The 2010 ruling on Citizens United v. FEC opened the floodgates of political spending in elections. Every year since then, untraceable financial political contributions…

    I'm glad he did this. I was thinking this very same thing as the press conference went on. On the ex-bird site I remarked in real time to MSNBC, as the event droned on, «Why give free air to Trump spewing a nonstop series of unchecked lies? STOP. There's no "news" here. No policy. No action. He offers incitement, you offer credibility. If you looked back to media doing such for Hitler, how would you describe their role? Neutral? Proper?»

    I had meant to go on longer in that thread, but I just couldn't bear it. I was thinking back to how many times in the 2016 campaign MSNBC had a chyron saying "Breaking news: Trump about to speak". It seemed almost daily and was infuriating. No other candidate got that daily bump. MSNBC should have credited itself later as one of his biggest soft donors. If democracy falls this time, they will be due part credit. But it won't save them from being thrown in jail by Emperor Trump I.

    Sadly, the best description I've come up with to describe the relationship of MSNBC and Trump is the old joke, here told by Woody Allen in Annie Hall, that ends with "we need the eggs" ... except this is only a metaphor, and the real sutuation is no joke.
