Here's a perfect example of why Trump supporters disrupt @CNN. 1) "Trump's sagging popularity" isn't exactly a problem in Tennessee. Hate to tell you. 2) Phil Bredesen's "cross-party appeal" didn't show up last night. It's a closed primary, yet GOP... cnn.com/2018/08/02/pol…
Tennessee is a closed primary state. Yet, there wasn't an indication of a large GOP sit-out. This was a very lopsided primary vote. Just do some simple math. What percentage of the indie vote would Phil Bredesen need to win to beat Marsha Blackburn? The #TNSen will move from...
The #TNSen will move from "Slightly Republican" to a strong "Leans Republican."

Have to be honest, the biggest lie tonight was told by Chuck Schumer. After all the hogwash. The lie was "we all support border security."

That's not true. Let's see if Glenn Kessler has the guts.
Second, if he wants to be as effective as he can be, Donald Trump should spend a lot more time in serious mode, like we saw tonight. Now to Chuck Schumer and Nancy Pelosi...
Again, it always is very difficult to follow a president. But Schumer and Pelosi did not come across well, optically. They dismissed migrant human suffering and the deaths of Americans by calling it "manufactured."

They also appeared to concede the effectiveness of a border wall

1. If someone was elected promising "Hope and Change," but a corrupt status quo accepted him, then what hope was there for change?

None, and to think otherwise is self-delusion.

Real change comes at a cost to stability, and the status quo fights back. They don't roll over.
2. Now for the other side.

The election of one man to the presidency, a revolution does not make. If you were honest, wouldn't you admit that you are too easy on your party?

Everyone wants to blame an "other." But the corrupt status quo & its construct in D.C., are bipartisan.
3. Now for The New York Times, which I'm sure you figured out is the point of this thread.

Aside from their editor trashing them the other day for no longer being a news organization, if you consider them a reliable source of news, they you're a chump. An intel played, chump.

I have the same advice for Democrats re: AOC as I did for Republicans re: DJT.

Focus on policy and people, and shut your mouths long enough to maybe figure out why it is she resonates.

No one cares what you think. That's why we have them both.

Further...
Notice AOC criticizes but does not obsess over Donald Trump? She's substantively wrong but substantive, nonetheless.

She focuses on policy and people, something she ripped right from Donald Trump. No one cares if someone offends your delicate sensibilities. It's not about you...
Since no one really buys your "I'm so offended" holier/smarter than thou acts, people naturally begin to ask why these outsiders are met with such a visceral response.

B/C they don't buy the holier or smarter than thou acts, they conclude it is B/C they threaten a status quo...

#Trump's last campaign rally of the 2018 mid-term election season is scheduled to start in about ten minutes. It's his THIRD rally of the day. Dude is likely exhausted and I doubt this rally will be less "speech" and more "incoherent tirade".
At any rate, here's the thread for it! Follow/mute at will!
Current Pre-show music is the Rolling Stones' "Sympathy for the Devil." I couldn't make this up if I tried.

A budget is a statement of priorities and values, and #TrumpBudget has made it abundantly clear that Trump does not care about the health of our families, our communities, our oceans, our rivers, or our public lands or keeping toxics away from our kids or out of our air and water
It seems like the only things the people in the Trump Administration care about are their own self-interest and the corporate polluters and billionaires that are running this administration. #TrumpBudget
Here’s a perfect example of the Trump Administration’s values. Just yesterday, it was reported that Scott Pruitt has spent over $100,000 in taxpayer dollars flying in luxury around the world... washingtonpost.com/national/healt…

Trump Hotels' website still lists Trump SoHo New York among its properties in the Our Hotels menu. Select its name though to access its page and there's a message about it being renamed

Two errors in the 2nd graf of Breitbart's Trump Hotel DC article:
-holdings aren't out of @realDonaldTrump's hands: trust isn't blind & he can profit from it
-Trump Org told Congress it was estimating foreign receipts—not auto donating in full
