Flipping Between MSNBC & CNN This Morning And It Looks Like Some Of The Talking Heads Are.....

[global1]

giving Trump a pass on his comments of yesterday.

It seems like Trump has this act down pat. He makes an off the wall statement and then just sits back and listens to the talking heads make excuses for him. Then he chooses the excuse - that one of the talking heads suggested he might be doing - that makes him look good - and goes with that as to why he did something.

I don't think that he has a clue as to how he'll get out of some of the situations that his mouth gets him into - but he lets the MSM create a scenario with which he could live under and then goes with that.

It's presidenting through media analysis.

The MSM keeps making excuses for him. They keep normalizing his actions. And he just coasts along on his merry way patting himself on the back for the great job he's doing.

The Repugs love this too - because they can hide behind the normalization of Trump by the MSM.

What scares me about this situation is that he always tries to make Obama look bad for the decisions he's made during his Presidency. Trump was really critical of Obama's Red Line comment on Syria.

Trump - yesterday - drew a red line. As Trump always does what he thinks Obama should have done - will Trump make good on his 'fire and fury' comments that are essentially a Red Line that Trump used.

1. NK crossed the red line within an hour...

[SHRED]

2. Maybe they actually fear his foolishness

And want to minimize his heated rhetoric?

3. He didn't come up with that Truman quote on his own

That ignoranus is incapable of quoting any historical reference on his own.

Somebody fed him that shit, wound him up, and sent him before the cameras.

4. Gorka, Bannon, Stephen Miller....take your pick.

6. Of COURSE he didn't come up with it. It bears the clawmarks of little Stdvie Miller.

8. Gorka, Miller and Bannon.....they have his ear a lot more now

that calmer heads are gone.
He was checking that "fire, etc" phrase, looking down at the script.
At least we know he can read.

unless they just drew him a pic.

5. Chuck Toad was Johnny on the spot yesterday with the apologies.

"Isn't it possible that this is a strategy?" he asked a guest. Everyone else saw it for the lunacy it was, but "ever the contrarian, beltway insider, I look at things in a way the rabble never could" Chuck had to be the first out there with the illogical view that flies in the face of the obvious.

7. Don't forget ALL the free time

they gave Trump. They helped elected him for ratings. They will have blood on their hands soon.

Listen to smart podcast. VOX world, lots of others to get living thinking analysis.

9. I'm seeing something different

Most talking heads I saw think he crossed the line and most guests on agree it us not useful bluster and undermines our diplomacy efforts.
