"Sorry, we created Trump" is the new "Sorry, we should've been more critical about the WMDs"

No, wait, I think there was a "Sorry, we should've been more skeptical about the housing bubble" in there too. Anyway, it's nice to see the millionaire talking heads in the media apologizing again for fucking up on the job.

Up next: Sorry, we should've paid more attention to what was going on in Africa

He's always been a douche.

Not one notable achievement in his life.

as evidenced by the record ratings over the past year, not to mention the 10 daily threads on DU every time Trump said something outrageous...

And don't get me started on the "Having Trump in the race is a *good* thing because it'll throw a wrench in the works of the eventual GOP nominee!" -silliness... Talk about bad optics.
