I can't understand why reporters are still being nice to this POS

Thousands are dying;?why aren’t they nailing him every time he crawls out from under a rock? I flashed on an experience I had years ago after I saw an old man get run over and killed. It was the first time I’d ever seen a human killed. I ran into a friend of mine, ex Vietnam soldier, and told him about it. He said after awhile you are just glad it wasn’t you.

I guess they have mortgages, too, plus if they storm out their editors will just send eager beavers in to replace them.

From other sources. They would. Actually, truth and facts don’t come out of the Cretin’s mouth at all anyway.

Reporters show up in large part because of the tradition of respect for the office and the intelligence and leadership of past presidents. This jagoff has none of that.

Deny this needy, narcissist imbecile his daily sociopathic self-aggrandizing ego fixes. Don’t show up. Don’t broadcast.

Hit his monstrous ego where it will do the most damage.

I was crossing the crosswalk the other direction. That was about fifty years ago and what I remember is how quiet things got after the loud bang and her winter hat floating away with the breeze. I don't know if she lives or died. She was laying in the road not moving. I ran home.

I remember thinking if I was shooting a cow it’s exactly where I’d place the shot. I knew he was dead before the EMTs got there. At least he didn’t suffer.

Somebody ought to jump in his shit, bigtime!

"Why in the hell are you lying about that"?

"Don't you know that isn't true"?

"Don't you realize there is video of you saying the exact opposite"?

"Why are you such a lying asshole!"

For better or for worse. These reporters want to retain their own jobs in this uncertain environment.
