When Truth Trumps Lies: MSNBC Host Says Trump 'Promised American Carnage' – He Promised the Opposite
Red State ^ | 7 April 2024 | Mike Miller

Posted on 04/08/2024 2:53:57 AM PDT by Sam77

As the Democrat Party and its quasi-official state media continue to melt into puddles of histrionic goo because of the stark reality that Donald J. Trump might very well again be elected president of the United States in November, articles about their hysterics get more and more fun to write.

This is one of those articles.

MSNBC's "This Weekend" co-anchor Symone Sanders-Townsend (who was also Sen. Bernie Sanders' (I-VT) 2016 national press secretary), declared on Saturday's episode of the hopelessly biased show that Trump "promised carnage" in his January 2017 Inauguration Day address.

Just one problem.

MSNBC has a tiny audience and no conservatives watch it.

They are trying to hold their base together with the abortion issue.

I think we should ban any re-transmission of their lies on FR, along with CNN and select MSM outlets.

It is amazing how these “news” people can just glibly lie like they do and still keep their jobs. This tells me that the news networks are biased and would rather have a senile, child sniffing Biden in the oval office (because it’s really Obama running things) than a good man who wants to see the country thrive. Sad.

“It is amazing how these “news” people can just glibly lie like they do and still keep their jobs.”

Trump, hopefully gets elected again and implements a “fairness doctrine.” This would mean, news media reports the news in a non-biased manner, opinion is highlighted when not news as is commentary. You want to be a left winger and peddle your drivel to the public, then label it as such and compete with opposing ideas.

The difference between the left in the media and the right is the right freely admits they are commentators and are offering up their opinions, while the left tries to hide their bias by calling it news.

It may not happen soon, but at some point, someone will write a history book and each page will be divided into thirds:

1) Here is what the fact was at the time.
2) Here is what the media knew about the fact at that time.
3) Here is what the media said at that time.

Same for the government.

Example:

1) The FBI knew that Hunter’s laptop was the real deal.
2) The media knew very well that Hunter’s laptop was the real deal.
3) The media chose to defend the Bidens by publishing stories about Russian disinformation.

Ashley Biden’s diary.
Trump calling for violence.
Classified documents stored in this place or that place.

It’s all just blatant lying and cover-ups — always to protect the Left and their illegal coup d’etat.

The election of Trump will definitely result in severe rioting and chaos! The democrats would again start rioting and burning down cities. There will indeed be carnage in the streets of america. Nice country you got there, shame if something happen to it. Better elect democrats so it doesn’t get burned down.

It’s how the mafia works. There’s nothing new under the sun.

I think that after November 2024, the losing side is going to break a lot of stuff.

Do not go gentle into that good night.
Rage, rage against the dying of the light.

“The democrats would again start rioting and burning down cities. ‘

Fine

Wall them off and let them burn.
No one in or out.
Let them live in the wasteland they create.

For any Mega MAGA Patriots still there, get out while you can

“Wall them off and let them burn.”

That wont work well you see because americans will be told that the rioting, carnage, violence and the images of burning cities is because a republican is in office.

A fact that is undeniable.

Mike Miller’s article at Red State was posted a day-and-a-half after this article at NewsBusters, and borrows heavily from it without attribution.

“No Symone, Trump Didn’t ‘Promise’ American Carnage—He Promised To Stop It!”
