I'm shaking my fists at the screen right now, watching Adam Hodge get bitchslapped by that mouthy Repub bint Sarah Igur Flores. FFS, Adam, give SOME back !!! Very disappointing. Dems are too f*cking dainty with these repetitive Rep liars.

misogynistic POS. He really is. I can't stand his condescending holier, know it all. And Deutsch agreed with him. I was thoroughly disgusted.

he just humoring him to see how this all plays out? I can't imagine that any respectable head of state thinks that he is anything more than a huge joke that they can manipulate toward their will

They have to humor him just because, but behind his back they are making jokes.
They have to be polite or otherwise they are afraid that he will bomb them.

He lost the popular vote.

He rejects all the precepts of liberty and Americanism.

He wilfully copies the techniques of Hitler and Mussolini.

He plans to trigger a global tariff war on the scale of the tariff war that compounded the Great Depression.

He wants to "register" immigrant Muslims, deport undocumented millions, nationalize the failed stop-and-frisk policy against African-Americans, revive Bush-Cheney's torture policies, renegotiate the national debt (which will trigger a global economic melt-down), target the innocent children of terrorists, concede eastern Europe to Russia expansion and hand over Syria to Putin.

But yeah, that's the new normal now.



I need to read some Langston Hughes. I need America to be better again.

The media, with their mischaracterizations and lies were a big part in trump's victory.

I refuse to be a participate as a viewer in their sorry excuse for "journalism". It doesn't exist. It is gossip, innuendos, rumors, anything to incite, facts are not important.

They can all go to hell as far as I am concerned,. They are contributing factors that are making America a hellish place with the way they covered this election, and news in general. Half truths, and distortions. Except for Knight Rider, they were willing accomplices in our invasion of Iraq based on lies, and are responsible for over a million deaths. They also will be responsible for a lot of the suffering that is likely to occur in the next 4 years because of their shoddy reporting
