PBS Newshours - 3-13-20. Brooks "this is what happens when you elected a sociopath as president"

[Demovictory9]

at 2:10 but watch the whole thing. perfectly explains how awful trump is for the country

[DonaldsRump]

1. The difference between WWII and polio outbreak vs COVID 19

Is that you had great leaders and Americans like FDR, Harry Truman, and Ike for the first 2 issues

For COVID 19, we have a delusional narcissistic sociopath who is a liar. That does not bode well at all.

2. No doubt the man is diagnosable

DT is mentally ill: Antisocial Personality Disorder and Narcissistic Personality Disorder

10. Bingo

I still hear politicians and pundits talk about the need for Trump to rise to the occasion. Idiots. Trump is literally incapable of changing his behavior.

3. They brought up some good points.

[True Blue American]

4. Thanks for showing that.

We really need to watch PBS instead of the Commercial cable.

I sent that on for others to read.

5. I did last night at about 5 PM

and they were showing the weather in Japan (I didn't investigate why) so I switched stations since I was looking for school closing news.

6. I have to say Mike DeWine

Is actually doing a good job. He was booed off the stage after the Dayton massacre. Supposed to come up with a great gun law but when the camera goes off Mike is gone. If he passed a bill I never heard of it.

7. I trashed this thread. The title states that tRUMP was "elected". He was not. He was ratfucked

into office...

[Indykatie]

8. You Did See That the Thread Title is A Direct Quote From Brooks, Right?

[abqtommy]

9. Yup, I saw that. You could have identified it as misinformation, right?

[2naSalit]

13. It's a quote that is identified as a quote in the title...

[DinahMoeHum]

11. ". . .does the stock market reflect well on me. . ." LMAO !!!

This was the week Mister Market, his companions Dow Jones and Mister Russell, Mother Nature and Lady Karma, collectively gave Trump and the GOP the big fat wet middle finger and a vote of no confidence.

12. Trump calls to defund PBS in 3..2..1..

And Brooks is the so-called conservative!

[Chainfire]

16. It just goes to show

That a person can consider themselves to be politically, socially, and economically "conservative" without having to put their brains on ice. What he said was the God's own Truth.

Our crisis is equally one of leadership and health.

14. Looks like Mr. Brooks

finally woke up and smelled his ass on fire. That was a whole lot of humble pie for that dude.

It's about time.

[edhopper]

17. Brooks has always been anti-Trump

yes he is a conservative dunderhead, but he has always been critical of Trump.

[Chainfire]

15. Thank you for the post

That was one of the most intelligent conversations I have seen since the beginning of the crisis.

18. They wanted destruction. Now they're living in it.

I sure hope they're happy.

[Coventina]

19. Go fuck yourself, David. You brought this upon us

you miserable asshole!

Your constant toadying to the authoritarianism in the conservative wing is what enabled Trump and his cult.

Don't try to be precious about it now.

Just shut the fuck up and let the adults clean up your mess.

[Piasladic]

20. Amazing to watch

Thank you for posting this. I rarely catch TV, but I sometimes tune in PBS for Shields and Brooks. I missed it this week, so thanks.

It's the intellectual/non-hypocritical republicans (rara avis) I sort of get, but that's not what we're dealing with. I worry that too many people are so emotionally invested in this shyster that they will never be able to admit they were wrong.
