>>Deploying thousands of military troops to intercept a caravan of asylum seeking refugees? That’s yesterday’s news. That's part and parcel to what this whole thing is about. I'm just going to keep posting this in here. -A major news outlet had one of their major White House reporter's press pass revoked. -The President's press secretary cited a doctored/edited video as evidence of the behavior that resulted in this revocation while using pointedly misleading language about what most people objectively agree happened. -The President of the United States has been on a 3 year long campaign to sew distrust in media sources he doesn't feel portray him favorably. -The President of the United States has blatantly and openly lied about information he felt was affecting his policy making, causing many people on both sides of the aisle to distrust his ability to objectively lead the country. This interaction occurred during a press conference in which the President was again repeating blatant lie, as well as the less offensive ignoring and misdirection of unfavorable questions. It's possible people are fighting about did he hit her (he did not. he did not hit her. Oh hi Mark) but I'm also seeing plenty of people, possibly even MORE people, discussing the implications of this behavior and attack on the 4th estate. I have opinions about who's trying to shift the conversation to the attack/not attack on the intern, but that's just speculation really. Point is: there's plenty of useful discourse going on, and throwing up some whaddaboutism that there are bigger world issues seems unhelpful.
