I hope all the hacks who had Trump on their programs are happy

When they asked him about the birther shit and he said he had nothing more to say, the interviews should have ended. It is the media who gave him a free pass on everything and who allowed him to lie 90% of the time.

NBC went to Trump Tower to hold it's Nightly News. He was allowed to spew lie after lie without being challenged. Dispicable.

Comcast stations are all Trump Central and as Larry put it at the WHCD Morning Joe Scum is so far up Trump's ass that we can see Chris Christie.

They are fooling no one - at least the CBS goons admitted that he made then a ton of money

The Republican debates and nonstop Trump coverage were ratings gold (they could sell tons of commercials).

They are hoping and praying for a Clinton vs Trump slugfest of paid advertising. And could probably care less about the outcome.
