Trump's buffoonery and pathological lying used to be cute for the media to mock as they cashed in it

but now it is putting the lives of Americans in danger.

The media built this by legitimizing this con man and now we actually have a real crisis on our hands but all Trump knows how to do is lie and whine on Twitter.

Instead of vetting this buffoon, the media was busy manufacturing a story driven by Russian state sponsored propaganda about Hillary's email server that was taken offline and achieved in 2011

Even now we have ABC, CBS, NBC, along with all the cable news channels trying to manufacture a story driven by Russian state sponsored propaganda about Hunter Biden simply to increase ratings.

Media do your fucking job and report on how dangerous Trump is, instead of trying to create a close election for ratings.

He often didn't even try to hide a grin after hearing some of his supposed bon mots.

I am going to say again that this isn't just Trump. We need to keep in mind his myriad enablers who are perhaps even more responsible for this mess than he is because they could have stopped this idiocy on day one, but didn't.
Remember Sean Spicer and the crowd size?
