I am really sick and tired of the MSM [View all]

Speaking about this guy like he’s a rational, grounded, knowledgeable individual who has any concept of reality, cause and effect, protocol, or a relationship with facts.

On every, and I mean EVERY network, station, and broadcast, the moderator will make a statement such as the following, “President Trump will be meeting today with so-and-so to discuss the policy and ramifications of such-and-such. In the past he has demonstrated that he has a hard-line approach toward the blah blah and we will have to wait and see what he decides to implement following the meeting, given the complexities and the personalities of the various (heads of state/governors/senators/CEO’s, etc.) involved in the process.”

This is a guy who can’t complete a single sentence without wandering into a senile self-aggrandizement, who has no grasp of history, technology, science, or even human emotions, who regularly sharts himself voluminously, and who has little or no connection with reality, to say nothing of the body politic. The notion that he could have a rational discussion with anyone about anything other than ordering Diet Coke is absurd. It’s like explaining alternate side of the street parking regulations to a cockroach.

I have spoken!
