If you think Trump’s “musings” and “jokes” are not worth headlines, no matter how shocking or offensive they may be, then you haven’t been paying attention. The past decade and past week show they're too dangerous too ignore. My new piece at @contrariannews.org www.contrariannews.org/p/dont-dismi...

Don’t Dismiss Trump’s Los Angeles-San Diego Comment as a ‘Joke’
No normal American would say those words. A president shouldn’t even think them.

You may be the hackiest reporter in a world of hacky reporters if you state a fact and then tell viewers "you can see if that's true or not." It's your *job* to know if what you just said is true or not. This is not acceptable cover for a lie.

This is actually a good story by the New York Times' Peter Baker. But as usual, the editors ran it through their Euphemism Desk so the headline talks about Trump "moving ethical lines" instead of saying flat-out that the president is deeply corrupt and is putting your money in his pocket.

The president’s decision to hold an international summit at his own private golf club, an idea rejected in his first term, illustrates how much he has shattered norms.
