2016 Postmortem
Related: About this forumIs anyone else really disappointed with MSNBCs reaction so far?
That was fucking pathetic right? That had to have been the most pathetic attempt at displaying an understanding of, well... anything. How did their coverage not start with, "Just so you all know Trump just spent 30 minutes saying nothing!" Have we ever had such an unqualified presidential candidate?

(528 posts)A vet could do it too. But someone needs to say right now before everyone forgets that that was a disgraceful display of ignorance.

(25,324 posts)than they allotted to conducting the forum. Really!!! Only 1/2 hour for each of the candidates for something so important like being a Commander-in-chief? Lauer spent most of Hillary''s time on e-mails and cutting her answers off and he spent most of Trump's time letting him attack the President and Hillary after he started out saying that they were to talk about themselves and not criticize the other candidate. At least Hillary had the sense to not use Trump's name and just say her opponent. Trump on the other hand attacked Hillary by name multiple times as well as attacking the sitting President. This was supposed to be about his judgement and preparation for the job and all he could do is say the same crap he's been saying about himself since he declared his candidacy.
