Trump...Let's review

Donald Trump is America’s back mole’: John Oliver tears the presidential candidate’s image apart, piece by piece

John Oliver ruthlessly skewered Donald Trump in an effort to help American audiences understand who exactly they may be voting for.

“Since 1988, every candidate who’s won the most states on Super Tuesday went on to become their party’s nominee,” he said, adding, “At this point, Donald Trump is America’s back mole: it may have seemed harmless a year ago, but now that it’s gotten frighteningly bigger, it is no longer wise to ignore it.”

I’m not even sure he knows he’s lying, I think he just doesn’t care about what the truth is

Oliver took Trump’s image apart step by step, first citing Politifact, which checked 77 of the Republican presidential candidate’s statements and rated 76 per cent of them as “varying degrees of false.”

Trump versus the MSM
Mar 3, 2016 2:23AM PST

It's like watching two mad dogs fighting with one another. What to do...what to do. Do you cheer for one or the other? Do you walk away and let them have at it? Do you try to separate them? What I see is too many sick people enjoying the show and hoping to stumble on another dog fight when this is over.

the phrase
Mar 3, 2016 8:26AM PST

Meant to say you didn't understand the "et tu" phrase. After I put the header in I reached for my mouse to move cursor to message box and my hand brushed the Enter key at corner of keyboard and there went the post. This has happened before and I wish there was an "are you sure" to help avoid that. I was pissed at that and didn't feel like messing with it again at the time.
