Would someone finally answer a question about something Drumpf says with “what, you think I care what a guy with Four Bankruptcies has to say about my economic plan?”.

Whether you are a Hillary supporter or a Bernie supporter or any D supporter, you just gotta love this guy.

Or the TPM version:
"Well, we´ll cover every absurd thing that Donald Trump says, if we have to spend the whole website doing it.¨

Reminds me of good old Barney Frank when he said, “Ma’am, trying to have a conversation with you would be like trying to argue with a dining room table. I have no interest in doing it.”

was asked to respond to Republican presidential candidate Donald Trump’s comments.
and this is what passes for political journalism these days – hurt feefees… it’s all about ginning up these idiotic comments, hopefully provoking a snippy response… that can be run endlessly on a loop until the next day’s snotty tweet.

There is value in covering everything Trump says. Imagine being the Republican Party and not being able to make your id shut up.

Bernie is a gentleman, Trump is not.

Well it’s so much easier than researching whether or not the person you’re reporting on is actually telling the truth.

I read TPM a lot less these days. I’m fed up with the propaganda. Not only does TPM report every damn thing Trump says, they also report every act of gun violence they can find. TPM ignored Bernie, then reported on him when they could say bad things about him. Now that they think he couldn’t get the nomination, they finally report on him fairly. Gee, pushing gun control, ignoring Bernie – Support Hillary much?
After a while the outrage porn just wears thin and I just want to go take a shower. I started reading TPM when it was just one voice with enormous journalistic integrity. Now it’s just a tabloid in internet form.

Anyone with the slightest knowledge of what a communist advocates would instantly know that Bernie bears no relation – another bit of evidence that T-Rump is ignorant as a bag of lint.

Bernice’s too dignified too get into the mud with Trump. It’s funny that the Republicans can’t do the same.

TPM did ignore Sanders, and I can’t tell you how delighted I was when I saw him at the debate. Loved him! 
The problem is that Sanders isn’t electable, Clinton is. The fact that TPM focuses on the one solidly electable candidate is not a surprise. Sanders function at this point is to keep forcing the discussion onto the high ground, the moral ground, and I think he knows that. He’s a great (and positive) foil, but it isn’t realistic to think he’ll rise to the nomination.

Oh, I know it needs to covered, but when they make 7 posts out of one speech, they seem to be milking it a bit.
