    Well, you certainly have a point. The hypocrisy of the media is astounding.

    But I've already made that point, haven't I?

    I don't think that this was an actual news briefing but more of the current administration addressing the press That when they lie they will be called out for their lies.
    Seeing how people react strongly to news I think a false story such as the MLK bust being removed can have negative consequences. Even though CNN has dropped dramatically in its ratings there are millions of people who take their word as gospel of truth. I mean really how many people out there still think that Trump is the next Hitler because of the false narrative that CNN and others like them have pushed on to the public? Millions and millions as evidenced from all the women that marched nationwide on Saturday.

    Were I President, I would have the MLK bust broken into pieces.
    I would then proceed to replace it with one of Al Sharpton......

    Agreed. That MLK thing, if not corrected, would have been everywhere and BLM and all those fu*ks would be saying "see? we told you he's racist"

    But then Spicer stating outright false sh!t as fact is crazy as well.

    Do briefs really cause men to have health problems?

    What's really funny is the fact that Trump had Bill and Hilary stand up and get an ovation. He said he was honored that they attended? What happened to Bill being a rapist and Hillary being a criminal that should be in prison? Now he has "a lot of respect for those two people?"

    Would you be honored if a rapist and a criminal showed up to your event? Anyone who thin DJT is not a politician is nuts

    It is termed "diplomacy", and it is a necessity.

    Honoring rapists + honoring thieves = diplomacy

    Got it

    While I am not the one having originally penned it, I have already relayed the thought, many times upon this message board, and if memory correctly serves me, even within this very thread: patience is a virtue.

    Best post you have ever done. I get the fact that Trump won, I get that he gets to push his agenda, but...... come on Mr. President your office is above all this. Your office is above SNL, Streep, Madonna, and talks of ratings. If Trump doesn't want people trolling him for 4 years, for the love of god don't feed it.

    So you think the MLK bust story should have been able to spin in the news cycle considering BLM would have led riots to the tune of it?

    I'm glad we can agree on something lol.

    Seriously, I really believe that most of us here tend to be more centrist and moderate than the obvious few.

    I just wish we could work through the divisiveness and anger and start the healing process. It'd be nice if we could start on this here surf predictin' site.

    Peace and good waves

    Someone is going to get hurt very soon.

    Don't be surprised when people start fighting back.

    Curious to see how those who defend themselves are labeled.
