Great discussion just now on MSNBC

[madaboutharry]

Nicole Wallace along with Eugene Robinson, Nicholas Confessore (NYT), Charles Sykes....

Translation: He read a statement written by someone else. He has no empathy for other people. He spent the plane ride not tweeting about the victims in Las Vegas, but picking a fight with NBC and the media. He doesn't care about people or their suffering, He is only comfortable when he is raging about something that got under his skin.....

We hate him too!

1. I'm listening

this is hilarious!!! Putin is probably telling Dotard to keep Rex on and I'll bet it is killing him!!!

[Hamlette]

2. I wonder what Trump would be like if he had good approval numbers?

Would he be better if he thought we liked him?

[barbtries]

4. i won't pretend for the sake of finding out.

i'd rather push him over the edge - he's on thin ice and i can't help but believe that he will be gone before the end of his 1st term. can't be soon enough.

better wouldn't mean good anyway. nicer maybe but it would never and could never change his primary objectives, self-aggrandizement, money, and fame. he's just that sick.

9. Why do you eschew capitalization?

[barbtries]

13. i don't get it.

[unblock]

15. me neither

[WinkyDink]

18. Too bad. And no, there's no e.e. cummings excuse.

[WinkyDink]

17. What's not to "get"? I'll re-phrase: Why don't you use capital letters when you're supposed to?

(Do you not know the meaning of "eschew"? "Deliberately avoid using.&quot

[barbtries]

20. it's so far off the subject.

i just do. i get used to having it done for me at work, it's quite common on the internet, i'm in a hurry. take your pick

[maxsolomon]

16. because it takes too long

sort of.

just tolerate.

THIS IS THE ALTERNATIVE.

[WinkyDink]

19. Oh, pobrecito! Let's be in a RUSH to post here! BTW, the poster uses punctuation. And the

"alternative" is not all caps, but you know that.

[maxsolomon]

23. ITS AN ALTERNATIVE

n/t

[LanternWaste]

24. Seems at worst, a rather benign and inconsequential irrelevancy to advertise aloud.

26. WGAF?!?!?!

[ecstatic]

31. Lol! nt

[busterbrown]

29. well..

i exchew proper grammer as well........I got a old book written by William Strunk...

I'll send it to you..

14. good approval numbers are just cover for grifting.

the higher his numbers are, the more he feels he can get away with.

don't go looking for good behavior in this guy, you won't find it.

[brush]

21. He'd go into full-on dictator mode then, thinking the good apporval ratings gave him license

[not fooled]

22. I think he likes having people hate him

and knowing it, especially if he thinks he has power over them.

Twisted MOFO. Protege of the vile Roy Cohn.

[Hamlette]

30. you're probably right.

[PearliePoo2]

3. Yes, listening! Theyre NOT cutting him any slack

They see right through him as we do. I’m getting more fond of Nicole all the time. Wouldn’t be surprised if she is the next one to quit the ReThugs. She said she still has ptsd from Palin.

[barbtries]

5. i am befuddled

by republicans such as her and others who remain in the party after all of it. beginning with nixon, reagan, gwbush! i am so naive i thought the republican would curl up and go away after gwbush. seriously, i am that naive. or was.

now i realize that there are huge numbers of people who don't care about democracy, justice, or the rule of law.

[rurallib]

7. I have wondered about such people also

I think that the corporate media has poisoned some decent folks that anything to do with being a Democrat is poison.

So while they can't follow the current Republican Party, they have been so poisoned by media portrayal of Democrats that it has become a line they can't cross.

[barbtries]

8. clearly you're right.

truth be told if by some bizarre quirk of fate republicans became a decent, liberal party and democrats made a hard right turn to fascist, uncaring greed, i don't think i could become a republican.

so maybe i'm just as bad. i don't think so though. i hate republicans. many republicans do too, but they remain republicans. go figure. i think i would at least find a different party - something i have considered, but want to be rooting, working, and voting for a side that is viable.

[murielm99]

12. It would be tough for me to make the switch, too.

I have given this some thought. I am not a one-issue voter, either.

If we do see the demise of the republican party, it will not happen overnight. We may end up with a split between the hard right republicans and the more sensible ones. If that happens, they will be in disarray for awhile. I am not ready to work with them yet, but the time may come.

[TNNurse]

6. I never imagined I would watch Nicole Wallace,

but she is a tough interviewer.

[FakeNoose]

10. This is the stuff we needed to hear before the election

The people who really know him behind the scenes should have told this stuff last year.
Would that have a difference? Possibly, to at least some people.

There were some Democrats who stayed home and didn't vote, because they had a temper tantrum over Hillary.
If the truth came out before the election, maybe those people would have realized how important their votes would have been.

11. Is Sean Hannity an idiot? Its not too soon to say: Menon
