    So in watching the Sunday morning political shows listening to the Press circle the wagons and scream about accuracy in reporting this wasn't mentioned. Must have been short for time.

        You know I have plenty of people in my 'sphere of webitude' that are across a wide range of liberalism, socialism, even a couple of well meaning communists here and there - this is the first I've heard about an MLK bust being moved.

        Also, got to love that little gem from the new press sec:

        "A reminder of the media danger of tweet first check facts later" - does that apply only to media, or presidents also? 😉

          Like reporting on the phony story of the woman who said she was groped in first class or the 13 year old child that was raped by Donald Trump or even BuzzFeed bullshit about pissing on Obama's bed that was pimped by CNN.

          The trend is, for the Trump haters, to write the dirty story first then shrug their shoulders and say oh well.

          If weekly world news runs a story about Obama putting together his own Army of brown shirts that's one thing. If the New York time runs with it and then says oops it's completely different.

            Trump has to try and learn to be more thick skinned, but I doubt he will be. The press will exploit this weakness at every opportunity. He needs a strong person to tell him the way it is and how to respond. So far no one has taken on t hat responsibility it seems.

                      Any rich man is going to have a big ego. I think it's difficult for him to let all the slander and libel slide, and I understand that because it is slander and libel, but it's not going away. He's gonna have to be able to ignore it or he's gonna implode.

                      Early man walked away as modern man took control. Their minds weren't all the same and to conquer was their goal. So He built his great empires and he slaughtered his own kind, and he died a confused man and killed himself in his own mind...

                            Slander isn't calling Rosie O'Donnell a fat pig. Slander is saying someone is guilty of rape and sexual assault, which is a crime, with no conviction.

                                  Hey, Breitbart said it

                                  http://www.breitbart.com/big-government/2015/06/19/donald-trump-king-of-trolling-his-critics-should-be-the-internets-choice-for-president/

                                  and Trump was the "internet's" choice. But I feel "they" will quickly get bored again. At this point last year Ed was just jokingly supporting Trump. A lot can change.

                                          wait, ... he didn't refer to them by name, your point is feeble.

                                          Just because you and others "think" he was saying they committed

                                          the acts, doesn't mean diddley dung.
