Can you imagine what the MSM would have done if President Obama had said

[gopiscrap]

"This is an island" "Surrounded by water" "In the middle of a big ocean" ? We would have never heard the end of it....so help me God, the fucking press needs to start doing it's job and shame trump and it's supporters for letting this shit show happen!

Other nations must be both laughing their asses off at us and also deeply worried about what the hell is wrong with one of the world's most prosperous and powerful nations.

1. The media should mock him mercilessly

Some are already doing that; Rachel Maddow and Lawrence O'Donnell come to mind, but there are others.

"Big water. Ocean water." What adult talks like that? Okay, there's Trump, but who else?

[Ohiya]

11. GWB comes to mind

The decider!

[democratisphere]

2. The rest of the world believes that All Americans have lost their minds.

How and why did they vote for this guy?

[gratuitous]

3. Or if President Obama's schedule looked like this

4. the media is complicit. I do not think we will ever see mainstream actual journalism and

reporting again.

[RussBLib]

5. or how about a black guy waving a gun on stage like Roy Moore did

Sorry to crash the thread, but as long as you're on the "can you imagine..." line....

[Lucky Luciano]

7. Not crashing the thread at all. Most apropos. nt

[niyad]

6. AND not to blast him when he congratulates himself on what a fabulous job he and his

maladministration are doing in PR

[Volaris]

8. The media is doing exactly what they're supposed to be doing,

Which is getting PAID. Oh, they'll do exactly as you want them to, as soon as that's where the money is at, don't worry.
But until we get a Law on the books that says newsrooms have to be run as non-profit sections of Broadcast and Cable companies, they are for -profit corporate entities and so BY LAW they can't do anything that will COST their shareholders money.

9. Not happening. Drumpt is ratings gold.

[progressoid]

10. Or called anyone a son of a bitch.

[Cereal Killer]

12. Imagine what the media would have done

If President Obama had 5 Children by three different Women.

[George II]

14. Two of those women are immigrants!

[George II]

13. Puerto Rico is just 1000 miles from Miami, and it's NOT in "a big ocean", it's not in an ocean!!!!

It's in the Caribbean Sea.

[kimbutgar]

15. Remember how they squawked when Obama misspoke and said we had 57 states?

They never let that go. I got that little chestnut recently from a right winger I know when I spoke about how twitler talks incomprehensible at times.

[IronLionZion]

16. Trevor Noah suggested Trump use a translator like when foreign leaders speak

Or my preference would be since he's clearly not proficient in our country's official language, we must deport him immediately. I don't care where he goes.

[C Moon]

17. This thief in chief is getting away with a LOT a LOT a LOT.

[Skittles]

18. who was it who said on Twitter

the bar hasn't just been lowered for Trump, the bar is on the ground rolling around
