WTF how could Trump be so inappropriate? I hate Drumpf now.

That is what it seems like these days who can hate Trump more ? Like it's a contest !

No, we can't have that contest. We'll go bankrupt giving out all the participation trophies.

Isn't Trump anti-outsourcing? Don't American companies outsource a lot to India?

Only jobs that no one would want like a call center job
I would love to have that job... Almost any job would be nice right about now lol

Holy crap, even Salon is starting to realize that attacks on Trump might be backfiring. I mean, sure, they refuse to acknowledge their own contributions over the past year and are putting BuzzFeed on the sacrificial altar as the scapegoat, but it's progress... I think.

BuzzFeed’s inauguration gift to Donald Trump: Publishing outrageous rumors, true or false, only helps him

Will this finally change the way media covers Trump?

That's what they think they're doing already. They just can't contain themselves enough to not group the truth in with the usual tidal wave of sensationalism, one-sided opinions, and oversaturation of coverage on every insignificant thing Trump does.

John McCain handed over the Golden Shower files to the FBI in Dec.
He made a statement this morning. Things are about to get very interesting.

Well, the dossier is basically debunked at this point, and the backtracking and finger pointing are taking over the news. What has been lost as a result of this?

Obama gives his farewell speech. Practically nobody has anything to say about it.

Cory Booker auditions to become the next Obama testifies against Podesta. He makes history by being the first sitting Senator to testify against a Senate colleague in cabinet hearings. The end result? Not worth the air time, apparently.

Well let's see. CNN published the truth. The report on these alleged compromising tapes is out there and that out intelligence agencies were worried enough to investigate and report on the subject.

Then the Donald called them out for reporting facts I don't like. But Buzzfeed, which published not just the report, but the entire set of allegations? Nary a word.

So there's a new dieselgate involving Fiat-Chrysler. And I'm conflicted: on one hand I'm sorry for the honest workers that are in those factories and could lose their jobs should the market tank too hard from this; on the other though, I feel just too much Schadenfreude for anything bad that happens to the Agnelli dynasty.

Ah damn, feeling sorry for the workers wins..

So much of today's news is stories about the story about the intelligence report.

But one thing bothers me. This was opposition research2 first produced for the Jeb! crew. Jeb dropped out over 10 months ago. The report was shopped around.

Why did it only break now?

Anyone want to make up a good conspiracy theory?
