It's starting to look like Trump will get to nominate another SCOTUS judge...

This has perfectly exposed the hypocrisy of trump supporters. They love it when he insults reporters... or calls a congressman who literally assualted a reporter “his guy.”

Now they’re pearl clutching about Acosta. Funny stuff. #winning
I thought it was interesting how he turned into Vito Corleone when he was bashing the GOP "losers" who didn't ask for his help.
 
That was a nice dodge. Kudos.
Show me where any reporter ever disrespected obama like Acosta. Acosta is a bigger blow hard than trump and Geraldo. How many questions was he supposed to be allowed? He's a showboat like trump but aren't the press supposed to report the news and not be the news? He's the teddy valentine of the press.

Acosta should have asked his question and then moved on. There were 39 reporters there waiting to ask their questions. Even after Trump answered his second question, he wouldn't give up the mic. And while he didn't physically assault the young intern, he did put up the armbar in order to physically keep her from getting the microphone. The guy is a grandstanding douchebag that is apparently scared of 80-year-old women. I have no issue with him getting the boot. For those claiming that this is an assault against the media, the White House didn't ban all media, hell, they didn't even ban CNN, they just banned the idiot who caused a scene.
 
This kind of clown show is exactly what you get when the president makes a mockery of the office. Kinda hard to expect citizens to respect that office when the president himself doesn’t respect it.

It’s kinda funny that the right expects decorum from journalists but not from the president himself... You guys think it’s hilarious when trump breaks decorum. Now you’re offended by a journalist doing it.
He didn't really break decorum.

Trump and the media will always be at-odds because of Trump's paper-thin ego.

They probably never fenced with Reagan, or Bush I or II, or Clinton or Obama like they do with Trump. You know why? Trump begs for them to fvck with him. He revels in the confrontation. He gets his frog-dick in a twist when the media doesn't put frosting on his ass. But, he's acted like a petulant child from the start. He doesn't act presidential, he shows the office disregard. The only people who don't see it this way are Trump and his Army of supporters.
 
Show me one example of the press at a press conference disrespectful of obama like Acosta did. I'll wait

you’re not following...it wasn’t “disrespectful” so there are no examples where obama cut off reporters as such, told them to sit down, called their questions racist, and had the press secretary lie about the interaction.

so no, i do not have video evidence like the video evidence of that circus yesterday.

Because they didn't disrespect the office then. And it was disrespectful. He got in 2 questions and wouldn't stop. He wants to be a poor mans Geraldo.

I don't think Trump is that thin-skinned. He let himself be roasted by a bunch of leftist comics. Do you think Obama would have let himself be roasted by a bunch of far-right comics? Hell, Obama got ticked because people made fun of his ears. Who is the real thin-skinned politician?

Okay... so, they both are.

How accommodating is Trump of Alec Baldwin impersonating him?

I'm not really concerned with Obama. He's gone. Trump's ego is gigantic. His ego being damaged is what made him run for president.
 
Nothing to defend little guy. I love watching the left bitch.

does it remind you of the eight years previous when you couldn’t even debate a point without getting your panties in a wad and insulting everyone on the board?...or maybe when w was in office and you thought he could do nothing wrong?

i guess you just tried to insult me...i don’t get it, but okay.

no it wasn’t, quit already.

in your opinion, has trump done anything disrespectful to the office either while being president or running for president?

Don't like his twittering. But happy with his policies. So you are arguing 2 wrongs make a right?

I don't think I would call criticizing someone's performance a "shit-fit".

That’s exactly what every right wing poaster on this board does anytime someone criticizes trump’s performance. We’ve been listening to the tired tropes about the left “losing the minds over trump” ever since he got elected.
 
Baldwin's impression is terrible. Here's one of the greatest comedians of all time explaining it.

I respect Norm, for sure. But, Norm's opinion is his opinion. Norm makes some great points in that interview. I don't believe Trump ever thought he'd actually win... or, at least he never REALLy wanted to be president. He just wanted to win the election. If he could have won and passed-it-off and saved face, he would have, I think.

But, Norm is also just as guilty of milking a premise. I mean, it helped get him fired!

Trump enduring a roast is intentional. Trump being criticized and parodied day after day is a totally different thing.

Okay, he gets on Twitter and rants about it. Or, he insults the comic, or impersonator. Shit-fit is subjective, but it fit from my perception.Or, he calls a reporter rude, or calls a network "Fake News", or he claims he didn't say something he did, or he spins, ducks and dodges. He's a douchebag and he always has been. As Norm said "He's a New York eccentric." He's a caricature, a charlatan, a carnival barker, a used car salesman.

ETA: If he would shut his mouth and just implement his policies, he'd get far less flack from EVERYONE! But, he can't just do that. He can't do that because, like most of his life, he is the presentation. He represents the illusion, the veneer and the exterior. He, himself, is responsible for very little actual "work." He's the showman.

Because a lot of the left qualifies for that. Should you be grouped in with those people? Probably not. However, there are a lot of unhinged Democrats out there right now.

As are all politicians.

Those networks have earned that "fake news" label. The NYT is basically the left's version of Breitbart.

He's also calling out scumbags, so I don't have much of a problem with it.
