Why the Media Hate Trump
AIM ^ | July 13, 2015 | Cliff Kincaid

Posted on 07/14/2015 6:09:05 AM PDT by detective

Before Donald Trump ran for president, few people had heard of the Stolen Lives Quilt [1] made in remembrance of Americans killed by illegal aliens. But on Friday, July 10, families of the victims appeared with Trump to talk about the illegal alien crime wave in America and to criticize the news media for not reporting accurately and completely about what is happening in America.

The entire news conference [2] has now been posted online, providing information about the problem that has been denied to this American people for many years.

Operating under the banner statement, “All crimes committed by illegal aliens were preventable,” the National Campaign to Remember Victims Killed by Illegal Aliens notes that “every state is a ‘border state,’” because the illegals have penetrated the United States as a whole. They argue that “Pro-amnesty special interests have spent millions on spreading the lie that the legalization of undocumented aliens is somehow good for America and American families.”

Because he’s not the slightest bit cowed by their bullsh*t, for a start.

I would submit that the media loves trump. every time he opens his mouth, a screamer headline comes out of it.

I’m sure he’s considered to be driving web clicks, boosting TV ratings, and selling newspapers. the media likes that.

Because Trump is a threat to their masters, as well as anathema to most of them ideologically. I concur with Sundance's take on Trump's candidacy over at The Conservative Treehouse.

She warned in 2013 that the so-called “Gang of Eight” Senate immigration plan was an “extremely dangerous bill” whose authors “worked hand-in-hand with rich businessmen and amnesty advocates while never once considering the rights of the victims of illegal alien violence.”

The so-called “Gang of Eight” consisted of:

Marco Rubio (R-FL)
John McCain (R-AZ)
Lindsey Graham (R-SC)
Jeff Flake (R-AZ)
Chuck Schumer (D-NY)
Robert Menendez (D-NJ)
Michael Bennet (D-CO)
Richard Durbin (D-IL)
All of the Republicans in the “Gang of Eight”—Rubio, McCain, Graham, and Flake—have been critical of Trump’s remarks that some illegal aliens entering the United States are rapists and criminals. The media companies NBC Universal and Univision have severed their business ties with Trump because of his criticism of criminal aliens coming from Mexico.

The media is probably responsible for more divisiveness in America than most left-wing politicians. Pitting two or more sides against each other daily. Like holding two random cats against each other, face-to-face...chances are, they’re gonna fight.

Trump controls his press conferences, and calls out any reporter who is trying to ambush him with “got’chas”. All of them salivate at the thought of capturing that one line, or gesture that could “bring down the Trump”, but so far, they have nothing.

I’m not 100% sure about Trump, yet, buts entertaining as hell to watch him work, so far. I like the way he’s shaking the field, the press, and the GOPe.

We’ve still got a long way until the elections, and someone needs to focus more on lame duck Obama in the death throes of his administration.

The fifth-column leftist media whores and buttboys would like to have Trump run as a third-party candidate. That would give them cheap propaganda headlines and siphon off the votes for the GOP nominee, especially if it’s Ted Cruz.

Notice the gang of eight “worked with businessmen” More than likely Trump was approached by them. He may have even gone along with them not knowing the true purpose of the bill and its consequences

Please, is there really a single true American anywhere that gives a $hit what the old media thinks or says about our candidates at this point?

I mean REALLY? The old media is sooooooooooooooo irrelevant to what is beat for America, and the American people, why in the hell elevate them by reading and posting anything about them!

The Donald exposes, either directly or indirectly, the lies and corruption the media and the inside the Beltway crowd have gotten away with for decades.

The alarming crime statistics are well documented, and this time the media and Fed/State gov’t can’t simply ignore it, change the subject, or shout it down like they’ve done with everything else they feel uncomfortable with.

PUMP UP THE VOLUME DONALD!

His narrative does not fit their agenda.

A pot smoking stealing thug gets shot reaching for a cops gun... they run the story 24/7 nonstop painting the cop as a killer and the THUG as a precious child. This fits their agenda.

A pretty white girl get killed in cold blood by a multiple felon ILLEGAL invader and they bury the news... focusing on an old flag. This does not fit their agenda.

They have an agenda. Anyone that can’t see that is blind.

What a hoot! I said something similar to my wife last night. I started thinking, after hearing that The Donald accounted for something like 55% of all social media entries last week, that he is the perfect Democrat plant. After all, wasn’t he a significant donor to the Clinton Foundation? The press love his outrageous showmanship, and he will be the cudgel they use to discredit Republicans. Then, when he fails to win the Republican nomination, we’ll know for sure if he runs on a third party ticket. Split the Republican vote (a la Perot) and hand the victory to Hillary.

San Francisco murder victim Kathryn Steinle’s family is calling for harsher punishment for illegal immigrants who re-enter America.

Cali lib/zits agree.....but do not ever, ever want to be "mean" to an illegal felon.

The lib/zit solution? They are putting 2 points on drug lord El Chapo's Cali driver's license and the good news is the lib/zits still "feel good' about themselves.

=============================================

REFERENCE El Chapo was given a California driver’s license in 1988, according to the DEA.... under the name of “Max Aragon”. El Chapo was wanted in the United States at the time “Max Aragon” got the Cali driver’s license.

Fortunately for El Chapo, illegal immigrants can now get driver’s licenses legally in the state of California under a new law that went into effect in January under Democratic Gov. Jerry Brown. In the first three days of Democrat Brown's new law, more than 46,000 illegals applied, prompting “Black Friday”-type lines and wait times outside DMV offices.

Imagine if he wins the nomination and the establishment has to unify with the unwashed?

You may be interested to know that the GOPe anointed one is, and always has been, Jeb. They will eventually silence all of them, including Ted Cruz.

Rove and the girls still make the rules, and the rules are their boy always wins. At any cost.

I’ve seen at least one article calling Cruz an ‘oddball’ to the Republican Party, so the short knives are coming out for TC already.

Trump and Cruz should both go independent and join forces. If they do that, they will win. If they remain Republican, not only will they not get the nomination, Jeb will.

I’ve yet to have anyone supply evidence that it’s anything other than business as usual in the Republican Party.

Most likely explanation of this event. Trump has commented publicly that he is pro amnesty, anti gun, pro Clinton, pro Obama, pro abortion. I am sure there other things. He looks just to the left of Hitlery to me.
