Hey, Chuck:
I have never felt like vomiting while watching television before, but watching you tonight on "Meet The Press"....you did it, pal. I felt the anger boiling and then the bile rising.
You went through a litany of what happened in the Presidential race this week and then threw up your hands wondering 'what is this race even about anymore'? Hahahaha.
Yeah, Chuck, it's just fucking HILARIOUS that you and your fellow "journalists" have turned a Presidential race into a low-rent reality show. It's fucking HYSTERICAL that you've hoisted a carnival barker to within striking distance of having first strike capabilities. It’s so funny. It is. Just hilarious.
You lament this race isn't about issues? That it's about chaos? It's because people like YOU want it that way. Guess what Chuckles, Donald Trump shouldn't be the one calling the shots over what is aired and talked about--YOU should be calling those shots. That's what an actual, you know, journalist would do. But you don't want to make this a fair race about issues. You WANT chaos, because you want ratings. And I'm getting the feeling you really, really want a President Trump, too.
Chuck is it really funny to you that a white nationalist racist is so close to being the most powerful man in the world? Does it just tickle your little funny bone that the Klan and neo-Nazis are now running around this country spewing their bile with new fervor? Do you think it's entertaining that some of us literally fear for our lives if we express support for Hillary Clinton in public because the Klan guy down the block now feels free to do whatever he wants to us? Feels free to do that because of the rise of Trump? Do you find it worthy of a huge, mirthful laugh that a man who openly admires a dictator is this close to being President? Is it a laugh riot that Trump keeps up his subtle/not subtle calls for one of his followers to take a shot at Mrs. Clinton already? Is that just comic relief to you?
Chuck, this race may be funny for you and your panel, but for many of us it's deadly serious. YOU have turned it into a carnival. YOU have spent more time dragging Mrs. Clinton through the mud then you have delving deeply into Trump's problems. YOU and your fellow "journalists" are the ones who have turned this race into chaos. Not Trump. You. You allow it, you encourage it, you feed it, you love it.
I'm sure the whole thing is hilarious when you're an entitled, rich, white man. Those of us who aren't...the minorities, non-Christians, immigrants, the disabled, those of us with a conscience ...we ain't having so much fun.
You make me sick you sorry excuse for a journalist, and I hope you're the first one on the chopping block when Fuhrer Trump goes after the press. (Although, you're such a spineless, rudderless toad you'd probably change your name to Goebbels and get heavily into making "documentaries" if Trump asked you to).
I'll be off now to block MSNBC from my channel line-up.
(Sorry. Just had to get that out somewhere).
EDIT: Wow. Number one, I really didn’t think anyone would even see this let alone read it, so thank you!
Number two, I have a message asking I take another look at today’s MTP show. I did. I still see and hear people laughing. I still see Chuck just wondering what in the world is going on, etc etc.
Well, here is what is going on Chuck...what is Donald’s race about? Xenophobia, racism and sexism. It’s still all about what it’s always been about. And if you’d like Donald to elaborate on what his race about, why don’t you in the media hold his feet to the fire on it? Why don’t you show a little count-down clock showing how long it’s been since Donald had a real press conference, where he was asked real questions, with follow-ups, and he wasn’t allowed to filibuster his way out of it.
There are a lot of things the media could do regarding Donald, and not one of them includes treating this all like an episode of The Real Housewives of a Political Campaign.
Thanks again, guys! Just having DKos helps a lot of us get through these election seasons when we live in places where we’re totally out-numbered and truly afraid of our Trump supporting townfolk.
