"Are you still watching?"

I have my Youtube TV set on MSNBC. A few minutes into the Trump Virus Liefest, the audio/video went silent. Checked it out and it was locked into the watching?mode.

I thought.....I love smart TV's.

My hope is if enough of us do this, it will finally register with the program directors that covering this crap every day is detrimental to their ratings.

Morning Joe at the beginning of the second hour today... Joe launched into an epic angry rant (over the top for EVEN Joe) about networks covering the mandarin orange chicken only diet shit stain that stands at the podium and glowers at us for not sacrificing ourselves for his economy (and the only hope he had of winning a second term).

In fact, I'm boycotting MSNBC & CNN for 2 hours after they finish airing each dog & pony show.

...as soon as Chuck Todd was getting ready to switch over.

I will not watch MSNBC while Donald Trump is on the screen lying to the people.
