Too many bullet points

However, the mention of Trump will keep him reading, but you need that mention to be in the first 3 bullets to be effective

I think it might seriously be useful adapting rhyming schemes and stuff to help Trump both believe and remember new information.

CNN saying spicey, who is a devout catholic, had to stay behind in his hotel when president moron met the pope.

I'm guessing he forgot to greet trump with the required "good morning sir, and may I congratulate you on your electoral college win"

Probably too late for that to matter in the election. Republicans probably jizzing themselves he took out a reporter anyway.

Is he beyond being arrested or something? Body slamming someone with tons of witnesses and video evidence should be a pretty easy arrest.

Obviously they're focused on real crimes like marijuana possession and people being undocumented.

I don't know if Tom is correct that Trump is the ultimate undefeatable post-fact President or if the olds are going to absolutely decimate the GOP but man what a ****ing gamble, olds and their health care, turning Medicare into a premium support scheme for tens of millions of people, that's gotta be like the last remaining true Third Rail before Social Security.

If the GOP can get this one through and survive to tell the tale it's like the end of the Republic. You can torture, you can bomb and invade indiscriminately, you can give infowars a press pass, you can rage tweet all day, you can brag about sexual assault, you can say the old President was a Kenyan imposter who wiretapped you, you can fire all the law enforcement directors, you can tell Russia our dirties ****ing laundry but if Trump and Paul Ryan and Mitch McConnell can uninsure 15 million olds and maintain control after 2018/2020, then that's it, game over, fold up shop, there is no stopping these guys.

They will just blame liberals. It will work when combined with aggressive vote suppression.

Yeah, wonder if body slam is what people will call it after seeing the video.

Edit: Apparently police are investigating according to witness reporter on Anderson Cooper.

I disagree - going from "no opinion," to a negative opinion makes them more likely to vote against him/Republicans in '18/20 as opposed to staying home.

And Backus wrote that toward the end of the candidate’s talk, a man in the audience said to Gianforte, “Our biggest enemy is the news media” and asked, “How can we rein in the news media?” The man followed up his question by turning to Backus, who was sitting next to him, and “raised his hands as if he would like to wring his neck.”

Gianforte smiled, pointed at the reporter and said this: “We have someone right here. It seems like there is more of us than there is of him. I don’t have a simple solution for you. I will say that doing town hall meetings and getting out and visiting with people is very important.”
