Trump fucking giving a fake-ass town hall - something straight out of Fox News

[piechartking]

General Flynn is fucking asking the questions, and Trump answers. It is unreal how fake and scripted this is.

And MSNBC actually playing it like it's a legitimate town hall. This is like a straight-up Goebbels, propoganda, Fox-news fake town hall.

1. Who is the MSNBC reporter covering it?

[piechartking]

3. I don't know who's on at this hour anchoring n/t

[kennetha]

2. True but even in this fake format, he gives us stuff to hang him with

He can't bring himself to say a bad word about Russia. Sounded as if he wants an actual allegiance with Russia.

[riversedge]

4. He did say that.

[Skidmore]

5. Where did they get the audience?

I watched about 10 minutes and felt physically ill. It's a con on vets. It promotes more war. Do these people want more tours of duty? I checked back to see him say something about our guys wanting to blow someone out of the water because they were gesturing at them. This is a sick man.

6. Flynn is doing all the work on this and Trump sits like a dope just shaking his head. n/t

7. A fake town hall with predetermined softwall questions

all to give him an opportunity to give predetermined answers which he has practiced so he can stay on script without reading a teleprompter. His campaign is resorting to strange tactics to deal with a difficult candidate.

Classless PS which anyone with brain can see through.

[Divine Discontent]

8. So this lack of substance passes as free advertising-worthy news?

Then Hillary should do the same thing, which will be light years better. There's no reason Drumf gets this other than it'll get ratings of his obsessed followers.

9. Did I just hear him say veterans should be able to select their own doctors

"including WOMEN"?????????????

[Va Lefty]

10. Ailes perfected this shit fifty years ago

" Nixon called on Ailes to serve as his Executive Producer for television. Nixon's successful presidential campaign was Ailes's first venture into the political spotlight. His pioneering work in framing national campaign issues and making the stiff Nixon more likeable and accessible to voters."

11. give him enough

Rope and he'll hang himself

12. What you wanna bet it is a dry-run for tomorrow night's Commander-in-Chief Forum on MSNBC?

Practicing giving scripted answers. Talking to supposed military families. Sounds like that's what it is to me.

[piechartking]

13. that's exactly what it is.

But he doesn't practice on real pros, just lackeys like Gen. Flynn. Hopefully Matt Lauer has some semblance of journalistic self-respect and doesn't embarrass himself trying to keep it "equal" and "balanced".

Ugh.
