Newt Gingrich: Media Creating a ‘Fantasy Version’ of Harris-Walz Ticket
Breitbart ^ | 08/19/2024 | Thomas D. Williams, Ph.D.

Posted on 08/19/2024 7:35:24 AM PDT by ChicagoConservative27

The establishment media are whitewashing the Harris-Walz record in an attempt to reinvent the Democratic ticket, according to former Speaker of the House, Newt Gingrich.

The media are presenting the Harris-Walz ticket as “new and moderate,” Gingrich observes, “creating a fantasy version of the candidates which bears no resemblance to reality.”

On Monday, British journalist Tim Stanley echoed these same reflections, commenting on the media-orchestrated Kamala Harris makeover in the Telegraph.

“Yesterday, she was an idiot,” Stanley notes; “today she is the second coming of Lincoln, with quirks that once made her absurd – that crazy laugh, her random use of unrelated words – rebranded as a breath of fresh air.”

Meanwhile, Tim Walz “has been crowned ‘America’s dad,’ albeit a dad who takes a weirdo position on trans rights, abortion and illegal immigration,” he adds.

America misses $1.80/gal, no inflation, unemployment, wars, or border invasions.

Well...yes, as we have been saying here repeatedly.

Marketing, messaging, etc. They’re masters at it - making extremism sound mainstream and mainstream views sound extreme.

It didn’t start with this campaign. Look at all of the states that voted for extreme pro-abortion ballot measures. Marketed with warm, cozy ads with grandmothers, clergy, etc. to portray it as the pro-family values vote - flush with cash while the conservatives napped and didn’t fund the opposition campaigns.

Why not? The public wants to be lied to.

Here’s how it works.

Nations hostile to The United States pay The Democrat Party Crime Families to tell The Democrat Party Organized Crime Syndicate to tell the propaganda arm units to make Harris look good.

The Democrats will sell you, your children and your grandchildren into slavery and slaughter to put a few bucks in their pockets.

Newt, where have you been for the past 50 years? The word “fantasy” and “media” go hand in hand.

He is informing the uninformed. BTW, what were you doing when he was Speaker of the House and balancing the nation’s budget?

I was a divorced mother of two sons working in uniform in NY State's prison system to put food on the table, while working full-time days, and going to college full-time at night. What was your ass doing?

All they have is smoke and mirrors attempting to inveigle really dumb venal people into voting for more ridiculous hopey-changie lies. Gee, I'm really on the fence who to vote for... Decisions decisions.

I for one, fully support Newt speaking his mind any time he wants to and we need more of it. He’s done way more to promote conservatism than lots of so-called conservatives I can think of. And yes, for 50 years or so now.

Insofar as the media are concerned, Camel and Schmalz are, indeed, moderates as they do not yet advocate Re-education camps or wholesale slaughter of dissidents, though some of their partisans have suggested both.

Newt caved to the state in early 2000s.

Remember him sitting with Pelosi saying they were going to solve “climate change”?

I do remember that, it was ugly but it was all for show. He didn’t really join with Pelosi like some say, that was a con.Newt was playing the hand he was dealt back then, not the hand he wished he had. Newt hasn’t changed that much, just remember in those days they were all establishment R’s and D’s even back when he got a balanced budget.

I’ll take Newt over half of the current rino R’s any day.
