(7,768 posts)They are calling trump out like NEVER before.
Pointing out, correctly, that Trump's behavior and rhetoric would SINK anyone else.

One, maybe Donny, even went so far to ask if Trump was looking to act like a dictator given his ignorance of the limitations of executive powers.

(1,352 posts)they are finally seeing that Trump in office would be the worst thing that could ever happen. They just finally might be realizing that they themselves are afraid. The more they hear from these Generals, Admirals, etc. it is finally beginning to "sink in."

(5,842 posts)Donny called every Trump supporter who backed Trump's
statement re: Putin being a strong leader "morons".

(7,768 posts)Chuck Todd said, Trump's lies are like "flak". He throws out the lies so fast and furious, it's an overwhelming distraction to divert attention.
Jesus, I've NEVER seen anything like this.

(14,537 posts)I never thought his bromance with Putin was funny. Nor the bromance of dead intern Joe with Trump. Chucky Todd? Isn't he the one that said fact checking was not his job?
It seems they are not happy with the Trumpenstein monster they created. Once again it is up to the citizens to drive the Trumpenstein monster out of town. Only we can use votes instead of torches and pitchforks.

(58,785 posts)hope the credibility to the general public of all these corrupted MSM "insiders" will be severely damaged by all this. They stopped serving the public interest a long time ago.
When AP can and does post bald-face lies to influence an election...

(10,419 posts)Mike Barnicle even seemed sad that Gary Johnson was the one so publicly shamed over Aleppo, since he didn't think Big Orange knew what it was either.
Donny can hardly control himself. Mika is going to need extensive massage therapy from constantly shaking her head.
Morning Joe comes on at 3am Pacific, but I make a point of watching as they have some people who aren't afraid to call the Pukes out on all their sh*t.

Mika pointed out that Trump says Putin called him "brilliant" but that's NOT what Putin said. Putin called him a bright and shiny "object". There's a BIG difference and tRump is interpreting it WRONG.

(12,591 posts)Rachel had a piece on it. She said Putin had clarified what he had meant. It also means "colorful." It does not mean genius, which is how Trump interprets it (surprise!).

(3,286 posts)...that had Clinton and Trump within a couple of points of each other. Maybe they all thought it was time to quit playing around.

(61,697 posts)Maybe she was going to say "Donald Trump" and switched at the last nanosecond so it turned out Drump. In the next sentence she clearly said "Trump."
I bet she has a few nicknames for him that she dare not say on air.

(14,568 posts)so the hit Johnson hard yesterday and are piling on Trump, after doing what they could to drag Hillary down the last few weeks.
EV_Ares
(6,587 posts)is how the media & I include the MJ show in that is how they pile on about that & for how many months now have allowed Trump to get away with saying anything, ignorance on anything, not knowing anything about foreign policy, etc.
Remember how Mika & Scarborough even went to Trump's Tower or office, did & interview & of course Trump heaped praise on them back during those days they were so in love with the guy. Has everyone forgotten about that?

(202 posts)For example, see Eric Wemple's Washington Post article from Dec 2015:
https://www.washingtonpost.com/blogs/erik-wemple/wp/2015/12/10/the-many-times-donald-trump-and-morning-joe-yukked-it-up/?utm_term=.e9663360cd9c#comments
Now that the relationship has soured, they are calling him names, just like he called them names. I don't see how that is helpful.
I am waiting for them all to acknowledge their part in this mess we are in. They will have to do a great deal more to repair the damage they have caused than jump on the anti-Trump train at this late hour. How about specifically fact checking all those phone interviews they let him do? I would also suggest early retirement and having real journalists fill that time.

(6,096 posts)even when Joe comes back. We must made this known to some "of the people" who are voting for Drumpt.
Some will never vote for anyone else, but we all know that this man needs to be kept out of the white house.
My God what will he do with NO ONE WORKING FOR HIM.....
