Secretary of State Calls President a "Moron"

Well, unlike us, the president has skin so thin, it would be see-through if he didn't slather it with orange paint.

LOL, I was merely noting the similarity between your remarks and a lot of irrational, right wing conspiracy theorists over the previous 8 years.

However............hit dogs do bark, and stuck pigs do squeal, so..............

'nuff said about that, I think.

The sun does rise and set. Relativity tells us no frame of reference is correct, so it's perfectly valid to say the sun is moving relative to your position on the surface of the earth.

Naaah not me. I call a spade a spade. I don't defend stupid things from either side and I don't blindly accept partisan claims without reasonable evidence.

For instance I don't discount that it's perhaps true that tillers on called trump a moron in ptivate. I've called my superiors worse in private at times. It happens, but for a news source to parade it out there, they need to show reasonable evidence. Without such it damages their credibility with me. And at this point the media has saturated the market with unsubstantiated claims with more being shown to be untrue than true that I just automatically assume it's false until proved otherwise. It's the safer assumption which is pretty sad.

Unnamed sources are perfectly acceptable. Have been since for as long as journalism has existed. It's how almost every legitimate scandal in history has been broken.

There were no names attached to the Clinton email leaks. Were you as suspicious about that fake news scandal?

Just curious.

And for the record, the legitimate news media is enjoying a renewed popularity in this country. They've been spot-on, on almost everything that is being reported about the Trump administration, since January. The problem for Trump supporters is that..............well..........they really have been "spot-on".

That's a good question you ask. My answer is I was the same then as now. Here's how,

I was more skeptical of negative press from con news sources about her than lib sources. I was more skeptical of pro hillary stories from lib sites than con sites. Now my skepticism in the sources are flipped.

I find both sides news orgs to be propagandists.

The most objective journalist I've found, at least imo, is Jamie Dupree. He reports on a con talk am station but I when I catch him I can't tell if he is pro left or right. He is an example I wish more would follow. He makes poignant observations without revealing any favortism.

I also find stuff from England about us interesting. Wouldn't say it's nonpartisan but it's enlightening to hear outsiders opinions.

Bob Corker is indirectly confirming that they all think Trump is a moron.

They’re probably always taking him out of doing really stupid things.

Reality is that is is just as correct to say the sun is moving from the frame of reference of the earth, as it is to say the earth is moving from the frame of reference of the sun.

Why can't you understand it did not happen. STOP believing fake news with nothing but anonymous sources.
Tillerson said it NEVER happened.... End of more fake news!

Can you link to the quote of him saying that President is a moron? Not some unnamed source or highly placed government official?
Names please?

Why? It's not my claim, I don't need to support it.

I just haven't seen SecState actually say "I didn't call the president a moron" and I would like to see where he did. is that a problem?
