Again, trump signs something that you'd expect to have general support... but his fear of facing the media...
I wanted to post this in the picture thread in the hangout, but I know it would put some posters’ panties in a bunch.
LOL... looks like you can add conservative columnist SE Cupp into the list of republicans that trump has alienated...
Gee, when karl rove compares you to Stalin... Rove: Trump should 'tone down' attacks on media http://thehill.com/homenews/adminis...wn-attacks-on-media?__twitter_impression=true
https://www-m.cnn.com/2018/08/03/op...-opinion/index.html?r=https://t.co/lyCEY7Le0G We thank soldiers for their service because they devote themselves to protecting our freedoms, and we should. But we should also thank the media for the same reason -- especially when the stakes have never been higher.
Nice to see CNN adding S.E. Cupp to the lineup. One of the smart conservatives (and have crushed on her glasses for years).
Sorry, I don't click on sketchy looking embedded youtubes. Summarize their point and the source? Or perhaps post with an article from a reputable news source that supports the claim made. You seem to believe is reputable and newsworthy, so this must be well-reported...
How bout me for a source? This supposed "Trump supporter" is in fact a gun grabber (as seen by his own YouTube channel). He belongs to several "anti Trump" online groups and has taken down his Twitter since this story got some traction. This dude is about as much a Trump voter as I am a Hillary voter. But not according to CNN!
Here's Newsbusters link: https://www.newsbusters.org/blogs/n...nns-trump-voter-actually-anti-trump-socialist Here's the guys own FB page link...he's a Socialist supporting Ocasio-Cortez. He also has posts supporting Immigrants with No Trump posts. https://www.facebook.com/jeremy.montanez?ref=br_rs
If he's correct, CNN mistakenly labeled one person a "Trump supporter," when that was false. I assume, like with many news orgs, they take people at their word when just filming little sound bites. Like FOX hasn't mislabeled entire fields of study, never mind a single talking head. LOL. And 45 calls anyone who dares stand up to him a "democrat." But okay, I do believe CNN has made many mistakes, not just calling this one guy a Trump supporter.
Heh... I was wondering what could have possibly triggered his trump supporter "CNN is fake news"... since he was responding to a post about a conservative getting hired by CNN.
One side effect of Trump's mindless attacks on the media is that normal people start to forgive or ignore the actual issues in MSM like CNN. Trump attacks CNN and other MSM outlets because of negative coverage of him. It has nothing to do with accuracy. What this results in is a mass of followers who hate MSM for the wrong reasons when there are legitimate criticisms and the MSM can hide behind the absurd rhetoric because now they are the victim of pure unadulterated hate. CNN has issues. They regurgitate click bait "discussions" that go nowhere. A Trump pundit and a "non crazy pundit" duke it out in an unproductive debate about the latest tweet. Tackling nuanced issues like healthcare, the deficit, wage stagnation is past them. 24/7 coverage of a Trump pundit bending like a pretzel to defend the latest absurd Trump tweet generates views though. CNN has issues. Reporting objectively false information isn't one of them. They just suck at discussing relevant subject matter and these Trump attacks are from a selfish perspective of protecting himself, not genuine criticisms and CNN now can hide behind these absurd attacks and now rational people ignore the legitimate criticism and have to defend CNN thus they are empowered to continue their **** ways.
It's been one and a half years, and this lie of a thread title is still up and hasn't been edited. I've pointed out several times that, by omitting two words, "FAKE NEWS" media, this title is a complete and pointed lie. Trump has, at no point, ever said the media is the enemy of the American people. Mods, since this has not been corrected, I assume it is completely okay for me and anyone else to create numerous threads going forward with completely inaccurate and purposefully misleading titles. No?
Ya so on actual practice his supporters believe that the NYT, WaPo, CNN, BBC, AP, New Yorker and pretty much any publication that has expressed criticism of him is "fake news". He has successfully merged "criticism of Trump" with ''fake news". So replace "fake news" with "news critical of me is the enemy of the people". Do you think posters here are that dumb with your bs post? We exactly know what Trump means by "fake news". It's clear as night and day and can be seen with how his supporters define "fake news". Read my post above yours. Trump's "criticism" of the media is from a pure personal self-interest, not from a interest of legitimate criticism of the MSM that they rightlyfuly deserve.
