The cable stations are really the only ones scheduling 2 minute hates. There is a lot of general interest in the stuff getting spewed by Giuliani, which has opened about ten cans of worms at once, but otherwise the national news is not dedicated to criticizing the Pres. At least I haven't seen that.They actually have become numb to the relentless MSM assault on him and his supporters.Indeed, Trump divines his own truth seemingly without consequences. And Americans have become largely indifferent to the daily barrage of lies and scandals. Sad
Washington (CNN) Donald Trump has learned he can get away with anything.
While the President has always profited from creating his own reality, the impact of having a commander in chief who so frequently bends fact is only beginning to be understood.
Before Trump, the idea of having a President who habitually fails to tell the truth and survives would have been unthinkable. But it's becoming clear that Trump's tenure is not just a lesson in fractured presidential convention. It amounts to a unique challenge to the office of the presidency itself, to the institutions that underpin American democracy and the long-held idea that government can only function effectively if it has the trust of the governed.
The most shocking aspect of the President's latest flurry of untruths in recent days relating to events before the 2016 election is that they were not at all shocking to a nation numbed by his barrage of easily disprovable claims and statements.
Revelations that Trump dictated a doctor's report on his health before voters went to the polls and his ever-shifting story on a hush payment made to porn star Stormy Daniels might have been a debilitating blow to any normal politician.
In Trump's case, they were simply more of the same flurry of daily controversies that characterize his presidency. While his critics reacted with outrage, his supporters saw media fact checks as just more "fake news."

They actually have become numb to the relentless MSM assault on him and his supporters.
You idiots have been crying wolf since the day after the election, so most people who disagree with you have tuned you out, and most of the people who do agree with you have become tired of the constant rhetoric and just can't keep up the repeating 2 minute hates scheduled by the MSM.
Yes, that too, as well as numb to Trump's babble.
Some of us are less concerned about him talking like the blowhard we knew he was, and more concerned about what he can do policy-wise.
maybe because you don't want to see it.
