Can Trump Compete with Israel-Hamas News?

I hate to say it, but if there’s one good thing that’s come out of the Israel — Hamas mess, it’s the degree to which the Fake News has finally stopped slobbering over Donald Shithead Trump and to a certain degree, the GOP has stopped kissing his fat ass as well.

Until about a week ago, no matter how crazy or stupid were the statements that came out of Shithead’s mouth, the noise was immediately reported or mentioned by the Fake News and the alt-right echo chamber which together kept Shithead front and center in our daily attempts to keep up with what’s going on.

So, yesterday I tuned into both the morning and afternoon AM shock-jock shows, and neither of those loudmouths mentioned Trump in their opening segments at all, not even once! The morning guy did a thing on how liberal TV newscasters get away with all kinds of false reporting, the afternoon guy — Howie Carr — did a totally boring interview with some alt-right guy who is mixed up in some kind of financial flim-flam or other.

Then today I started off the way I always start off, by scrolling down through the news feed from Google, and I had to get past all the top stories and down into the postings aggregated specifically for me before there was one mention of Trump-o, having to do with the White House calling his comments about Hamas being ‘dangerous and unhinged.’
