President Trump: The NEW one and only politics thread

CNN has gone from "s***hole" to actually putting "shithole" on the chyron.

No word if they had an internal debate about going with "shit-hole" or "shit hole" instead of one word.

 

Can a place that has a leader who practices Poin be that bad?

 

Pretty shocking numbers for a president with a good economy. Oh, and more people give credit to Obama than Trump for the good economy, by a 49-40 spread.

 

This is a watershed moment. I'm not kidding. Got to be the first time that a network has consciously aired profanity, right? Obviously, there have been several examples of profanity getting on the air, but putting one of the seven dirty words (in an earlier era) in print/type on the screen via conscious decision rather than spontaneous outside speaker? Strikes me as new.

 

He's moving beyond the dog whistle. His base will love this.

 

You guys, I'm starting to think Trump might be a little bit racist.

 

I could be wrong, but I think some outlets aired the unedited and uncensored Access Hollywood tape.

 

You're nothing if not predictable.

 

Well, CNN is cable and thus not subject to FCC language rules. But SNL has used “shit” numerous times in the “safe harbor” timeframe. “Piss” has long broken through, so it may be that Carlin’s list will soon be cut to five.

 

Am I wrong? Do you think the "fine people" who carried torches in Charlottesville will be outraged by this comment?

 

That doesn't mean it's not true.

"Finally, someone had the guts to say it!"

"Was anything he said not true?"

"Why don't YOU move there if it's so great?"

and the always-appropriate...

"Why do you hate America?"

 

Interesting. I'm not saying they're right or wrong. Just wondering if it's a first. Access Hollywood could very well be the answer.
