I tweeted to MSNBC that I found it unfair that they would run video of trump calling

dem candidates nasty, rough names . I told them it’s unfair and sets a horrible precedent. My tweet alone probably won’t change anything, but if lots of people tweet, email or whatever, maybe they listen. Worth a try!

Just like Twitter and FB, they're never going to stop airing that crap. It brings in ratings and ratings bring in ad revenue.

Don't waste your time.
