guys, we have been here before. he delivers a normalish speech, media declares he's presidential

[La Lioness Priyanka]

a few days later his real self emerges, and he's back to being a raging incompetent malicious white nationalist.

I'm not saying that criticism of the media is not undeserved or necessary, i'm just saying don't get overly stressed over this.

the real DJT will emerge within a week.

1. It was all a big act. Bannon is happy today!

5. Happy? They're peeing in their pants with glee.

Van Jones got suckered. So did Tweety. From the reports around the net, they were the TWO media stars who gave Trumpy the legitimacy of a saint. It's amazing how powerful their musings have become. Out of 330 million people, TWO media stars appear to have changed the zeitgeist. Is there a media oligarchy? Does the air cool off at night?

2. I heard no real softening of any of his policy positions...

to the extent you can fathom them out of the bullshit he spews.

Fact is, it was a fresh coat of paint on a rundown whorehouse.

3. For sure.

He didn't even mention that so-called "path to citizenship" that he spoke about in the meeting with the news anchors yesterday. Instead, he went with VOICE to target even more immigrants.

4. He pulled this a couple of times during the election

He can't help himself, though. He'll tweet shit again and that will be that.

6. Graded on the curve, plain and simple

Anything better than complete 100% failure is seen as a positive

[Bradical79]

7. Here's my recommendation

Take a little bit of time and make a few tweets, or write a letter, to someone like Van Jones who you saw make an ass of themselves, them move on. Real change happens with real work, not being angry at media pundits that people don't actually listen to. While Van Jones is a celebrity for his position, I'd be shocked if more than a couple of my family members had ever heard of him, much less actually be influenced by anything he says

8. He read a speech

Steven Miller wrote.
Just words.
Koko the gorilla could have signed it out.
Now they think he's all "presidential".

[alarimer]

9. They're trying to put lipstick on a pig.

And there isn't enough to cover Trump.

[Rene]

10. Shouldn't Ivanka be POTUS.

Didn't he just READ her prepared speech like a 4th grader.

[kimbutgar]

11. I remember when they did this with bush

[mcar]

12. True

The media still desperately wants this to be a normal presidency. Twirler will bask in the glow for a bit then be back.
