      Yep, he plays and twists positions he’s clearly promoting by prefacing with “how those crazy reporters would react” and it works. The media gulps it down, every time. Just look how every mainstream outlet is sanewashing this specific event.

        It’s a self-eating snake now man.

        The media is going to keep on keeping it up because Trump means ratings, and ratings mean money.

          The media is going to keep on keeping it up because it’s all owned by fascist billionaires who are on Trump’s side.

          It’s not just the ratings. They’d get plenty of ratings showing trump being arrested, on trial, going to jail, crying on camera, dying horribly; and same for all his conspirators.
          The billionaires are the ones who benifit from trump, and they own the media.

            But they’d only get those ratings the one time if he dies or goes to prison. If he lives and continues to be dictator president they can milk him indefinitely

              Well he’ll probably die soon regardless (we can only hope). I think he’s racked enough criminal charges to keep the show going until he croaks.

      This fucking idiot is just rambling about an autopen for a few minutes without a hint of irony that he himself is an autopen because his dementia riddled head doesn’t think. He literally said “now I just sign em all because it’s crazy”. It’s like 4 separate layers of irony.

      What a fucking world.
