Dan Rather: Media Must Publicly Shame Donald Trump Supporters
Breitbart ^ | 8/10/2016 | Charlie Spiering

Posted on 08/10/2016 2:44:21 PM PDT by bkopto

Rather appeared horrified by Trump’s comment, struggling to explain his shock.

“By any objective analysis, this is a new low and unprecedented in the history of American presidential politics,” he said.

Rather challenged the media to hold Trump accountable for his words, urging them to do more to try to shame his supporters.

“We will see whether major newscasts explain how grave and unprecedented this is and whether the headlines in tomorrow’s newspapers do it justice,” he said. “We will soon know whether anyone who has publicly supported Trump explains how they can continue to do.”

It’s for the better. My brother is a darn good attorney and said there was NOTHING in Trump’s statement that any sane prosecutor would touch. Not even a misdemeanor.

Shame me? Shame me?!?!!

They’re kidding right?

If by shame, the mean chase them off my property with a baseball bat, then yes, they would shame me.

Well, it looks like the MSM has rummaged through the trashcan and resurrected Fake-but-Accurate Dan Rather. There’s an old saying: For every trashcan there is a lid .... Fake-but-Accurate being the MSM’s lid.

Does the media even try to hide it anymore?

Dan, there is no one, I repeat, no one, in the media who has the moral authority to shame anyone, especially you. And if they were to try, I would only tell them that they are a prick, like you are.

Do you really think you can shame me? I can be reached only by logic and reason, and you don’t have the ability to do that.

Hey, Dan, your blind zeal to attack George Bush even to the point of fabricating lies cost you your job at CBS. Please crawl back under your rock and speak only when spoken to.

Dan Rather! Is that old fart STILL around? Like Jimmy Carter, he just won’t go away. It must be awful to crave attention that bad.

The days are coming when everyone must, or shall, take it upon themselves to organize a day or longer to go full out support for Trump, maybe just a magnetic sign on your car or truck, a banner, keep mobile or if parked stay with it, the enemy has no limitations.

One big day, a massive pro Trump support all across America, let them know whats behind every blade of grass.
