The media have lost their minds after Trump's magnificent speech on Monday. It's all hands on deck, no attack is too extreme. Their main point is: DO NOT LOOK AT THAT SPEECH. It has "words that wound." Much too dangerous even to read it.
Instead of reporting what Trump said, the media give us the "gist" of it (in the sense of an unrecognizable distortion). It was awful, Hitlerian, beneath our dignity as a nation. They lie about what he said and then attack their own lies as if they're attacking Trump.
The Washington Post's headline, which got their reporters banned from Trump's press briefings, was: "Donald Trump Seems to Connect President Obama to the Orlando Shooting."
I guess OK, You're Right, didn't sound professional, so the Post pretended not to understand Trump's speech, at all. We can't makes heads or tails of it, but he seems to be saying ...
One thing Trump is not, is unclear.
Contrary to the Post's headline suggesting that Trump had posited some crazy theory about Obama secretly meeting with Omar Mateen to plot the attack -- No, this gun is much better for a mass shooting, Omar -- Trump criticized the Obama administration policies that are not keeping us safe. (It's completely unprecedented to respond to a mass murder by criticizing the policies that allowed it to happen!)
After San Bernardino and Orlando -- also, the Boston Marathon, Fort Hood, Little Rock, Chattanooga and Times Square -- quite obviously, Trump is right.
The great liar has many minions.
Straw men are used reflexively by them.
So well trained, they don’t know they’re doing it. Pavlovian.
It’s so great hearing our nominee say these things that we’ve been asking for since 9/11/01.
Have a great day, hope your week's been fine.
1. A vehicle loaded with a couple of hundred pounds of ANFO explosive goes off in any crowded area. You'd think after what happened in 1993 and 1995, they're be on the lookout for this.
2. A person "uncorks" a pressurized canister in a crowded area loaded with chlorine gas, mustard gas, or Tabun (GA) nerve gas, all of which could be made in a home still. By the time help arrives, dozens of people will be seriously ill or dead from the effects of these poison gases.
Sorry Democrats, unless you want more horrible tragedies (or worse!) like what happened in Orlando, FL last weekend, you need to stop with the political correctness and start being aggressive with monitoring potential terror suspects.
Trump sounded awesome! Like a man in control of the situation.
How can anyone compare Hilary to D. Trump and keep a straight face?
trump gave a hell of a speech
I’ve never used Facebook...I’ve never wanted to use Facebook....
Great analysis, Mouton! It really is amazing to hear Obama’s lapdogs—or as Rush has called thrm, stenographers—opine on censorship. If irony was a snake they’d all be dead.
We just have to keep Mrs. Clinton out of the WH; It’s that simple.
Listened to every word of it. It was a very good speech...late, but good.
Really wanted to go, but too busy at my work to take off.
‘invent straw women (let’s be gender-generous in our arguments)’
BOL!
As for the rest of what you said, +1 x 100! People under the scourge of PC may need more than one iteration on commonsense truth before it sinks in. Count on Trump to hammer it home, while the MSM’s straw-women get more and more absurd.
+1!
I keep shutting auto correct off, and it keeps turning itself back on. Much like the MSM.
In the old days when newspapers were trusted reporters used something called ‘quotes’... A reporter would write that so and so said such and such and it would be in quotes and we would KNOW that’s what the person said.
We trust them - and they worked to earn our respect and trust.
Today’s New York Times reporters hear, “Kick this puppy” when a Republican says, “I love this country”. New York Times reporters don’t realize Americans in flyover have computers and we KNOW when they are lying.
When’s the next round of lay offs at the New York Times anyhow? (Not that there’s a connection between NOT being trustworthy and subscription rates.../s) Oh, and enjoy whatever ‘prizes’ you win New York Times... puts food on the table and a roof over your head, right? /s.
I am not sure which bathroom Coulter uses, but I don’t really care. She is right. I was so.... Oh my gosh, what verb is appropriate? .... Glad? To watch Trump’s speech and feel his passion, and hear him in FULL SUPPORT of the gay community and stress that his opponents (both Hill and Obama) are clearly NOT helping the gay community, in fact, helped cause these deaths, by their actions. To hear him place blame exactly where it is due, on both the Islamic terror monsters AND the PC that allows them access to our innocent citizens. And to hear his plans to actually prevent these attacks.
The media and the oligarchy had NOTHING to attack in that speech. They had to parse through some powerful messages to find his ad libbing few throwaway words “ask the gays,” to mock. Now they are literally lying about his speech and fighting their own made up bogeymen.
attacking the literal text and actual substance of the speech. Which shows how on-point it is. They mischaracterize, lie, invent straw women (let’s be gender-generous in our arguments), and rage on about things that were not actually in the speech.
They use mocking (thanks, Alinsky) in social media: one throwaway moment was Trump saying “ask the gays.” Sounds a titch pejorative, so they made a mocking hashtag of it. And if you read the Twitter feed of that hashtag, you only come away with how hateful “the gays” are toward straights.
Ann cutting through the PC BS again.
I said in 2000 that this country was irreparably split and that there will be a boiling point.
It was too early a prediction, but now that the president and MSM are not even hiding their TREASON, i think it’s a bit closer.
Actually, “Saud” very rightly belongs next to Hillary, after all the House of Saud has bought her silence with massive campaign contributions!
The liberal news media create the false reality that we live in. You are right the news media turned an Islamic attacking for Islam into a commercial for banning guns and against Christianity .The media did turn a Muslim into a white American Christian . the media are our enemy and they create the matrix( the false reality we live in ) to further socialism and Islam.
