You know how these guys feel about you as soon as you're done sucking their cocks.

If you're white, it comes off as either a skinhead or a chemo patient.

They forgot that Trump attacks when he senses weakness.

But I don't want a Range Rover. I want a vintage Triumph Spitfire and a live-in mechanic to take care of it.

And his rare freak-outs are kind of fun.

I can't believe that I am not being sarcastic by saying for that you want the hard hitting journalists at Teen Vogue.

Ah, Time Enough At Last! No worries though, the Old Man In The Cave will tell us what is safe to eat.

Yeah, California is rather expensive to live, but I'm willing to shell out more $ to live where rednecks don't rule.

Yes, it's the old "50 percent plus one is all I need" paradigm, except he didn't even get 50 percent.

... actually, I think the reason he's so pissed is because he can't really control the media spotlight they way he wants, and has been used to doing his entire life. Remember, this is a guy so desperate for (positive) attention, he impersonated a press agent to talk to the media about how great he was - and how even Diana, Princess of Wales wanted to sleep with the "superstar" Donald J. Trump. This still cracks me up - especially since the reporter at the time not only knew about the "ruse" but went ahead and printed the ludicrous claims anyway. Look how we've progressed since those heady days! < ba dum piss! >

... I agree. Although it would be nice if "stop trying to normalize him" was an option. Also, too "stop making excuses for every abnormal thing he does"... and that goes for his propaganda mouthpieces as well, who should be banned from appearing on the media platforms Trump hates so much. I'd call that fair and balanced.

... okay, "you're a cockeyed optimist". But that's fine... because I'd like to be one too. I mean, it's not like they have anything to lose by saying "enough of this pretending that Trumplethinskin doesn't present a clear and present danger to America and the world at large". He never going to love you, Media, even when you french kiss his flabby orange ass at every opportunity.

... not soon enough. I say, cut 'em loose now, and let their only appearances be interviews with Seth, Trevor, Samantha, Stephen and other smart, acerbic comedy/talk programs.

... yeah, I call CNN a lot of things, but not "fake" news. "Piss poor" news perhaps, even "lackadaisical" news from a journalistic standpoint, but no - they do not make shit up like, say, Fux Noise.
