous debt etc.

                    1. The Trump trade is now over now that Wall St has figured out that Trump just wants to tweet and is incapable of passing legislation.

                    2. “The Trump trade is now over now that Wall St has figured out that Trump just wants to tweet and is incapable of passing legislation.”

                      What you are saying here doesn’t amount to any meaningful dialog. You don’t seem to have a grasp of what is and has happened in this country and you seem to play with bits and pieces placing things together that don’t make sense.

                    4. Yes enig and take note how long the U-6 remained up. It had to come down. Oct to Oct .3 decrase in 12 months. Trump victory Oct to May 1.1 decrease ( a substantial increase) over 7 months or about 4 times the decrease.

                4. It would be nice of the media to start reporting news and quit analyzing our President. Analyze themselves and tell the country things that have been done.

                  1. Good idea but hey are afraid they would be committed to a variety of options such as having to fire all the propagandists and pay for real jouirnalist, go through ethics morals and values training or dare i say it just committed. Assuming their establishment ruling class would let them so such a thing. I don’t have a lot of faith but then maybe somebody would see the niche with no one filling the job and start up a new business providing news ?

      3. If you were honest–truly honest, and I doubt that is the case–you would readily admit that Obama never, ever received the avalanche of day to day, horrid, contemptuous, vile, demeaning, disgusting–not to mention, threatening–remarks about his sanity and his appearance that Trump, along with his family, are bombarded with on a consistent basis. I’m not talking about various random comments, spouted on some blog, by unknown individuals–I’m talking about a full scale assault, daily, by the MSM, each and every day of his term, speaking about your savior, Obama, in vile and disgusting terms. It didn’t happen, and you know that it didn’t happen. Any television personality, daring to do so, and/or caught doing so, would have had his or her job vanish, like a fart in the wind. Careers would have been destroyed, in no time flat, with the accompanying death threats against that person or persons, foolish enough to have crossed the line of decency. Ever hear a celebrity, in front of a rabid crowd, after an election, marching against Obama–the duly elected President–calling for the White House to be blown up because he was now the President? Ever hear a celebrity call one of the sacred Obama girls mentally retarded or somewhere on the autism spectrum? Notice–I never said that no one ever said unkind things about the Obamas. Of course that occurred. There is free speech in this country. But, again, if you are honest, you will admit that during that eight year term, at no time were such vicious and disgusting remarks made by the MSM mouthpieces and levied at either Obama and his family. Never. The marches, the protests, the calls for death. . .it would have been unending had anyone foolishly dared to go where everyone now feels welcome to go with Trump.

        1. If you aren’t already aware of the “Viscous and disgusting remarks made by Hannity, Limbaugh, Beck, Jones and others on the right (often with bigger audiences) I’m sure I’ll never convince you. Obama got more death threats (you research it, you’ll never believe me). Admittedly Trump draws protests and marches from decidedly biased groups like women, the handicapped and people who don’t want their healthcare removed.
          For all of his haters, Obama wasn’t often condemned for having no clue as to the policies he advocated. The Obama girls didn’t go unscathed. None of them went around retweeting Neo-Nazi and racist memes like the Trump sons (and Donald Sr.) There are a number of things “if we were being honest” you’d admit that Trump actually is like misogynist, truth impaired and uninformed. The best cases against his misogyny is that he attacks everybody. Given the nature of his attacks that means he isn’t misogynist because he’s also racist and xenophobic?
          As far as celebrities, maybe Ted Nugent doesn’t count for saying Obama should “Suck on my machine gun” because he isn’t exactly A-list.
          Trump has inspired a never before seen level of disapproval but it has to do with his actions as opposed to any policies (primarily because he is clueless on his own policies.
          As far as places where “everyone now feels welcome to go with Trump” please define both “everyone” and where?”

        2. I made one misstatement in my response. The Secret Service says that the number of death threats has gone relatively unchanged despite the office holder (about 8 a day) over the last several administrations.

    4. Uh, let me get this straight…You think the President of the United States should comport his behavior to that of television shock-jock hosts? Really?

      This is to bam.

  14. Where was the media outrage whenever Obama went on the offensive? Or Pelosi and thousands of other liberal creatures who made conservative-bashing an art form?

    Witout liberal outrage, much less the conservative scum in Washington, for the way the press disparages the president, Trump will never roll over and play dead.

    If you want Trump to stop tweeting, you’ll have to first defend him against the outrageous unfairness of the press. Meantime, just shut your big fat trap!

  15. That’s our President he is what he said about himself. His honesty is commendable you kn how he feels. However POTUS gets a lot done.Now if Congress would catch up things would be much better. We are very unhappy with Congress not our President 🇺🇸#MAGA he will do it. Pls leave him alone & report the Real News (Truthfully) 🇺🇸

        1. I doubt there is anything anyone could say to convince you Trump lies without concern on a daily basis. His own contrasting statements on everything you’ll somehow justify and explain away. In a foolish attempt to prove what you’ll never accept. Pick any subject of your choice that Trump has ever spoken on and I’ll show you where he’s lied about it? Accept the challenge.

  16. Trump must be desperate to direct attention away from health care.

  18. Caught in all the lies and innuendo one by one so now from the Dums Trump is crazy and the diehard media poor us we’re the victims. The Dums have been taken over by the far far left progressives with nothing for the law abiding working American and media well they’re a joke. The Dums wouldn’t even support Kate’s Law or end Sanctuary Cities that’s how much they care for Americans or America.

  19. Disclaimer: I’m no fan of Trump. I voted for Bernie Sanders– Neither Trump, nor Hillary is fit to be POTUS, imo. A well-reasoned analysis by John Pilger: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=o1Ho8OrBzig

    That said, I have been studying comments on Twitter by Trump supporters and his critics:

    1/ Trump supporters are angry that corporate-MSM attacks him personally; makes nasty comments about his wife, his children & take pot-shots at his staff (e.g. CNN/MSNBC made crude remarks about Kellyanne Conway’s physical appearance)–and they feel that he is fighting fire with fire.

    2/ Trumps critics hate him. There is nothing that he tweets that they would give credit to– e.g. When he compliments foreign leaders; veterans groups; etc., the corporate-MSM ignores any comments that are okay.

    3/ Both sides are so bitter now– Trump because he feels that he won the election (he did, he won the Electoral College, that Hillary’s campaign planned to win–she thought she might lose the popular vote, by the way) but that he has been called illegitimate. Hillary’s supporters want a coup d’état: they want to destroy him, even if it destroys our country.

    Trump is his own worst enemy: in my opinion, he should ignore corporate-MSM shills like Joe & Mika, whose MSNBC show is ignored by most thinking people– they are not deep thinking analysts, they are entertainers who push Deep State/MSNBC propaganda. Trump demeans himself by paying any attention to them or celebs, for that matter. None of them are really important: they’re just mouths who will say anything for money & attention.

    The corporate-MSM has demeaned the important role of journalism in our country. In one sense, they are worse than Trump. Trump won’t last forever: he will either be pushed out by the Deep State-Oligarchy OR he’ll serve for 4 years OR he’ll serve for 8 years OR etc. However journalism matters. It’s vital for corporate-MSM to be broken-up. Increasingly, thinking people turn away from propaganda-outlets like CNN, MSNBC, the Washington Post, the NY Times, AP–etc. for it’s clear that they have failed us miserably by being willing accomplices for the Deep State-Oligarchy. They are so angry that Hillary Clinton–a law-breaker; a liar; and a traitor (study her pay2play with foreign entities and her Election Fraud, whereby she cheated to steal the DNC primary from Bernie Sanders)–that they are willing to lie to the American people about the fake RussiaGate=FakeNews story. That’s a tragedy for our nation– much worse than Trump’s buffoonery.

    2. Gadfly M, I too voted for Bernie and hope the DNC fraud lawsuit is successful. However, if Bernie doesn’t grow a set and endorse Tim Canova over that lying greasy headed DWS I am DONE.

  20. “Your mother wears army boots.” I guess that one is no longer offensive. So, “I know you are but what am I.” This goes so well with how Trump had his man’s man precede him into a room to make sure every one stood up when he entered. This was decades ago. The madness of King George, the insanity of the Austrian Hungarian royalty, and now this. If the Republican party doesn’t do something about this then they are complicit. This is an age old problem, to admit that the King is nuts.

    1. For decades anyone who knew anything about Trump knew that he is mentally dysfunctional. Voting for him was a statement that the US political system is equally dysfunctional and therefore it is appropriate to have a dysfunctional president leading a dysfunctional government. The rest of the world is in full recognition of those realities.

      1. Doglover,
        I’ve been following this blog for 3 years and I consider you among the handful here that are mentally dysfunctional. So you have that going for you.

      2. Doglover – not suffering fools easily does not make you mentally dysfunctional, it means you are a high functioning intellectual. Mika and Joe are fools, as are most of the MSM.

      3. You hit the nail right on the head. However, so sense in increasing the dysfunction by adding an idiot to the mix. Appropriate is one thing; the buffoon that is Trump is quite another.
