Trump needs to chill a bit. Have thicker skin.
This is a common MSM fraud media move:
1. Get photo of nut in audience
2. Get photo of candidate you don’t like with their mouth open - which makes everyone look terrible.
3. Show empty space in stadium or room or whatever.
Creates the spin the campaign lacks momentum.
Meanwhile, for Obama’s 2008 media love fest the crowds were amazing, women were fainting, the oceans were healing...
Just don;t use the F word... Otherwise I don’t blame him they look like they did surge the podium, As to the Sen Scott event, They showed an empty row of seats in the very back. It was clear they kept those empty so the cameras behind would have an unobstructed view.
The thing about Trump is that he’s not just going to accept that the MSM commits fraud and publicizes propaganda. Why should he? It’s gotten to the point that we suffer from battered wife syndrome and believe that any candidate should accept it as par for the course. A candidate who can successfully maneuver through that MSM minefield with a deft touch. That’s what we are asking and that’s what we seek. About as likely as unicorns.
So it’s either travel through the maze of MSM propaganda and emerge unscathed just enough to possibly win an election. Or burn the whole thing down. I’m in favor of the latter.
Trump strategy is to stay everyday in news cycle, because there is a big gap from now till first primary poll. He is stealing rest of field time on TV and news.
Well that’s what’s endearing about Trump: He rails against any MSM fraud move against him, instead of being silent like GWB in the face of withering attacks. But I don’t see why Trump overreacted by saying, “I just got killed on that thing”.
I don’t think it’s gonna harm him as badly as he claims.
Hoping that Sessions or another person close to Trump clues him in that if he calms down a bit, he can start looking like the person with class in the face of the inevitable underhanded attacks.
Every attack picture that goes out, Trump can put out an ad with two pictures (he has his own photogs, right?) with the respective titles “Illusion” and “Truth.”
If it’s the picture I think, the whole auditorium was full except one row reserved for the press who are down front, then after pictures they return to their seats. It was dishonest, but typical.
I don’t think its a thick skin thing, I think its a calling it out thing, and I think Trump should call em out on everything they do. The press lie, and folks just take it...I think he needs to call them out on every little thing they do.
I’m not saying going ballistic over every slight, but call them on every single one, so that the other side gets out.
Otherwise the only story told is the falsehood the media wants to portray.
So, I don’t see this as a thicker skin issue, I see it as Trump understanding the game and having none of it.
It’s about damn time somebody called the media out on their dirty tricks.
