The Fake News Media is giving @KamalaHarris a free pass despite her Radical Left failures and very poor run in the Democrat Primary. There was nobody meaner or more condescending to Slow Joe, not even me, and yet she quickly evaporated down to almost zero in the polls. Bad!

Very poor morning TV ratings for MSDNC’s Morning Joe, headed by a complete Psycho named Joe Scarborough and his ditzy airhead wife, Mika, and also @CNN, headed by complete unknowns. Congratulations to @foxandfriends on dominating the mornings (thank you President Trump!).

Almost every day I am astonished that the President of the United States gets away with shit like this. Calling out American citizens by name and calling them ditzy airheads and psycho. Unbelievable! If Obama had done that, there would have been constant calls for his head on a platter.

Every insult he comes out with is true for himself and his cohorts, family or not. That means Dolt45 is the psycho with the ditzy wife.

Based on the responses and "Likes", I don't think many of his fan base read his Tweets.

I don't usually read them, either (though I do get a kick out of reading the Democratic responses -- they are funny), once in a while I'll Tweet him something. I went there today to see what Morning Joe was talking about.

You know, it's a part of the official record, or something like that. Imagine historians reading those Tweets a hundred years from now! lol, that's got to be the job to have -- a lot of those Tweets from Americans are absolutely hilarious!

Sometimes I wonder about the WH investigating and tabulating some the Tweeters. You know make an enemies list. They could mess with your life without you even knowing why or who's doing the messing around. That thought is what keeps me from misbehaving too badly, lol. Donald is vindictive enough and he'd find that fun.

From now on when I read his Tweets I'm going to imagine which response is yours, lol, and I'll "Like" it, too!

Also, pretty stupid, as Joe stopped and looked at the camera, addressing Trump directly in real time. Told him to quit watching Morning Joe, indicating it wasn't good for him. Mika got her two cents in as well. They showed a life shot of the White House as they razzed him about his reactive Tweets. It was like torturing an injured animal.

They've done this before. Trump should know better by now.

and it dawned on me when I wrote it. Guess I wasn't the only one! I almost always refer to our future president as "Joe", so guess I'll have to start saying "Joe Scarborough" when talking about Morning Joe.

finally lifted their faces out of trumps ass and felt the wind shift beneath their feet. I remember 2016 and their show is all I'm saying. I WILL NEVER TRUST Mika and Joe like I trust say Rachel.

In fact, I avoid mainstream channels altogether
unless it's for an event I really want to see or
know about..

.. like yesterday's speeches. I actually learned
a lot about Kamala that made me really like and
appreciate her.. Biden too!

What I like about Biden is that he has seriously
evolved as a decent, more liberal person.

What I like about Kamala is that she is a true
liberal!

Go team!!!!
