But what about the media??? Hmmmm? I just KNOW the View is going to ruin everything! God, I hate that a show for menopause moms is rotting the country!!!

If only there was a term for this retarded form of arguing....

Lying politicians don't bother me that much. I expect it of them. Joe Biden has always been a mental lightweight who made up for his dimwittedness with his ability to lie unapologetically. No malarky, man. If he had an average IQ he would have parlayed his 50 years in DC a lot more dinero. Definition of useful idiot. Dems wanted a puppet, most of you shills prefer a puppet. It's why Trump drives so much TDS - how dare he defy convention.

Do you even know what you’re saying? Just a collection of schizo thoughts strung together.

I’m not arguing shit, I am laughing at the fact that when something “bad” happens it’s because the big bad media did it. As if Jake Tapper and Whoopi Goldberg should be tried for treason lmao.

Everybody rolls their eyes at what Whoppi says. It's been that way since forever. The sad part is that the real media (including Jake Tapper) is approaching that same level of eye rolling. Yes, the big bad media. You just laugh it off. SMH

The media is why Joe Biden won in 2020. The media is why Joe Biden ran in 2024 until he was basically brain dead and had to drop out because the media couldn’t cover for him… so in turn the media is a big reason Trump won in 2024. So yes, what about the media…

I would ask you to look back through these threads at the number of posts RE: The View. I think a lot of people have strong opinions on them.

Of course I laugh it off. "The Media" has always protected the ruling class. I'm supposed to feign outrage that *this* is a bridge too far? Oh no! Now I can't watch GW hanging out with Ellen! What about his really sweet paintings?!! Nah, I'm good.

Because people on these threads get all hot and bothered by them.

The media is why Trump won in 2016. More people get their media from digital media than they do from sitting down and watching Jake Tapper. If you want to crucify Jake Tapper go nuts. But to act like the media, who no one here relied on to form their opinions and who is referred to as "fake news" by the President in 2016 and on, is this big evil entity because they weren't as full throated into the same ideas that Dan Bonginio and GummyBear et al were sharing - is laughable.

I think my point is the media controlled the narrative and has always to a degree but not the degree of blatant duck and cover from 2020 starting with the “fake” Hunter Laptop cover stories through 2024 covering Biden and his top notch mental acuity. Even going further back with Russia/Steele Dosier years long nothing burger.

I think it’s laughable people pretend to not listen to or give credence to a Jake Tapper or Whoopie and the other side of Bongino/GunnyBear. Their ratings are sky high and to pretend that we aren’t that low but low enough to argue politics anonymously on a football message board is comedy. People love stroking and validating their opinions. That’s why this board exists, that’s why Whoopie has ratings.

But that's ignoring that MSM has been instrumental in helping Trump become president and retain popularity. Forcing everyone to just accept insane things he said/says as rational, and then once the corporate class who used him for ratings wants to have their centrist candidate take the spot light we're supposed to then be upset at them? Buddy, I've been done with them for years.

The constant pity party that people have because "the Media" isn't carrying the water any more than they possibly can for Conservatives is so pathetic. If "the Media" ever had any sort of credibility it would refer to GW as a war criminal. But, yeah "the Media" is horrible because they didn't hate Biden as much as MAGA did. Pardon me for laughing at that.

Probably just depends on who’s side your on but from my lens the media is exactly what you say and I think we can agree. I think any independent thinker can see the media for what it is and their slant but slant is one thing. In my opinion, covering up and lying about the laptop from hell (which would have lost Biden 2020) and lying about Biden being present mentally is not just slant. Someone was pulling the strings in the White House, I would think as someone that cares about American politics you would care who that was and why that was… but nobody cares.

Sure, and we can say "the Media" carried out numerous hit jobs on "the Left". But that doesn't sell well here and no one wants to hear that.

I care as far as provable facts come out with legal implications. I think making this the issue that breaks peoples trust with the media is incredible and just goes to show how good they have it that *this* is the point that makes them distrust the media. Not actual global events or anything with tangible significance, but that Jake Tapper and CNN weren't calling Joe Biden a vegetable enough to appease MAGA. What happens then, does everyone get to cry "OH ITS BDS! BDS! BDS!" because they don't like the criticism from "the Media" or does that only go one way?

Saying it doesn't make it true. I'm all ears for your three best cases of NBC/CNN/ABC/CBS coordinated hit jobs on "the left".

In my opinion there are real world implications. Hilary got fried for her email server and probably a big reason she lost. She won’t ever go to jail because of who she is but she lost, Biden would have lost if the story became the laptop but the story was how Russia and Trump made up a laptop… add the Covid hysteria and Trump loses to a coconut. The media is responsible for Trump winning in a landslide because they got caught dragging out a dead body. We could go back on forth on “hit jobs”, but it goes back to which lens you are looking though.

The issue for me is people are dumb and real world decisions are being made on the backs of dumb people giving viewership to Whoopie, Tapper and even Bongino and a Tucker Carlson.

Yes people are generally stupid and uninformed. The dominant form of "News" is consumed through digital media. You have the Conservative equivalents to Jake Tapper actually running the country. The teeth gnashing at Jake Tapper is going to lead to what? The people who already don't like him not liking him more?

I would be willing to give even an ounce of credibility to any of the "honesty in media" defenders if they actually cared about the type of shit that gets posted on here. You have a confused person who regularly is posting provably false AI tweets constantly without any sort of comment, but everyone is supposed to scream about terrible MSM is because MSM is doing what MSM has always done.

Funny, these 4 years under Trump just flew by.
Tell us how your life has been dramatically and directly altered by Trump in these last four months.
Stocks are down. Costs are up. Tariffs haven’t even kicked in yet. Dollar is down. Purchasing is slowing on the industry I’m in. Luckily hasn’t hit us because we have one large insulated client but if we were still relying on small businesses it would.

All worse than the economy Trump took over. Thank god he got that gay hairdresser sent to El Salvador, because that has fuck all to do with my life.

Funny, none of that has really trickled down here to southern Ohio, prices are all pretty much the same, although I have noticed gas prices have been lower some months but it's been up and down.

You should buy now then, it's a good time. What goes up must come down, and what goes down must come up. Such is the way of the market.

Referencing this chart, it wasn't that great under Biden until it peaked in December. It went up a little more under Trump until he announced tariffs. Yet, even though it dipped, according to this chart it has rebounded to where it's better than most of 2024 under Biden.

Dude the stock market has reached a record high under every single US President. All of them. Look it up.

The trick is not to fuck it up by announcing asinine tarrifs.

"Every single US President" since Ronald Regan.

Hoover reached a record high of 381.17 in 1929
Roosevelt got as high as 194.40
Truman got as high as 293.79
Eisenhower finally passed the previous record high of Hoover at some point in his Presidency.

Ford and Carter never surpassed Nixon's record high either.

Now now now which political party has the higher growth rate of the markets, and which party has overseen the higher growth rate of GDP!

You can't be a serious person voting for the GOP for "economics".
