If you're wondering why this act of murder seems to be gaining more traction than others it's because politicians and the media decided to make it a big deal. You have to do that from time to time instead of always going "lol fml freal though" 24/7.

Remember Jon Lovitz's "Master Thespian" character on SNL? He would overact scene to an absurd degree, look at the camera, and shout "Acting!"
I picture Nuzzi typing this stuff, leaping up out of her chair, and shouting "Writing!"

Trump: "It’s a hellhole right now. And those Somalians should be out of here. They've destroyed our country. And all they do is complain, complain, complain. You have her. She’s always talking about the Constitution provides me with – go back to your own country and figure out your constitution."

At some point you realize that the prominent, powerful people you see on your screens are mostly morons who either got lucky or are saying things billionaires want to hear, and that nobody smart or competent is in charge, and we're all just collectively flailing, and it's a miracle anything works.

Democratic politicians need to stop accepting Trump’s white nationalist premise that immigration is bad and proudly and loudly make a positive case for why America’s identity and history as a nation of immigrants is so important.

One reason: In mainstream political journalism, your bosses reward you for coming off as dry, unsurprisable, immune to alarm. "Everybody needs to calm down" is a signal to them that you are not volatile, and thus not prone to bad judgment. This is exactly what should not be rewarded right now. >

Yesterday the President fell asleep, yet again, during a televised fake Cabinet meeting staged so that each of his courtiers could heap praise on him, praise for which he couldn't stay conscious. He woke up just long enough to spew racism. Why is this not being treated as an emergency? >

Why is Andrew Ross Sorkin hosting Erika Kirk at the Dealbook Summit?
Honest line of inquiry - what could she possibly elevate about macroeconomic factors that's so important it crowds out her organization's relentless bigotry?
