I hope that this campaign keeps exposing the media for what they are. This is a good example of that.

They spend more time dealing with the alleged bigotry of something on twitter, than they do on the Hillary Clinton story.

And as we saw with the Orlando massacre, the media turned it into a story about the need for gun control. The media to this day completely ignore the fact that Orlando was the deadliest Muslim terrorist attack in America since 9/11.

Sheeesh.... when I first saw it, I never thought it was a Sheriff’s star and certainly didn’t think it was a Star of David which has it’s own unique configuration. I just thought it was a piece of clip-art that I’d seen endless times before on sales flyers that seem to stuff my mailbox. So do those all have an anti-Semitic undertone to them too? Good grief.... CNN has really jumped the shark on this one.

” Mr. Trump, we know the media is biased. We know Clinton is a liar. Give us a reason to vote for you aside from the fact that Clinton’s are scum. “

A made up question, but is that a reasonable question, even for those of us who will vote for Trump?

Hillary can’t be trusted. The media can’t be trusted. Can’t be said enough times. I’m glad Trump isn’t too nice to say it.

Presumptive GOP nominee Donald Trump criticized CNN, which he calls the “Clinton News Network,”

This man knows how to fight. He puts them (CNN) on the defensive by deliberately describing them as biased in a cutesy amusing fashion which will resonate with the public.

Because it is amusing, the accusation will get repeated by word of mouth far beyond their ability to counter it.

And *THAT*, ladies and gentlemen, is how it's done.

While I applaud Trump for lambasting CNN, I hope it does not come back to bite him because CNN actually provided the best live coverage of his rallies in Raleigh and Cincinnati!!!
On Tuesday, CSPAN has technical difficulties and didn’t show the Raleigh rally until several hours later.
Last night, CSPAN was mandated to stick with gavel-to-gavel coverage of the lengthy House session as well as other Senate matters on CSPAN 2—and again did not air Trump until after 2AM!!!
Fox rarely preempts O’Reilly and therefore cuts off Trump at that point—and MSNBC literally sucks!!
Moreover, last night, Wayne DuPree discussed with one of the RSBN technicians about how there has been some apparent hacking/interference on their video at recent Trump rallies!! Three guesses as to who may be responsible!!
Again, while I love Trump taking CNN to task over their bias, I fear that they will retaliate and deny future live coverage in the critical months ahead!!!

Someone in Trump’s campaign has a star that some say is the star of David. Media goes wild over it.

clinton breaks the law and is given a free pass through political corruption. Media happy.

If, God forbid, he loses, I will follow him in the revolt.

Gotta love the guy.

Oh, unless you’re a “principled conservative” that wont vote for him.

In other words, and A#######.

The “culture of corruption”, the phrase that rolled so readily off the tongues of Howard Dean and Nancy Pelosi in 2006, has been subsumed by the entire Democrat party. The term was originated in dealings concerning the Abramoff scandal, supposedly because of high connections within the Bush-43 Administration, which may or may not have provided cover for what were some clearly criminal activities regarding cash transactions in acquisitions of various gaming enterprises, but some in which there were found dead bodies along the trail.

The argument was, that some highly placed members of Congress, mostly Republicans, had accepted favors and paid travel from Jack Abramoff, the principal in the scandal, and they were tainted as well. Abramoff had ties with Republican administrations going back to the time of the Iran-Contra activity in the Reagan administration, and this was perhaps wht set off the whole “culture of corruption” meme.

The Republicans have mostly left behind that part of their legacy, but simultaneously, the Democrats, more particularly the liberal and progressive Democrats, have engaged more actively with their own version of money shuffling and misapplication of government power, by running phony “charity” organizations and subsidizing some openly anti-American and quasi-criminal operations, some to gain a kind of electoral advantage, up to and including widespread vote fraud, and some to simply suppress freedom of speech in more venues both here and abroad. They clearly do not come with clean hands into this election year.

Had the graphic artist aligned the verbiage under two points rather than under one point, it would have been very obvious that it is not intended to be a Star of David.

Americans aren’t buying that it was anti-Semitic. They’re just distracting the public.

They are dishonest. Go look at their website now with their bad cop agenda. Not a mention of the FBI director sitting in a hearing about Hillary’s emails.

He is not wrong, but he continues to fail to present his ideas in anything resembling a Presidential manner. It costs votes. He should improve this aspect of his communication style, but apparently he thinks that the NYC brashness that has been successful there will help him succeed anywhere. I don’t think it will, and it could be a very painful lesson for us all.

The thing to remember is that almost all “journalists” are just party apparatchiks. If they were employed by the DNC it would change nothing. We no longer have a free press. This is what Trump needs to communicate.
