What did Elon Musk do this time.

The thing is that I'm pretty sure Trump is in late stage senility now so that he's a prop for the Heritage Foundation and Silicon Valley to wheel out these days.

Ironic given their Biden complaints.
Then there would at least be some measure of justices coming to that personality. So much of this could've been prevented from happening, if people just couldn't buy themselves out of the judicial process. Trump's a rapist, a conman and insurrectionist. Musk is a monopolist and god only knows what else will come out in due time. And this keeps giving. You'd be hard-pressed to find a single politician who isn't some sort of fraud or rapist and otherwise "above the law".

Also, fuck Biden. He refused to do what was necessary and set up the election for failure. First through hubris and then through enforcing Harris. May his grave be pissed on daily.

I believe no one but Biden could have beaten Trump and the DNC chose the best qualified candidate. They just did so after stabbing him in the back and showing their utter contemptible lack of support for someone who had faced Republican obstruction the entire time.

But I don't blame them.

No, I blame the media constantly running anti-Biden media and sane washing Trump. If 1/6th of the voters who didn't turn up for Harris had turned up (that DID turn up for Biden) then we would have won.

Mind you, even if they didn't, Elon and Trump keep bragging they stole the election too.

I saw plenty of anti-Trump articles. Usually just covering him in what else was new that he said at one of his rallies that made no sense. Or descriptions of Trump's rallies getting smaller and people leaving early. Also plenty of talk about Project 2025 as well.

Maybe that was just me then.

The articles were negative but always framed in the tamest manner possible. Not, "Horrific monster does evil shit" which they deserved to be.

I blame Biden for making Garland AG and then doing nothing when he dragged his feet for years to keep Trump from facing any consequences for his many crimes.

OK this gets complicated. And I don't know to articulate this correctly right now.

So basically what you want is MSM liberal news to become what Newsmax and OAN is? Right? Just do hit pieces of him on a daily basis?

Problem is that what they actually did was still considered hit pieces on Trump even if they were tame. The problem is that they are trying to report the news on Trump, but trying to be as diplomatic as possible.

Remember, the term MSM Main Stream Media has been turned into a Liberal only propaganda thing that has been villianized by the Far Right. Nevermind the Most Watched News Network is Fox News. They would be considered MSM but they get pass as long as they toe the party line. Some cases they don't.

So thd problem here. Is MSNBC, CNN and so forth, all liberal news got put into this liberal news group that should be automatically ignored due to their liberal leaning. Nevermind how diplomatic they could be in reporting what Trump does.

Nevermind, this idea that many want where the news should just report the news without a bias opinion on it. But how do you do that when party lines is already made between every media outlet?

It goes deeper than that as well. What happens when a sports player talks about something liberal? Well the Far right shuts them down and say they should stay in their lane aka sports. Or any celebrity for that matter. All because what they said is what I don't agree with, don't agree with their political leanings.

What happens when a Far right leaning celebrity says something? Ohh it's OK on what they said. Because what they say is what I agree with. They are just being shit down by the liberal MSM.

I guess you could say the liberal news was playing it safe because they were playing by the old rules and the Far right was breaking the unwritten rules of journalism.

The greatest lie that Reagan ever committed was claiming that LIberal media exists.

Ehhh.

His greatest lie was that CEOs would trickle down their wealth. CEOs were smarter than everyone in the country.

I mean, Jack the Ripper doesn't need advocacy. Reporting the truth on Trump is reporting evil.
