The media doesn’t help

That’s why I say ignore all media

Trump has been saying the same things for thirty plus years

“This is exactly why we are happy that Trump is the Republican nominee. He is in it to win it, not to graciously lose to Hillary.”

Precisely. The dimoKKKRATS must be worried.

I only read news HERE. But those things get posted here and I freak out!!

But I’ve learned. #### the polls.

#### TV.

Just donate and get out the vote. Make sure everyone we know votes.

I know NY is a hard one. But you never know.

He’s not seen as a classic republican but there are so many ######s in manhattan, ah, lets see what happens ;)

Take everything the media says with a grain of salt.

If they are not cutting and pasting out of context what Trump said, they are making up outright lies about him. That is what they have devolved into doing.

I think many of them will come around as the election gets closer.

Would they prefer 'him who maketh $billions' or 'she who taketh $billions'?

I would surmise they benefit more from the former than the latter.

I doubt Romney’s competence and sanity after he imploded himself with his nevertrump diatribes...

I knew this day would come, that the 'news media' would start lying outright.

I just didn't expect it so soon.

We are what the Soviet Union left behind.

I can’t trust my political instincts at all anymore. I thought Romney was a decent guy

Yeah dude. No offense, but if you thought Romney was okay... yeah. Don't trust your instincts. :)

Romney was so polite he didn’t mention the Benghazi attack in the second debate…polite and worthless.

We have become them.
The KGB started something that took on a life of its own nourished by American leftists and the seeds they planted so many years ago have blossomed into the USSA.
Obamanation.
The Ministry of Propaganda does not even try to pretend objectivity anymore.

Very true and it’s confusing the hell out of the pundits as you see people from all over the political spectrum voicing their support for Trump.

Hell, they're proud of their propaganda.

And if you call them objective, these day, they'll physically fight you. Them's fightin' words.

After Romney won the first debate by a wide margin, the moderator openly jumped in to save Obama in the second debate, lying about what Hussein said about Benghazi. In the third debate, Romney didn’t even try to win.

Meanwhile, RINO Ryan managed to get outpointed by clown Biden in their single debate.

Pathetic.

Not so easy to win when you’ve got an actual opponent, instead of a shadow party II puppet taking a dive.

You are doing good

In the sixties the GOP was saying what Trump is saying now Then Nixon reinvented himself because he loved power.....

They’re “horrified” because they live in a wussy politically correct bubble of their own making that they think represents Real America. They are going to get the surprise of their lives!

What Trump says is what real people say. How he says things is how real Americans talk. The fact that a grandma in Iowa uses a phrase like “colored people” no more makes her a racist than using a broom makes her a witch!

The media-Democrat-academic complex thinks everyone like us is stupid and a very tiny minority of the population and that the bulk of the USA thinks like they do.

Best. Election. Ever.

If Trump is so terrible, then why is he the republican NOMINEE? If Trump is so terrible, then by proxy so are his supporters.

Here’s a little game we can all play every time a new poll or anti-Trump article comes out of the MSM:

1. Ask yourself, “What makes me think this is true?”. If it’s from a source you trust, that’s one thing, but often times it’s not.

2. Ask yourself, does this source respect and treat Trump fairly? Or are they anti-Trump?

3. If the answer is no, then re-read the piece with a critical eye, and look for loaded words, undocumented assertions, weak arguments, or other logical or factual flaws. Also ask yourself, was this written this way to hurt or demean Trump? Would the same wording have been used to describe Hillary or a Democrat?

All these are critical thinking skills that are easily learned by anyone, and which have nothing to do with being smarter or anything else. Just like learning to use a new tool or activity, it takes practice to get the brain engaged in critical thinking when it’s easy to just be lazy and let total crap filter in unchecked.

I used to tune in to FoxNews of a morning to get the overnight headlines.

I don’t even do that anymore.

Unless something major happened overnight, I just check the FR threads.
