cutting away and taking the power of visibility away from Trump and his cult once they go full meme mode is the most effective way to handle the trolling




No... cutting away is showing the entire world that you're biased. ^^

CNNs job is to report the news, not decide what folks should see.

They don't have to show any of it. Birther King shouting memes at a rally isn't news. If they want to cover it or not is their deal and the same for showing that nonsense

You deal with it. CNN is fucking up. This isn't some off the wall candidate. This is the candidate that the entire Democratic party is going insane trying to figure out how to beat.
CNN is biased. There's no argument about that.

ahhh the old bait and switch.

this fucking story reads like an episode of Law and Order. i'm surprised there aren't identical twins trying to exploit double jeopardy with the old double confession trick.

actually a case i observed in undergrad tried similar. Undercover cop bought drugs off the accused, who lived in a trailer with about 5 relatives. all 5 of them in court, and all 5 were pudgy 5'5"-ish white people with light brown mullets. Their defense? since they all look the same the accuser couldn't possibly identify who sold him the drugs. Since then i've been convinced they spent months all growing their hair out and got it all cut identically for court. I'm not sure what fucking public defender jumped on that grenade of a case but im sure he said to plea and then said "well this if fucking stupid but if you wont plea....."

I already have the mental image of Steven Hill chewing out Sam Waterston about being so stupid. "Give him the deal".
shortly followed by hang'em high mccoy flipping the script and suing the CEO's of the company that manufactured the breathing tubes for negligent homicide
