Trump Haters are Sociopaths!

[governsleastgovernsbest]

Just ripping everyone off. Don’t give away my thing. I make millions this way.

[humblegunner]

Well.. you’re ripping off other people’s stuff and directing FR’s traffic to your blog to view the material you’ve stolen.

How exactly does that not make you a dirtbag?

[AndyTheBear]

His assessment of the speech may have been correct...but it was not politically correct.

[FenwickBabbitt]

They hate Trump even when he is propagating liberal Democrat world view and policy.

You sound as delusional as Berman, considering President Trump has done nothing even vaguely of the sort. He's easily the most conservative president we've had since Reagan.

[AnotherUnixGeek]

Guest host John Berman had to push back: “you know, Bob, though, that there will be people who look at that last comment you made and say you’re normalizing the president.”

And there we have the essence of mainstream news reporting in the US today - accurate or balanced reporting is an afterthought. What matters is maintaining the approved narrative, regardless of the damage it does to their own credibility.

CNN is a joke. NBC is a joke, as are the NY Times, WaPo, all of them. Keep spinning your tales, folks - no one takes you seriously anymore.

[pacificus]

Smells like a troll....!

[Pinkbell]

John Berman - colluding with Hillary on WikiLeaks.

Every day CNN gets more and more out of control and blatant with their bias. My mouth has dropped open multiple times watching them lose it.

I wouldn’t care if they would own it, but their viewers actually believe they are objective.

[ronnie raygun]

The mans tie is to tight, or maybe we should help him make it tighter

[Sarah Barracuda]

So this is what has happened to the American Media..say something POSITIVE about our President and essentially be told to shut up, we only allow anti Trump stuff here..this is really sad, and pathetic..yet these same fools want us to believe that they are neutral..yeah neutral my a@@..this is the same network that before Trump’s inauguration actually asked what would happen if someone offed Trump, would Hillary Clinton be able to swoop in and become President instead

[LeoWindhorse]

I hope that when Trump comes back he will totally NUKE the mainstream media . End the daily press briefing , Actuate law suits against those that purvey fake news . Go after Jeff Bezos for anti-trust violations . Obama used the IRS to intimidate his foes , now it should be the Lefties turn .
No quarter , no mercy . If they want war , give it to them .

[Spok]

NOT criticizing Trump will soon be a crime.

[independentmind]

Because we all know that CNN believes it’s mission is to demonize Trump.

[SE Mom]

Well done, Mark!

And your article is, as well:)

[papertyger]

Trump IS normal, you pipsqueak. It’s you who would have a hard time being normalized

Pay attention folks!

THIS "journalist" is what it looks like when that little bastard who closes his eyes, shakes his head, and alternatively hums loudly or repeats "no, no, no...," grows up and brings his childhood skills to polite society.

[chuck allen]

A minute and a half clip from an hour long show probably constitutes fair use, just like every excerpted article here is taken from another source and is considered fair use. Seems this guy is doing what FR does and I bet doesn’t make nearly as much as FR does.

[DoughtyOne]

Agreed.

[WMarshal]

Trump was “normalized” when America elected him president in a national election.

[agrace]

Oh for a like button!

I like the way you think-——
