I think the much stronger option would be to run a better Republican against him. Don’t try to break it with Dems, try to break it with moderate Republicans.

Sorry but if they choose to stay behind, then they should be paying their own poeple. NO WHITE HOUSE = NO MONEY.
My point was an open handed swat to the tuchus is not at the same level as a punch to the eye. Which seems to have gotten lost in translation.
Chaffetz has such a hard-on for Trump, it’s embarrassing. I’d put real money down that he’d totally slobber all over Trump’s knob if he asked. It’s that obvious.
And if you physically prevented an adult from leaving their house at 2 A.M., it would be kidnapping. And if you took away an adult’s possession as punishment because you didn’t like their attitude, it would be theft. On the other hand, if you refuse to give food, shelter, or medical care to an adult, you haven’t done…
The health insurance industry has a very effective plan in place to deal with this issue. Their plan is simple - everyone gets health insurance when they’re healthy. The minute they become unhealthy for anything except an extremely temporary thing, like say a broken arm or whatever, they kick them off insurance. …
He doesn’t even need to do that. He’ll just grant exclusive interviews to news media that is favorable to him and freeze out media that is not. They won’t be allowed on Air Force 1, to attend press conferences, etc. When people complain, he’ll bully them and essentially say “you’re next if you keep complaining.” …
As a member of the print media ... we are dying.
I don’t want to be all gloom and doom, but the bottom is falling out of the industry financially. Advertising is flat lining. Subscription costs literally just cover the cost to get the newspaper to your door.
We would love to save y’all, but most people seem satisfied…
Why these media people continue to suck up to these maniacs in order to get access is still inexplicable and bizarre to me. It’s all a sideshow. Watch it on the internet if you want to see the video/interactive part. Otherwise, just research and write some Goddammed stories!
Life in this country will never be same. Never.
When he had that “off-the-record” meeting with journalists that consisted entirely of him throwing a tantrum about how mean and unfair the press is, several people who attended said it was very clear that he doesn’t understand the 1st Amendment at all. He gave every appearance of truly believing that once he’s…
That was bad and unethical, but that’s not what “fake news” means. Conservative media is deliberately using the term in an overbroad way to render it meaningless and obfuscate a very serious problem. We have to stop helping them.
He is absolutely aware of that.
If he refuses to answer a question because doesn’t like the outlet, the next reporter he goes to should ask the exact same question or defer to the one who was ignored. I would love it if the press stuck together these four years and not roll over for this piece of shit.
Um, he is aware that “punishing” news media is against the 1st and what a complete and total Fascist would do?
I don’t know - I think we’ve reached the point where we need to start distinguishing between “fake news” and “shitty news.” CNN is “shitty news” without question, but not “fake news.”
We are officially about to have an authoritarian in the White House. I feel dramatic saying this—but it’s actually fucking true.
I guess I worry that CNN will deal with this by bending over backwards to make him like them, and not by doing what they should: trying harder to discredit him.
He’s not wrong. CNN proved they were fake news by putting Corey Lewandowski on the payroll and having a paid shill for Trump constantly legitimizing him on their network. Jeff Zucker is partly responsible for this.
