I figured it for a "drilling" joke, thot the response equally oblique, but, whatever.

A good article on why Trump seems to get away with blatant lies.

Matt Lauer's Trump Failure Is a Symptom of a Larger Problem

At least one exec at NBC is seeing what everyone else is seeing in regards to last night's clusterf**k of a "disaster" on an aircraft carrier. The media in general needs to do better.

As hard as it is to admit, we've picked some doosies, Mike Dukakis comes to mind. Whoever thought of putting him into a tank should've been shot from a cannon into Boston Harbor but I have two words for you, 'Donald Trump'.

I know we rarely see eye to eye on much but I watched Trump almost blowing kisses at Vladimir Putin last night while simultaneously crapping on the military leadership in our country.

I guess the party of Lincoln, Grant, Ike and (gag me) Reagan is kaput. It's really kind of sad.

We've always been half conservative, half liberal in this country but I wouldn't wish this con artist and reality TV star from Manhattan on my worst enemies. It'll be interesting to see how the Grand Old Party heals itself after this and believe it or not, I wish it would get well sooner rather than later.

...back to our regularly scheduled programming.
LA has the Rams back in town. We're gonna kick the stuffing out of the Lions. You watch and see.

Trumps unloads on the American press in Russia Times, Amerikansky edition. What's with this guy and his bromance with Putin?

"Asked during the RT America interview what has surprised him most about the political process, Trump unloaded on the American press.

“Well, I think the dishonesty of the media. The media has been unbelievably dishonest,” Trump responded. “I mean they’ll take a statement that you make which is perfect and they’ll cut it up and chop it up and shorten it or lengthen it or do something with it.”

“And all of a sudden it doesn’t look as good as it did when you actually said it. But there’s tremendous dishonesty with the media. Not all of it, obviously, but tremendous dishonesty,” he said." RT

A perceived alliance with Putin gives him a tough guy image and Trump is all about projecting image and substance is irrelevant. This will serve him well with his core supporters and rest of the country more or less expects this from Trump.
