"Donald Trump has made us all (in the media) stupid"
Flopping Aces ^ | 01-12-20 | DrJohn

The left wing media last week: The people of Iran love Soleimani and Khamenei!

This week: Who knew they hated Soleimani and Khamenei? But it's still Trump's fault!

Donald Trump has frequently referred to the left wing media as the "enemy of the people." They then cry about it and whine about a free press but then go on to prove Trump was right.

The press shoved down our throats the notion that the people of Iran loved Qasem Soleimani despite him killing 1500 Iranian protesters last November. Chris Matthews likened Soleimani to Elvis and Princess Diana. The press was impressed with the numbers of mourners without even bothering to note that the "mourners" were ordered into the streets. Schools and shops were ordered closed. They either mourned or they died.

Soleimani also was responsible for the deaths and maiming of thousands of American soldiers.

Journalists mourned Soleimani.

Soleimani was the head of the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC).  Iran has admitted that the Republican Guard shot down the Ukrainian jet. They assert that it was an "accident" but given their mendacity one has to wonder.

The flames of the wreckage were not yet out when the left wing derelict media began blaming not the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps, but Trump. Joy Reid spit out the language of her Iranian handlers.

2020 democrats blamed Trump.

No democrat blamed the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps. Not one.

No one in the left wing media blamed the Islamic Revolutionary Guard, which actually accepted the blame.

“The officials, including aviation authorities, who kept denying a missile hit, are not guilty. We are to blame for everything.”
In 2016 the head of the IRGC aerospace division bragged that anyone in the Guard Corps had the authority to shoot down any aircraft.

No, say democrats. No, says the left wing media. It's all Trump's fault.

But the people of Iran know better. They blame Soleimani. They blame Khamenei

They refuse to trash the US and Israel. Boy is this going to piss democrats and the media off.

Watch what happens when some do

This is a marvelous thing to witness

Jake Tapper has had an epiphany, otherwise known as cover your ass.

David Brooks, the perennial blind squirrel, found an acorn. He said "Trump has made us all stupid."

“Trump has made us all stupid.”

They give him credit for nothing they consider good, and blame for everything they consider bad. Now, apparently, they even blame him for their own stupidity.

I doubt Tapper has had an epiphany.

Oh, the media didn't need President Trump for that -- they've been stupid all along. It's an interesting third option though:
  1. President Trump is a genius, or a least a lot smarter than us.
  2. President Trump is really stupid and vulgar, as we said, but he still beat our asses anyway.
  3. We didn't used to be stupid, but somehow President Trump *made* us stupid.

This is a nice compendium.

Media stars are dumb as boxes of rocks.

What the intellectual and moral mediocrities of the news media lack the wit to understand is that President Donald Trump TOWERS over them intellectually and morally.

The American media is on the side of the totalitarian, repressive, *slamic regime of bearded savages, and against the USA.

Pretty much everyone has known David Brooks was stupid since the Duke Lacrosse hoax.

“Trump has made us all stupid.”

Brooks, you and your lowlife treasonous media POSs didn’t need anyone’s help with that.

The first step in recovery is admitting you have a problem. Kudos to David for acknowledging that he is, indeed, stupid. Next, hopefully he can accept responsibility, and take the necessary steps to change. It’s also important that he changes the groups of people that he hangs out with, such as all the other stupid journalists. There is hope for people who suffer from TDS.

Donald Trump has frequently referred to the left wing media as the "enemy of the people."

IIRC, Pres. Trump correctly calls "fake news" the enemy of the people. So MSM is getting stupider...

President Trump didn’t make them stupid.

President Trump just gets them to revel what they already are, apparently even to themselves!

Win! - Win!

No, you do not look stupid nor are you stupid.

You are evil, corrupt, immoral, America hating, freedom hating, deceitful, lying traitors with an agenda to destroy everything that is right and good and you have FINALLY been exposed by your own crooked hand.

We are not as stupid or gullible as you think we are or wish us to be.

Suck it up, buttercup. We’re not buying your nonsense any more.
