2016 Postmortem
Related: About this forumMy husband wouldn't turn Brian Williams off like I demanded
And Williams ran clips from every single Trump rally over the weekend with Trump saying how Hillary broke the law, Hillary keeps lying and lying and lying, Hillary is not a role model for his son Barron
Asshole Williams just let it run and run with clips of the most hateful parts from Trumps rallies.
The media is disgusting. It's like they can't multi task stories. Pick one and beat it to death.
He can no longer have the remote control until this election is over.

(2,795 posts)Matthews, Williams, nothing on MSNBC before 3pm my time and that time is still a stretch for me. Nothing on CNN because they seem to have non-stop Trump surrogates on.
My husband thinks it's funny to torture me with political stuff. He'll vote for Hillary but he needles me just to rile me up and I don't know why he thinks that's funny. He, very seriously, yesterday was telling me how he saw a video on his Trump loving college friend's facebook page that Hillary had a stroke (the video collapsing into the care with pneumonia) and there is video of her getting anti-seizure injections. I just looked at him like he was out of his head. He'll go on for awhile then laugh and laugh.
He'd better watch it. I'm in NO mood!

(26,653 posts)or doesn't, whatever. He watches Fox, drives me nuts. I think he's gaslighting me.
He's totally for Hillary, way before me, I supported Bernie in the primaries. Laughs at the fox people. sick form of entertainment. maybe it's the women..

(2,795 posts)Outraged, I ask why he's watching that slop. He claims he wants to know what the other side is saying Lies. He could just make stuff up in his head, really outlandish stuff, and that's what the other side is saying. So TURN THE CHANNEL!
But maybe it is the women

(11,498 posts)Isn't watching the news. They are getting home from work, feeding the kids, having some wine or beer to relax after kids go to bed and last thing they want to think about is depressing news or the election.
Tonight most of them were either taking their kids out or watching tv movies.
Most of my daughters friends, late 30's, if no kids or they are grown are at the gym after work since they sit all day at their desk.
The few people that actually have the news on i am sure have already decided. The uninformed are not watching CNN, their relaxing after work. Sometimes I wish I could not know too, it's stressful to be informed.
