Might have been better to say nothing rather than do a Susan Collins imitation.
Press call with Chuck Schumer says he has been talking with his caucus "I've been talking to so many members of my caucus today. Everybody is very, very just totally, totally, totally troubled."

What's funny is that it is pointing at a major flaw in trump's character. The guy literally fell asleep standing during his own conferences later because he couldn't control his impulse and appetite to speak with journalists and took a call at 4am. Doesn't seem ideal!

Also, Trump "unfiltered" is just a bozo being lazy and unprepared.
But people want to think that not having a filter = "authentic"

Trump is really good at lying without thinking/hesitation. Whatever will get him to his desired ends.

They’re so mad at Joe Biden for not giving them the access they needed to further their careers, that they’re still writing about it. A year after Biden was forced out!
Reporter Says Biden Aide ‘Screamed’ at Him Just for Calling Ex-President
A reporter’s call with former President Joe Biden earlier this year angered his top aides so much that they aggressively confronted the reporter and then changed Biden’s cell number. The incident—anot...

I still remember that one complaint of the Biden years was that they wouldn’t immediately answer questions and would instead refer them to the experts who could. And they used this to say they weren’t answering questions!

Exclusive: in a 4:30am telephone conversation, President Trump told me to tune into a press conference later that day.

Speaking with the president is not the same as getting newsworthy information from the president. And Trump's dishonesty can often lead to unhelpful "Trump said" articles, in which what he says is centered, rather than the truth. I suspect it also leads to the excessive emphasis on Trump's moods.

Comically over-lawyered and under-inspiring. Just resign, man. Take a lobbying job or something.

This is why Democrats look to a mayor like Zohran Mamdani for national leadership.

Rep. Seth Moulton comes on CNN and starts by saying: "Is anyone going to just stop for a second and be honest? This is insane. What the hell are we doing? We've got a lot of problems in America today, and invading / occupying / running Venezuela does not solve any of them."

We are a country whose Constitution, according to the Supreme Court, gives our own presidents immunity for crimes committed while in office, but we will prosecute presidents of other countries for alleged crimes and invade them to execute arrest warrants.

It’s crazy how so many in media stayed away from talking about Trump’s obvious mental and physical decline explicitly when some of us have been beating the drum about it for a few years relentlessly, but after a legacy outlet (WSJ) does a story now it’s suddenly ok to go there.

"Half the harm that is done in this world
is due to people who want to feel important.
They don't mean to do harm,
but the harm does not interest them.
Or they do not see it, or they justify it
because they are absorbed in the endless struggle
to think well of themselves."

Cultists have an easier time brain-washing their flock if they can first isolate them. Alt-right media anchors talk to their audience like they're friends, when really, they're persuading them that what the corporate owners want is what's best for the country.

Quite simple really. Stop tuning in to cbs news, and watch the advertisers go "wtf". It's a business. Even souless billionaires like Ellison can read a balance sheet. Take the business away. I see cbs news being relegated to Rag Status.
