    Weird, I thought appeasing fascists made them stop attacking you.

    Nice job, ABC. Guess that merger was worth losing all your credibility, huh?

    Beyond this being another obvious step towards a bastard combo of 1944 and 1984, I’m once again faced with the same question I’ve had for the last decade: how the fuck can anyone hear this guy talk and think “yeah, that’s a leader”? He has the temperament and vocabulary of a pissy 5 year old, the memory and general cognitive performance of a dementia patient, and the ideological consistency of a magic 8 ball.

    MAGA are genuinely the stupidest group of individuals that have ever collectively organized.

      how the fuck can anyone hear this guy talk and think “yeah, that’s a leader”?

      Rich geriatric white business goon is the archetypical American Bossman. Guys like him are everywhere, especially in the scloratic journalism industry.

      MAGA are genuinely the stupidest group of individuals that have ever collectively organized.

      They hate their current system and they don’t seem to care who gets hurt tearing it up.

      You can call that stupid. You can call it angry. But it’s horrifyingly effective.

      Meanwhile, smug posting liberal hecklers and don’t-rock-the-boat centrists are at least as stupid. And “The Left” - such that it exists - is either too terrified or too feeble to fight back.

    I’m going to keep sharing this until people understand what’s going on: Narcissist Collapse

    If you give him even the slightest pushback, he freaks out. The thing is, we need to keep pushing and pushing without letting him yell “Fake News!” or call a reporter “nasty.” Keep pushing and he’ll melt down.

    “She’d probably go after people like you because you treat me so unfairly. It’s hate. You have a lot of hate in your heart.”

    The narcissism here is incredible - taking a question that is essentially about the United States Attorney General suppressing our supposedly most cherished protected right, and making it about his own “oppression.”

    Listening to this traitor speak is just exhausting. WTF is the hottest country in the world? This isn’t Zoolander you twat. We are all miserable and the cost of living has skyrocketed since you got into office.

    I hate that people actually believe the shit he says.

    The reason I wouldn’t call myself a free speech absolutist is that I don’t think people should have the right to intentionally lie and mislead people from a position of authority.

    The reason this is relevant is that I cannot think of an example of hate speech that is truthful. And the reporter’s question was about whether Trump viewed hate speech as free speech.

      Lying for political gain should be just as much a criminal fraud as lying for financial gain.

    I’m really starting to think that rumor of him having some type of medical episode or something is true because he is lashing out to anything and everything compared to his first term.
