Fifty-eight percent of likely voters agree that media outlets are the enemy of the people, according to a new Rasmussen Reports poll.

Thirty-six percent disagree.

Here is how the poll results break down:

•76% of Republicans agree with the "enemy of the people" phrase in describing the media.
•37% of Democrats agree with the phrase.
•61% of independents agree with the phrase.
•83% of voters believe "fake news" is a serious problem in the media, compared to 14% who disagree.
•92% of Republicans believe "fake news" is a serious problem, compared to 74% of Democrats. 82% of independent believe it to be a serious problem.
•37% say they trust the political news they’re getting, compared to 43% who don’t trust it. 20% are not sure.
•54% believe that most reporters who write or talk about President Joe Biden are attempting to help him pass his agenda.

Rasmussen noted that in the wake of the 2019 Mueller Report, then-President Donald Trump had tweeted: "Fake News is truly the ENEMY OF THE PEOPLE."

The poll, conducted July 7-8, surveyed 1,000 likely voters.

Donald Trump is The Awakening. The Awakening the Deep State Gov’t Authoritarians Fear. They HATE this Man with a White Hot Hate for this.
The Tea Party movement was the beginning. They feared the Grass Roots movement but, they eventually succeeded in squashing that movement because while Grass Roots it was disorganized and lacked focus.
Years later, Donald Trump became the Focus that the movement needed. He stood up at the tip of the spear, like King David.
Donald Trump’s statement that “it’s not me they are after, it’s YOU I’m just in the way”, is the truest and most profound statement in recent America’s history in many many decades.

for several election cycles, we’ve seen very similar polls showing the majority don’t trust the media, yet we ended up with two-term of 0bama because of the media. Now we have Biden because of the media. So, unless I start to see voting that ignores the media, I won’t pay attention to these polls.

“ 83% of voters believe “fake news” is a serious problem in the media, compared to 14% who disagree.”

They are getting there. I’m one of the 58%. They have manipulated and deceived people. They have used their position to pit us against each other and are destroying society and our country. Any professional who uses their position to manipulate and hurt others are despicable. It’s like pastors or teachers who molest children. The media is destroying lives too.

The media is the enemy of the people. Its goal is to take the people’s money, time and mind to the fullest extent possible and to have people live in a world of fantasy, fiction and unreality, divorced from actual lives and needs.

That means 42% are completely indoctrinated and do not recognize the Ministry of Propaganda for what it is.

Pelosi’s husband just bought 5.3 million dollars worth of shares in Alphabet, the parent company of Google.

But I’m sure the news will be fair.

The media is destroying lives too.

The media's lies about Hydroxychloroquine efficacy killed about 250,000 Americans.

Rachel Maddow and Neil Cavuto are responsible for about 100,000.
