Is there a transcript of this available anywhere? Because what I'm getting from the thread is that on a Nazi scale from 1 to 10, this ranks at about 88.

two minutes of it wouldn't

seven and a half minutes wouldn't

i expect that we will get the usual response out of the white house: trump leaves the press conference feeling confident about his statement. later in the evening, he watches press coverage and becomes increasingly agitated by the press's negative tone. late that night or early the following morning, he tweets out some poorly conceived, vainglorious attack on "his enemies." his attack keeps the story in the media while the white house staff leak to maggie haberman about everything that just happened. jared and ivanka leak out a statement saying they are "uncomfortable" and "urged the president to restrain himself." a high-level official gets humiliated in the ensuing knife fight.

then, we repeat a week later.

Really looking forward to the poll numbers this week.

Someone needs to push pedophilia to the forefront somehow so that we can get Trump defending that because honestly, how much worse can you get than defending literal nazis?

A poll this week asked something like "Is there any chance at all that you could change your mind about Trump in the future."

Something like 33% (who disapprove) said there was nothing Trump could ever do to make them approve, but only something like 18% (who approve) said there was nothing Trump could do to make them disapprove.

So, I guess he still has room to fall.

If the say things to antagonize the media thing is true which I think it is I can totally see him defending straight up pedophilia considering he's borderline okay with incest.

Don't forget about that picture of Ivanka sitting on his lap when she was a kid (but far too old to be sitting on his lap) and that gross comment he made about dating the little girl in the elevator.

definitely, the only reason trump had this tantrum is because he's furious about how th emedia is portraying him and he's trying to set the record straight, but can't

If the event that predicates the total unravelling of Trump is an innocent woman dying not two blocks from where I'm sitting right now, then I -- I don't know. I'm loving flabbergasted. I think I'm going to put down some more flowers today.

It kind of blows my mind that this, of all things, could be The Great Mattering but I suppose when you write it out "The American President Sides With Nazis" does look like a wake-up call no matter who you are.

Ignore my doomerism, I don't think better things are possible
This breaks the usual Trump pattern of doing something bad, then eventually succumbing to pressure to clean up the mess half-heartedly and moving on. Yesterday was the point where he stops talking about the issue, behaves for a week and everyone forgets about it and moves on to the next crisis.

Now Trump has emphatically come down on the side of the Nazis, after the cleanup job, so we are in uncharted territory. I expect we will see some Republicans who have been keeping their feelings bottled up unleash on Trump.

something that just occured to me: Trump brought his saturday statement to the presser

he printed it out, put it in his pocket, and brought it to this presser where his aides told people there would be no questions

he planned to do this. he didn't like get baited into defending his saturday statement and "both sides" stuff, he decided to do this and then went and did it

Like 20 minutes before the press conference I said that his temporary buckling to Kelly meant that a record breaking meltdown was brewing.

FWIW this hasn't been the real show yet, what we saw today was barely the first notes of the overture. Say what you will about Trump but he is an artist at riling up violent crazies- and he is about to paint his Mona Lisa.
