Or they could just not cover any politician who isn’t serious about helping Americans…
but that would be the entire GOP field…

Really? I wonder why?

Hasn’t HuffPost become a gop/bag rag?

Being a “sideshow” and polling first or second in the Republican race is not a mutually exclusive situation.

This is just going to incite republicans more. Bad idea in my opinion. This will also make Trump even more popular and legitimate in the eyes of republicans because a lefty blog won’t cover him as a political candidate which he is whether anyone likes or not.

they should cover the whole GOP clown show in the entertainment section…

There’s a Comedy section over there, but then he’d be competing with smarter and funnier comics.

I gave up on reading Huff Po ages ago.

This is a bad move on two fronts. First,Trumps candidacy reveals volumes about the Republican electorate (important news) and secondly, he is not the least bit entertaining.

Anything we can do to keep Trump in the race is a big plus in my book. Let him burn and pillage the GOP brand to his heart’s content. The establishment hates him because he truly does embody the heart of the GOP platform and soul.

The dog whistles have become sirens.

His,“leading the field” refers to an entire field where no one has significant numbers so why pretend at this point he’s any more viable than Pataki?

Exactly right. As Faux News viewers continue to age, the GOP will have to pump up the volume to keep up with their hearing loss.

Huffington Post Plans To Cover Trump In Its Entertainment, Not Politics, Section

That’s great!! I can hardly wait for some Donald Trump “side-boob” pix.

Yes. Sooner or later, they’ll have to write about that first debate, at which Trump will be present along with the other candidates. Will they cross-post the articles? Write two separate articles?

Failing the side boob. . .

Could we even hope for a moment to witness something similar to that at the Army McCarthy hearings in the Senate years ago when Joseph Welch attorney for the Army went after Joe McCarthy.

“Until this moment, Senator, I think I never really gauged your cruelty or your recklessness.” When McCarthy tried to continue his attack, Welch angrily interrupted, "Let us not assassinate this lad further, senator. You have done enough. Have you no sense of decency?

I’ve been waiting for that for a long, long time. Angry? Oh, yeah. We’re there.

Going to take different emotions. Maybe people just aren’t ashamed, embarrassed, horrified enough yet.
