So you don't have to ...

... I've got Trump's "rally" on in the background.

He's just spent the last fifteen minutes trying to un-do the damage done by his remarks after Charlottesville, explaining how he immediately took such a strong stand against the KKK, white supremacists and Nazis - but the "dishonest media" wouldn't give him credit for doing so.

The crowd is eating it up - natch. Now he's on about how CNN (which is "failing" ) fired Jeffrey Lord because he was trying too hard to get the truth out to the public.

It's now fifteen minutes since I started this post - and he's STILL on about how his strong stance against the KKK/white supremacists/Nazis was ignored by the "fake news", and how we should all be "united" against "dishonest journalists".

Now he's plugging FOX-News as the "real news" ...

The man is a raving lunatic. He is not a president.

Now he is hinting that he is going to pardon Arpaio.

I can watch a press conference because I like seeing him looking like he's having a stroke, but not something like this.

not a debate, nor policy speech, and not the state of the Union

so why is it televised? just to record the rants of a madman?

... the IQs of people attending this rally, you still couldn't come up with a collective number above that of the average moron.

Now he's talking about the importance of "Made in America" products - and the people wearing MAGA hats and tee-shirts with "made in China" labels are cheering.

Idiots.
