Carol Costello, channeling Marc Cuban, asks hey, why doesn’t Trump just write himself a $200 million dollar check? Alex Conant (Rubio guy) says, in reply, Trump is on track to an embarrassing loss.
Costello has always been an insane never Trumper. I find her unwatchable. Not much news on cable news now. It’s all chattering class “analysis”
She's a brazen liar too, just like the rest of the CNN crew.
I think it was Larry Pratt of Gun Owners of America who was put in the hot seat for Carol's entertainment. She trotted out the 30,000 annual firearm deaths statistic (60% are suicides, most of the remaining 40% are justified self defense), and Pratt mentioned a CDC report that explored the defensive use of firearms. Costello said that was impossible, the CDC is forbidden by law from researching gun-related deaths. She was going to research that, she tells the audience. She'll drop the issue.
I'm on a temporary deviation from my "no teevee news" policy, for reasons unknown even to me! I am amazed at the dishonesty, which might in itself be the reason to watch the train wreck that is the news. Turner Classic Movies has grown a bit repetitive, and I'm just not into baseball this season.
