President Donald Trump labeled The New York Times, NBC News, ABC News, CBS News, and CNN enemies of the American people in a tweet Friday.
“The FAKE NEWS media (failing [New York Times], [NBC News], [ABC News], [CBS News], [CNN]) is not my enemy, it is the enemy of the American People,” Trump tweeted. This comes a day after a lengthy combative press conference held by the president at the White House.
Trump said at the presser, “The press has become so dishonest that if we don’t talk about it we are doing a tremendous disservice to the American people. We have to talk about it. We have to find out what’s going on because the press honestly is out of control. The level of dishonesty is out of control.”
The Trump Make American Great Again Committee, composed of Donald J. Trump for President and the Republican National Committee, subsequently sent an email to supporters Thursday titled “You’re our last line of defense.” This email included a link to a “media accountability survey,” which President Trump wrote was necessary for supporters to take to do their “part to fight back against the media’s attacks and deceptions.”
The survey consists of 25 questions and asks people things like, “Do you believe that our Party should spend more time and resources holding the mainstream media accountable?,” or “Do you believe that the media purposely tries to divide Republicans against each other in order to help elect Democrats?”
The latter part of Trump’s fourth week in office has seemed to be concentrated on a war on the press after several major outlets have reported on leaks from intelligence officers and government officials. The president is holding a rally in Florida Saturday because, according to a spokeswoman, the press does not “do the best job delivering his message and nobody does it better than he does.”
Liberal secular Jews despise American values:
If you can sit through an entire episode of a leading u.s. sitcom without throwing up you will see that the producers, writers and the executives want to spread a set of values that are completely antithetical to the ones you were raised with.
That’s because this group despises the values that built America.
they want a completely different country and they control the mainstream media:
That is why they hate the internet and they hate bloggers, because those Avenues present a way to get around their control.
I believe their "Flynn win" will turn into an even bigger loss for them than they had hoped to saddle President Trump with.
Democrafts, liberals - how does your own medicine taste? From Alinsky’s “Rules for Radicals”:
13. Pick the target, freeze it, personalize it, and polarize it. In conflict tactics there are certain rules that [should be regarded] as universalities. One is that the opposition must be singled out as the target and ‘frozen.’...
“...any target can always say, ‘Why do you center on me when there are others to blame as well?’ When your ‘freeze the target,’ you disregard these [rational but distracting] arguments.... Then, as you zero in and freeze your target and carry out your attack, all the ‘others’ come out of the woodwork very soon. They become visible by their support of the target...’
“One acts decisively only in the conviction that all the angels are on one side and all the devils on the other.”
For the very reasons u cite, I have not watched a sitcom in 30 years.

Trump is performing jui jitsu in the left. And they can’t even see it and thus play into it.
Yep, “rope a dope” comes to mind. I’ve heard conservatives whine and moan forever about “Alinsky tactics” but that’s about as effective as running to mommy saying some kid punched you. Instead, our side needs to turn the tables and use their own (proven effective) tactics against the Left.
We are learning. Trump is a natural at this because his mom must have told him not only to fight back, but to hit the other kid twice as hard!
nobody told all the Christians and non secular Jews to watch what they put out.
I was thinking the last sit com I watched when it first came out was MASH

The only way to deal with bullies from time immemorial.
CNN, communist news network. ABC, always boasting communist. NBC, news beholding communism. CBS, communist broadcasting services. MSNBC, misrepresenting & simulating news bout capitalism.
But, even back then you could watch all three news broadcasts and see virtually the same stories in the same time frame of the broadcasts. They were all the same.
Finally, anyone remember the dishonesty of Diane Sawyer and the pickup explosions. They still love to create news rather than reporting it.
Lol, I think that fits me too.
The show leaned left but it was tolerable I think because it was clothed in really funny humor, most of the time.
And, Alan Alda, lefty that he was and is he was FUNNY!
