The mainstream media has long been a cheerleader for the Democrats. Its coverage of Donald Trump is overwhelmingly negative, while its coverage of Kamala Harris is so positive and glowing that it could blind you. The media will also give extensive coverage to any poll that shows Harris ahead and dismiss or even ignore polls that look good for Trump. However, in the past week or so, there's been an attitude change as polls have shifted to Trump.
Last week, Mika Brzezinski, the co-host of “Morning Joe,” admitted that “There’s this fear that Donald Trump is poised for victory" because nothing Harris has done in recent weeks has been able to move the needle in her direction.
“I think it's fair for Democrats to be incredibly depressed. I think it's fair for them to be discouraged. I think it's fair for them to explore whether Kamala Harris should be doing more. Feel free to do that. These things are all legitimate,” Brzezinski continued. “I don't know what more she can do, especially given what happened, though, in 2016. Because that was a trauma for anybody who loves this country and a trauma that didn't end that day.”
She's right. Polls are showing that this is a toss-up race, and if the polls are off like they were in 2020 or 2016, the election looks really good for Trump. But the situation may be even tougher for Kamala because the mainstream media is now even talking about a potential landslide victory for Trump.

Poor Mika....
Yeah, let’s see just how far they go on 11/6.
“I think it’s fair for Democrats to be incredibly depressed. I think it’s fair for them to be discouraged.”
Well, they DID have their chance to nominate Tulsi Gabbard (not perfect but the best and manliest of the bunch) back in 2000. That ship has sailed, though.
A few of us have been saying this for months. More proof the media and these so-called political pundits are painfully slow to connect the dots.
A trauma what happened in 2016?
There are far too many states locked for the DEMs. CA, NY, CO, MN, NM, WA, OR, HI, and nearly all of the northeast. Only ones I am not 100% certain of are VA and NV.
According to Harris’ shickenchit comedy campaign ads, the only thing she has left to save her ass are treasonous RINOS pigs who got kicked out of the Republican Party. No telling how much of her billion dollars Harris had to pay each one of them for their “endorsement” ads.
Here is my take on the “liberal media”. They want to make sure Kamala wins, and this rhetoric that a Trump landslide is to motivate the fence sitters.
I get concerned the MSM’s are setting us up. Giving hope to Republicans to disappoint.
I just heard the news here on 710 AM in NY and according to polls “most people trust Kamala to handle the economy and she’s ahead three points nationally.”
So there it is.
OK, but let’s not be overconfident. Or assume there will be a fair election.
Don’t trust them. They are liars to the core.
They know they’ll have a hard time ‘splainin Jie Biden’s 81 m votes in 2020 when Harris comes in 15 m below that.
All that's missing is "Red Wave" to punctuate the coming setup.
My take is that this is part of a demoralization campaign to make us depressed and give up completely after they successfully cheat and install this mentally challenged sociopath.
She’s a moron
“...OK, but let’s not be overconfident. Or assume there will be a fair election...”
Indeed. Just like that old adage about not counting one’s chickens until they’re hatched.
Hubris is at the heart of nearly every Greek tragedy, after all.
A test will be if Zero and Clinton kinda slink off into the shadows because they know........................
Its all well and good - but the GOP and Trump had better be prepared for
1) pitched legal warfare after election day in swing states. Outright fraud from people like Gretchen Whitmer, Tony Evers and their woke cronies is a certainty.
2) The GOP had better be prepared to neutralize America’s KGB - the Dept of Justice, and their Fed.gov lawfare. This is an existential battle for them.
I agree that because Kamala is likely to be below 81 million votes. I believe the media will definitely panic if Kamala gets below 74 million votes which gives Trump more ammo to say the 2020 election was “rigged.” I’m fairly confident that Kamala will get more than 66 million votes.
