I've been watching these two. I think they have a nice assessment of not only the bias of CNN and MSNBC but how that bias actually corrupts and, in this case, cost lives. It's also a compelling counterpoint to all those blaming Trump for coronavirus deaths.

In this case, a Democratic's governors own actions can be shown to have directly contributed to the worst outbreak in the nation.

 
I like Krystal! :cool:
 
Inslee the snake did an outstanding job in Washington state. Leaders who listened to their health experts, like Inslee did a good job. Leaders who didn't, like Trump and Cuomo, did bad jobs.

I strongly caution against getting one's news from cable television.

Inslee' did and still is doing a horrible job.
 
The left wing controlled media is in overdrive this week. It seems like every article is anti Trump and pro BLM propaganda piece.

It makes me feel uncomfortable. The media should have some semblance of fairness. Instead they straight up work for the Democratic Party.

It's going to get much worse for them soon enough. Because Trump is going to start campaigning and holding more rallies.

So they'll be stuck saying that he should be social distancing and helping to protect the lives of others. While lauding the protest for being justified.

I agree, I would like to challenge the notion that because Cuomo and other Dem leaders ****ed up doesn't absolve Trump of most of the blame though. He STILL IS the president, after all.

Who does Fox and OAN work for then? I say say it's pretty balanced.

He'll only hold rallies in red states he already owns. Only benefit to Trump is feeding his own narcissistic ego.

Seeing as he didn't do that before. I doubt that he'll do as such this time around either.

People are going to want a leader who at least appears to have their best interest in mind and many of the democrat strongholds are now basically fruit, ripe for the picking.

Rising is a great show that often takes up important stories that American MSN can't or won't; this is definitely one of them. The wholly unmerited fawning and worship that Cuomo routinely gets, particularly from CNN, is both absurd and sickening given his egregious missteps.

It is exactly the opposite of what you describe. All the polls are pointing to a Trump loss. I know everyone say's screw the polls, they aren't correct. But what else do we have?

Imagine this. Paramount networks has canceled the series COPS. 33 years running with a new season scheduled to start this Monday canceled. No plans to bring it back right now.

That may not sound like a big deal, but it's a barometer of what's going on in America right now. This Trump 'Law and Order' crap is not going over well with the vast majority of Americans.

Everyone has an opinion. You know what they say about that.
 
Well it just so happens that their opinion (and mine) is in this case exceedingly well supported.

The same exact thing can be said about Trump and Fox News. So there you go. Here I'll correct the sentence for you.

You do realize that it was "the polls" that we had in 2016, that lead to Trump winning, right?

Bedsides, we know that the polls can't be entirely correct here. There's always been a large disconnect from the voters giving him support on the polls and the higher numbers he shows in favorability, or even job approval. It shows that he has plenty of voters who're willing to support him, without voicing it. It's been called his hidden voter base for a reason.

So when people are losing their homes to violent riots, lootings, arson and all manner of lawlessness. Do you really think the people are going to vote for those that not only allowed it to happen, but supported it, or do you think they're going to vote for the man that called for law to be restored and the riots to stop?

Yes it is; I don't disagree. Unqualified and unmerited fawning and worship are repulsive no matter who does it, whether CNN or Fox, and they both are guilty of as much.

The hidden Trump voters are liars. I agree he has a small amount of hidden voters. But the difference between Trump and HRC is night and day between the difference of Trump and Biden. As I said before, the current polling is all we have to go by. Anything that comes from Trumps internal polling is not believable. Nothing that comes from Trump is believable.

The lies are one of his biggest problems. No sane person wants a leader that doesn't tell the truth.

Good, now I have just as much claim as you do. To say that any other polling that you can supply, simply isn't believable.

The last few years of nearly non-stop lies about the man and his supporters. Seems to back up my assumption.

You do realize that Biden's had his own issues with telling the truth, not to mention his recent hiccups with the populace. This includes his whole "then you aren't black" debacle.

Right now, I'm not talking about Biden and Trump. I'm talking about what's happening in the US today. You have people burning their cities to the ground, killing their own and the democrats are nowhere to be seen when it comes to stopping it. Yet they're willingly pandering to these same people. Literally getting down on their knees to show that they are going to do what they're told, so long as it comes from the protestors.

When the people go to vote in November, they're going to hear two things.
Trump's voice telling them that they should have law and order, so that everyone can live their lives and return to a form of normalcy, or the voice of nearly every Democrat politician, telling them to get down on their knees and hold their tongue.

Normal people in these cities with businesses, are doing much the same. Saying "Black Lives Matter", but really what they're saying is "Please Don't Hurt Me & Please Don't Burn Down My Store".

When they go to vote. They will not have that eye on them, looking over their shoulder and they will know that they can vote republican and pray that this vote makes the crazy people go away.
