    Wait a minute... Are you suggesting the media didn't cover Hillary's email thing? Or Benghazi? Or anything else she does? The media doesn't give a fuck who it is, if it gets ratings or clicks dammit they are gonna cover it.

    I'm not "suggesting" it, I'm saying they said it themselves.

    Who is they? Did every member of the media say this?

    Here's the transcript of the montage:
    CHUCK TODD (host of "Meet The Press"): What should have been a no good terrible bad three weeks for Hillary Clinton, gone largely unnoticed.

    LISA “KENNEDY” MONTGOMERY (FOX Business Network): It was a very, very stupid thing for Donald Trump to say. Once again, here we have a week where the focus should be on Hillary Clinton.

    TRACY JAN (Boston Globe): The biggest damage is that it draws attention away from Hillary Clinton and her many shortcomings. She should be having a bad week.

    DAVID GERGEN (CNN, Senior political analyst): She's lucky. In the midst of the Donald Trump controversy, her email story, this time around is not getting as much attention as it would otherwise.

    JOHN BERMAN (CNN): Donald Trump is pulling focus unnecessarily away from what you think would be more important issues.

    SUSAN PAGE (USA Today, Washington Bureau Chief): We’re talking about this instead of things that would be harmful to Hillary Clinton's campaign.

    ANA MARIE COX (Washington Correspondent, GQ): What I wouldn’t give for this to be the number one issue in our campaign. That would be awesome, and there wasn’t these implications of assassinations.

    ERIN BURNETT (CNN): Perhaps we could focus on them more if Donald Trump did not continually say these sorts of things.

    Can I explain why.

    2 words


    Donald Trump.

    If the dude would just shut his fucking mouth for 2 minutes. He is digging his own grave.

    Without term limits there is no way to break the cycle of get up to Washington and do whatever you have to, so that you stay there as long as possible.

    You're saying it's unfair and biased though and I would contest that it's not biased because it's a democrat or republican. It's biased because one of the candidates is an idiot that the United States and everyone just can't stop talking about and can't keep his mouth shut. Therefore in order to satisfy the ratings whores and people who only care about clicks and viewers of course it's going to be disproportionate and the American people are to blame because, again, we are living in Idiocracy. News isn't the news, it's a business.

    You think its click-bait, I think its manipulation of an election.

    I don't know if it is so. I said very early into this thing that I was suspicious of Trump and his motives and that he could be setting this up for that bitch. It very well may be exactly that. Like most have said, all he had to do was keep quiet and let her sink but every time she steps on her dick he one ups her. It doesn't make sense.
