Walz: "This is how government is supposed to work. It's not supposed to be one old man in the Oval Office sending out middle of the night tweets that shock markets into free fall. It's not supposed to be a bunch of 20 somethings unelected and firing everyone. It's not supposed to be chaos."

2). Why do we continually give the media a pass when they report the hypocrisy of politicians who support Trump before the cameras but express disdain of him when the lights go out. Honoring beliefs in protecting sources is best reserved for a time when our democracy is not tenuously balanced.
