Ripping the "new low" for the media in the coverage of his administration, President Donald Trump ripped "crooked journalism" for being "an evil propaganda machine for the Democrat Party."

President Trump tweeted:

"The Failing New York Times, in one of the most devastating portrayals of bad journalism in history, got caught by a leaker that they are shifting from their Phony Russian Collusion Narrative (the Mueller Report & his testimony were a total disaster), to a Racism Witch Hunt.....

President Trump continued:

".....'Journalism' has reached a new low in the history of our Country. It is nothing more than an evil propaganda machine for the Democrat Party. The reporting is so false, biased and evil that it has now become a very sick joke...But the public is aware! #CROOKEDJOURNALISM

President Trump concluded:

"With all that this Administration has accomplished, think what my Poll Numbers would be if we had an honest Media, which we do not!"

The tweets are likely referencing a Slate report of The New York Times executive editor Dan Baquet's address to staff during a town hall meeting:

"This is a really hard story, newsrooms haven't confronted one like this since the 1960s. It got trickier after [inaudible] . . . went from being a story about whether the Trump campaign had colluded with Russia and obstruction of justice to being a more head-on story about the president's character," Slate's transcription of reported Baquet town hall audio read. "We built our newsroom to cover one story, and we did it truly well. Now we have to regroup, and shift resources and emphasis to take on a different story.

The presstitutes try to model themselves after Goebbels, but are so obvious and ham-fisted with it all, they come off looking more like Bozo.

I can picture only one way Trump can get me to stay home on Election Day: Continue to push, or actually sign, gun control.

“1. Pin drop silence from Barr...no arrests, no indictments.”
***********************************************************

First “real” clue as to what we were getting with Bill Barr: Think back to when Trump was getting ready to put John Ratcliffe’s name up for nomination for one of the jobs with real potential to root out the bad guys.

Now, do you recall Bill Barr’s name drawing ‘John Ratcliffe” type reaction? Not even close. Reason why? The swamp knows who to really fear. Apparently Ratcliffe was feared. Why not Bill Barr? Hmmm?

The President is being Captain Obvious

None of the rest of the Mockingbird State Media was talking about the Slate story on the blatant NYT's admission to propaganda. Because the President still has a bully pulpit, they now have to either say he's lying, which is one way to get the news out, or admit that it's true.

Americans are becoming smart enough to read between the lines, much as the soviets during pravda's in-glory days.

So then here’s the $64,000 question, with what is known on how the media cheated in the last debate, and how they have a 98% negative reporting opinion of him, will he participate in the debates that will be set up to do nothing but humiliate him?
