Meh. The Press is supposed to effectively be the fourth branch of government, not brown nosing the elite.

The blood-dimmed tide is loosed, and everywhere
The ceremony of innocence is drowned;
The best lack all conviction, while the worst
Are full of passionate intensity.

They are supposed to be, but its turned into a big suck each other off circle jerk.

This is more winning by Trump

Yeah you say that now but when the Press needed knee replacements from bowing to Obama giving sloppy blow jobs you were silent or more likely had the same dick in your mouth.

:naughty:

:oops: I couldn't resist.

Fuck the media. It's going to be fun to see who's left after 8 years.

He should stop pardoning turkeys and White House Easter egg hunt participants should only be heavily armed children. I don't want to see aging celebrities performing for the First Family or Trump picking brackets either. Enough with all this bullshit.
It seems like a good idea for the President to go to Camp David occasionally to meet with foreign dignitaries in certain circumstances, but I hope whatever vacations he does take he takes on his own properties, rather than renting some palatial beach house at the taxpayers' expense.
What other ceremonial crap can be flushed out of "the swamp?" Do the champion Super Bowl and World Series teams really need a presidential handshake? Should Trump get a dog (along with a groomer, handler, and trainer) because that's what presidents do?
Any other ideas, people?

I dont a problem with that other stuff except the brackets, sports pundits in chief aint in the job description. As for Camp David or own props, media whines like bitches either way.

Might have been funny if he pardoned them for their fake news crimes at the dinner, though.

You're a little late. I stopped being an Obamabot about the time he gave the banksters all that free money, with not jail time, and then let those same bastards slaughter the home owners.

I'm still waiting for Penner to tell me how bad this is.
