Just finished watching “Fox News Sunday.”
The market is a wide open for a motivated entrepreneur to start a true “conservative” cable channel. At the moment there isn’t one.
Those things are like shiny baubles meant to deflect and distract.
Recall in 2012 all of the silly ‘little’ things that showed up in the media regarding Romney and the Republicans.
That is what the media and opposition does. These shiny objects make for a half-day news coverage. They may even expand into a whole day or even two of ‘news’. The 24/7s need something to occupy time slots.
We’ve wandered off the trail and are essentially squabbling amongst ourselves over the last of the trail mix.
We need to have a goal we can pull together to strive for.
Instead we have Uber...
I watch METV too, and the old horror movies on Comet TV.
I just channel flipped across Fox, MSNBC, and CNN (9:30 am Mountain time).
TV news. Quit watching it.
He even dominated Weekend Update on SNL last night! With regard to SNL, they made fun of both Trump and Crooked Hillary and Trump came out better in the deal. One skit had "Barbie President" doll made to look like Shrillary and the mother tried to get her little girls to play with it but the girls decided that the doll was boring and would rather play with a broom than the Barbie President doll. Funny stuff!
Also Dana Carvey returned as "Church Lady" and interviewed Trump with Melania and Ivanka along with another unidentified beautiful woman. When asked who the third woman was, Trump replied that she was just another model that he picked up for the night. Classic!
Trump knows exactly what he's doing and he's living inside the heads of the media and his political opponents.
“It was the liberals’ sacred Cinco de Mayo day. “.........
Which had NOTHING to do with America or Americans, it was to celebrate the war between the French and Mexico. In America it’s just a day to drink beer, eat Mexican food and celebrate WITH the Mexicans who are LEGAL here.
That’s a “micro aggression” if I’ve ever seen one.
What’s next, fried chicken, a matzoh ball, an egg roll, a meat ball?
If Trump eats a frankfurter on July 4th will he be offending citizens who came here from Germany?
I know...Thing about it, it isn’t even a mole hill...
The left (and the GOPe) are at a loss trying to find some way handle Trump...Their lack of understanding the world outside of the beltway is glaringly obvious....
Born in Roswell & lived there till 6th grade. Military tours in WSMR, El Paso and Las Cruces.
Without a doubt the single most incendiary, idiotic sentiment I have ever encountered from ‘other Americans’.
Useful now for sarcastic rhetoric in this forum.
I apologize for the latest transformation of our America.
“Taco bowls.” are the new guac bowls.
`The best lack all conviction, while the worst are full of passionate intensity.’
The above passage is what they’re used to: control the message, minimize the opposition with fake outrage and derision.
But Trump and the internet have changed the game so completely that the monolithic power elite are absolutely flibber-jibbeted.
Just my 2 cents.
On cursory examination, they succeed. But listen to them frequently and their lib-ness comes out.
What you see on display, here, is the lack of intelligence assembled in TV panel discussions.
Stoking at takeoff must be a bitch.
I think you're on to something. Trump baited them, and they jumped on it.
By insinuating that the taco bowl was racist and insensitive, the MSM has, by extension, called Middle America racist.
Because, who doesn't like taco salads?
Is it racist to eat corned beef and cabbage on St Pat's day? What about green beer?
Corn at Thanksgiving? A misappropriation of Native American culture! Maize belongs to the Indians!
He has made them look like fools.
The funny thing is that it hasn't worked so far.
Yeah! Trump didn’t say he wanted to deport “illegal taco bowls.” The media are traitorous a**es.
Media have been trying to get or create a ‘macaca moment’ since Trump announced his candidacy last June. Every time they thought they had one, Trumps numbers went up another 2 or 3 or 5 points.
The media are fit to be tied. This kind of stuff used to work! Why isn’t is working now?
Possibly because too many finally figured out the media game and are not wanting to play it any more.
the way So. California is going they’re going to take the New Year’s day Rose Bowl football game and renamed it the Taco Bowl and make it soccer
