    Media Calls Open Season on Trump Hyperbole

    They live in a small world and if they aren't careful, it could get a lot smaller - MSNBC is a perfect example. IMO

    Media Calls Open Season on Trump Hyperbole

    NBC's Katie Tur likens Trump to an abusive boyfriend as press explore new frontier for slander

    The media took criticism of Donald Trump to a new, near-laughably outrageous level Wednesday when NBC reporter Katie Tur likened Trump to an abusive boyfriend, and the Republican National Committee to a wounded girlfriend who just can’t walk away.
    “I likened it to an abusive relationship basically. A girlfriend who keeps saying that despite the abuse her boyfriend is giving her — the attacks — that he’s going to change. He really loves her and promises her this time it’s going to be different,” Tur said. “The RNC realizes this. They see that Donald Trump has promised that he would change and would pivot before and he hasn’t done it.”

    Tur referred to the recent drama caused when Republican elites condemned Trump for a public back-and-forth with the Kahn family. Big GOP names like Paul Ryan and John McCain first became tools for Obama to use against Trump — and now have given the media ever more license to pursue the limits of hyperbole.

    Tur has consistently struggled to do much else but needle Trump with partisan talking points and lob her own exaggerated slights in the mogul's direction. Trump told Tur to "be quiet" during a press conference in July as she tried to hammer the GOP nominee with Clinton talking points.

    Vice presidential nominee Mike Pence weighed in on name-calling in a radio interview with Hugh Hewitt this month. He referenced President Barack Obama's speech at the Democratic National Convention in which he called Donald Trump a "homegrown demagogue."

    "I don't think name-calling has any place in public life, and I thought that was unfortunate that the president of the United States would use a term like that," Pence said.

    Name-calling may not have any place in public life, but it certainly seems to have a place in the liberal media as the press struggle to find innovative ways to slander, slight, and whack Trump with each new day.

    I think some of these female reporters treat Trump like he is some type of boyfriend. They refer to him the way they talk about husbands and boyfriends. They talk about making him behave, accuse him of acting childish, like he's a brat or something, the way they would talk down to their husbands, boyfriends and kids. It's really strange the way they think of him. Like they want to "tame him". It's almost like they all wish they were dating him and that he liked them, but of course, he can't stand them because they're liars, dishonest, manipulative and well, sleazy if you ask me. It's the weirdest thing I've ever seen in a political campaign. And very disappointing to see women be a part of such a thing. There's a new breed of women in the media, and they are not professional by the standards I worked with, by and under. Bizarre.
