cause its distracting and gives him attention and validates his supporters who think all media is fakenews.

What would happen if they would barely mentioned it or at least be amused instead of shocked. Trump is like a racist uncle you see 2,3 times a year at a family gathering.


I am sure media is going to take your advice! Just wait...they turning in their equipment and all...

If we ignore it, we become desensitized to it and people will just think the behaviour is okay.

It will become normal to be an idiot.

Personally, I dont want it to be okay to be an idiot.

It dumbs down the entire US population and makes us complacent.


Blame Jessica Simpson! She made her famous ‘is it tuna or chicken’ speach and became a bomb!

Since then being stupid considered cute. Unreversable.

I will say that most news media programs tend to focus on the pointless parts of Trump's presidency over the important parts more often than not. However no his behavior should not be ignored. He is not just your racist uncle you see every so often. He is the president of the United States and is the most powerful political force we have...unfortunately.

I just wish the media would be more critical about his behavior. They may bring up something he said but most of the time they'll never use specific labels like "racist" or "incompetent" when that's obviously what he is.

Maybe they need to change something. There is no consequence for him. Labeling him incompetent or pointing in great detail the consequences such as being embarassed by him would chamge the debate.


From documentaries I remember people were mesmerized when Hitler was speaking if blue blood that should dominate the world!

At least Trump don’t burn villages in a barns with newborns!

So can you just shut up and watch after your Angela?

But they won't. They don't want to upset his base which is funny cause his base doesn't watch those news outlets. They aim to be objective and neutral. Which in some ways is good but at other times it's ridiculous and makes them come across as idiotic.

If it walks like a duck and quacks like a duck it's probably a duck and not a squirrel in a duck costume.
