"When the New York Times treats talk of annexing Canada as just another policy proposal to analyze, it's failing its fundamental duty to inform the public about what's really happening."

The Present Age · Stop Analyzing Trump's Unhinged Ideas Like They're Normal Policy ProposalsBy Parker Molloy

"The press needs to stop treating politics like a game of electoral mathematics and start treating it like what it is: a serious business with real consequences for democracy and human lives. When the president starts talking like a mad emperor, that's the story, not how many House seats his delusions might hypothetically affect."

@wdlindsy Been saying it for a while now.

Everyone who agrees with him and sucks up to him is a fascist too.

That means: UK Tories + UK Labour too.

@wdlindsy
A reporter treating talk of "annexing #Canada" as a sane policy proposal is like reporting on a deadly car wreck and focusing on the choice of tires each car was using.

@wdlindsy
A great line from the op/ed:

"It's about a sitting president who talks about invading allied nations while referring to their democratically elected leaders as though they were already his subordinates."

That perfectly encapsulates #OrangeHitler's world view: He's the king and every other world leader are his subordinates (I'm sure the #NarcissistInChief thinks #Putin is HIS bitch as well.) #DisasterPresidency

@wdlindsy Yes not only is this not a logical option for governing (#governor #Trump ?) It is offensive to #Canadians to suggest that we would like to give up our sovereignty and our country #cdnpoli #uspoli #uspol
