These riots almost guarantee
Trump’s re-election. And it mostly involved Blacks destroying their own neighborhoods.

hbk314 • 3 years ago

You really think throwing gasoline on the fire and teargassing protestors so he could hijack a church for a photo op are popular with a lot of people?

Joseph Martin • 3 years ago

I’m pretty sure that it’s the rioters who are literally “throwing gasoline on the fire.” And yes, I think the left has done itself tremendous political damage by coddling domestic terrorists and street thugs. We’ll see in November.

hbk314 • 3 years ago

Try answering the question.

Joseph Martin • 3 years ago

Ok. Yes.

"The media lied about the Russia collusion hoax, about the Mueller probe, about impeachment, about the coronavirus—and now they’re lying about the riots."

Yep, the liberal media lies in a way that would make the old Soviet propaganda machine blush with shame. I served in naval intelligence back during the Cold War. The way the intel officers read Soviet propaganda is the same way smart people read the liberal press. They started at the back of the paper, with the most inconsequential stories, and then started at the bottom of those stories and looked for factoids mentioned to make the story make sense. It was a laborious process.

The difference between Soviet and liberal reportage? Propaganda. Propaganda is reporting the news in service of a particular ideology, which is the highest consideration, not the news itself. But unlike liberals, real propaganda only lies when the truth won't do. Soviet propaganda was more honest; it had to be. Unlike in the Soviet empire, there is no alternative to liberal reportage. In Soviet days, liberal news reporting services, like the BBC and Radio Free America broadcast the news the communists wouldn't print. What major news service anywhere in the world stands in direct opposition to the liberal media? This is why liberals don't even bother with facts and truth anymore; their stories are PC morality tales that become ever more hysterical.

This shows the difference between non-elite liberals and Americans. Non-elite liberals will believe almost anything they are told by their liberal elite betters; they are blindly obedient. We Americans believe that authority exists to be questioned, and especially liberal authority. We believe in thinking for ourselves.

If you need news, pick a source you can trust and don't read the others. Propaganda works on a subconscious level, so the more you read the more it works. This happens regardless of whether you're aware you're reading propaganda.

Take a break from the lies and insanity, for your own mental health.

John Truman • 3 years ago

MSM are in open revolt against America and the truth.

Trump violated the Posse Comitatus Act when he enacted the military to attack American citizens.

Toastrider • 3 years ago

Maybe you should reread the Insurrection Act first before you talk about posse comitatus.

Nathan Brittles • 3 years ago

Bullshit.

Now while l well know that even Al Capone knew the law better than you liberals, even this stupidity needs to be called out.

Trump is fully within his constitutional rights to put down a series of dangerous riots leading to death and massive destruction you people caused and continue to engage in.

And he can use the military to get it done.

Indeed, presidents Jefferson, Grant, Wilson, FDR, Eisenhower, Kennedy, LBJ, and GHW Bush all legally and constitutionally used the 1807 Insurrection Act to put down violence and restore order using active US military forces to get it done.

Trump is expected to announce his own use of this act to activate either the 82nd or 101st AB and/ or Marine divisions sometime tonight to Friday. As your utterly worthless party has proven itself non compliant and helpless to deal with these criminals, then the US Army or Marines will.

Enough is enough. When dumb rioters are blowing themselves up attempting to crack ATM machines with high explosives looted themselves elsewhere, along with engaging in wanton murder and mayhem,then it is literally time to call out the troops.

Yet make no mistake. Trump has the Constitution and the law at his back.

You people, as obviously demonstrated, do not...

Hilarious delusion!

El Proffesor: What law school did you graduate from, what state are you licensed to practice law in, and what is your license number? BTW—your parents violated the laws of nature by conceiving you thru anal sex.

Harrison Leventhal • 3 years ago

Incorrect. The Insurrection Act allows the military to be used to restore law and order when state and local forces are unable to.

SAS • 3 years ago

National guard is not military.

KEM2 • 3 years ago

Ignoring the inexplicable "...he enacted the military..." idiocy, your comment is completely false. Seriously read a book or something. COVID is no excuse for ignorance.

An Observer • 3 years ago

Gloomtube!

ImperatoreFormaggio • 3 years ago

There's a source you can trust?
Propaganda infects every media outlet, the best you can do is balance competing biases with those less severely afflicted.

Hominid • 3 years ago

Good advice, but most people aren't going to heed it.

Most people don't pursue "the news" anyway. They simply hear things or catch a glimpse and uncritically believe what they hear if it is from their buddies or professors or is consistent with their preferred delusions.

You should always remind yourself that half the population has a double-digit IQ and average ain't smart by any stretch. Moreover, even most intelligent people are slaves to their emotions.

Propaganda isn't about the truth at all.
You would be better off not reading lies.

Guest • 3 years ago
Matt_SE • 3 years ago

Not really; that's a conceit people tell themselves to justify their curiosity.

If you read propaganda, you will come away dirty. If you're tired of feeling dizzy, don't read it.

CB • 3 years ago

Everyone who picks Fox or The Federalist is just picking Trump apologists.

WS • 3 years ago

What this partisan asshole is saying is, only listen to right wing propaganda.
That's why he's a partisan asshole in the first place.

polistra24 • 3 years ago

A dangerous game but a very old game. Newspapers have always cultivated wars and riots and crime, because war is their raw material. Hearst was honest about it 120 years ago, but most people still haven't figured it out.

Harryfreeloader • 3 years ago

Print media also play a major part in covering up government criminal activities: from the CIA to Wall Street to the real perpetrators of the assassinations of the 1960s.

widhalm19 • 3 years ago

YES! Excellent comment.

maynardb • 3 years ago

Impossible! Media behavior has been impeccable until 2016, only because they hate Trump (and me) so much.

Harryfreeloader • 3 years ago

I'm sorry you don't know the history of the media in this nation. But that's not my problem. It's not known as the Mockingbird Media for nothing.

Hominid • 3 years ago

Pearl-clutching sells.

TruthHurts • 3 years ago

Since Trump announced he was running for president, the media mocked him. When he won the nomination, they went into attack mode. When he won the election, they lost it entirely, but all the time they tried to maintain the illusion they were the "unbiased fourth estate". Now they aren't even trying. They've been the propaganda wing of the DNC for years now. The mask is off. What surprises me is how many people refuse to accept what they see going on with our own media.

Count Floyd • 3 years ago

The blue pill is very intoxicating.

Bill Huracan • 3 years ago

Thanks for warning us. That's why TruthHurts takes the red pill.

Count Floyd • 3 years ago

No problem. I prefer the red pill too. "For fast, effective relief"

Swoop Doggie Dog • 3 years ago

Trump is being propped up by right-wing prpopaganda, but its not working this time! He's losing to Biden by 10 points! There is no way to overcome that humongous deficit in voters! Trump has pissed off the American people, and they want him out!

Kyle • 3 years ago

Yeh, and Hillary is still ahead by 10 points too, LOL.

endpork_Spending • 3 years ago

You have no idea of what you are talking about.

Sabeoth42 • 3 years ago

Those are rookie numbers. Trump was losing to Hillary by 11 points two weeks before the election. Sounds like he is improving.

TruthHurts • 3 years ago

Trump is being held up by right wing propaganda? He's losing to Biden by 10 points? I think you should stop doing drugs. It's damaging your mind.

Cellec • 3 years ago

Fool yourself as you wish.

Bill No • 3 years ago

Trump walks over to a church and holds up a bible and the MSM goes nuts while continuing to lie about tear gas and crowd push back. They are really trolling deep to find something to blame on Trump. Of course everything is his fault anyway. What we are seeing is a preview of Democrat governance.

Count Floyd • 3 years ago

Don't need a preview. We saw it for 8 years under the Hussein regime.

Bill No • 3 years ago

But this would be under a senile old man with a former 1st Lady VP pulling his strings and listening to some loser named Barack.

Count Floyd • 3 years ago

Truly scary.

Wirius • 3 years ago

The problem is not that Trump walked to the church. The problem is they did not get the perimeter wide enough earlier in the day due to incompetence. So instead of delaying another a few hours to properly move people, they fired pepper spray and rubber bullets into the crowd so Trump could have a photo op.

That's just dumb. I don't care if you're left or right. Any president who did that would have my ire.

Count Floyd • 3 years ago

Maybe the rioters should have left the area when they were told.

An Observer • 3 years ago

Well, maybe the retards shouldn't have been violating the law President Gay Black Retard signed, that made their assembly a felony, should they?

Pope1944 • 3 years ago

When all the dust settles, a few years from now, some enterprising writer will put together a compilation of all the things Donald Trump predicted that came true. In every case he was vilified and ridiculed but he was right. I won't list them all here but it will include Russia, Russia, Russia, The phony impeachment, the prediction that Covid's death rate was being vastly over stated, the prediction that Covid will start to lessen or disappear with warmer weather. And finally his comment that with looting the shooting would start. Several dead and wounded police officers around the country are the proof.
And his greatest and most truthful statement? The media are the enemy of the people.

Hominid • 3 years ago

The folks have moved so far into Lib-leftist psychosis that Trump's normalcy and sanity seems "extreme" to them.
