The MSM is going to crucify him

After this speech. They have already started.

Since I can't watch multiple sources at one time, post what you are seeing right now on tv or online.

CNN: paranoid all out declaration of war. Couldn't have assaulted her....just look at her. Really.

Good thing he held himself up as a martyr. They just might grant his wish.

While the big news companies might have attorneys on retainer, many outlets cannot afford to deal with suits from The Donald. So they can use that as a reason to stop releasing any information about him at all - until his concession speech.

Ignore him. Don't give him air time televising his speeches and his every move. Don't make fun of him anymore. No more impressions or jokes about him. Just totally boycott anything Trump and let him stew in the fact that no-one is talking about him or paying him any attention.

Why dignify anything he says. He's a sexual predator and should be shunned in respect for the women that he has attacked both mentally and physically.

Claiming that since he was a big star, why didn't they attack him then.

I can think of a lot of reasons but the #1 thing comes down to $$ and fear.

Now about a man who has taken it to the lowest common denominator. It's about a man who even a six year hates and knows you don't touch a girl inappropriately.

Repug rebuts.....but Hillary

Called the dem supporter "Darlin'"

She objected. He said he was being a polite southern gentleman.

Woo, she is going after him.

bauer. Proof that a schmuck never changes its schmuckiness.

“My grandmother was not a highly educated woman, but she told me as a small child to quit feeding stray animals. You know why? Because they breed. You’re facilitating the problem if you give an animal or a person ample food supply. They will reproduce, especially ones that don’t think too much further than that. And so what you’ve got to do is you’ve got to curtail that type of behavior. They don’t know any better,” Bauer said.

declare war on the media (all of it, including Fox)...

after losing a "rigged election" on Nov 8th... start a new 24x7 "news" channel to get the "truth" to the people ( possibly internet only???)

Built in audience of 25M to 30M. Roger Ailes / Bannon / Hannity to run and star on it. All of these trump surrogates will be on to promote the propaganda with their own shows.

It would be nothing but NRA ads (if they even make them), men's hair clubs, and very little else.

They are the most gullible people in the nation. I think there would be enough advertisers for such a scheme to make money.

Regardless of the state of his business "empire" before this campaign, afterwards it's just going to me a smoking crater. The only play he's got left is to bilk monkey out of the suckers that follow him. He's finished as a "legitimate" businessman. Which really sucks for the republicans, because it means that base will remain unified and cohesive, rather than dispersing to wait for the occasional dog whistle, they'll remain a pack of rabid jackals, demanding red meat, lest they tear you to shreds.

Trump won't be successful suing the NYT.

Demonstrable track record holds up their claims as credible and will not be seen as liable.
