Trump's SMASH-YOUR-FACE leadership

Trump's smash-your-face leadership excites Americans like no-jacket Jim Jordan, rep what’s-his-name Collins and Corrupt @CLewandowski. Trump’s lies, hypocrisy and misogyny don’t matter. The nastier, the better. Those who are loyal to narcissists hang on until they get torched when narcissist goes down in flames. The question is whether Trump’s downfall will come before the 2020 election. Not looking good for that.

Himmler was discarded. Goebbels stayed to the end. @RudyGiuliani was in, then toast, now he’s back; no-jacket Jim is still in (for now); @jeffsessions remains loyal to Trump’s coattails; @LindseyGrahamSC pin-balls too much for anyone to know his true stance; Pence waits, panting.

One flicker of optimism: in their eventual downfall, narcissists place blame on their most loyal allies, abandon them and find themselves alone with zero support from anyone.

Chis Matthews and MSNBC: Time for him to join Fox like Lou Dobbs.

TIME TO POST THIS AGAIN! FIRST POSTING WAS 4 YEARS AGO. Watch YouTube clip of Matthews ranting against Bernie and Socialism. 
Original posting May, 2016: Title: MSNBC? Not so much any more.

I used to crave MSNBC, Chris Matthews, Rachel Maddow. Smart people, those two. And more or less politically compatible with my liberal thinking, except when it came to them actually promoting the results of the Warren Commission which LBJ commissioned to avoid a real investigation that might have suggested triangulated gunfire including a shot from the front right that took off the back of JFK’s head. How anyone can still buy into Lee Harvey Oswald as JFK's killer amazes me. But that’s getting off point.

Just recently, I decided I can no longer watch Chris or Rachel or anyone else on MSNBC. And it’s not just the incessant Cialis ads and other obnoxious direct-to-consumer advertising by Big Pharma. Chris and Rachel and the gang are so biased in their reporting, so pro-Clinton, and so utterly dismissive of Bernie Sanders and his ideas that it is clear that they or their bosses must be trying to manipulate the election. Did they do this in the Obama/Hillary primaries of ’08? Don’t remember. Must not have had the channel back then. 

Sander’s proposals are not  out-of-line with liberal Democratic views. It must be that Sanders-the-man is out-of-line with those who are beholden to Hillary Clinton in some way, or perhaps it is the owners and broadcasters at MSNBC. This generally applies to all the major networks, it’s just more painful at MSNBC. Even PBS, usually so thorough in their coverage of both and all sides of an argument, has been dismissive of Bernie’s message, assuming that Hillary is definitely the nominee, discouraging the all-important battles of ideas.

Come to think of it, maybe it IS Big Pharma. If MSNBC is dependent upon those drug company ads for their profit margin, it would make sense to be against Bernie Sanders because of his strong opposition to the deplorable ways of Big Pharma. 

 Whether it is biased individual anchors, the influence of Big Pharma, or indebted management, I’m almost finished with MSNBC. I’ve also given up on the rest of corporate network TV, and I suspect I’m not alone in this thinking. Unbiased, respectful reporting will have to be found elsewhere.
