WTF is wrong with the media? Michael Cohen wont flip?

If the president is innocent what would he have to flip about? Media seems to gloss over this point. It’s like the elephant in the room. Everyone knows Dotard is guilty of myriad crimes but the idea of “flipping” and Trumps crimes are unconnected. Can’t they call out the obvious?

Twitler never would have been elected. They seem to have unending patience when dealing with him. I don't get it.

Yeah, MOST in the media are as patient and delicate with Fatso-In-Chief as they'd be with a 5 day old infant

I get that MOST in the media are corporate sorts, and that they have an "agenda." But wow, I can remember seeing that hack Andrea Mitchell carp on and on about Hillary's emails almost on a daily basis, and even after the election was over she still spoke on them friends tell me who can stomach watching her. Yet, you have at least 6 or 7 advisers in this current snake pit known as putin's White House using private email servers like they're eating candy, and like I said friends tell me who can stomach watching Mitchell tell me that she's said NADA. NOTHING. ZILCH about THEIR continued use of private email servers. Mr. 666 Jared Kushner lost much of his security clearance, yet isn't HE still using a private email server? Same goes for Ivanka using a private email server.

I couldn’t figure out why, while living three time zones away from the nation’s nerve net, I could immediately see Trumpy’s exposure, while the nerve net itself couldn’t detect a criminality admission as it stared them in the face. Reid seems to have broken the silence that took on the characteristics of a gag order. That Trumpy has mountains of crimes to hide, even as many of them are in plain sight, speaks of general media indifference and moral ambivalence.

But the Golden Globe Award for Enabling and Acquiescence MUST be awarded to the GOP in Congress. They went beyond common limits to say nothing, look the other way, and blame the victims. Take a cowardly bow, GOPers!
