The Breitbart take on things.

I've been watching Breitbart.com to see how they handle Trump's really egregious behavior. From what I can see, they mostly ignore it. On the home page, the only story about his disinfectant device was a report on an MSNBC report. The main story today was about how Trump didn't take questions, but it could have been a story from cnn.com. I'm wondering if the far right isn't giving up on him? Or is Breitbart trying to change its image??? Has anyone else been watching?

... another of Trump's "it can't get any worse than this" performances. Again, nothing on Breitbart about it. I guess even they can figure out that there's no defense.

and boy was I shocked to see that they were actually carrying it! AND on the side panel of the screen listing total numbers of those infected and those who died. I kept thinking that their little heads must be exploding to find out that it was not a hoax like their dear leader kept telling them but a real medical crisis.
