The Late Show's Stephen Colbert was live last night after neo-fascist con artist Donald "Rump" Trump's soporific, contradictory and lie-filled speech to Congress, and he went right at Rump with both skewers. It might be the best summary you'll see, certainly not one you'll be getting from a corporate media eager to proclaim Rump has "changed his tone," "pivoted" or become more "Presidential."
BONUS: What Glenn Thrush said:
For any other president this would be a boring, laundry list speech. For Trump - amazing, responsible, detailed, uniting, presidential!— Glenn Thrush (@GlennThrush) March 1, 2017
And Dana Houle:
Any pundit/journalist who says this was a good speech, but doesn't point out most of it was dishonest &/or premised on bullshit, is a hack— Dana Houle (@DanaHoule) March 1, 2017
Hack (n.) -- see Cillizza, Chris.
Disgusting pandering - everyone involved should be very ashamed. P.E.C.
ReplyDeleteAnd another thing... Chris Cillizza enshrined himself forever in the Hall of Hacks with that article. Touching moment???!!! WTF!!! Shame, shame, shame!
ReplyDeleteTheir careers depend on access to power, even power that's corrupt and sinister. Hope some day that there's a reckoning for their cowardice. Thanks, P.E.C.
