It is unbelievable just how much Bloomberg has actually legitimized trump. [View all]

They have slowly been moving in that direction, and it is sad and disappointing.

This morning when discussing Trump's comments about NATO, their characterization was they were simply "controversial" statements, nothing more.

WTF. Trump is calling on Putin to attack our European allies.

There was a time when statements like that would have doomed a candidate, and the media would have called him out as the threat he is to our democracy. Instead, they minimize his outrageous behavior as acceptable.

There is no doubt that trump not only wants to destroy NATO, but wants Ukraine to fall.

That so much of our illustrious press lets those defenders and apologists of trump go unchallenged, is a disgrace.

It is no surprise that trump's polling numbers are higher than they should be, and much of that lies at the feet of our media, and, their lazy reporting.
