You can't make this stuff up.

What is it again, that Trump did wrong? I cannot remember?

As usual, race card was pulled.

Well, we'll find out if he indeed had something to hide after the investigation is completed.

Anyhow getting back to the OPs questions. ..

MSNBC barely calling Brown a democrat. And the old windbag blamed somehow else for her stealing money. Guilty on 18 felonies. 18 felony comvictiond and she pled not guilty (as if....)

http://www.msn.com/en-us/news/politi...D=ansmsnnews11

She didn't even resign. Typical of democrats that don't resign ( Hillary), she had to be beaten in a primary.

You certainly do have a victim-mindset.

It doesn't matter how much media coverage it gets, because in your mind it will never be enough.

This story is of particular interest to me because locally we have a similar scandal going on where state legislators were evidently getting kickbacks while steering funds to a non-profit.

What did that CNN headline say?

Again, it doesn't matter how much coverage this gets, or what kind of coverage it gets. You have already made up your mind, and nothing will please you.

If she were white and a former Republican this would be wall to wall coverage with attempts to tie her to Trump.


Won't see this on MSDNC.
