"Stockholm Syndrome is real, and gaslighting works, because the White House press corps circled the

around the woman who does everything in her power, day in and day out, to destroy them. I've never seen anything like it. It's like watching a bunch of chickens swarm all over somebody who's only trying to get rid of the ax."

Folks, Sarah Slanders regularly assaults the very freedom of the American press. She is literally an ENEMY OF FREEDOM. She collects a taxpayer-funded salary to espouse shamefully anti-American ideals. She is not misguided, she is not in over her head, she is a bad person with evil intentions. Once we've finally pried our beautiful country out of these petty fascists’ claws, SHS will take her place alongside Joe McCarthy as one of America's great villains.

I like your optimism.. Get better Ferret!

And, I know nothing about this,

But, my impression of Brokaw is that he carried water for the gop for years. Which means "lying" on his part. He used to righteously get raked over the coals on this board for that.

So that's the lens I was thinking through when I heard this news.

Stupid Stockholm Syndrome WHPC

That Wolf’s performance was not “normal” for the correspondents’ dinner is a testament to its timeliness and necessity — nothing is “normal” right now, and pretending otherwise out of a false sense of the fourth estate’s friendship with the executive would have been the real disgrace. Wolf called the Trump administration out for tearing down democracy. Then, the people who are supposed to care most about holding autocrats to account called her out in turn for, essentially, not being chummy enough.

".. a wife and a mother.."? What about all the wives and mothers trump abuses much worse?
