John Cornyn wonders why CNN, MSNBC, C-Span weren't covering trump's speech...

[George II]

It didn't dawn on the idiot to check Fox News (one of the "three cable networks" ), who ALSO wasn't covering it!

4. So it starts.

The Tea Party wannabe's are bitching cause their King is not getting free Campaign exposure.

Remember,it is being a given that all Media will cover GOP events no matter how scummy they become. Golly Gee Whiz,need a GOP investigation into why . Bill Barr will take care of that.

5. I'm happy to say the entire thing is getting rained out

Pittsburgher here - we're having huge thunderstorms and much needed rain, it's the kind where the roads will be flooding soon.

I had no intention of going to the Shell cracker plant to protest Chump, but props to those dedicated Democrats who did go and protest today.

6. The responses to Cornyn's tweet are 100% against him

I didn't scroll through all the responses, but the first 50 or so all took the Senator to the proverbial woodshed. Numbskull.

8. Hey, Cornyn!

Trump's speeches have become boring and repetitive. Even the fans aren't tuning in. Why should the rest of the country?

Trump must be insufferable to be around.

12. I Wonder

How misguided and clueless can the GOP get?

[maxrandb]

13. Why doesn't anyone watch the Paint Drying Channel anymore John?

Or the Grass Growing Channel?

John, maybe some of us have better things to do than watch a bunch of white racist, toothless hayseeds sitting around bragging about how good their sisters are in bed.

Maybe that's why no one gives one-fuck what this orange piece of amphibian shit has to say.

Maybe we all just want to scream...

He keeps not doing it.

15. Energy speech sounded like a campaign rally

MONACA, Pa. — President Trump criticized the media, mocked his Democratic challengers, critiqued the Academy Awards, lamented losing money while president and boasted of his poll numbers while visiting a construction site here to give remarks about U.S. energy production.

The president spoke for more than an hour, meandering between his prepared remarks and a campaign-style speech listing grievances and currying votes. He touched on his 2016 victory in Pennsylvania, his love of trucks, “fake news,” China, trade, immigration, the Green New Deal, windmills, the Paris climate accord, former president Barack Obama’s $60 million book deal, Iran, veterans and New York energy policies.

Standing in a room full of construction workers in the middle of the day, many wearing their fluorescent work vests, Trump urged them to support his reelection and to convince their union leaders to do the same ...

Trump told the workers that without him, they would be out of work, and subsequently complained that being president was costing him $3 billion to $5 billion ...

19. Every Trump speech sounds like a campaign rally...

[greyl]

18. Where are you getting that? I don't see it.

Manu said "None of the three cable networks or any of the three CSPAN stations..." and Cornyn asked "why?".

Fox is one of the three cable networks, and Cornyn didn't specify any networks.
