Trump vs Scarborough

[Mik]

the argument is still essentially the same one from the day after he was elected.

"He should't BE president! We don't LIKE him!".

Well, buckle up, buttercup. Most likely you have four more years coming up.

And at this point in time, 95% of the public doesn't care.

I don't know about that, however I do know that 76.7% of statistics are made up on the spot.

Listen in on everyday conversation of people who do not belong to the Chattering Class. They don't give a rolling red rat's rectum about it.

Beyond not being Presidential - it’s just scummy human behavior.

He’s accusing one party of adultery and another of murder.

Actually it is the adultery and murder that are bad.

[xenon]

I don’t think you would like it if someone accused you of of either.

[xenon]

@Jolly good thing the President cares and spends his time on this and myriad other topics that should be considered at a time like this.

[jon-nyc]

People often comment he'd be better off if he didn't tweet. But another real improvement would be if he didn't watch TV.

I've got the feeling Trump goes through topics like a dose of salts through a widder woman.

[xenon]

@Jolly don’t disagree. He’s the “chattering class” ringleader.

The season before last of "Homeland" featured a guy who was a radio personality. He was a cross between Rush Limbaugh, Tyler Durdin (Zero-Hedge), and a tele-evangelist. Of course, the worst of all these personalities were combined into this character as the villain, supporting domestic terrorism.

Anyhow, Trump's tweets remind me of what this fictional character would have said.

Mr. President, step away from the iPhone. You're not helping yourself.

I’m no Ann Coulter fan but if Trump doesn’t address the nation this evening it will be extremely awkward. I hope he has his narrative down because it may be the most important speech he will give this election season.

I don’t expect miracles from it, Obama wasn’t able to inflect much in Ferguson but still he needs to get on TV. If I were a democratic strategist I would put Obama and Clinton on to talk to the nation and even try to co-opt Bush.

[Larry]

I think Trump should tweet as much as he wants to, say as much as he wants to, and I will continue to laugh my ass off at those who want him to stop.

[jon-nyc]

Yeah, why attempt healing a country when you just sit back and own the libs.

[Larry]

Why bother to keep trying to heal a bunch of morons who haven't listened to a damned thing in the last 50 years? Just eliminate them and solve the problem.

[Horace]

A speech would be interesting, I hope he makes one. But I don't think he needs to be speechifying for these riots to play well for him in November. This political battle was over before it started. Point conservatives.

[Jolly]

Law & Order.

[jon-nyc]

Yep. 1968 all over again.

This can be a referendum on Trump, or a referendum on riots. Depends really on how long they last and how bad they get.

Are you saying you're going to get proactive about that?
