President Trump: The NEW one and only politics thread

Apparently it's not as bad as this. It seems Kurtz is just bad at quote-tweeting, and so he "re-tweeted" this guy's tweet by pasting it as his own tweet, and then followed up with his own thank-you tweet.

So while it's ham-handed, the sock puppet theory doesn't seem to be true. Sad!

 

Howard Kurtz, the guy that got fired by The Daily Beast for lack of journalistic ethic?

 

I think he manually RT the original tweet from @TheOfficialABCD and then added "Thanks" to the beginning of it.

Trust me, I'd rather believe he's that big of a moron, too.

EDIT: Dammit, @Pete beat me to it. HE'S YOUR FIRST VOICE OF REASON.

 

WHAT ABOUT VINCE FOSTER

 

Conservative backlash: "Fox News BAD!"

Fox News hosts ramp up ‘deep state’ conspiracies

“The network is increasingly engaged in a misinformation campaign aimed directly at the American people for the purposes of sowing confusing and spinning a web of protective armor around the president, who is being investigated,” said Steve Schmidt, the Republican political strategist who ran John McCain’s 2008 presidential campaign.

Schmidt, who is also an analyst for MSNBC, said he’s noticed a marked shift on Fox in the past week, as commentators have ramped up their attacks on institutions, like the FBI, once sacred to conservatives.

“This is not normal. Not healthy in a democracy,” he said. ...

Jennifer Rubin, a conservative columnist at The Washington Post, noted to POLITICO that the points being made on shows like "Hannity" and "Fox & Friends" echo those being reportedly pushed by Russian bots on social media.

“When they turn on a dime and begin adopting the same position as Russian bots and start attacking the FBI, we’ve gone to a whole new level of crazy,” she said.

“It’s almost like Fox has become the RT, the Russia Today, for the administration and the Kremlin,” she added.

 

Good audiobook listen for a long ride.
I am so obsessed with this garbage lately that I listened to two hours of it this morning while painting.

 

Vince Foster was raped? That needs multiple investigations too!

 

The Bulletin of Atomic Scientists moved their "doomsday clock" to 11:58 p.m., its most ominous setting since the '50s, and we're still having national conversations about the vanquished Hillary Clinton and Vince Foster.
Maybe run a new play for once. This one usually goes for no gain.

 

You're clearly on the spectrum, so things like nuance, humor and irony are a foreign language to you.
It's not your fault if you don't understand. I've seen you do it before and things like "Dickie's act" scud over your head.

 

Chaotic, corrupt, incurious, infantile, grandiose, and obsessed with gaudy real estate, Donald Trump is of a Neronic temperament. - David Remnick

 

Fart, I understand what you are trying to do quite well, which is why I am so often amused when I see you fail. Sadly, this is not one of those time s that I find amusing.

Your response here is not only incorrect, it is offensive. It is disrespectful to people with real mental disabilities, including those who are actually on the spectrum. This is disgusting even for you and I hope you have the decency to express regret and learn from your latest failure.

 

Just more #FakeNews.
