Brief Article pretty much describes the one quality Trump’s fans love so much and the one that pisses off his detractors royally.
“Normal Americans have watched our politics turn to mud for a quarter century, since Bill Clinton, the Arkansas corruptocrat. We’ve watched it and watched it while the media turned into a copycat Soviet propaganda ministry, and now, finally, somebody is acting like an adult and talking without having to explain every single word.”
“the media turned into a copycat Soviet propaganda ministry.”
Yes Mr Lewis. It’s a Soviet-Style Media or SSM for short. Better late than never Mr. Lewis.
The mainstream media is not lame any more than the Charlotteville PD (who easily herded warring factions together into a narrow space) were lame yesterday.
When global or local institution operatives don’t do what John Q Public expects, it is because corrupted bosses have ordered them to do the opposite and not because they have abandoned truth. The SSM’s predominance still permits them to control the narrative and even the meaning of words, none of it to the good of individuals and their rights. That is very far from lame. Pravda and Izvestia were hardly lame for a over 70 years.

This Wabbit couldn’t agree more. Out there, where most folks get their news from television and maybe – at best – one or two newspapers, the enemy holds the high ground, and his propaganda works.
Made all the more deadly because the recipients have been pre-indoctrinated by Gramsci’s “education” systems.
I never mistake conversation in an echo chamber for reality on the battlefield.
Very well said.
Locked and loaded
Simpleton journo brains struggle as usual to understand such complicated and obscure turns of phrase.
These failed actors, I mean journos may have their pieces of paper from the man telling them they’re qualified to deliver the news. Competency is a completely different matter. Either way, with a Trump hit piece a day you know there is no questioning of the buzz word of the moment – BIAS
The last time I checked, Trump’s poll numbers are getting higher. So for all the efforts of the Big Media, the Trumpster is doing okay and reforming the government like crazy…..Also, despite decades of Big Media Leftist propaganda, the Right is still alive, well and electing Republicans in local, state and federal offices to the tune of over 1,000.
Yes, there is the neo-Nazi Mueller and his gang of merry witch hunters out there, but nothing they can do that will automatically bring down Trump – there is Congress standing in the way….The courts…and….most importantly… We The people. Trump can pardon himself, or anyone else they “finger.” Best of all, Herr Mueller and his neo-Nazi lawyers can be up on charges themselves.
The law cuts both ways.
Of course, the neo-Nazi Left can murder him…but with adult sons around who will be waving their father’s bloody shirt and eligible to stand for the presidency – Julius Caesar would be replaced by Augustus Caesar in short order.
I am beginning to enjoy Trump’s Presidency. The months since his victory have raced by yet none of the absurdities predicted by Trump critics have occurred. I enjoy his candour, humour and lack of contrivances. Trump’s announcements are just that; announcements rather than contrived productions as was the specialty of his fore-runner. I remain disappointed that he’s still not prosecuted Hillary. Nobody’s perfect!
The prosecution of the dread Hildabeast?
Maybe when Trump gets the FBI and DOJ under his control – Right now both organizations have gone rogue for the Deep State of Obama.
The traitors will have to be dug out one by one – and this will take time.
In the meanwhile,the Hildabeast and Rapist Bill aren’t going anywhere they can’t be found and returned for trial.
