I wish someone would have the gravitas to make this necessary speech. I’m also waiting for someone to take up Jeff Tiedrich’s challenge of saying to Trump “What the fuck is wrong with you?” during one of his bullshit pressers.
A timely guest post and a wish many of us share. It would certainly be a courageous and welcome standpoint.
Of course, the particular addressee of such eloquent remarks might not hear them in their entirety for having lumbered laboriously and conspicuously out of the dinner before the fourth paragraph, or, in the alternative, for having sat in a mean, sizzling, hunched-up heap while composing his longest-ever online all-caps diatribe.
What’s the point of this “dinner” if not to uphold the standards of the freedom of the press. It’s so sad that the press no longer can represent the truth in our democracy. I love this post and hope that someone there will stand up in this way.
I actually welcome this display of toadyism in the same way that I relish certain of the public displays of incompetence and outrageous behavior by this regime, because every appalling act has the potential to reach more people who, incredibly, haven't woken up to the extent of the corruption and the harm it's doing.
Too many words… he’d get lost as it droned on and then get angry and probably storm out while hearing the litany of his attacks. Then he’d miss the most important words in the last 4 paragraphs.
“Finally” should be dropped and just begin there. Perhaps he’d actually hear the most important words.
Many people are saying it was a grand slam. The biggest best sweetest swing of the bat, some say even sweeter than the moon shot off the bat from Robert Redford when he broke the lights in the movie “The Natural”! Speaking of Mr Redford most everyone says that I Donald Trump is a much more attractive man. Not to mention my acting abilities compared to that hack. I fooled 78 million people into believing that I was the second coming of Jesus Christ !
I bet Trump would get up and walk out after the first few sentences . He can’t take criticism.
Without a doubt.
Agreed.
If only…
Damn. I was gonna say the same thing!

When people ask, “what is the one question you would ask him?” I always say that same thing.
Please forward this speech to make sure she is able to choose clarity.
Employed by CBS...yeah, wishful thinking there
True, Eric but wishful thinking can lead to a wish granted.
Like they say, hope springs eternal
Zach! WOW the speech you wrote, EXCELLENT a definite 🎤Drop Mic GREAT JOB!! Wish it could be spoken that night!
hope springs eternal. . .

Much like when the steam was rising from his cranium while Obama so fabulously skewered him at the same dinner years back
Indeed, indeed. A fond, memorable moment.
I can think of a few choice words……
Excellent! Would love to see this Op Ed in the Minnesota Star Tribune! (And maybe a few hundred other newspapers)
If only they’d say all that to his face.

Fantasy. It will never happen. She’ll flatter him and the attendees will squirm in their chairs wishing they had the courage to walk out.

Look like a bunch of us are on the same page about an abrupt, furious exit.
As "first ever guest op-eds" go...you hit a home run!

The last time he went to this thing he didn’t take criticism very well so I guarantee he has no funny bone!
I myself am boycotting it.
I don’t want him to get high ratings because he would be pleased as punch over that!
It could be a shit show…..
Just him attending makes it a shit show
