The media needs to stop giving him free airtime if they are not going to call him out on his lies. He has been calling into Morning Joe for months and that sucking sound is Scarborough sucking up to him. Back in January for his fund raiser he said he had raised over $6M. That was a blatant lie. I can see Scarborough hoping that Trump names him as his VP.

MSNBC, Fox News, CNN, they have all sucked up to him for ratings and none of them I would consider newsworthy.

As much as I don't like Trump he has played the media to his advantage and run his campaign on the cheap. The other republican candidates raised millions of dollars all for nothing.
