meat to the bone", some jackass said on MSNBC a few moments ago. On CNN Frank Luntz pushes the same bullshit.
What a double standard setup by our media.
Has anyone in the media asked for the "details" from trump? They accept his rambling James Joyce stream of the subconscious blathering with zero, zilch follow-up.
The brain dead economic forum in NY that trump appeared at when asked about the expensive cost of child care answered so clearly, "well child care is child care", how about those tarriffs I will impose, money will be pouring in like raindrops"
followed by applause from so-called wall streeter "experts" at that forum.
What a twisted, sick country we live in where what's right is portrayed as wrong, and what's wrong is portrayed as what's right.

(6,074 posts)Women have to be damn near perfect, men just mediocre. I say that as a slightly better than average man. The same goes for the standards for Democrats versus Rethuglicans. They always expect Democrats to be the "adults in the room" and hardly ever expect the same from Republicans.

(6,074 posts)"Where's the beef" - LOL- that one takes me back to my youth. The GOP's constancy about tax cuts for the wealthy and for businesses, regardless of the current economic conditions, is as predictable as the sun rising in the east. I remember when Jack Kemp was considered a conservative with new ideas and they mainly turned out to be the same old shit with a different name. Same goes for Paul Ryan, the erstwhile golden-boy and media darling. Old wine in a new bottle. And screw the media for playing this game.

Trump can be Lawless, per Corporate McPravda.
Just like Justice John Roberts said it's supposed to be.
