Mueller most likely cares about it. Trump admitted to blackmail via twitter today. Scarborough has texts and phone call logs to prove it. This could result in High Crimes & Misdemeanors - an impeachable offense.

Trump's criminal defense attorneys are going to be working OT this weekend.

Wonder how long until Scarborough is interviewed by investigators and his text and phone records are requested.

It's not just blanket "indefensible." If Trump said this while running his reality show, I'd have no issue with it, other than thinking it was tacky to attack a woman's appearance, but whatever. It would be one private citizen attacking another.

Having money, being from money, and anchoring a news channel show are not REMOTELY equal to being the President of the United States, the Chancellor of Germany, the PM of Canada... you following me here?

And, my comparison to a Police Chief attacking a citizen in a town is EXACTLY a valid comparison. How about Police Chief attacks the local owner of a prominent business?

There you go. It's not appropriate. Police Chief has authority. Businessman may have clout, but does not have authority.

That's the Mika/Trump thing in a nutshell. Mika has clout. She has no authority.

Trump has both and is the President of what is arguably the most powerful country in the world and you think it's okay if he makes fun of a woman's face on Twitter because she called him out for posting fake TIME magazine covers in his golf clubs?

Whoa.

You cannot be serious.
Responses.
  • If haven't run into a person outside of this forum that cares about it or even knows how Mika Brezinski might be.
  • Indefensible means indefensible. You attempt to defend someone simply because they are against Trump.
  • Your police chief example is a red herring. You make up a hypothetical generality to address a specific instance.
  • You think it's OK for a major News network to make up lies about the President. It's a double standard.

They did this about a week before the election when the Access Hollywood stuff came out.

How did that work for them on Nov. 8th?

Don't recall any dancing then. At least not at the Javits center. LOL

If you can't see the difference between a TV pundit on a cable channel and the PRESIDENT and leader of the free world then you are being total disingenuous. Come on now, Kitty, get real and defend your man on the merits (or lack thereof) of what he tweeted to Mica. Can't do it, can you.

You are defending it when Mika Brenzski does exactly the same thing and who started it.

Indefensible means indefensible. You can't have it both ways.

Another day, another fake outrage from the left.

No one cares. The general population does not care.

Nonstop complaining about Trump is not going to win you 2018 or 2020 because no one cares what Trump tweets, let alone even knows what Trump tweets.

No. One. Cares.

Indefensible is Indefensible. Except when used against Trump according to the Trump haters.

The man who loves to call the media fake news, have fake Time magazine covers. Then gets mad when he is called out on that.
