Discussion: After Crying 'Fake News' For Years, Sanders Is Getting A Party — Thrown By Reporters

Or as @josephebacon put it:

Worse than useless.

 

With the organizers’ names high-lighted.

 

Could not be more pathetic if they tried.

 

I’m pretty sure that was Tim Russert.

No need for that whatsoever.

You know what her next gig is going to be, and you know she will be paid a pretty penny.

President Donald Trump announced Sanders’ departure last week, adding a winking nudge that she should run for Governor of Arkansas. Sanders has reportedly been putting out feelers to consider doing just that.

And I can imagine a lot of folks would love to have her as governor.

Well, before condeming the whole DC press corps, let’s see who shows up.

shameful… it’s all just a game for them.

The Daily Mail is a bigoted rightwing British tabloid that’s currently trying to expand into the American market for some reason, and Politico is… the weird kind of quasi-trade rag that it is (though they have some excellent reporters and reporting). But if I read about anyone from the Times or WaPo attending I’m canceling my subscription.

I’m sure they’ll all go. Bygones! She’s just playing a role in the grand show that is “Washington,” and reporters are just playing their role, and they all look down on those shlubs out in the audience. Tire swing rides for everyone.

But only IF she gets out of that party alive.

This explains why America is truly an exceptional nation. It is just inconceivable to picture journalists in some foreign country whose regime’s propaganda minister has done everything possible to slander and threaten the domestic press, holding a party for him.

This story neatly fits into the thesis that no matter how bad things get in this country, no matter how much the rule of law is undermined, a big chuck of the press is determined to normalize it.

They’re not going to jeopardize their access, such as it is.

Will she be on the dunk tank? Where does the line start? Will tomatoes work OK?

I’m thinking a reception line, Huckabee Sanders at the head, and one-by-one the reporters come up and throw their drinks in her face.

Why does the phrase “no honor among thieves” come to mind?

A party, yes, but is she invited?

Maybe it’s really to celebrate that she will actually be GONE!

The party is for the reporters, not Sarah.

The 2 hosting reporters work for Politico, (establishment yawn-inducing tripe), and a British entertainment oriented tabloid. The idea that Sanders is now being expected to be reasonable and civil and part of some fantasied “solution” is asinine. It’s like when a destructive and execrable politician dies, they are suddenly deified, all the ramifications of the horrible things they did when they HAD power and influence are neatly excised from memory. Preposterous, I will NEVER trust Kumar again. I agree that the attendees list would be interesting (and indicative of the incestuous underlying problem) to see. Sanders screwed US terribly, the entire nation, with her incessant and blatant lies and refusal to hold press conferences with anything resembling regularity, what good will this do? Boost her pending chances to follow her nutbag father into the Arkansas governor’s mansion by somehow making her seem like a reasonable actor, someone acting in good faith? Jeez.

Do not forget Luke Russert who only got that job because his Dad endlessly kissed Republican ass.

If it wasn’t for Daddy, Luke would have struggled to master the meat slicer at Arby’s!
