Always left wondering with those two kids.

Is it Gorilla Glue, Elmers or Titebond for that hair style.

It just demonstrates how little they understand about how the world works, and that they think anything that might intrude on their world is a betrayal. They can’t comprehend that journalists offer to talk to people all the time, and that sometimes people will talk back to them…it’s probably their greatest fear that one of their employees will go to the press and share all the shenanigans going on.

Don’t bother quoting Rumi, Eric. We know exactly who you are. Dumb is a hard thing to hide.

It’s actually Dumber and Dumbest.

How is it possible that Eric’s eyes are getting even smaller and meaner?

And came together to form a giant village of idiots…

LMAO…when I was writing stories about a certain county commissioner critical of his perfornmance, he called me up and said the exact same thing.

I remember being amazed that these guys are surprised that reporters are quite aware they’re being lied to.

I blame the Internet.

Or the Law of Unintended Consequences, one or the other.

With the scruffy beard he starts looking more and more like a Neanderthal.

Trump’s don’t like reporters contacting their employees to be sources, but they had no problem using stolen emails published by Wikileaks.

Trumps, always taking the least ethical path.

Screaming “fake news” at the top of their lungs is the crux of their 2020 electoral strategy. But the more they yell that at the media, the more we realize how professional most members of the media actually are. This, like the Alabama affair, is a self-own.

Alabama’s so tired of Trump talking about them, they’re ready to go back to talking Roy Moore. All they were ever at risk for was a good wind, not unlike a meal at Mar-a-Lago.

I have to say, before I even read the responses, my own reaction was: “Wow, that seems really professional, I didn’t realize that what journalists do can be so straightforward. I’m glad I finally got to peek under the hood.”

Eric’s a dullard, just like his worthless siblings, who we all know take after dear old Donnie.
