Isn't interested in having Trump removed from office. If they were, they'd remind the viewers everyday that the President has already been implicated in a felony that he should have already been removed from office for.

He has a family history of Alzheimers (father), there are videos from the 80s where he can speak & reply when asked a? in the minute, he can only do word salad now.
This is awful& no one in the media is brave enough to say it in public.

Which one didn't? CNN? MSNBC? Fox? Did you watch "all" of the "MSM" so you know no one didn't? Are you counting the WaPo and NYT? USA Today? NPR? Reuters? AP?

Who, specifically, is letting you down?

What does it matter anyway? The important part is that IT WAS ALL LIES, AND IT'S ALWAYS ALL LIES. not that he reads those lies without conviction or care.
