    Fuck me, I want this shit to end already. He was in Florida to campaign for his fellow pedophile/sexual predator, ffs. He’s a pathological liar who has never apologized once in his pathetic fucking life, yet he has the balls to call other people out when they make a mistake.

    Do the world a favor and choke on your denture, you sad fuck-monkey.

      AND the guy is an Alabamian. Pathetic. I live the next two cities over but it was too cold to go and protest. Those dummies don’t listen anyway.

      You know I can’t remember the last time I hated someone much less wasted energy actively hating them.

      This guy is a menace, and not good for my soul...

    Dave Weigel is a good reporter. Back in his Slate days, when he did more pundit-type stuff, he made it pretty clear he was more libertarian than liberal. He tweeted something from his personal account, realized it was incorrect, deleted it, and apologized. Which is a much, MUCH higher standard than Trump holds himself to. Trump tells crazy lies on Twitter and in person just about every day, but he’s calling for Weigel to be fired for an honest mistake on his personal account? Ridiculous. Insane. Dangerous. Classic Trump.

    Meanwhile, Trump spends 4 to 8 hours a day watching TV - according to his own aides and staffers. General/Chief of Staff Kelly struggles to get him to come to work by 9:30 AM, and he works in the same building he lives! If one of these guys deserves to be fired, it sure ain’t Weigel.

      Yeah, I like Weigel. My Twitter feed tends to be composed of a lot of liberal outrage* mixed with some straight-ahead reporting. It’s nice to have a different voice every now and again.

      *That’s on purpose. I’m a hippie dipshit liberal and I tend to be outraged most of the time these days.

      He also just published a book on prog rock. I’m not a fan of prog rock but the existence of the book made me like Weigel even more.

    Oh, for fuck’s sake.

    Has Trump ever apologized even once for his *deliberate* lies....?

    Why bother. Next time just respond with, “people are SAYING” and “well, that’s what I heard,” and consider the matter settled, like Trump does.

    What does he seek to gain from this? Showing his ass on Twitter over a simple error? He spends all this time getting into fights on Twitter like some idiot teenager, instead of, I dunno, doing his job as president and running the goddamn country! But I’m not surprised. Donald Trump is no president. He’s no leader. He’s just a guy who ran for office because, like Scar from the Lion King (and Simba in Act I), he thought being in charge meant doing whatever he wanted. He had no intentions of helping anyone but himself.

    Right now, this country doesn’t have a president. Not with that rat bastard in the Oval Office.

      I prefer Robin Hood as the Disney analogy for Trump: Prince John.

      He’s orange, weak, thin-skinned, ineffective, immature, obsessed with himself, obsessed with money, weirdly sexually obsessed with a female family member, inexperienced, illegitimate, surrounded by sycophantic snakes and schemers, and is an all-around hateful piece of shit.

      Yeah but if everybody tweets inaccurate stuff about him, we can keep him tied up responding to them so he hasn’t got any time to do any damage.

    Good for Weigel for correcting himself and apologizing, which was the responsible thing to do. Now if Trump would like to pick any one of a thousand lies to correct and apologize for, that would be a start.

      Weigel did what any reporter or valid news organization should and does do whenever they make a mistake. The administration and Fox News do not and willfully make shit up to confuse and distract. I’m glad Weigel is honorable enough to apologize but they don’t deserve his sense of decency.

    Meanwhile, at the rally in question, Trump continued telling his lie about winning the election in a landslide (lost popular vote by 3 million, 46th ranked electoral college margin of victory).

    Everyone else (with exemptions for Fox News, Breitbart, and other right wing media) has to be perfect at all times or they will get pounced upon as FAKE NEWS but the president runs around lying non fucking stop.

      A woman with mood disorders who worked in the porn industry recently ended her own life. Prior to the incident, people mistreated her on Twitter. This almost certainly contributed to her decision, however suicide is a complicated issue and we should always be careful about placing the entire blame on the most recent incident that the person experienced.

    The entire world should recoil in shame and disgust when Daffy Don starts with his gassy rage tweets but apparently some people like it because “liberals”, whatever the hell that means. They guy has thus far been way, way more of a flatulent joke than even I thought he’d be, which is really saying something. That doughy pink tub of scamming lying lard is a living cartoon, he’s almost too absurd and idiotic to be real.

      That’s the main reason the loons that voted for him voted for him. In their book he’s doing an amazing job. They have no sense of shame.
