Sounds like you need a mirror to understand who has selective outrage on this one.

Looks like General James "Mad Dog" Mattis needs a mirror too.

saw the very same fawning over Obama,and to a lesser extent bush and Clinton.
I find it interesting that this rise in cult of personality in regards to political figures coincides with the 24/7 news cycle.
it is almost as if the 24/7 news cycle was more interested in creating soap opera narratives to generate money,rather than actually disseminate the news of the day.
and instead engaged in the "message of the day" and created a conflict narrative more akin to WWF than critical examination of current events.
an ocean of beautiful people reading from a teleprompter,and the rise of a handsomely compensated pundit class to bring all the excited,and drama,and fabricated outrage to spoon feed to the ignorant masses.
because outrage media is big money.

Your criticism of the 24/7 news cycle and corporate publishing's need "to sell papers" by emphasizing conflict is apt.
However, at a certain point -- and in modern times the "threshold" of a "certain point" is typically crossed in fascist regimes -- politics morphs from quantitative change into qualitative change.
What "went down" under Hitler and Mussolini is now going down under Trump. (I stress "under" for Malignant Messiah is a hobnailed boot, perping palpable evil by the day.)

Trump's crimes against humanity are not trivial.

If you are not yet open to David Cay Johnston's message, I predict you will agree with him before the Trumpist calamity reaches its bitter end.
