Медийная элита в своем кругу

WaPo публикует текст выступления комика Hasan Minhaj на эпохальном торжественном обеде White House Correspondents. Специально для our intellectual betters шутки выделены желтым цветом и снабжены пояснениями, почему это должно быть смешно. Это был гвоздь программы; прочие выступления на этом пиру духа выглядели примерно так же.

Что тут скажешь. Не знаю, есть ли в этом заслуга Трампа, но прессе, похоже, конец. Протухла.

Let me politely disagree. That's not what I call "genuinely confused". I'd rather say "following the party line".

wait, that's true about Jerkov, he is intellectually dishonest.

i mean democrats who were in despair over Trump, now they are beginning to see that his actions are "tempered" as he realizes that his power is limited and "it is complicated".

it is funny how the remaining virulent antitrumpistas call the failed repeal of ACA a major defeat. it is a major win, what was offered instead is shamelessly steeped in insurance lobby interests and NOTHING ELSE. i expect he will be passing health care over to states slowly. even now your medicaid and say idaho molina are incomparable. texas and other southern states have capped malpractice, and created an "indigent medicine" system - breaking the backbone of american medical care quietly. so, we will see change, but not a sea change ( pun intended, sorry).


the other thing they do is predict an ecological disaster because he removed some regulations and dismantled some pieces of some agencies.
