Yes, they and Russia put Ronald McDonald in the WH. But a sad truth about that is that MANY of them simply don't care what he says, does, as long as liberals suffer. If the country gets blown to bits it doesn't matter as long as liberals suffer. That's where we are today. They've been completely indoctrinated to consider those with different viewpoints as anti - American and thus the enemy. We've no choice left but to outvote them.

CNN releases poll that shows his approval at 42%... bummer. Add in the fact that so many people never watch news and would never even hear about the worst stuff. Saw a reporter on the street to other day..people didn't even know who Paul manafort was.

But the truth is, a whole lot of people NEVER watch, listen, or read about anything of substance. I would guess that many, if not most, of us here at DU are political news junkies.

Apathy is a big problem.

are in a bubble of reality floating on a great sea of the surreal.

Trump and his billionaire overlords have really done a great job of manufacturing consent over the decades since Reagan allowed the Fairness Doctrine to die. The acronym Stephen King uses is GSA - Great Stupid America.

But there's still hope.

Imagine some jewish person helping the Gestapo to spin it?

Not that those pricks had trouble making up lies.

A spin is a lie.

Katrina Pierson wanted to figure out a way to “spin” Trump using the n word. That’s what is on the tape.

The Association of German National Jews (Verband nationaldeutscher Juden) which obviously was gone by the mid 1930’s. It just goes to show the possible lengths of human delusional behavior.

I think it's a safe bet that he's the person in California that Omarosa was referring to when she said she flew out to hear it. I think it'll be out this week.

"I have the tape". He said this months ago. tRUMPs claim that Mark Burnett said tapes don't exist is a coy way of saying they did exist but have been destroyed. MGM and NBC need to get into this and make a statement. Yes, everyone has NDA's but for the country they should ignore them and we will set up a funding effort to protect them financially.

Only that she knows they exist(ed). Mark Burnett (presumably) has them, if they still exist.

Omarosa HAS been releasing tapes she does have, and doing so in a masterful way ... getting idiots from Team Trump to publicly call her a liar, then BOOM, TAPE MOFO'S! as she did today.

She proved, with a tape, WHY she believes the N-Word tapes ... exist. Just days after first making the claim. Not exactly dragging it out, IMHO.

... she is playing this pretty well. She makes an accusation, waits for them to deny it, and then produces the tape. Pierson is now proven to be a lying sack of shit. I hope this goes on for a while.
