Too true. I think this is the comeuppance that we as a society have reaped from the constant tribalism. It made someone like Trump almost inevitable.
Yep. Maybe 48 hours at the most. If he goes a whole week without making himself and by extension our government a laughingstock, I’ll be stunned.
And you guys hand-wringing over his Tweet is the perfect example of how some people can’t be bothered to actually follow the media because it’s so much easier to get up in arms about a Tweet. To wit, your post. None of that applies to Rucker as a reporter.
You’re paying the Washington Post for Rucker’s Tweets? Why? Maybe you should avail yourself of the place where he actually dispenses news. You know, if you want to talk about how Rucker “deals with Trump” as a member of the media.

Soledad disagrees. :P
The idea of a “new Trump” is idiotic.
There is no new Trump. There will never be a new Trump.
There is only Xul.
It’s Trumples all the way down, folks.
Anytime Trump gets all the way through prepared remarks without veering off into incoherent attacks on random unrelated parties is considered a triumph. He talked about Afghanistan and he didn’t defend Nazis or talk about the orgies his super-yacht-owning friend had! Truly Presidential!
I’m being completely serious when I say that I truly believe Dwayne Elizondo Mountain Dew Herbert Camacho would be a better president.
Added bonus. According to Politico they were in Kentucky to view the gold reserves at Fort Knox #letthemeatcake.

NPR: Phoenix Prepares For Possible Unrest As Trump Holds Campaign Style Rally
JUNG: Last week, the mayor of Phoenix, Greg Stanton, asked President Trump not to visit the city, but the administration is moving forward with the event and planning trips elsewhere, including Yuma, Ariz., and later Reno, Nev. In a prerecorded statement, Mayor Stanton said he’s disappointed President Trump is holding this rally while the nation is still healing from the violence that erupted this month in Charlottesville.
Phoenix Mayor Greg Stanton wrote in a statement Wednesday he was disappointed to learn of Trump’s visit so close to the violent events in Charlottesville. The mayor called on Trump to delay the visit.
“If President Trump is coming to Phoenix to announce a pardon for former Sheriff Joe Arpaio, then it will be clear that his true intent is to enflame emotions and further divide our nation,” the statement said.
Ahead of President Donald Trump’s visit to the Valley next week, a group of bikers are once again offering up protection to his supporters planning to attend the event.
“We’re not here to start anything,” said Jim Williams.
Williams is with Bikers for Trump Arizona. He says their goal is simply to make sure the people who want to come see and hear the President on Tuesday can do so comfortably.
It’s sort of a volunteer protection service they’re providing.
“We don’t want anybody hurt, we don’t anybody intimidated or anybody to stay away from the rally because they’re afraid there’s going to be some violence showing up,” Williams said.
In all, he is hoping for a couple hundred bikers to show up at the convention center for the campaign rally style event Trump is holding. On a personal note, he told us he was excited for the President’s return to the Valley and was looking forward to hearing what he had to say.
There are times Trump reminds me a bit of Harry from the Boomer Bible.
Rucker is not why people hate the media. In fact, I’d argue people hate the media because people like Soledad O’Brien and a handful of you guys would rather talk about a person’s Tweet than his excellent investigative reporting! Sheesh.
EDIT: Yep, there goes that Rucker fellow again, demonstrating how the MSM enables Trump! “One of the most idiotic things I’ve read”, indeed.

Trump must be absolutely livid that he can’t fire McConnell.

I’m like 85% sure that he came into the Presidency thinking that he could.
