Who are you going to believe?

The liberal MSM, or your own lying eyes?

Think of the pressure on the lefty moderators after what’s just happened to Lauer and Kimmel. The pressure on them from their friends and comrades to croak Trump must be heavy.

They don’t need pressure. They are leftist soldiers already ready for combat. Lauer just had a bad day.

I have always thought that maybe the Present Was born in Hawaii. Maybe they are hiding who his real father is.Either Malcom X or Frank Marshall Davis are two that I wonder about ,with Davis being most likely.

I woke up at 4AM there is nothing but infomercials so I put the TV on BBC. They were whining about Brexit and the far right in France, running across the bottom was Trump says Hillary’s guards should disarm.

I knew exactly what he’d meant because I am not brain dead. I flip it over to Fox and they are talking about it and speculating that Trump wants Hillary assassinated. 30 seconds of the news and I’m already disgusted by their take.

The media has made a tactical error.

If they could have played it straight down the middle for a couple of months then they could have sprung a couple of nasty October surprises and wounded Trump.

Instead they declared all out war on the guy from day one—so now the majority of the public knows the war is on and will (rightly) suspect that anything the media says between now and election day is disinformation and part of the war effort.

Trump needs to attack the media head on—and try to get them angry, frustrated and over the top now so everyone laughs at them from now until election day.

Citizen Trump v liars, losers, conmen, criminals, collectivists, scumbags, statists, socialists, progressives, propagandists, punks, politicians, tyrants, thieves, totalitarians.

He has played them again by the unarmed statement. They are so into the seek and destroy mode now that they will be making continual missteps in their zeal to get even for being punked. On this issue, they will attempt to set the narrative only to be punked again, even worse.

When they start their crap, he will reel them in again only to play her words in how she wants to disarm Joe Six-Pack but is alright with her guards being armed to the hilt. I’m not totally sure how it will go down, but it will be just as spectacular as the smackdown was yesterday.

Kellyanne and Bannon have set the orchestration pit with the correct instruments and the sheet of music, the media has been relegated to simply noisy bystander status and will shortly be looking for the side exit doors.

I’m thinking that the truly “undecideds” will gravitate toward Trump if he continues the way he has.

1. The MSM is pretty much despised if polling is correct, and Trump is brutal with them.

2. If nothing else, people are realizing that America might be fun, active, and interesting again if Trump is running the show. They’ll vote for him because they can be engaged and interested.

Back in 2012 when Newt was running I remember the time at a debate in Myrtle Beach (nationally televised) when Newt ripped the media moderators a new one. His popularity soared after that. DT may have that same opportunity to expose the leftist Hillary cheerleaders.

Yeah, let’s put Anderson cooper in charge. He is a fine disease-ridden faggot. Let him control the debate.

I look forward to a zinger like this to one of the debate moderators:

“If anyone actually wanted to hear your opinion on ____ they might watch your network. What are your ratings again?”

;-)

No, they don’t know who Obama’s daddy is, and neither does Obama.

The more plausible scenario is that he was born in Hawaii, but then spent the first 20+ years of his life pretending he was a foreign national.

I'm not interested in his college grades. I'm interesting in how he represented himself on his college applications.

This factor has probably added at least 10%-15% more voters to his column in every primary during the GOP campaign. It's also going to help him make inroads into Clinton's support among blacks, who are culturally conditioned to place a high value on entertainment.

Michael Medved yesterday spewed disdain and hatred for Trump over the birther issue. Sounds like he’s working hand in hand with the Democrats to elect Hillary and diminish enthusiasm for Trump among the electorate. Why is Medved still given a platform on talk radio?
