IOW the Huff post has made a POLITICAL endorsement.

If Trump prevails, he won’t do “turn the other cheek” routine. In fact, I hope he calls for an investigation into the corruption, blackmail, and extortion in media.

The HuffPo has been covering Trump everyday with one article after another. They will never keep this promise. :-)

HuffPo... The Huffington Post... a far left moonbat/dingbat web site that pretends it’s relevant.

Good post. I’m with the Huff Po on this one. He’s campaigning as a joke and saying exactly what will get him the most attention, but doesn’t mean a word of it. Krauthammer’s “rodeo clown” describes him well, at least when it comes to politics.

“This is a sign of their primal, brainstemmy fear that Trump might win POTUS.”

This sounds about right. When Trump first started breaking all the PC rules the MSM thought they could cow him into an apology. He not only refused to back down—his poll numbers jumped.

Now for the MSM it’s like that point in the Ghostbusters movie where they say, ‘OK; the usual stuff isn’t working.’

And they don’t know what to do.

Who cares what they do? Now if Drudge said that it would matter... but - come on - Huffington?

The Donald leaves O’Donnell carcass on the side of the road.

GOP presidential candidate Donald Trump is calling off his bet of one year’s salary with MSNBC host Lawrence O’Donnell over the accuracy of Trump’s financial disclosure forms.

“Well, I’m very disappointed, because I was really all set to go after him this morning,” Trump said Friday on “Morning Joe.” “But it’s hard to do that now. And now I feel guilty if I do that.”

Trump issued the bet on Thursday after O’Donnell accused him of lying about profits he made making “The Apprentice,” his former NBC show.

Huff-Po will always be a 3 ring circus smelling of elephant dung...

“we have decided we won’t report on Trump’s campaign as part of The Huffington Post’s political coverage. Instead, we will cover his campaign as part of our Entertainment section. Our reason is simple: Trump’s campaign is a sideshow. We won’t take the bait. If you are interested in what The Donald has to say, you’ll find it next to our stories on the Kardashians and The Bachelorette.”

That’s ironic. When, as a change of pace, I want levity and nonsense instead of hard news, I look to Mad magazine and HuffPo.

Just as well, then they CANNOT mold public opinion about Trump...and I doubt a man worth $10B needs a second-rate website to get his word out.

HA, I realize this may be old news at this point, but I wanted to sort of wrap up the thread with the response Trump posted on his Facebook page after HuffPo. Good stuff (scroll down a bit to July 17th):

https://www.facebook.com/DonaldTrump

Donald J. Trump Response to Huffington Post

Mr. Trump is number one in the unimportant Huffington Post poll, along with all other recently released polls including Reuters, FOX, USA Today/Suffolk University and The Economist.

Mr. Trump is in first place in Nevada, where he is also number one, by a wide margin, with Hispanics. He is number one in North Carolina and expects to win Iowa and New Hampshire.

Mr. Trump singlehandedly raised the issue of illegal immigration and started a national conversation about what has turned out to be one of the most important topics of this election cycle.

Likewise, Mr. Trump is the leader on issues such as the terrible United States trade deals, strengthening our military, taking care of our great Vets and the repeal and replacement of Obamacare.

If you read previously written Tweets, Mr. Trump has never been a fan of Arianna Huffington or the money-losing Huffington Post.

The only clown show in this scenario is the Huffington Post pretending to be a legitimate news source. Mr. Trump is not focused on being covered by a glorified blog. He is focused on Making America Great Again.
