People who ordinarily couldn't tell you what cabinet positions even existed are living and dying with every nomination and confirmation hearing. Stressing over their qualifications.

People who previously didn't know there was a National Security Advisor, who it was or what he did, know who Mike Flynn is. They know in detail what he did wrong and what the Logan Act is.

Every minor staff member is a star.

So, Trump has done what social studies teachers have failed to do.

Cheers!

This is because the media is scrutinizing every pick unlike when it was 2009.

I don't recall the media covering a single minute of Obama's confirmation hearings.

This is like saying people are finally paying attention to hockey again because they hired Pee Wee Herman as their new commissioner...

Media is covering Trump like he has been quarantined for crimes against the media and in his shell has the true shroud of Jesus.

Cant spare a a dissertation every time a Trump supporter makes excuses or spins this shite show into a positive. Sometimes we just gotta laugh.

I was doing neither. Just making an observation.

If Flynn lied, he should've been fired. I've said that since this topic arose.

Is this a joke? The Republicans whined under Obama just as much as democrats are now about trump. Fox and CNN were watching that administration under a microscope the first 2 years, they just weren't insane like this one so nothing blew up in their face.

You don't think Trump has more people paying attention to politics?

My wife asked me about Mike Flynn today. My daughter asked me about Betsy Devos. Both are fairly apolitical.

Is this modern "conservative" thinking? Asking for a friend.

People also pay attention to car wrecks and dead bodies in the middle of the street. I fail to see this as a good thing.
