It was disgraceful journalism on display. Your depiction of poor level of journalism, at the "press conference", is spot on!

Yes, the live press or networks (in real-time) did not fact check him, they did not correct his lies, they did not press him with hardly any hardball questions, they did not follow up with questions incoherent rambling nor did they're bring their typical journalistic zeal and zest to the Trump "press conference".

• What I can't figure out, is if MSM:
  
  1. have simply just grown too tried to do anything about his lies? Or;
  2. have gotten lazy to his lies? Or;
  3. are still fearful of his indignant rants and lashes out, about terrible fake questions, journalists or their news networks, often when he can't answer tough questions? Or;
  4. have succumb to his lies and surrendered all journalistic integrity? Or;
  5. they were just bored to the lies and wanted to get it over with (...which I could totally understand)?

Either way, MSM need to bring the same level of energy to Trump's "old man" QAnon/MAGA campaign tour, as they do in a Dems press conference.

PS: Note how tired "old man" Trump looked? Didn't he certainly look a paler shade of orange, than his usual self?

It is way, way too much work to correct and fact-check Trump's classic Gish gallop of lies on the run. Best analogy is it would be like trying to catch confetti.

Yes, they COULD do it on screen with today's technology.

But lazy MSM would then have to come up with other ways of generating more clicks and views for their product than the one they have preferred and relied upon for at least 100 years; by simply spinning the narrative to help Repubs win elections and let THEM work their magic to produce the horrific headlines MSM craves and needs.

In Trump's astonishingly lunatic Mar-a-Lardo "press conference" today where he did not accurately answer any question (all asked perfectly pro Repub calmly and politely, no shouting and anger, unlike most you see of Dems) while demanding that Harris do "press conferences" like his where he does not answer any question accurately, he announced that under Joe Biden gasoline has gotten as high as "$8 per barrel", which (he lied) caused inflation to be the highest in history and (he lied) the economy to be the worst ever.

He never corrected himself. Not even as of this writing.

Can't take it back, right? Harris should feature that amazingly good news on energy costs under her administration in an ad.

You must be a fan of butchering of babies not unlike ISGs #1 Cheerleader MrSpidy.

Where is your comment about that link, you have a twisted comment about everything else, but why not that.

[EihTooms]

LOL. You. Can. Not. Make. This. Stuff. Up.

Leave it to the Great Race / Ethnicity / Appearance / Religion Detective, Donald J. Trump, to put his now famous serious Cognitive Impairment, senility and dementia on full display at his Fake Mar-a-Lardo White House press conference by "misremembering" (or we can call it lying, your choice) a helicopter "emergenvy landing" that never happened.

But more importantly, his above-stated Detective work demonstrates that he can't even tell the difference between two rather well-known men, one a White guy and the other a Black guy!

Nikki Haley Nikki Haley Nikki Haley?

Or was it Nancy Pelosi?

Therefore proving that nobody in MAGA World is more qualified to be the arbiter of ANYONE'S Race / Ethnicity / Appearance / Religion than The Great Detective, Donald J. Trump, himself!

Lololol.

Trump's Helicopter Crash Story Never Even Happened.
He's so full of crap, his eyes are brown.

https://crooksandliars.com/2024/08/t...ory-never-even

It wasnt the famous former San Francisco mayor on the helicopter flight at all. It was Gov. Jerry Brown, the former governor of California, who bears little resemblance to Willie Brown.
.......
Jerry Brown, who left office in January 2019, said through a spokesman, There was no emergency landing and no discussion of Kamala Harris.

I call complete B.S., Mr. Newsom said, laughing out loud.

[EihTooms]

He deliberately put it out there and then he later said, I mean if he loses, yeah right.

You can't take some things back and say that's not what I meant.

You still want to list the butchering of babies under "heavenly good deeds".

I believe moral people everywhere, believe stopping the butchering of innocent babies supersedes anything else you listed!!

But you want to still Cheerlead for more of it with your ROEvember phrase?

Thanks for the conformation, as to which "road" Repubs are on! YES, see you in "ROEvember". - Harris / Walz "When WE fight, WE WIN!".

BTW not incidentally I am an ardent atheist.

Sure dude, if you say so! But that doesn't negate all those unsolicited, rousing stories of your upbringing with the catholic nuns, you so love to regal us with, from time to time.

Atheist...hmmm! The catholic nuns must be so disappointed! (...kkkk!)

And "better border security" more full of shit double speak WTF you're a joke!!.

Your sophistry is quite unimpressive I see you wouldn't correct your making up the JDV Hitler quote, COWARD!!

Agreed, convict Trump is a COWARD! , Your absolutely right! Good for you! And according to JDV "America's Hitler"

Now you want to intentionally conflate his wife being Indian and not white? Really who said she's white? Who said she's black? She says what she is, and that's what she is, not a fake race grifter / race hustler / race con artist like Harris.

Critics Question JD Vance's 'Weird' Defense Of Wife Usha After White Supremacist Attacks. "Posts appear to have spiked this week following Vance's nomination criticizing Vance for marrying someone who is non-white, expressing concerns about an influx of Indian immigrants as a result and the so-called Great Replacement conspiracy have garnered hundreds of thousands of views according to individual post engagement figures." https://www.huffpost.com/entry/jd-va...b0d5de59dcf049

Dude, you do the math on who's zooming who?

HINT: "White supremacists don't like JDV's non-white choice for a wife" (...go figure!)

Even when the media generously bend over backwards every which way to ignore Trump's critical and singular role in laying the groundwork for, creating and exacerbating Trump's Pandemic, they can not ignore that his policies and stewardship led directly to the death of far more than 450,000 Americans, starting even BEFORE Trump's Pandemic.

Spidy,

Sad to see a person with so much piss and vinegar play the card. Maybe he should ask Elon to buy this and release his insightful rants.

Just ask Walz the baby butcher of Minnesota.

I am not even gonna try to make sense of that schizophrenic indignant rant, to Admin.

FYI, I believe Admin had initially censored correctly and deleted both our posts. Not sure why the initial posts were removed by Admin, I had just chalked it up to Admin just doing their job and administering however they see fit.

Look, no one likes their posts being removed or deleted, but most ISGers follow the guidelines of civil conduct and don't have too much of a problem when Admin steps in.

But too suggest Admin was picking sides or is some kind of DEI hire, I think, is just YOU BEING delusional with a side of order of schizophrenic paranoia.

Carry On!

I will make it easy for everyone. If you are Republican, you are racist and sexist, Elvis.

Well you have stated the obvious and this is well know. Time for me to bet long shot or buy a lottery ticket. Because I actually agree with you.

[Elvis 2008]

I wonder how I managed to teach finance at the university level, be a federally registered investment advisor, a CPA for twenty years, and work on a currency futures trading desk without knowing that. My graduate level Investment Strategies and Portfolio Management, and in Fixed Income Investments probably just didn't cover yield curves, or expectations theory, or liquidity preference theory. I must be a real douche. I'm probably even more of a douche because I don't try to time or beat the market, or think that I can. So I don't care about short term noise like the yield curve, the business cycle, or whether we are or are not, or will or will not be, in a recession.

And? Why did you lock yourself up when a virus with a 0. 2% mortality came around? Because you were afraid and what you do not get is that is the time the real money is to be made when others are afraid. How many times have I said I cleaned up in the pussy market when you locked yourself away? So a guy like you is better off teaching shit like Efficient-market hypothesis and claiming all great investors are lucky. Big deal. Yes, by all means, someone with your emotional temperament should not try not to beat the market. The only that bugs me is professors like you telling people that anyone who does beat the market is lucky.

You're wrong. That's not what I said. I said that an inverted yield curve, and not reversal of an inverted yield curve, is what's considered by many to be a harbinger of recession. Your issues with reading comprehension really hold back your critical thinking skills (such as they are).

Just stop with the nonsense. I quoted what others were saying as to why the market came down, and you feel inferior, and you should after locking yourself up while I was out having the time of my life, you want to prove you are right and I was wrong. I was mentioning to Cane what I was reading and hearing. Hell, I did not even look at bond yields myself until now. https://www.bloomberg.com/markets/ra...nment-bonds/us.

The 3 months are paying 5. 22% yield and the 5 year is at 3. 85%. The yield curve is still inverted, so the person I quoted was getting ahead of himself.

My point on GDP being higher under Dems' regimes is not based on its effects on 'the market. ' It is based on its effects on society overall.

LOL. Well, teach, you could have made the point that one of Warren Buffet's indicators, the market cap to GDP ratio, was at an all time high. https://www.longtermtrends.net/marke...ett-indicator/

No love for the Presidential Betting Odds anymore?

They are still available and accessible for review. Don't worry, they can flip-flop from one extreme to the other on a dime, much like Shady Pants, I mean J.D. Vance's opinion of Donald Trump:

https://www.realclearpolitics.com/

[EihTooms]

In his first interview since ending his re-election bid, President Biden expressed doubt Wednesday that there would be a peaceful transfer of power if former President Donald Trump wins the 2024 election.

"If Trump wins, no, I'm not confident at all," the 81-year-old president told "CBS News Sunday Morning".

You know he immediately corrected himself and said, "I mean, if Trump loses", right?
