Members Vee Posted August 30, 2018 Members Share Posted August 30, 2018 It was amusing watching contrarian Chuck Todd - who's never quite left his snide ways behind despite some good moments - ask a largely black, bipartisan panel (including Michael Steele) if DeSantis deserved the benefit of the doubt or 'guilt by association.' He got slammed down pretty fast, particularly by Steele. Meanwhile: 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members DRW50 Posted August 30, 2018 Members Share Posted August 30, 2018 I read that even Faux News distanced themselves. Yet our heroes of the Beltway are still trying to remind us why we should support Republicans. They would do anything to help Republicans win. It's just sad. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members DRW50 Posted August 30, 2018 Members Share Posted August 30, 2018 I've been reading the Sessions stuff and I'm just amazed all over again at how much influence Trump has over the GOP. Sessions was one of their good old boys, both in Congress and in the conservative movement. Now, day by day, more and more of them are happy to toss him to the side, humiliated and defeated. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Vee Posted August 30, 2018 Members Share Posted August 30, 2018 I do enjoy Sessions being humiliated on the daily. But oh God, the times are so much more dangerous, and that includes both men. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members DRW50 Posted August 30, 2018 Members Share Posted August 30, 2018 I saw an article yesterday with people from Pence's college days that reminded me again how terrified I am of him becoming President. http://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-6107325/Mike-Pence-believes-person-save-Donald-Trumps-soul-new-book-claims.html 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members DramatistDreamer Posted August 30, 2018 Members Share Posted August 30, 2018 (edited) Referring to a member of the media as an "enemy of the people" is very Trumpian language. Edited August 30, 2018 by DramatistDreamer 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members marceline Posted August 30, 2018 Members Share Posted August 30, 2018 I don't want to see any journalist harmed but I can't help be think how the press treated Trump as entertainment for clicks and views. They didn't ever think that they would end up in his crosshairs but they sure didn't care about the people he targeted all through the campaign. Like so many others they thought he would only harm those people. They thought the violence would never touch them. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members Juliajms Posted August 30, 2018 Members Share Posted August 30, 2018 Yes. Also, I think some of them thought they could ride the ratings wave, but he couldn't really win. I remember they were being accused of pretending the race was closer than it was just to keep people interested, but really they were underestimating him the whole time. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
