Imagine that a scientist wanted to conduct an experiment to see if its true that blind hatred of President Trump has led Democrats and their media handmaidens to go round the bend and off the cliff.
Such a scientist would inject a damning and false media report about Trump into the political bloodstream, then observe the reactions. It wouldnt take long.
The Gotcha! glee, the declarations of Trumps certain impeachment for suborning perjury, reckless references to Richard Nixon, the breathless anticipation of resignation and disgrace, perhaps prison these and other overheated reactions quickly clogged the airwaves and Internet, growing ever more bold as the day wore on and no compelling rebuttal appeared.
Then, suddenly, the scientist pulled the plug on the experiment. He had seen enough to prove the thesis: Much of America, many of its leaders and some of its most prominent institutions are indeed gripped with madness.
Hatred for the president has corrupted their judgments and blinded them to duty and decency. Having succumbed to prejudice and rage, they have proven themselves unworthy of public trust.
Case closed.
Sometimes, life is stranger than fiction. Friday was such a day in America. It was a shameful spectacle.

The so-called “news” media is still sore about losing the 2016 election.
90 percent of the American news media is corrupt. Of that, 70 percent of their corporate hierarchy should be heavily fined and given stiff prison sentences - as in 10 to 20 years w/o parole. Their assets should be confiscated and then liquidated to cover damages. The remaining 30 percent of these individuals are incorrigible, and represent an existential threat to this republic. They should be put down like rabid dogs - stood against a wall and shot.
The Monsters on Maple Street.
I repeat, 95% of so called Journalists are self admitted Democrats, Liberals, Progressives and / or Socialists.
Of the remaining 5%, four out of five are Liars.
Once again the “Progressives” circle the wagons. This has NOT been disproven to them. Fake (lacking in any evidence, not based in Reality) but accurate.
For me, it’s not a matter of their party affiliation, or their personal beliefs. It’s about a total lack of integrity. One can be a damn communist, and still have enough integrity to report facts - and only the facts.
These jackasses of the MSM do not care about facts, nor care whether they place them in proper context. They willfully and repeatedly lie by omission and commission.
The American media has destroyed the idea of a “free press,” by abusing that liberty to the point of making it an enemy of freedom.
The American media have succeeded in undermining the First Amendment. They have so damaged Freedom of the Press, that it can no longer be considered valid.
Never again will Americans trust the press to be an objective and reliable source of information. The damage these hacks have inflicted is truly irreparable. The tragedy is that not one of them realizes what they have done.
The dishonest media says that they did not report that Trump did something illegal. They reported that someone SAID that Trump did something illegal. They stand by their technically accurate reporting. This allows them to discuss it for days, fooling all but the most astute listeners/readers (Freepers). Their propaganda certainly contributed to losing the House.
want to solve the media problem close down the Columbia school of journalism and black list there professors. They are the reason the media is in such a bad state. Look at where most of the management in broadcast and in print graduated and you will see a Columbia school of broadcasting degree. Look at the text books used in most universities and you will find that the team that wrote the text book came out of that school of journalism. also rewrite Liable law to allow the admission of other instances of lieing to show patterns of behavior on anyone who declares they are a professional journalist rather then a citizen journalist

And THAT is why they hate President Trump. Had been their beloved McCain, then HE would be the most awful person in the world.
This has nothing to do with Trump, the man. It has to do with his daring to take something that the left thought BELONGED TO THEM. And they still do.
America needs to arrest and charge a whole lot of DC democrats with sedition and treason.
“sore” isn’t the half of it.
They shape and direct the idiots of this land.
President Trump handed their ass to them.
Their propaganda certainly contributed to losing the House.............
I think the House loss was due to vote fraud much more than propaganda and fake news from the press.
Oh, yeah. "Aw shucks, we'll get him next time" appears to be the most common public reaction. That, and silence. This isn't a particularly introspective crowd we're dealing with here, it's a shameless one.
All this in the face of seven Congressmen and Congresswomen making a grand world tour with no fewer than 93 staff and family members during a government shutdown that they imposed, all on the taxpayers' dime. Which story has also produced silence in the MSM, but not on the real people's forum, the Internet. No wonder they want to shut us down.
The fault lies with the news owners from third party corporate giants to immediate news dept heads
They are allowing poorly qualified bomb throwers to run wild on TV as they all compete for the anti Trump audience
Woodward and Bernstein killed real journalism.
Excellent piece...
This has nothing to do with Trump, the man. It has to do with his daring to take something that the left thought BELONGED TO THEM. And they still do.
________________
Perhaps in the beginning. But for 2 years he has run rings around them, accomplished what was deemed to be impossible (jobs/NoKo/real tax cuts/fewer regs/tariffs/shut down), and worse than that, he has pointedly laughed at and called them out personally, one by one, to the glee and delight of his supporters.
So, hatred has transferred to Donald Trump, the individual, all of his living kin and all of his supporters. In so doing, they have been forced to denigrate the United States of America and all its institutions. They have repeatedly gone on record trying to outdo each other in venom and hatred. Each Trump victory lap has solidified their embarrassment and humiliation.
It is now very publicly personal. The rage is morphing away from the chimp troop displays and going to hard, cold anger on both sides.
I believe Trump is keeping declassification as a hole card against the not-too-distant day when there is a concerted assassination attempt ala JFK. By then, if he survives and the information is released, there will be all hell to pay by the entire communist left.
And too many Americans are too effing stupid and dishonest to admit that their news source is biased.
