For once the New York Times eschews bothsidesism

And this is what it took…

Jesus fucking Christ. Pathetic.

I love Ken Jennings responce I would like to announce that when I gave wrong answers on Jeopardy, I was being sarcastic. :smiley:

As I noted before the rewrite, a journalist must be careful when making sweeping statements. Only sentient experts view the practice as dangerous.

That link leads to a copy of this great video — Sarah Cooper lip-syncing to the President’s words. (We also see a notable Doper commenting in that Twitter thread!)

To encourage you to watch the video, here are some of the YouTube comments:

… The video is only 49 seconds, but I just watched some of the continuation of that Trump comment. Funniest was “Again I say maybe you can maybe you can’t. I’m not a doctor. But I’m like a person that has a good you-know-what.”

I did watch it. Pretty entertaining.

“in some other way” :smiley:

If he were any good at being sarcastic or funny in some other way, he would certainly have repeated is classic expression: “elements of medical”.

Ooh…who? (If this isn’t an unwanted “outing”).

(Lots of great comments in that Twitter thread, BTW).

False alarm. I recognized a Doper name, but now see nine Twitter accounts with that same name or a close variant; and the one posting seems different from ours. (That twitterer’s comments are no longer visible in that thread anyway: pushed off by higher-rated or more recent tweets.)

It seemed like it might be a slight violation to mention the name but, anyway, it’s irrelevant now.
