sir! sir! enthuses Sean Hannity, tears of gratitude pooling in his eyes, no one has ever explained with such clarity how migrants are EATING THE DAWGS. sir! how do you do it? sir! sir! coos Maria Bartiromo, readying the Kleenex box for her inevitable torrent of tears. thank you so much for alerting us to the dangers of the radical Marxist Democrats who want to destroy America.
Donny hates being fact-checked. unfair, so unfair. thats why he turned tail and ran when 60 Minutes came knocking. its why he refused to participate in a second debate with Kamala Harris even when Fox New offered to host one. just yesterday, Donny canceled an already-scheduled morning appearance on CNBCs Squawk Box show.
which is why its surprising that Chicken Donny actually sat for an interview with Bloomberg News John Micklethwait a no-nonsense British journalist with zero tolerance for clownfuckery. when Donny shit the bed, Micklethwait was unafraid to point out that you, sir, are rolling around in a pile of feces. it was awesome to behold awesome and refreshing.

Micklethwait: Business people, the capital markets, they all like the rule of law. If you look at the events of January 6, 2021, it showed to many people Americas democracy was unruly and violent. With only three weeks to go to the election, will you commit now to respecting and encouraging a peaceful transfer of power?
Donny: Well, you had a peaceful transfer of power.
Micklethwait: You had a peaceful transfer of power compared to Venezuela.

We could break that day down into many different dishes, humiliation. And crimes, but it seems like we're the only ones who care.

(35,036 posts)He can't, and he doesn't think he needs to.
His intent was:
1. say whatever he wanted to say about whatever, topics be damned.
2. to be seen "standing up" to a journalist/smart person.
3. attack the press at large.

Well, we gotta get quotes from him, major-party candidate, big-ass pop-culture figure, dominates internet and all interviewers
and the free showcase madness drags on.
And pretty soon, viewers and listeners just become inured. Overwhelmed. Driven not to care that much anymore. The lets just get this OVER WITH crowd.
But with the donald, its NEVER over with. Never. And so few interviewers really take him on. Few follow-up questions. Few attempts to seriously question the shit he spews NONSTOP. I dont understand why hes even still a contender.
