The Most Dangerous Man in Politics



Rick Klein: “Donald Trump is the most dangerous man in politics today, with his unlimited funds, overall showmanship, and disregard for conventional political and even human rules of interaction, coupled with his threat to bolt the Republican Party if things don’t go his way. But in dragging the campaign show – 100-odd reporters following around the white baseball cap that came out of a 1980s golf pro shop – to the Texas-Mexico border, Trump looks like he got what he wanted yet again. The focus was on immigration and the border, not on disparaging comments about Sen. John McCain’s service, or even Trump calling anyone a ‘loser’ or a ‘dummy.’ If you needed yet another exhibit in Donald Trump’s capacity to dominate the media cycle – and more on his terms than not – the images from the border, white hat and all, should suffice for a while.”

Trump has the power/money to remove The ED Show & replace it with Chuck Todd in a Prime time Tv slot.

As Todd seemed excited at the way Trump is seemingly untouchable in his campaign, a sort of enigma, I do wonder if Chuck was "chosen" to provide Trump with his own media show.

Todd would do it in a heartbeat for the paycheck. And Trump knew who his go-to-guy would be.

Chuck the lackey found a forever friend
ugh
