CNN - Trump Town Hall

Nope.

Trump is talking. Strike one.

It's on CNN. Strike two.

It's a town hall, so somehow the questions will be even stupider than if actual reporters asked them. Strike 3 and I'M OUT.

I'm intrigued. Haven't watched CNN in 7 years and I'm interested to see what kind of deal they made with Trump. Are they really trying to turn the corner towards the center, or are they still just deep state regurgitators? It will take years to rebuild the brand but you have to start somewhere. And no one better than Trump to bring in the ratings.

It would be more interesting if it was a mixed audience but I read it would be an audience of NH Repubs and Independents, so he probably won't get the toughest questions. I'd watch but flying to Colorado tomorrow for three days of meetings in Estes Park and we'll all be at a bar tomorrow night.

Report back on how it goes.

CNN is going to embrace Trump and soar in the rating

I loved CNN back in the day when they were reporting news and not trying to make or create news

Get rid of Joy Reid the crazy one and I might watch some

It'll take more than that for me, but yes, that is a necessary first step.

What kind of deal did they strike?

I'm sure there is a stipulation that Trump can't call CNN "Fake News".

But I'm wondering what did CNN promise Trump? Fair coverage? I don't think that would have been enough of a guarantee to get him back on CNN. There had to be something else they pledged to him?

They want Trump to win the primary. This helps him do that. Because they know if Trump wins the primary, a democrat retains the White House. It’s not complicated. So I’m sure they gave him some assurances of fair treatment and a friendly audience.

My vote is not based on what "They" want.

The same way my toddlers don't get what they want when they pitch a fit.

Who else is going to win the primary? Desantis is cooking his own goose, Haley is boring. Who? Ted Cruz? LMAO
 
Oh we’re probably stuck with Trump and we will lose in 2024. I’ll just vote down ballot and hope we keep a split congress so stupid lefty legislation doesn’t pass.
Thoughts on GOP wanting to negotiate the debt ceiling?

I don’t like it, but they don’t have any other leverage to get anything done. Two of the proposed changes were basically universally agreed on by dems on this board yesterday. So perhaps both sides can make good, logical, fiscally responsible changes through this and actually help the country.

yah but when the loan shark comes to break your knees, its passed t he time to negotiate. Im for paying our bills, we can debate funding at the normal scheduled time. Congress is broken, but their negligence can't be gamified to worse outcomes. Its ridiculous how bad these fools have become at governance
 
Tonight CNN will have the highest ratings since ________________?

im guessing since March 2020 or so when covid hit.
 
It’s a crowd of 400 republicans cheering him on as he recounts the sexual assault case, and Collins is getting steamrolled by him.

So it’s going about as expected

Split government is the best Government. No one gets what they want and they leave us alone for the most part …. Of course the amount of EOs in the last 3 administrations is alarming.

Back in the Gulf War when the Scud Stud took off his shirt and showed his hairy sweaty chest to the LGBTXYZ Plus Club live from the Middle East

Biden really cannot negotiate here. It’s the same reason we don’t negotiate with terrorists. If you do it this year, you will be doing it again next year.
 
Trump was very presidential, honest and made a lot of common sense with his statements. He also treated the rude host who was pushing a negative agenda better than she deserved to be.

The liberal meltdowns on twitter this morning are amazing. Lots of butt hurt liberal tears this AM.

What it does show though is the GOP would be f*cking stupid to trot Trump out as the candidate. No one unites the left like he does.

I thought the same thing about executive orders until I read a report on it a year or so ago. In the era of social media, every presidential action is known the moment it becomes an idea. Before social media and especially television, Americans simply trusted their president and read the newspapers to stay as informed as possible. Most folks had no idea.

This is it. The minute Trump opens his mouth, people remember why they hate him. I personally have a visceral reaction to him. If he could ever show a minute amount of personal responsibility he could possibly sway people, but his insistence on doubling down will fire the left up.
