President Trump 2.0: The NEW one and only politics thread

It's never been true?

Again, it's been true. I still think it is. Though this isn't a newsroom, it's played out here.

And Trump can be as bad as he is, and that's not really the argument I'm making. It could be any right-leaning politician. It could be any right-leaning issue.

 

What stories are not being covered because of liberal bias in newsrooms?

Now, differentiate that from what stories are not being covered because newsrooms have been gutted by corporations, egotistical billionaires, and hedge fund owners.

 

Biden's inability to do the job after the 2022 mid-terms. Ignored. By almost everyone. Full-court press coverage on Trump and Stormy Daniels, part whatever. Blithe cluelessness on Biden. The least amount of leaks of any administration ever! Eh. People knew, and didn't report. Wasn't the cool thing to do. Just like Newsweek sat on Clinton/Lewinsky.

My recent election is a mandate to completely and totally reverse a horrible betrayal and all of these many betrayals that have taken place and to give the people back their faith, their wealth, their democracy, and indeed, their freedom. From this moment on, America’s decline is over.

Such a jerk. And imagine, he's our President, again.

 

Show your receipts, Alma.

 

OK, I looked at the last three pages of the old thread, and I've read to this point on this one, and it just pisses me off. So my decision to stay away from these threads is confirmed.

Y'all play nice.

Even more, CNN got on its knees to lick Trump's boots.

Alma's just doing an extended victory lap. He's very much like Scott Jennings.

 

David Roberts:

The rules, if you are keeping track: If a single left activist anywhere in the world says "defund the police," it becomes the official position of the Democratic Party, now and forever. If the president's top surrogate repeatedly sieg-heils on stage, it's ambiguous, impossible to interpret.

 

The “mainstream media” don’t do a lot of stories about Bigfoot and the Loch Ness Monster, probably for the same reason they didn’t report on that issue.

There was no there there.

 

I'm curious what's pissed you off? I've read through these first pages and found them very insubstantial. Shockingly so, actually.
