MSM Gave Trump A Pass Again Today.....

They should have been shaming Trump for holding a campaign rally during a devastating hurricane that was ravaging Florida. They should have been making it a point that a president should be on the job and working with governors and mayors of the state during the calamity and not running off to some rally.

Instead they said that's just Trump being Trump and he is doing what his supporters think he should be doing - going to the rally - because we didn't support someone who was politically correct.

Again - instead of shaming Trump for his behavior - they normalized it - just like they do with everything that Trump gets away with.

....between the ravaging of Florida homes and flora while a campaign rally was happening elsewhere.

Both Brian Willams and Chris Matthews pointed that out.
