Lawrence: Trumpism means ‘never having to say you're sorry for being stupid’

MSNBC’s Lawrence O’Donnell describes how Trumpism, which “depends on stupidity,” has infected not only the Republican Party but also the Supreme Court in ways that were “unimaginable before Trump but were actually happening before Trump.”

Lawrence O'Donnell is the Walter Cronkite of our generation! Kudos Sir!

[@pamelaannfuller9410]

I, too, like Mr. O'Donnell's show. BUT back in the day, the TV newsMEN usually did not express their own opinions (or, at least, they tried to veil their opinions because "journalists" were not supposed to reveal their political beliefs unless they were labeled "commentators." With the advent of more TV channels, and repeal of the old Fairness Doctrine laws (FCC regs), there has been a blurring of "news" and "opinion." And, I think it is confusing to most Americans. Case in point: "FOX News" does not even try to give objective accounts of daily US and world events--although they dress it up like they are presenting facts. O'Donnell is mostly a commentator--and a really good one because he backs it up with verifiable facts. But he has a whole different approach than CBS's Walter Cronkite. Cronkite was a true news "anchor." O'Donnell is not usually anchoring news. There were no satellite dishes for almost all years Cronkite anchoring the CBS evening news--so everything was delayed (e.g., "we'll have film at eleven"). Another difference: Cronkite was reaching 30 MILLION viewers per night on average. Due to the advent of cable, The Last Word averages a little over TWO (2) million viewers per night. I think O'Donnell has as good a delivery as Uncle Walter. One thing they seem to have in common: Their viewers TRUST them and believe what they are saying is true. And, that's huge. Maybe Lawrence will become "Uncle Lawrence"--a person US presidents believe they need on their side in order to wage wars or achieve peace. O'Donnell is just getting better and better. Wish more Americans and non-Americans would watch MSNBC. I primarily stream it. Really hope MSNBC tries to keep O'Donnell on in this role. Would really hate to see him go back to Hollywood as a screenwriter just now. (He can do that later if he wants... PLUS--truth is stranger than fiction.) Maximilien Robespierre Quotes. The secret of freedom lies in educating people, whereas the secret of tyranny is in keeping them ignorant. To punish the oppressors of humanity is clemency; to forgive them is cruelty. I don't think that what FOX "News" is doing is fully protected by the First Amendment (they are inciting violence and spreading lies (veiled dog whistles and hate speech--not protected by First Am.) Also, Fox is advertising their verifiable "lies" as true facts to the public. That, at least, is false advertising. Fox has already been successfully sued for defamation. Thank God Lou Dobbs & Tucker are off the air. FOX News and their paid shills are part of America's big corruption and Information Dissymmetry problem for sure. But what shall we do about it?? How do we fix this problem? If we don't fix it soon, we surely will not have a Democracy. Having an educated electorate is a prerequisite to a functioning democracy. Right? How can we protect 'free speech" but prevent the spreading of verifiable and destructive lies by major information-spreading media outlets and social media on personal devices? We need sustainable solutions to this info-dissymmetry problem--fast.

[@Fred-hi8tt]

Thanks for pointing out that tariffs are a consumption tax that consumers end up paying, not importers. Many people don't grasp that. It is essential that businesses pass their costs on to consumers.

[@joeblog2672]

Yeah that's weird. I would say I'm above average in political and economic things but I always thought tariffs were import taxes paid by importing companies. So instead they are instead a means of driving the price up on foreign goods at no cost to the importer except in terms of expected lesser demands for their goods as consumers buy less expensive domestic goods of the same nature.

[@Fred-hi8tt]

Consumers end up buying a more expensive domestic made product because our companies don't have to compete. I would like to buy a $10,000 Chinese electric car for $10,000 if they ever even let them be imported. I'm glad I was able to buy my 69 VW Beetle for much less than American cars sold for back then. Free trade was a good thing. It helped Germany and Japan recover from WWII and they are vital allies today.

Tariffs won't save American jobs either. 100% automation is the goal of all businesses.

The question is who paid off the over million dollar debt of Justice Beer Guzzler Kavanaugh.

[@kimclarke5018]

Actually Kavanaugh is an only child (kinda explains his behavior in adulthood), and his father was a lobbyist lawyer and his mother was a judge. Father retired 20 years ago and got a lot of money when he retired. Don’t like Brett, but to be fair I read that money flowed through his parents to him to pay debt.

"Law School 101 - Ignorance of the law is not an excuse to escape liability" Supreme Justice Thomas has absolutely no shame. It's heartbreaking that the legal system in America makes almost impossible to remove corrupt judges from their benches.

I wish Lawrence O'Donnell was going to be the moderator in the upcoming debate. Not only would he know how to frame the questions, he would also not put up with any BS in the answers, and would insist both men answered, and didn't go off into digressions, or try to dodge.

[@SewAndTellwithDori]

I was a proud Republican since I began voting at 18 yrs. of age in the late 1970s. I voted for Trump the first time around and within his first year in office, I had deeply regretted for having done so. Trump has made a mockery out our country. We are a laughing stock to the rest of the world. When the January 6 insurrection took place, I was absolutely appalled at Trump's cheering of and praising of those who stormed and looted Capitol Hill. Because I've been so disgusted with Trump's belittling and degrading of anyone and everyone who opposes him, I decided to switch to a different political party for future elections. I hope and pray that Trump loses this election. I pray for our country and pray for the wisdom of our sitting president, but I will be on my knees praying, begging and pleading with God Almighty to keep Trump out of the White House from now on. God help us all and God help the United States of America should he get re-elected.

[@kassandraahuero7962]

I never voted for Trump because he mocked a disabled reporter . I have the same disability I get ssi and the Republicans want to get rid of the safety net that fdr created as I Christian I too will be praying for Biden to stay our President ! Trump accepts peoples worship it truly scares me. God is coming soon!
