Scarborough: Putin has journalists who bother him killed.- Trump: Yeah, so what's your point?

[kpete]

Joe Scarborough pressed Trump on Putin’s history as “a person who kills journalists, political opponents, and invades countries.”

Trump responded by defending Putin. “He’s running his country, and at least he’s a leader. Unlike what he have in this country.”

Scarborough pressed: “But again: He kills journalists that don’t agree with him.”

Trump again brushed off the critique, telling Scarborough, “our country does plenty of killing also, Joe.”

Before moving on, Scarborough threw Trump a lifeline. “You obviously condemn Vladimir Putin killing journalists and political opponents, right?”

“Oh sure, absolutely,” Trump replied carelessly.

4. There's a joke here, that the US mainstream media isn't journalism, but propaganda.

Therefore, why the outrage?

I guess it's too serious a topic for jokes, though.
