President Trump: The NEW one and only politics thread

Same as it ever was.

On Nov. 18, 2015 I did not know where or what Mar-a-Lago was. I want that time sector back.

 

My first post was about a chryon, which IS a de facto headline. It was NOT about the reporting based on the chryon.

I do not expect the HEADLINE (or chryon, same thing) to say "Delusional flat-earthers to hold meeting" or "Flat-earthers to hold meeting on our spherical Earth."

 

The fired official said the claims were baseless. This isn’t The Media injecting its bias. Try again.

 

Put the word in quotes, then. That's how you do things.

 

Civil war from the klan that loves the traitors in the first civil war.

 

Very fine people on both sides, huh?

 

Who is “We”?

 

"We" need to stop electing charlatans. Seems a very simple antiviral. And it will all go away ... like a miracle.

 

OK, today Trump tweeted there were more votes cast in Detroit than there are eligible voters. This isn't "baseless," it's a flat out delusional lie disprovable by 30 seconds on Google (1.4 million registered voters in Wayne County, a little less than 900 K cast). Should that be called baseless in a chyron or simply lie, which it is.

 

This won't be such a shitshow of a coup attempt next time. Republicans I know are saying "Yeah, Trump lost, but it's good he's exposing all the massive holes in our election system."

Trump's efforts this time will fail. Next time, though someone will exploit the "bad election system" seeds planted now, and that candidate won't fail.
