Trump is absolute proof that the media has been put in its place and will never be the same. The media can no longer take down a single person. The media has no power. The media will have no power until they absolutely sincerely apologize for their propaganda, and then report the news without bias and treating opinion as fact.
Trump could kick them out, refuse to hold pressers, and not answer any questions or deal with the media at all. He would get away with it all. The media has ZERO POWER anymore. None. They just haven’t realized it. I think very few have realized just how significant a paradigm shift has occurred worldwide. We have without a doubt in my mind witnessed the complete and utter destruction of main stream media.
You know, I agree. And it was very close. It almost went in the other direction, and make no mistake: if the Establishment and Media (but I repeat myself) had been successful in single-handedly dragging Hillary across the finish line (as they were desperately trying to do) they would have been totally ascendant, literally reeling with power. They would have been so full of themselves. Their power, in their own minds and also based on the evidence (the election result) would have felt vindicated. They would have been confirmed as masters of "manufacturing consent" and acting as a State Propaganda apparatus for the establishment Regime.
That is why what just happened is truly a Revolution (and hopefully actually a counter-revolution wherein we return to the Constitutional framework from which we have departed so profoundly.
The next 4-8 years are going to be extremely important, and there will be an ongoing debate which we who elected Donald Trump must be prepared to win and persuade people on the merits.
No shortcuts will be allowed. If this segment of the People wants to continue to have a strong voice in government, everyone is going to have to keep their noses clean.
Inasmuch as we fail to do that, we will furnish the Enemy with ammunition that they will ultimately use to erode the progress that President Trump is about to make...
