Trump does his worst to unite a country reeling from right-wing political violence.By Eric Boehlert
In the wake of deadly political shootings and bomb threats, Trump now wants to hold a rattled nation hostage, suggesting that the violence and threats will only stop if the press changes the way it covers him.
There is great anger in our Country caused in part by inaaccurate, and even fraudulent, reporting of the news, Trump tweeted first thing Monday morning. The Fake News Media, the true Enemy of the People, must stop the open & obvious hostility & report the news accurately & fairly. That will do much to put out the flame of Anger and Outrage and we will then be able to bring all sides together in Peace and Harmony. Fake News Must End!
Incapable of showing empathy and compassion during a time of national crisis, Trump is continuing to demonstrate that his hatred of the press far outweighs any anger he has at right-wing domestic terrorists who have unleashed their violence over the last week.
The message, even by Trumps non-existent standards, is stunning peace and harmony in this country is only possible when the press changes how it covers Trump.

Donald J. Trump--aided and abetted by the Republican party--is a terminal disease that is killing everything good about this country. We are weaker day by day because of the poison spewed by that monstrous thing. The cure must begin on November 6, 2018. the alternative is too awful to contemplate.

(65,058 posts)The coverage isn't close to harsh enough for the stunning incompetence and criminality.
And, we all remember HRC's economic plan speech being cut off 8 minutes early so CNN, MSNBC and others could show an empty podium for 14 or 15 minutes.
They have much for which to atone, and the coverage needs to be harsher, not more forgiving.

Ted Lieu is on CNN a few minutes ago discussing the call for immediate hearings on hate crimes.
Pointed out that Dems had called for hearings after Charlottesville but ReTHUGs were only interested in hearings about Hillary's emails.
CNN female idiot - people are interested in those.
Me- screaming at the TV - which fucking people?

(65,058 posts)Malaise said it was the CNN anchor person. So, what would she care about the people who watch Faux?
That's why it's even sillier that she said that.

(12,504 posts)we hear about in the news, when we so clearly need one right now?
We've got a 239? pound hate filled reservoir of fat and cholesterol that keeps waking up every morning for a new round of name calling and hate spewing. It won't just die and go away.
I'm beginning to think all this doctor advice to eat healthy and exercise is a load of crap.

(10,252 posts)I'm not afraid of Trump. I survived a tornado, and I can damn well survive Trump's potty mouth. And BTW my mind is calm and peaceful and so is my home. I refuse to let Trump's degenerate chaos darken my mood.
May the dark ignorance of sentient beings be dispelled.
May all beings enjoy profound, brilliant glory.
