Aussie News Reporter Dissects Trump's G20 fail.

The ABC’s political editor Chris Uhlmann said there was an online “vigilante mob” who loved to attack him for what they perceive as his rightwing bias.

“Quite frankly, there is now this vigilante mob that exists online, that basically congregates the minute it smells blood,” Uhlmann told Guardian Australia after he was criticised for linking the South Australian blackout to the state’s use of renewable energy.

“For whatever reason, years ago, they decided that in their estimation I was too conservative to be on the ABC. Isn’t that the bottom line, that these people think that?”

This Aussie commentator is known for his right-wing bias and I don't know why he cannot find common ground with President Trump. The ABC is not like MSNBC or CNN which blindly attack President Trump but the Aussie media is generally anti-American.

Complaints have historically been split evenly between right and left viewer who feel their team is hard done by Aunty. During the 2003 invasion of Iraq there were 147 complaints of pro-US coverage and 144 complaints of anti-US coverage. On this Wayne Errington and Narelle Miragliotta wrote in 2011, "there appears not to be any factual evidence to back the claim of left-wing bias" at the ABC.

Uhlmann was spot on. Some of the comments were good, too.

Sure looks like Trump is isolating America and abdicating US status and power in the world to China and Russia. Imo...that just seems to be the opposite of making America great again.

Imagine if trump were president during the 1930s with his love of right wing strong men .

He looks like he is reading something, while everyone else is ****ing off.
 
It's a news report from Twitter. As cold clinical an analysis as I've seen.

The guy in that video is making the same mistake the rest of the Mainstream Media is making: Looking for bold, confrontational speeches. That's not how Trump operates. When he speaks, he is sending a not-so-subtle message to his intended recipient.

For example, when he spoke of NK while in Poland, he said this:

“I have some pretty severe things we’re thinking about. Doesn’t mean we’re going to do them. I don’t draw red lines.” … “It’s a shame they’re behaving this way and they’re behaving in a very dangerous manner, and something will have to be done about it.”

Before the trip, he said this about China:

And then, to China at G20:

President Trump, at the start of his meeting Saturday in Germany with Chinese President Xi Jinping, called the Asian nation a “great trading partner” and said the increasing North Korea nuclear threat will eventually be resolved “one way or the other.”

Now...shallow thinkers may not connect all this stuff together, but you can be sure China understands what Trump is saying, and that is this:

Something WILL be done about NK. That is a fact. China is in a position to make that happen in a non-violent way...and that'll be a good thing. But if they don't, we have economic inducements to bring to bear that will make China wish they had helped. If they insist on not helping, they will suffer...especially if it comes to violence.

That guy in the video seemed to be totally unaware of the situation.

No doubt J Edgar Hoover would've had a dossier on him...but whether he could convince the people that need convincing that Trump was a lying, corrupt fraud is another story.

Yeah...he's reading his Twitter feed while everyone else are making "deals" without him.

trump looks like he's nodding off, with his usual pouty look. The only friends we have left are right-wing murdering thugs and strong men that wish us harm .

No one is making deals in that picture.

They all agreed to the Climate Change Communique...and Trump didn't. As you can see in the picture China was more than happy to fill the void.

First you say Chris Uhlmann is RIGHT WING,then go on to say Australia, the Aussie media(which he is) are Anti-American(which they are not,they just slice through the Bull Sh*t and tell it like it is...FACT) Third Term,which is it,you cannot have it both ways,just sayin...steve

Right wing doesn't mean pro-American. In Australia, pro-Americanism is a central position, it's the wings of both sides that are anti-American.

Where's pro-Trumpism? Still central?
 
It doesn't really exist in any meaningful way over here. The vast majority fall between "he's a nazi antichrist" to "he can't be all bad, we'll see how he does"

That audio of your prime minister mocking him was pretty rich.

Over here we lean toward the nazi antichrist school of thought. But we don't have the benefit of an ocean's worth of insulation. We always are aware of how we could be swamped under the American culture and economy.

I'm in favor of a Canadian invasion if it means I'll finally get some healthcare and hydroponic bud.
