As Donald Trump continues to rise in Republican presidential primary polls, The Huffington Post announced today that it will suddenly cease coverage of Trump’s campaign as part of its politics coverage.
The news comes as a new slew of national polls places Trump at the top of the Republican field, threatening traditional Democratic and Republican interests who hope to keep issues like immigration off the national radar screen.
The Huffington Post writes, “After watching and listening to Donald Trump since he announced his candidacy for president, we have decided we won’t report on Trump’s campaign as part of The Huffington Post’s political coverage. Instead, we will cover his campaign as part of our Entertainment section. Our reason is simple: Trump’s campaign is a sideshow. We won’t take the bait.”
Trump quickly fired back in a statement calling The Huffington Post a “clown show”.
Mr. Trump has never been a fan of Arianna Huffington or the money-losing Huffington Post. The only clown show in this scenario is the Huffington Post pretending to be a legitimate news source. Mr. Trump is not focused on being covered by a glorified blog. He is focused on Making America Great Again.

Man, I don't know yet if Trump is really serious about going the distance but damn if he doesn't always have a good comeback.
I'm enjoying this.

I’ll guarantee that their entertainment front page gets more eyes than their political pages. I say they are doing Trump a favor.

It is entertaining.
70% of the citizens, not just Republicans want the border secured and the laws enforced.
The only way to lose is to hispander with amnesty, which is exactly what the GOP plan is.

While he strikes a nerve, a Trump presidency wouldn’t look like conservatives think it would.

All the news that's fit to print. that we think is fit to print. Time for you clowns to stop pretending that you actually have some journalistic credibility.

a Trump presidency wouldn’t look like conservatives think it would. Maybe, but it wouldn't look like anything the uniparty's agenda to kill America either.

I just keep hoping Lindsey Graham will say something bad about Trump. That comeback would be worth seeing....

Maybe they would start to cover the Trump presidency at some point then.

... polling from Kellyanne Conway shows the Republican party’s best bet at winning votes from working class Americans of all extractions — white, black, hispanic — is to pledge to defend their jobs from new waves of foreign workers. Good news!

The new liberal method of ensuring only their politics matter: Ignore the other side.
