Prime-time Justice: Trump puts on a flawless show

It’s ‘The Apprentice, Supreme Court Edition,’ as Trump Summons Finalists to White House


Trump in Peak Reality-TV Form for Supreme Court Reveal

and more.

so, is it a good thing or a bad thing that the media is covering his antics and continuing to paint him as a tv personality? frankly, it sickened me, but is it the right thing to do--to reinforce that he is a tv personality and unfit to hold the highest office in the land?

(CNN)In the end, Judge Thomas Hardiman only drove a few hours east of Pittsburgh.
"The reality is that to the best of my knowledge he never left the state of Pennsylvania," White House spokesman Sean Spicer said Tuesday night after the announcement. "He never was in DC, nor did he ever leave the commonwealth."

Gorsuch got the nod at the White House Tuesday night, and it turns out Hardiman never made it to Washington.



Great "report" CNN!...
"Gorsuch is in Washington, according to one source close to the process. Hardiman was seen by a CNN producer leaving his Pittsburgh neighborhood Tuesday morning and driving east towards Washington".
