President Trump: The NEW one and only politics thread

Hannity is “influential” as a bogeyman. That’s it.

 

No sorry. The political equivalent of sports talk radio drives the direction of your preferred political party.

It's why death panels were a thing in 2009. It's why Uranium One is a thing. It's why Benghazi was a thing, right up until the day after the election. Real unemployment numbers. Workforce Particiation Rate. Mustard-gate. Donald Trump as a politician.

GOP candidates in nationalized elections have to pay lip service to these issues on the campaign trail to service the plurality of GOP voters who believe the things Sean Hannity and Rush Limbaugh say.

Again: Apologies for pointing out reality.

 

You’re making an imaginary argument.

Now do Al Sharpton and Obama.

 

I don't doubt that they talked.

QYFW is saying Hannity doesn't have the president's ear.

Of course he does.

 

Also, this.

Government by talk show.
