This group of people being concentrated in any campaign for public office should serve as a Tsunami warning to any rational person.
Sadly it will not dissuade a single tRumpeteer from voting against the eventual Democratic nominee.
Iâm pretty sure this guy is an unpaid member of his staff alsoâŚ
There should beâat a maximumâabout 10%-20% of the population in favour of Donald Trump. We all know why this is not so.
I submit that there are ways, within the parameters of American culture, to deal with the challenge of outvoting Trump in the General Election. From animating youth to energizing single white women to reaching out to Republican white women to blue collar workers.
And more
Each of these challenges poses specific and unique strategies. For example, concrete ways in which infrastucture refurbishment could revitalize workers (like white workers) beg for strategies. What I find ASTOUNDING is the fact that, during WWII, with no personal computers, social media, television and other gadgets, the United States confronted and dealt with diverse and complex problems much more difficult than dealing with Donald TrumpâŚWe can do betterâŚand, for ME, the first thing is to more intelligently deal with the MSM.
The MSM is not on the side of the people right now. They are making too much money. Fine. Dealing with the MSM requires more than handwringing. Weâve only got a few months. Any suggestions are welcome. In fact, MY first suggestion is to ask Josh âwhat to doâ.
How is it that Manafort is able to be interviewed by (supoposedly) respected members of the beltway stenographer corps without these being the primary topic of the interview?
I assume he must have some kind of tacit agreement that these subjects will not be brought up. At least I hope so, although I really canât determine which would be more contemptible: that such a âtacit agreementâ exists or that thereâs no need for it at all.
I thought my contempt for American-style âjournalismâ could not be greater.
I was wrong (but sadly, not surprised). The few exceptions, such as Mr. Winship, never seem to be the âA listâ journalists, sadly.
And donât overlook the parenthetical mention of Tad Devine. Bernie, you are known by the company you keep.
Anyone who employs these sleazy operators is unfit to hold the office of President of the United States - I donât care what party they claim to represent.
Does Hillary have people of this ilk on her staff as well? Inquiring minds want to know.
So, now I think of Trumpâs campaign being run by Uncle Duke of Doonesbury.
Right now, you have hit on one of the agents of American repression. It is important to understand that the American mind is extremely independent and freedom loving. Rather than opting for Gulag imprisonment as mind control, the MSM concocts ways (wedge issues, âraceâ, faux outrage, fear and uncertainty, info-tainment, ânewsâ as a for-profit business, etc.) for people to self enslave.
Self enslavement is much more permanent and effective than externally enforced enslavement.
Heeeeereâs Donny!

Are these the guys to help Rump convert the Republican Party into the party of workers? I swear I just heard that claim yesterday.
If Trump were to win the Presidency, it seems like we would be facing a Teapot Dome Scandal on steroids in no time with this bunch of bandits at the helm. Trumpâs intelligence and reliance on crooks seems to be on par with Harding and his buddies he brought with him to the Oval Office.
Wow. These creeps have a good chance of rehabilitating the reputations of Cheney and Rumsfeld before itâs all said and done.
Does Elizabeth Warren know all of these facts? Seems to me that she has an excellent podium for delivering the message on Trumpâs corrupt staff.
Without MSM on our side, the hill is steep. They talk about emails and Hillary speeches instead of explaining the deals in this article. Are they too difficult for the media to understand?
TPM did not report on the over reported over hyped emails and we are commenting on this Winship article. So are we preaching to the choir? Even after Romneyâs campaign most people cannot explain or even understand what an equity capital company does-totally destructive to jobs and the economy.
So what do we do? Obama with his high ratings does clearly talk to the media when asked. E.g. Answers to questions on the emails. He is always criticized for not communicationg effectively, particularly on complex topics. E.g. Trade agreements. Media never once asked Bernie what he meant by his never explainied stand on trade aggresemnts. Yet the issue worked to his advantage. The same could happen for Trump, with his shady business goons running the show.
We always say it is the job of the opposing candidate to bring the issue up for airing. Hillary, the falsely maligned candidate is expected to do it with the media on her back.
âa kleptocratic goon, a pig who wouldnât take lipstick.â
Priceless.
You touched on part of the problem. Too many aspire to a life of being popular and the center of attention, being constantly entertained, and not having to think too hard.
usted se preocupa demasiado 
I have no doubt after all the dust settles and HRC is the nominee we will win MSM be damned
You can be sure she knows
Priceless. Thanks for the belly laugh
This, sadly, lends credence to that nagging feeling Iâve had that Trumpâs end game is to put is âbrandâ on the Presidency, âThe Trump AdministrationÂŽâ, and charge âlicensing feesâ to anyone willing to pay.
She is locked and loaded, her itchy finger on the trigger!
