Brutal. Chuck Todd on MTP Daily

Begins with Trump A2 story, and lists all these GOP leaders (Rove, Priebus, Ryan, etc) saying Trump needs to change his rhetoric, stay on message, and they believe he's changing and evolving now.

The dates of their comments go all the way back to May 5th, with most comments in June, then July.

NEVER marry (or pick a President ) thinking you can CHANGE THEM! It NEVER happens! I realize they didn't really pick Don the Con and this is an "arranged marriage, but believing you can CHANGE him is just stupid. To his credit, The Con is showing his real self and no one can change the core man.

Make him learn empathy? That's a task for pre-K thru elementary school.

He's not changing. He's going to keep doing whatever the hell he wants.

The guests were providing worthless speculation and trying to invent various conspiracy theories to flog some life into a non-news story.

Every show is stacked with Trump apologists explaining what he "really" meant, and the hosts are spoon feeding them and playing clips of Guilliani.
How stupid do they think we are anyway? (I don't really want an answer to that).
