Why do I get the feeling that the latest "revelations" about Trump are always things we knew months ago and discussed

For example, the fact he was a Hitler admirer. It was reported months ago and posted on DU that Ivana Trump had said that Donald had a copy of Mein Kampf by his bedside.

Likewise, the comment about wishing his generals were like Hitler's was reported months ago. Suddenly its resurfacing because of the recent Interview general Kelly gave and people are acting like its new.

The media and this country by extension has such a low attention span, its pathetic.

As soon as it came out, it rang a bell so I did a quick search, and sure enough. It even looks like it might be the same conversation.

Agree that our attention span is low, but our memory seems to be fading, as well.

Multiple posters in one thread wanted to know why John Kelly never speaks out. Uh..he has. Repeatedly.

People even seem to have forgotten that Kelly was the source of the "suckers" and "losers" confirmation and that he did a CNN interview last year, confirming many of the other claims and conversations and throwing Trump completely under the bus.

Has been revealed, discussed here for years … many of us , yourself included have been here since early 2000’s and 2016 and on is past info.
Most of the really bad news on the Pisswig gets picked up by MSM and fades away soon after . History is being rewritten as that time goes by.

Sadly I believe nothing will change until that monster is dead and gone .
Sad isn’t it
