E. Jean Carroll and CNN - Random Snippets

It only took the jury 3 hours to call the lying liar out.  After two weeks of swimming in that muck, they determined the truth and went home.  I hope they treated themselves to nice, long showers.  

Hoisted by his own petard, his deposition damned him as he played golf in Scotland.  

His whining that he was precluded from testifying was laid to waste when the no-nonsense judge told him to show up or shut up.  

The jury awarded her money, even though she made no specific request.  

How brave of her to take him on, to share her secret with the world. 

How horrifying that the judge had to suggest that the jurors continue to remain anonymous.

Why is CNN giving the lying liar free media time?  

This is the same idiocy that propelled him to office in the first place.  Searching for ratings, unable to compete with MSNBC for the liberal crowd, perhaps sensing some weakness on the Fox front, CNN is once again validating the lying liar, giving him a platform, providing gravitas where there is only deceit.  

This isn't a debate; the lying liar has already made clear he won't be doing that again.  It's a Town Hall, and I bet there won't be anyone there asking him how he can defend the Big Lie.

This is propaganda, not news.

  1. "Why is [any media outlet] giving the lying liar free media time?" With you 100% on this. It's like saying, "We don't want to alienate our Flat Earth Society viewership, so we must keep mentioning with straight faces that some people believe the Earth to be flat." I did see that CNN's recent leadership change would likely lead them in this direction, but I am soooo past interest in hearing about DJT -- especially given how much everything about him, good or bad, becomes fodder for his supporters' outrage.

  2. CNN (and Chris Licht) is trying to outfox Fox and their ratings reflect it. All he'll get will be softball questions. And don't get me started on the guest list of Nazi anti Semites he's got coming.....................

  3. While they did not find The Lying Liar guilty of rape, the fast verdict and the $$$ finding was enough to make me jump for joy.
    I wasn't aware of CNN's Trump programming. I glimpsed something on FB and just jumped right over it. But yes, all the free TV attention Trump got in the previous campaign is what got him elected. Are we doomed to repeat the catastrophe?

    1. Yes, ma'am, we are.
      If it bleeds, it leads, and The Lying Liar is bleeding all over our democracy. We'll have Manchin and Synema messing things up and who knows where we'll be in 2025.
      I've ever been so glad to be old.
