Donald Trump says he's not running against "crooked" Hillary Clinton, he's running against the "crooked" media. Update!

Courtesy of Mediaite:

A lot of Donald Trump‘s big Connecticut rally last night was just media-bashing, especially where The New York Times was concerned. 

Trump has been blowing a gasket all weekend over a Times report that there’s basically a meltdown in the Trump campaign over his lack of discipline and refusal to say on message. 

Last night, Trump declared, “I’m not running against Crooked Hillary Clinton. I’m running against the crooked media!… These are the most dishonest people!”

Did anybody else notice that the camera which recorded Donald Trump saying that CNN had turned off their camera in response to his criticism of them was in fact a CNN camera?

Step one in setting the stage for a civil war:

Claim the election is rigged.

Check.

Strep two: Claim the media is against you.

Check.

Step three: Stay tuned.

Update: Holy crap, it looks like Trump is completely off his meds.
Damn! He is like a rabid dog who keeps breaking out of his kennel.

      Yes, he's 'bigly' in obesity size - fat face and jowls included - puffy eyes - tiny hole in the middle of it.

      Seriously, as much as I have hated taking on the job of wienie checking, ever since the hand size thing became a thing, I have looked at pics of him below the waist to see if there's any sign of anything being there. Nope. There are a number of younger pics of him when he wore tighter pants, and in a couple he's acting like he's so cool with his hands in his pockets, which spreads the fabric across tightly--and there is no sign of anything being there. There's even one with the hands in pockets and he's jumping in the air in front of the camera. Very tightly pulled pants. No sign of a package.

Their editors could even say that the reporters' safety is in jeopardy and they can't allow it to be put in even more jeopardy and so they will not cover trump in person. They won't do that, of course, but it'd be great if the editors of the press wrote a collective letter stating that Trump is abusing the media and putting the reporters in danger. We know this to be a fact.

      Man, when even the conservative media hold your feet to the fire you are going to get burned.

      This is so entertaining.

      You know that Trump will blame Pence for losing. He'll point to interviews like this (and there will be others) and tell him he's a loser, he dropped the ball and that is why they lost.

      Then he'll blame Reince Priebus and say he wanted Chris Christie all along but they made him choose that loser Mike Pence.

      When he gets home he'll blame Melania for giving that plagiarized speech.

    What Trump isn’t telling his supporters about the cameras at his rallies is that he controls where the cameras are positioned. A report in March of 2016 confirmed that the Trump campaign dictates the specific details of where the cameras are placed at his rallies. It is Donald Trump who has insisted that the crowds not be shown and that the cameras be focused on the stage and him at all times.

    Trump is supposed to be an expert deal maker, but after negotiating a bad deal for himself, he has chosen to lie, and misrepresent the facts.

      Actually, I think his declining popularity has everything to do with the media coverage. Specifically those cameras.

      He insists they be focused on him at all times. That's the rub.

      The American people have had a belly full of bloviating Trump. They've had their fill but he is still in their face constantly. It's having a negative effect.

      It will get worse because I'm sure Trump will insist the cameras be on him at all times as a way to counter the unpopularity. He thinks he alone can fix it by being the center of attention, on camera, and talking even more. It will make it worse.

      He'll never see the problem.

      He is his own worst enemy.

      He'll also never accept after he loses that it was all his fault; he did it to himself.

      It's not too late and they actually should pull staff and money and redirect it to the down ballot races. It's not too late. But I suspect they won't. They'll just keep giving Trump one more chance and warnings and threats they'll never follow through on.

      LOL. The GOP is telling the media they've given Trump more than anyone else and if he loses it's all on him. They are cutting him loose already. No wonder Trump is hating on the media for reporting it.

      "Since the Cleveland convention, top party officials have been quietly making the case to political journalists, donors and GOP operatives that the Republican National Committee has done more to help Trump than it did to support its 2012 nominee Mitt Romney, and that therefore Trump has only himself and his campaign to blame for his precipitous slide in the polls, according to people who have spoken with Republican leadership."
      "Sean Spicer, the RNC’s top strategist, on Wednesday made that case to 14 political reporters he convened at the organization’s Capitol Hill headquarters for an off-the-record conversation about the election."

      Politico and Buzzfeed weren't invited so I guess they get to report it.

      "Spicer emphasized that RNC chairman Reince Priebus has been working aggressively to coach Trump into being a more disciplined candidate, calling the nominee “five or six times a day,” according to another person present at last week’s closed-door meeting."

      That is *not* going to work. Trump is going to rebel against the nagging and babysitting. Witness the late night Twitter rant. I'm sure he was warned not to do that. So the babysitting is not working.

      At some point the RNC is going to decide that keeping Trump on for fundraising isn't cost effective and they'll do better to cut him off and try to reduce their losses down ticket. That will have to happen by at least mid-September.

      First of all, it's too late for him to get on message since we've all seen the level of Crazy that he's been spewing for months. No carefully crafted speech is going to erase the memories (or the video) of the reprehensible things he's been saying since he began the primary race.

      Second, they are dealing with Donald Trump who has never listened to anyone because he's convinced that he knows everything about everything better than anyone else. Just ask him.

      Third, let's just suppose they can somehow manage to convince him that reading a prepared speech and staying on message is a good idea for the next 2 months. The man is completely ignorant of any and all subjects a President needs to understand in order to do his/her job and not crash the world's economy (again) or start World War III. Once he gets to the debates (assuming he actually shows up), no amount of advisers or speechwriters will help him after he steps up to that debate podium.

    Freedom of the Press, as defined in common law and by the Supreme Court in 1964:

    A "public figure" (which Trump most definitely is, and has been for more than 30 years) is libeled only if:

    1) A published item about him can be proved to be false;
    2) The publication (or broadcaster) knew it to be false when it was used;
    3) The publication used this knowingly with malice, to hurt whoever the public figure might be.
    All three parts are vital. The third, "absence of malice" is key.

    Trump, if he'd ever learned anything about American history, surely can remember all sorts of times, from the beginning of the Republic, when politicians slugged it out in print.
    The remedy: put out the true facts.

    If he sues the publication, as he's threatened to do, then he'll have to swear under oath in depositions and on the witness stand, just what was false. And the opposition will have the chance to ask him how and why he thought so.

    Finally, the Venn diagram of New York Times readers and Trump supporters shows that the two entities have almost nothing in common. If he didn't bring it up, the story could not get a toehold. Except with opinion makers, who always read the Times, whether they're left- or right-wing. That's who Trump is whining to -- but they've already made up their minds that he's a blowhard and ignoramus. He's just proving the point!

    Surely, Donald Trump has libeled President Obama repeatedly, by asserting that Mr. Obama is not an American citizen (false), by knowing that this allegation is false and using it anyway; and by proving over and over that he was trying to hurt the President's chances of election and re-election by repeating the falsities. The President has not sued Mr. Trump for libel, although he could do so and win.

    All that the media has to do is to play the video of Trump speaking. His own words sink him. It's like blaming the mirror for making you look fat.

    Trump may also have some serious psychological reasons for running for president. He has been hinting at it for years. He has also courted the media for years and enjoyed being the front page feature, story and photo more than once. He craves attention.

    At the same time, he is completely unprepared to be the president of the United States. Running a business is not the same thing as running a country. Trump has finally reached a bridge too far.

    All of those terrible insults and name calling during the primaries sounded like a kid on the playground bullying others. He is begging to be punched in the face with his terrible remarks. Make a psychologist would say that Trump is begging to be punished because as an obnoxious kid who misbehaved, he never was punished. He has been the big bad bully for too long, and it is finally time to shut that guy up permanently.

    Then THIS>" So I said if I introduce you, Giacomo, with all those cameras -- look at those cameras -- they're the worst human beings in the world. … But I said if I introduce you with all these cameras, you, with that look, will end up being a movie star."
    Trump added: "Giacomo, I want 10 percent of everything YOU make." " "I might LIE to you like Hillary does ALL the TIME, but I'll never lie to Giacomo, okay?"

    ""The good news is you can't move, cause you can't get anything for your house so don't worry about it."WTF?

    "Oh you better elect me folks, I'll never speak to you again. Can you imagine — can you imagine how badly I'll feel if I spend all of that money, all of this energy, all of this time, and lost? I will never, ever forgive the people of Connecticut, I will never forgive the people of Florida and Pennsylvania and Ohio."< Just like Sara!
    "By the way, you didn't get what I said. But I loved when CNN turned off its camera, as soon as I started telling you what sleaze they are. … Can you imagine having it on live television? But you know the good thing? Nobody is watching them anyways." ok.....

    Everyone, and I mean everyone tried to keep him on message. The news networks went air to even prod him to say the right thing but noooo, baby Donnie have to have it his way. He gotta say whatever comes to his brain without thinking things through. Every thing baby Donnie learned, he learned on the internet. Because the internet is true. The truth is baby Donnie, we are sick of you. You are falling apart before the presidency. The fact that your' fans egg you on and tell you not to listen to the polls, the media, doesn't help your psychosis at this point. You need to call it a day because even that thing on your' head is looking worn out.

    Back in the '80s I was a subscriber to Spy magazine. The editor, Graydon Carter, originated the "short-fingered vulgarian" meme. I wish I'd saved the issue.
    It got under Trump's skin like nothing else, and now has become a truism.
    And Graydon Carter now is the longtime editor of Vanity Fair. Expect to read a wonderful article on Trump in that magazine sometime before the election.

    1. The first time he says something coarse and disgusting to or about Hillary in the debates, I hope she, a woman, laughs right in his face and says how it really is true that he is a short-fingered vulgarian.

      That should push him right over the edge.

      That and saying over and over again that "Mr. Trump can't seem to answer the question but I will."

      There have already been wonderful articles. I especially like Keith Olberman's test that shows Trump is crazy. 32 out of 40 he has a mental illness.

      Of course we know what it is. Sociopathic narcissist.

    You know you can't win against the "liberal media".

    With that and the rigged election, he's now absolved himself of the label LOSER.

    Although we all will be calling him Loser Donald or Loser Trump before October.

    If the GOP are smart, they won't wait until October when irreparable damage will have been done but will pull their people and their money out of Trump's campaign and work to save as many of their down ticket people as they can.

    That will just give Trump another reason to blame his losing; they didn't support me!

    It's madness! What will happen when he loses the election? Who will he blame? I'd bet he's already got a script full of excuses now; like, Bo the White House dog ate the votes, etc.

    How difficult is it to release your taxes? What is he hiding and why? Put up or shut up you whining ninny.

      Warren Buffett says an audit is no excuse. He's released his taxes even in the middle of an audit.

      I would certainly take Warren Buffett's word over Donald Trump. Warren Buffett is a billionaire and he made the money himself, without Daddy or bankruptcies.

    Hey, Donnie, that's a really great strategy you've got there!

    Insult and piss off all the reporters and other media people who have helped put you in this position and have access to information about you going back decades. Vilify the people who have, thus far, shown you an extraordinary amount of leniency because you're not a career politician.

    Call the media "disgusting and corrupt" for transcribing or broadcasting your exact words.

    Antagonize the people who have the resources and the experience to dig up a whole lot of the secrets about you and your business dealings that you've so very carefully buried over the years.

    Yup, GREAT strategy!

    I have no sympathy for this prick. He's going to lose twice, once to Hilary Clinton, and then more spectacularly so in the Trump U RICO case.
