CNN is irrelevant. Bigly.

Trump has a phone and a pen too.

CNN has finally become MSNBC, and it is therefore no longer justifiable to waste time considering their irrelevancy, just as it’s been a complete waste of time watching, thinking about, or commenting about MSNBC for several years now.

After all, how many times does one have to note that: “CNN/MSNBC said some more stupid shite”? Is it really necessary to say that a thousand and one times instead of just a thousand times to make the point more effective?

“What you do in an authoritarian regime is you delegitimize the press,”

You don’t need Trump, the press has already delegitimized itself.

Trump doesn’t need to crack down on the press. The press has dug their own grave and they are in the process of pulling the dirt in over themselves.

I think it was Napoleon who said “Don’t interrupt your enemy while they are busy making mistakes.”

Abe Lincoln was a professional wrestler. Trump was just a guest that was popular enough to get in to the HOF. Sheesh. Lincoln only lost one match.

Obama needs to get buff so he can crush 180 yard drives on the golf course.

I wonder if Trump telling CNN honcho that he hates them was a warning shot. If it was, they didn’t listen. I hope he doesn’t allow a CNN reporter in the white house press corps. That’s corps. Not corpse.
