We should never "normalize" Trump.

This morning I awoke early and snapped on CNN just in time to see a discussion about the DNC/Clinton/Sanders/Brazile brouhaha. On the screen, in large letters, was Trump's latest tweet about the story and it started out by calling Elizabeth Warren "Pocahantas." I listened to the discussion - same old, same old pit Dems against one another - and expected someone might comment on the racist comment issued by the current occupant of the Oval Office. Crickets. Nothing. I was astonished. How can they ignore that kind of name calling?
