Lou Dobbs’s Trump interview is a masterpiece of sycophancy and nonsense

POTUS forgets why his tax plan is good for the middle class.

Lou Dobbs took a different approach. His questions weren’t softballs, they were downright sycophantic and often featured the interviewer attempting to supply Trump with the answers.

Dobbs’s very first question, if you can call it a question, is this: “In nine months in office, you’ve already accomplished more in the way of job creation.

The move in the equities markets has been extraordinary and record setting. All of the indexes, at or near record levels.

You have accomplished so much in that nine months. :lol

And yet, as you say, we need tax reform.

You’re meeting resistance from within your own party.

You’re meeting resistance from the Democrats.

How do you move from here?”

And the interview concludes with Trump — the President of the United States — telling Dobbs that “it’s an honor” to be able to speak with him.

In between, of course, you get Trump’s usual mishmash of gibberish, lies, and misstatements.

Fox News Revenues Nosedive Despite Trump’s Constant Viewing

MSNBC is up 2 percent and CNN is down just 1 percent.




Fox News (https://www.huffingtonpost.com/topic/fox-news) is having trouble keeping its advertisers happy.

Ad revenues plunged 17 percent (http://www.adweek.com/tvnewser/which-cable-news-anchor-had-the-most-ad-revenue-in-september/346401) in September over the same month last year,

according to the most recent financial data for the operation.

Statistics from the Standard Media Index (https://www.standardmediaindex.com/), which tracks media income, showed that

Fox News took the biggest hit of any cable news operation.

CNN, which President Donald Trump (https://www.huffingtonpost.com/topic/donald-trump) frequently describes as “fake news,” lost just 1 percent in revenue, and MSNBC was up 2 percent.

Dobbs lost any journalistic credibility with that. It was painful to watch.

The problem I have is these companies give so much -- I mean the contributions are massive, just massive, the amount. But we do have -- there are a lot of good people that are seeing what’s going on. And I think we’ll be successful in that. Next week, I’m going to declaring an emergency, national emergency on drugs.

The opioid is a tremendous emergency, what’s going on there. The drugs pouring into the country have gotten -- and I tell you what, we’ve made a big impact. But still, we need the wall. You know, part of the reason we need the wall is for drugs.

I don't think he had any to begin with.

:lol declaring a public health emergency and unleashing the full power of a $57,000 war chest to solve opioids.

57? I read he asked for no additional funding for health emergency nobody has ever seen before.

The opioid crisis needs its own thread, which must include the murderous multi-billionaire Sackler family, who are now pushing their murdering by drugs into foreign countries, much like drug lords of BigTobacco have done, are doing.

... while harmless skunk remains Schedule I.

Eyup.

A do-nothing policy from a do-nothing president desperate to make it look like he is doing something other than golfing, and handing out trophies for golfing.

Trump has got to be one of the laziest mother fuckers on the planet.

Murdoch ain’t gonna be feelin so good


They won't care. They stole the election already. They are already working on how to steal the next one. If Dems keep pussyfooting around "not offending" the 33% because - oh lord - "they might rally around trump"

and start putting their foot on trumps neck and start embarrassing the shit out of him-

they will lose again.

[Nbadan]

Dems gotta just win over the cushy middle....ie....don't nominate a candidate that voters hate worse than Trump.....yes I know the bar is not to high..

[Spurs Homer]

Tucker Carlson not apologizing for his nazi tirade - because FOX news racist watchers approve of all his hatred.

Tucker: "I'm the victim of the left wing MOB!" :cry:cry:cry:cry

...but-but - dems are "anti-semitic!" :cry:cry
