The American people know the truth.
Again, we'll see in November. Until then, I recommend praising civility when trump shows some rather than praising his more childish antics.

I like honesty, and it's hard to be honest with others if you're not even honest with yourself.

I have never, ever said that President Trump is demonstrating any form of civility whatsoever. Make an honest argument. No one on the Left has any place to state that their actions have been any more noble than his. The entire system is reprehensible. And the American people know this. And they will decide accordingly.
Joe Biden does not have even the most remote chance of being president. He can barely form a coherent sentence on a consistent basis. I personally think the Democratic Party is carefully trying to position Governor Cuomo for a last minute bid. And I do think he has a chance to unseat President Trump if he positions himself as a centrist.

Sorry, no sale. I have been consistent in my argument. Integrity is the bedrock of my profession.

Make an honest argument.
quote:Sadly, he has a much better chance than you believe, I'm afraid. That is how badly Trump is alienating people other than his base, and he can't win with his base alone. Also you underestimate the number of people who would absolutely never vote trump, but who stayed home 4 years ago because they didn't think he had a chance. Trump has motivated the frick out of those people.

Biden is Trump's best chance to win, and I put it around 50/50 at this point. Now, if Trump would show even the slightest bit of maturity he could put it away.

If he can't even handle what reporters throw at him without acting like a pussy on twitter ("they're so unfair!"), how can you trust him to handle matters of global importance without his feelings getting in the way?
HE IS HANDLING matters of global importance without his feelings getting in the way. But you CHOOSE to ignore it.
I guess b/c you don't like Trump fighting back. Or the style with which he responds. 
So you really & truly ARE:
style over substance
process over results
Which will ultimately lead to fascism over freedom. What the hell do you think the democrats will do with power!?

maybe the press and the president should be held to slightly different standards.
Why? Shouldn't the press be held to a higher standard (in terms of reporting) than a president...who is, afterall, a politician. We know all politicians lie to a degree. Why does the press get a pass? The American people depend on them (or at least used to). Half the country doesn't even like the president.

Show respect, get respect. Crazy how that works.
When did the press EVER show Trump respect? He was being gaslit since election day. Not inauguration: ELECTION DAY!!!
Guess if they wanted respect, they should have shown some. Crazy how that works, huh?

Sure! Me too! Works both ways but different obligations.
President: running the country
Press: informing the country
I'd venture to say the press has more of a responsibility in being fair, balanced, truthful, and relentless in investigation. The press is around long before & after any president.

quote:Great, as long as we all understand that "fair" doesn't mean they shouldn't be meanies to anyone. And "balanced" doesn't mean positive and negative stories in equal measure. Nor does it mean positive stories about dems and repubs in equal measure. Because that last one, "truthful", determines what "fair" and "balanced" mean.

Sorry that you do not possess the ability to see that I called out his actions multiple times. That is your loss.
