    This is one of the things I don’t get. One of the big reasons Trump got such a huge boost in polls was because every time he did anything ridiculous and godawful, every news outlet reported on it. Putting his name on everyone’s tongue. And every single one of these fuckers does the same thing. They do ridiculous outrageous awful things, everyone reports on it, and so they get more of the news cycle than anything else.

      It’s also kind of disgusting that people voted for him despite all the shit he’s on the record saying and doing.
