Discussion: Trump Calls Media The 'Enemy Of The American People'

1 Like

Is American the Fatherland or the Motherland? I think that’s the last jot that needs to be cleared up in order to complete Trump’s vision.

Never pick a fight with a man that buys pixels by the terabyte.

Can he be more blatant about his authoritarian aims? Well, maybe…anyone reading a statement like that from the president should be chilled to the bone, and furious. The media does fail in a lot of ways, but in no way is it the enemy of the people…it has been our salvation many times, and will need to be again this time.

I do fear for the health of the nation though, if enough people become convinced that the media is lying and believe their own facts (which are not real), we’re headed for a major showdown between reality and fantasy. And, honestly, I’m not sure which one will win in the end the way things are going.

Hmm. On Trump’s twitter feed, Little Green Charles Johnson takes him to task. Weird.

Such a pathetic asshole. He really should be on the end barstool at the corner bar, driving everyone away with his opinions and weirdness. OMG, Cliff Clavin has become President.

Take heart in the fact that his poll numbers continue to drop. People get it.

The MSM is culpable - they rarely challenged him during the campaign. They laughed it off because it made for a good story…

Did the so-called President go on to call religion the “opiate of the people?”

Just asking.

Yes. And then he’ll call for their other favorite thing - their guns.

But they also addressed/ challenged him, when it had to happen.

Were they perfect? No

But from Tierney Sneed to Maggie Haberman, the American press corps did outstanding work last year.
