The dozens of comments below this Rather "bright light" show how INCREDIBLY FAR APART people are today.

It is amazing how the LEFT can call us the FACISTS.

*****************

Dan Ratherisms:

“No matter who you support, I think the anxiety in this country is as nervous as bird dogs in a duck bind.”

“The difference between “too close to call” and “too early to call” is the difference between looking for a Xanax and looking for a beer."

I suspect what he really understood and was desperately trying to derail is that the people of the US have never before been so aware of the corruption. Hunter’s $50,000+ a month was quite a revelation. The the Rats blew it by acting like it was just “business as usual”. Seriously unforced error and they are still standing there with their golf cleats in their dick.

But it was ok when Rather sided with the Viet Cong against American Troops while he was a CBS reporter in Viet Nam.

Oh, he was a so-called journalist, so never mind. It’s all OK with them.

From a month or so ago Dan spews ...

A feeling of “extreme nationalism” has gripped the United States, according to former CBS News anchor Dan Rather. “We have our differences and President Trump has found it to his … advantage to exploit those differences,” Rather said during an interview Thursday morning on MSNBC’s Morning Joe while promoting his new book. Rather continued: We’re in danger of sliding from extreme nationalism into tribalism.

I thought he was bragging about his past contributions.

Another ‘fake but accurate’ missive from a washed up commie hack!

Yes, the Democrats ARE being exposed as the corrupt party they have been for decades.

The more President Trump reveals, the more people WILL know.

Dems are toast in 2020. I don’t see them coming back to power for a long while. Weakest bench I’ve ever seen, secrets and lies being revealed daily...stay tuned (but NOT to Rather!)

And, Good!

It seems to me the majority of the left is Do as I say NOT as I do type of people! We should not be millionaires but they should since they know better, etc. They make me sick.

Dear Dan Rather:

I remember a time when you were in the self-appointed spotlight, unsteady, adrift, unhinged, corrupt, and incompetent. FR helped to knock you off the pedestal with your ‘fake but accurate’ attack on a Presidential candidate. Thank you FReeper Buckhead.

Corrupt? How about the Podesta family, the Clinton family, the Biden family, the Pelosi family, the Feinstein family, the Kerry family, Kemala Harris, Menendez, diBlasio, and all their handlers, and how did the multi-million Obama family make their money?

"I cannot remember a time when the world saw the United States this unsteady, adrift, corrupt, or incompetent."

I agree, but I believe President Trump has made great strides in righting those impressions. He has a lot of damage to un-do from 8 years of bammy and his cohorts in crime. The ongoing efforts of the leftists - attempts to undermine a duly elected President - cannot be helping our image either. The corruption of the left is on full display, not just in the US, around the world people are noticing too.

No Dan, most Americans trust the President, but hate the media...You guys broke it, you bought it, now deal with it — Keep in mind every lie you tell, every story you spin, you only make our support for the President stronger and our numbers continue to swell. You’re just mad because no one is buying the BS you peddle anymore, except for the left.

#MAGA — President Trump, four more years, in spite of the lying media’s best efforts and the corrupt dems in congress.

Yes exactly, Dan.

We're great and you suck, to paraphrase the great philosopher Al Yankovic.

My Selectric ball cannot find all the proper letters to formulate the words I typed trying to express my disgust with Dan Rather.
