Dems starting to panic that voters will blame them for riots
American Thinker ^ | 28 July 2020 | Thomas Lifson

Despite the best efforts of the propaganda media (aka, MSM) to sanitize as “mostly peaceful” violent, property-destroying and federal agent-blinding demonstrations that have engulfed Portland, Seattle, and other cities, the American people are catching on that Antifa is the armed auxiliary street force of the Democrat party, just as the KKK was a century and more ago. While the Dems thought that their strategy of making conditions terrible so that voters would throw out the incumbent was sound, it turns out that the availability of dramatic footage of real violence on social media has put the lie to the media coverups.

It’s gotten so bad that Rep. Jerrold Nadler actually insisted that Antifa violence on Portland was a “myth,” only to be hustled away from the interviewer by a staffer who saw the PR disaster that was unfolding.

Evidently, Nadler believed the sanitized version of the demonstrations broadcast by the alphabet networks was bought by the public. (See this hilarious Twitter video on the ins and outs of selling riot footage to the nets.)

Tucker Carlson, the highest rated host in cable news history, regularly calls the rioters “Biden voters,” and that is an easier sale to the public than Nadler’s fantasy.

Well, if The Stupid Party takes Jim Jordan’s lead today, The Stupid Party will play up the looting, riots. and arson committed by The Ruthless Party.

Just make a video of superimposed facial images of Biden, Nadler, Schumer, and Pelosi over the videos of burning buildings throughout cities in America. Subtitle: Democrat Amerika

Is this too complicated?

Nope. Most of the unwashed are totally unaware of the riots. MSNBC and CNN do not show the destruction of America.

They could have Arnold Schwarzenegger fly over the rioters in a black helicopter and then have the MSM report that he opened up on them with 20mm cannon fire and a warrant was issued for his arrest.

Well it worked in the movies, didn't it?

Anyone who is a member of the democrat party is an enemy of the US Constitution.

I could stomach only a few minutes of the hearings. The part I did see seemed to make it evident that the RATs figured out (”the 40 watt bulb”) their riots were harming them a lot.

Did I hear correctly? Did Nadler REALLY try to throw blame from them to Trump? Did he say Trump created the riots to manufacture Trump campaign video clips?

The new narrative is that the riots were organized by White Supremacist agent provocateurs. I’m not joking, it’s out there already in multiple cities, multiple news outlets.

“I expect that ‘Jobs not Mobs’ will resonate with a lot of voters.”

That’s a good slogan. Is it yours?

Democrats and the media encouraged and egged them on from day one.

That’s why their lie “Antifa is a myth” is quickly changing to “It’s rightwing groups (Qanon inspired)”.

Hence the commie symbols...

Every problem is an opportunity in disguise.

That will make this Trump campaign ad devastating when it is on the air 24/7, over and over and over and over again, when it really matters--in October:

” put the lie to the media coverups”!!
When a newsey writes a story with a preordained agenda it is propaganda.
The press is garbage.

That was an America when a Republican could win California. No one could envision a similar result today. I like that the pubs are blue on this map btw.

Media has higher ratings when people are forced to stay home. More people are watching T.V.

Exactly, fake news will go into overdrive about peaceful protests, or not showing them at all, if we don’t report them they don’t exist. Anyone, right or left, that doesn’t believe the media is an extension of the Demon party is ignorant.

Free Republic is a news aggregator. Just because what’s being reported by MSM appears here does not mean it’s supported and if you read the comments about the news item those comments would not appear or be allowed by the original news source.

Is that why there is no ammo and gun sales are through the roof? Word is getting out, just not through the Propaganda Press.

I wish I could claim credit, but no, I didn’t come up with the “Jobs not Mobs” slogan, but I can’t remember where I first saw it. I thought it was catchy, so I’ve been trumpeting it here and there.

Sure they are. Yesterday at the Congressional AG Barr Inquisition they blamed him and POTUS Trump.
