Over 40 years of lying in the spotlight, 34 felony counts, multiple indictments, multiple fraud settlements, rape judgments, allegations of pedophilia, and all it took was some sagging poll numbers to get some pushback against his false statements.

So many highly paid journalists go into interviews with republican-types (in particular) as if objectivity is the same as ignorance. They know full well that republicans lie with every breath, yet they act like they're being informed when they're being fed fox news BS. Objectivity is NOT the same as ignorance and normally, journalists prepare for interviews. If you're going to interview a polar bear, you'd probably know enough to bring a winter coat. So why have so many failed to prepare to be fed the same lies over and over again?
