of public life is never to cross the media. You dare not provoke or agitate them. Trump broke that rule many times at his White House briefings and at his campaign rallies. It's a basic rule which everyone in public life needs to observe and respect....Obama got it right and you might say that Obama was a useless POTUS but the reality is that he served two terms uninterrupted with the support of the media throughout his tenure. Trump tripped and fell over and it cost him an election. Michael Jackson was another who failed to understand that you play the media while you sing the song. He dared to take them on and failed as well. The media will wear BS but they won't wear being insulted, provoked or agitated.....Trump was guilty on all counts. Instead he was too arrogant and dumb not to play the media. A bit of humility would have helped.


It's all quite simple......the media thrives on controversy and the public enjoys controversy, they don't enjoy boring....boring doesn't sell, controversy does, it also headlines tomorrow's newspapers. Trump was made for media headlines, he bred life into them. He is now entering an interesting phase in his latest attempts to be POTUS. Not as bad an apple this time round with the media because he is sans White House briefings but that might change closer to the election. The media doesn't forget or forgive and Trump with his abrasive manner having never made any peace with them might still remain a soft target.


His problems as we all know is the mountain of charges facing him in law courts. I honestly don't know which one of the two is better to face down....the media or the law courts, I can only guess that if and when he's found guilty the media will descend on him like a pack of vultures.


How on Earth he survives both will take a miracle.

The war of the media started before his election and that was before he gave WH  press conferences.     The media were  fed lies and they published lies mostly related to collusion between Trump and Putin.   That was the reason why Trump ended u,p refusing tot ake questions from some agencies.    

If you are under constant attack on a daily basis answering questions was what Trump was still prepared to have press briefings and gave factual replies to questions only to find they audit what he said and came up with BS.

Oh the irony of this ....

The way that the media did anything and everything that they could to paint Trump in a bad light, and derail any kind of progress that he could make as president.... is in my opinion, precisely why he might become the very next president of the USA.

The American people have quite clearly woken up to the fact that they were duped in so many ways, into believing all the negative b ullshit media hype surrounding Donald Trump during his presidency.

He might be guilty of some of these things that he is accused of, and if he is.... bye bye Donald ...but how he was treated and constantly lied about, to fool so many people into no longer supporting him or voting for him, was despicable.

How the FBI and DOJ responded to the Hunter Biden laptop in particular was deplorable.

When Mark Zuckerberg had to openly admit that the FBI requested them to keep certain information out of the media about Hunter .... that opened the doors to so much more.

When 30 plus FBI whistleblowers came out to provide evidence against senior people at the FBI and DOJ who were actively targeting Trump to create a negative view in the public eye ....then Pandora's box jumped wide open.

Even if Trump doesn't become the next president, the American people as a whole, now know that there were far more underhanded activities going on, behind closed doors, to disrupt Trump during his presidency, than any other president prior to Trump.

Here is a secret that some bloggers need to understand.

ALL MEDIA IN THE USA IS BIASED with respect to President Trump.

Except for the following: NBC, CNN, ABC, MSNBC the Washington Post, New York Times etc.

In addition we also have the great FBI, DOJ covering some of his crimes by not releasing the information plus some Republican AG's hiring their "Lover Boy" inflating the salary bracket and spending "Holidays" crusing, humping and living it up all on tax  dollars in between meetings with the current President's staff in the WH who are directing the defence of DT.

No wonder the citizens of "Disney Land" don't trust or respect President Trump.

Got it ,,,,good.

FOUR MORE YEARS.

The Great news is that Trump has caused the Globalist media to lose control of the narrative. 

I posted an article by the head honcho at the Wall Street Journal lamenting their loss of control over the news!

The Globalist at Davos 2024 are also saying their narratives are not being accepted. 

No man has done more to break the hold of the Globalist media than President Trump. 

Truly they are the mortal enemy of the People.

Ain't it just a tad suspicious that it was right after Trump got elected that the media started pimping wokeness on overdrive? There was always a clear divide between right and left media. But right media stayed pretty much the same when Trump got in. It was leftist media that seemed to basically lose its mind. BLM, LGBT, defund the Police, Portland riots...and more. All such worthy causes, so righteous and so the opposite of Trump. All supported 110% by the left media. On the right you had Fox supporting Trump. That's about all they did. On the left...it was the Russia hoax, it was BLM and Trump hates blacks, LGBT and Trump hates them gays, and Trump pisses on strippers, and Trump hates Mexicans too, the summer of "love". MSCNNBC looked like they had taken a bet to see who could rid themselves of journalistic integrity fastest. Remember that Sandman case? A sixteen year old kid doing nothing but smiling...being verbally abused by some blacks and then accosted by an old Indian dude. CNN had the tapes but chose to leave out the part where a kid is abused while making the world believe Sandman was some kind of Nazi...because MAGA hat. I mean, the left really lost their minds during Trump. So much so that it's kinda obvious that it was not simply attention whoring. No. It was more than that.

Wrong. The media do not lose their minds, the media does what it does and that is to sensationalize.....your mate Beeno is a prime example....he buys into it.......then he shoves it on to us to buy into it as well.

And it's not Orange Man Bad....it's Orange Man Stench!

If you, believe the 6 January propaganda BS  story then You must be kidding .    By the way the death story was also BS .  There was nobody murdered that day bar two women killed by the Police.   .   They claimed there were 5 policemen killed that day -  but no names were ever released  bar one that based on security cameras shown being alive after the people left the Capitol.    The names of the other 4 deaths was never released - it was just plain lies and BS.    Trump was never charged by anybody with  anything - so lets face facts - 90% of what happened that day had zero to do with  Trump - the rest had everything to do with  the propaganda machine of the Democrats.

It was just a repeat with the lied fed to and used by the media aimed at the midterm election of 2022 - but after the release of the security camera footage the media kept quirt about the issue - other than Fox News no other media showed what the security cameras revealed on what really happened.    So carry on believing the lies and BS about Trump. 

By the way the Sandman kid claimed $250 million libel damages  from 5 of the media outlets and they all settled  before going to trial - the guestimate being that the damages each outlet had to pay being at least $50 million each.   The youngster was 16 years old when the incident  happened and when he finished school and applied for University admission the first five universities he applied for admission refused to allow him entry.    However he had at least $200 million in the bank so that helped him for the rest of his life.

However, there was another 17 year-old kid that was under media attack and that one was lies again.   The kid Ritterhouse was accused of murder - when he defended himself against 3 Antifa members during the riots of 2020 and they intended to murder him and one even was aimed at with a  pistol when the kid used a gun to defend himself.    All three attackers were White  with criminal records a mile long -  - but Biden and the rest called him a racist.    End result was he was found not guilty in court hen it came out the DA was lying about what really happened on the day.    It took the jury less than 2 hours to find the kid innocent.    End result there were libel claims of $1,2 billion each claimed by the kid from 6 media  outlets and the same amount claimed against the Biden WH.    Since the media statements were all lies they are now trying to negotiate a settlement with him and Biden went quiet on the issue.   They also are negotiating settlement deals with him and his attorneys - but in that case a settlement of less than $500 million each are unlikely.   The problem with the Biden case is that the US taxpayers are likely to have to pay for the idiotic Biden BS he caused.

The fact is that the riots of 2020 was not covered because it was "peaceful protests" against racialism organized and funded by the Democratic Party and the result was not epacxeful as the media alleged.    The real facts are that in the riots - 

*    46 people (inclusive of 13 police officers)  were murdered by the rioters;

*     over 1200 police officers were seriously injured injured by the rioters using firearms adn Molotov cocktails provided to the rioters on an organized basis; and

*     over $5 billion in damages through looting and arson was caused during the riots. 

The Democratic Party refused to have the riots  investigated by Congress and  the Justice Department under Garland refused to lay charges of even murder against the rioters and set free the 1500 arrested rioters from jail.   In one case where a retired and highly respected Black policemen tried to prevent the rioters from attacking a small business he ran - the Department of Justice refused to charge two individuals who actually murdered the guy during the riots with murder.   The Governor of Missouri refused to accept that Justice Department decision  and appointed a private company to prosecute the two individuals.    It took the jury 20 minutes to reach a decision on the case and found the two individuals charged guilty.    

The Republican controlled House si soon to investigate that issue and if Trump is ere-electd as President the rest of the murderous rioters will face charges/   

In summary - it would be wise to  treat whatever appears in the US media as to Trump with total disregard of the truth - as was proved subsequently as  lies spread by the Demcorats and the Obama administration and now by the Biden Administration.    Insofar as Biden is concerned the Biden alleged involvement in bribery and corruption using Hunter Biden as his bagman is ignored by the media.    Biden's impeachment for bribery and corruption are being investigated by the House and it is very likely that he will be impeached by the House.   Incidentally according to opinion polls 42% of he voters believe Biden is indeed guilty of taking bribes - while 20% said his conduct was improper.    However, the media claimed there is no evidence of Biden being linked to his son's corrupt activities.    If he is charged the media will be orced to report on it and that is not going to help Biden in the upcoming election.

Oh I see.....when it's spoken by you it's the truth....Really?......funny though that at least a half a dozen on here believe you're a liar and have told you so.

I prefer The Guardian......nothing like brainwashing for free.
