That's the problem with all the infotainment outlets. They always give the most face time to the most controversial, because that garners the best ratings. Who really gives a crap what Conway or Trump have to say? Everyone already knows they are idiots, with the same old spew blathering forth. Spend time in the trenches with the legislators and the governors, that would be a lot more useful to us. Spend time actually investigating issues, analyzing budgets, and so on - but the reality is that the average American is so dumbed down at this point that they will find this "boring".

I'll tell you what, Norman Lear could not have cast a better sitcom cast than what this administration is made up of ! What a great cast, and all of them are funny as Hell. We have the bumbling President, who gives incoherent speeches, Spicey, who stumbles through trying to defend and explain the dumb things his boss does, and KellyAnne, the staff member that no one can figure out exactly what she does, or what purpose she serves. Pence is the uptight VP who spends his days planning what he will do when he takes over his bosses job.

Backing that up, we have his two sons, Frick and Frack, the glamorous daughter who spends the day painting her nails, and, finally, the wife with the Russian accent (kinda like Natasha on Rocky and Bullwinkle).

TV today is a vast wasteland, but this Trump show is the funniest thing out there right now. Love it. Hope they don't cancel it too soon because of low ratings.

She's a caricature of herself, an on-camera SNL skit. The WH locked her in the basement for a few months but she managed to pick the lock.

All bets are off with journalists. They'd meet you under a bridge in a heartbeat.

But if Obama or Clinton had received an email to meet with an unknown Russian with evidence that Trump colluded with the Kremlin, you can bet they would have contacted the FBI and arranged a sting.

Obama-would-have-done-it-too nonsense just doesn't work here.

No kidding ! If you look at the ridiculous story Donnie Jr came up with " I didn't know who we were going to meet, so I got Manafort and Jerod and we went to this secret meeting at Trump Tower !" Yeah, just like I could call up Donnie Jr and say " I can't tell you who I am, but I need to meet with you !"

One thing I have to give him is that he certainly inherited is father's (lack of) brains. He and his brother look like dumb and dumber.

You and me both.

KellyAnne is the batty old aunt. Whenever I see clips of her, I always imagine Cloris Leachman could have done a better job at it.

The wife with the Russian accent is a fun twist. Everyone on the show pretends it is no big deal while the audience is thinking, "sleeper agent."

Then there is Huckabee's daughter, looking for all the world like a persistent pledge at an unpopular sorority.

It's Parks & Rec on a larger stage.

Sorry we are not interested because someone might think you are a plant.. man if you thought that you would be the most paranoid person in the world. You would take the meeting but bring in trusted others to help decide if the meeting was legit and cut it off short if it wasn't going anywhere positive.
Just like what don jr did.


You do realize that Don Jr's meeting, assuming he knew who he was meeting with, is actually evidence of collusion, right?


A meeting by someone in Trump's campaign, with someone else connected to the Russian government, because they claim they have information damaging to your opponents campaign efforts is the very definition of colluding with the Russians.


You understand that, right?


And no, I don't buy for a second that Don Jr "didn't know who he was going to meet with".

When you know- that you know- and you just know- but can't prove it- I had a boyfriend like that once in HS- eventually the cat came out the big BIG TIME_ -- yes dear -- you are the father-
- maybe we need to hire Maury--? He would get to the bottom of it all--

She was on every network yesterday trying to spin the Donald Jr. story. They think she's appears to be clever by just rambling and turning everything back to some issue that is not related at all to the story.
