    Thanks for proving that you are nothing but a (*)(*)(*)(*) poor propagandist. That weak kool aid you pump out couldn't fly at a Stalinist picnic.
    They'd probably send you to propaganda school.

    Llamas assassinated his own character. Trump merely pointed it out.

    Another newbie trying the old Saul Alinsky playbook. Just keep repeating your lie. The facts are that Trump doesn't need your approval. We will counter your lies and agitprop. This will be a knock down drag out election.

    Exactly. Like how Hitlary was kicked off the Senate Watergate committee for corruption and influence peddling.

    Trump the con man fleeces the hicks and then the rubes actually defend him. Simply head shaking amazing. The problem is that when they finally wake up and realize they've been grifted they'll - with real rage - turn on everyone except themselves. Especially The Other. THEN it will be dangerous.

    I haven't offered any argument, m'am. I've merely stated facts, and watched as you break down in tears.

    First off, where did I defend Hillary ? All I said was that you have to hold the messenger accountable, no matter what the message.

    If they had the evidence, she would be in jail now. But again, im not defending her, i'm just using the facts as they exist today

    Trump is desperate.

    Anything to get his name in the news.

    I can't wait to witness his continuing meltdown over the Trump U. court case.

    Is that so?

    Show us where the ,money went. You claim that thee media lied about it. Prove it.

    - - - Updated - - -

    No, actually there isn't.

    In the minds of right wing media, there is, of course. But right wing media loves to repeat themselves, particularly when their claims have been debunked.

    This whole fiasco is crazy,
    the plan is and always has been to put Hillary in the White House.
    this is WRONG, she is a crook! WE THE PEOPLE need to protest this obvious subversion of the system.

    If you care about your country at all, write in Bernie.

    Fixed and betterfied!
    Their skivvies are soiled.
    C'mon man,that kind of ridiculous crap can only go on for so long ..
    As for the media.
    There hasn't been any real journalism in about 30 years.
    Here and there..not much..mostly they just fall into lockstep with the agenda.
    Dan Rather didn't.What happened to him,aye?
    Morly Safer?

    The irony and hypocrisy here are just too thick. Republicans have been using Alinsky's, "Rules For Radicals" since the 90's. The facts are you believe Trump doesn't need my approval. The facts are I don't lie, nor do I deal in propaganda. And you hope this will be a "knock down drag out election", because that is the best you can hope for.

    The truth is both candidates are flawed, but one more than another, that being The Donald. There are reasons why pundits didn't think The Donald would make it thus far. I always thought The Donald would be the Republican nominee, because The Donald knows how to speak to the right wing base just as Palin knew how to speak to the Republican base. But the unfortunate fact for you is the Republican base is a very small sliver of the American voting population. Only a few million people have voted for Trump. Trump hasn't even received a majority of the Republican popular vote. In contrast, Hillary has won a majority of the Democratic vote.

    Trump has been all over the place on the issues, flipping positions by the hour and by the minute. He's even worse than Romney was in that regard. But that's the norm for Republican candidates, because the Republican Party has become pretty radical and radicals generally don't win American elections.

    Going forward, Trump faces a very different kind of audience. We will see how is silliness and lack of discipline plays with the rest of America who are not Republicans. I suspect, it will not play well.

    I'm sure Trump will make it a very nasty campaign. It's what he does. It's in large part how he won the Republican nomination. We will see how that plays with a broader American audience in the days ahead.

    Clinton is winning against Trump in the mainstream polls, and I think this is as good as it gets for Republicans. Hillary is has a primary opponent. Trump doesn't. When Hillary formally becomes the Democratic nominee, she should pick up 70%-80% of the Sanders's vote and that will give her a huge boost in the polls.

    The truth is, a lot of the reporters and their media bosses are sleazy, especially with respect to national politics. The recent Katie Couric hit piece is a prime example.

    Journalism, as a noble profession, is dead.

    Trump was right, and the media should just admit it and not whine about it.

    Too bad the sleazy media has never taken PBS to task on their pledge drives. To them, it must work differently for Trump than it does for PBS.

    A prime example of the value of IGNORE.

    True. The media should not have assassinated Trump's character.

    How is Trump defending himself against a dishonest media juvenile?

    If that's what it takes, so be it. Long gone are the days when a simple correction worked. I learned quite a few years ago that if you want to get someone's attention, you have to get in their face. Subtle reminders don't work.

    The media has been like disobedient children. It simply doesn't work to point out the errors of their ways. You have to get right on them and hold them accountable in a firm, strong way. Unfortunately, they've gotten their way and been destructive for so long it will take more disciplinary action on Trump's part. It's gonna be a fun ride watching him hold them accountable for truth instead of spin.

    Exactly.

    Exactly. We, the People are sick of it!

    Trump responding in kind reflects upon him as negatively as those who assassinate his character.

    In part by assassinating the character of others as defending oneself against false accusations does not require character assassination.

    And I learned quite a few years ago that getting in someone's face is a good way to get in a fight as opposed to being calm and logically engaged in problem solving. Getting in someone's face is an effective tool for controlling the passive but against a competent opponent it is all but useless.

    Responding with personal attacks is every bit as juvenile.

    Which does not require character assassination.

    Trump calling someone a name is news? If you are not being called a name by Trump, then you aren't doing your job, because Trump will insult anyone who does not have their lips so firmly puckering on his butt, that they can't speak.

    To me, name calling is the habit of losers. And if your rebuttal to everything is not to debate and present facts, it is just to call people names, then you are not intelligent enough, or mature enough, to even work in fast food, let alone be President of the United States.

    The media got called out on their tactics and got their feelings hurt.
    Cry me a river.
    Maybe they'll go find a safe space to hide for a while.

    Wow! How much kool aid have you had? You must be swimming in it. Lib "facts" are not facts. They are half truths and lies twisted for their uninformed minion consumption who swallow everything hook, line and sinker. Libs are like the scarecrow----always looking for that brain, but somehow, never quite finding it.

    Why would Trump call Putin an idiot? He fawns over the dictator.

    The media accused Trump of absconding with funds and he gave them a full accounting. They were the ones that leveled the false accusations with no evidence to back it up and got caught red handed .
