Is the MSM inverse logic an intentional deception or is this how the left really thinks?

I recently saw a clip of Rachael Maddow saying “If Donald Trump becomes president again he just might start putting his political opponents in prison.”

There was this liberal talking head show yesterday; one of the commentators wanted to use an example of how Trump skirted the rule of law, and said, “Trump declared a fake national emergency to build a wall congress didn’t want…”. Think about how right Trump was

The author is correct about so many things….

However, he is wrong about the Gaslight. They turned one off only to have the government and mainstream media turn on one hundred more. The gaslighting of the American people, to divide us, while the ‘deep state’ and the democrats rob the treasury, will continue.

“Are you going to believe a four-star Marine general and his own chief of staff, John Kelly, who told us that’s exactly what Trump said, or a disgraced, defeated president, liar like Trump?

“It’s about the fact that — think about this — 40 of his 44 top advisors in his administration refuse to endorse him — 40 out of 44, including his vice president. And they refuse to support him this time. It tells you a hell of a lot about the man they worked for.”

“And Donald Trump is motivated by revenge and retribution. Well, revenge and retribution never built a damn thing. But what built America is hope, optimism, a possibility. (Applause.) That’s what’s always built America, and that’s what we’re going to continue to do: build America today.

“The choice in this election is simple as this: Donald Trump will destroy democracy. That’s not hyperbole. He’ll de- — I will defend it.

“He’ll never — I’ve never been more optimistic about America’s future.”

Should have listened to Washington’s comments about political parties.

Gaslight?...What gaslight? I’m not feeling it. Not even a fake photon’s worth.

They haven’t turned it off.

This is a modified limited hangout.

That reminds me of Clinton’s first term - when they declared that there was a “healthcare crisis”…

There was no such thing. It was a blatant excuse for politicians to get their hands on BIG $$$ medical industry.

We USED to have the finest in the entire world until then… Now, I don’t trust it as far as I can throw it. I’ll die at home, in my own bed, thank you - before I’d ever trust an American hospital again.

EVERY time our government and media cries - “CRISIS!!”, it’s a lie and they’re out to take over ANOTHER part of our lives. This is all our government does any more..

Olivia Nuzzi, a reporter, knew things were bad. She documented things were bad. Her personal experience was that things were bad.

Yet she didn’t report them.

Biden is diseased. He cannot help it.

The media is complicit in allowing him to continue. They, and his family, are to blame for this mess.

And yet the democRATs want to elect Joe again. He is just a puppet and they don’t care.

Kunstler, Denninger, and ‘Sundance’ are ALWAYS a ‘must read’...

“and his overt masculinity”

This is the REAL PROBLEM women have with Trump, and Putin for that matter.

“I recently saw a clip of Rachael Maddow saying “If Donald Trump becomes president again he just might start putting his political opponents in prison.””

How does he do that? Does he do no-knock raids? If so, how many can he do in one day - it does get tiring. Oh, he’ll have the police do it - nice try, but why would they do it, a phone call, nope, gotta get a warrant. Won’t be so easy for Trump to lock up his opponents - I guess he’ll be out of luck, once again. By the way, how many did he lock up in his first 4 years?
