Probably within the context he criticizes them. But on the subject of war, he is right!

Read the thread, it is good:

When Trump dropped tomahawks on Syria, the msm suddenly stopped criticizing Trump that week. That simple.

Trump is just pointing out the constant stream of B.S. that comes from the corporate, mainstream media. But they're free skew keep posting their tabloid hit-pieces if they want.

Trump's stupidity is giving the media ammunition like never before and he's mad that they use it.

the media is carrying out Obama and putin's strategy to divide and weaken the country. A weakened country is ripe for picking. Iran, Russia, China and others would have their way wit the US not necessarily waging existential war, but picking away at distant targets, knowing the Europeans are toothless dogs and would never mount a deterrent unless the wolf was directly at their door. Even then the country about to be eaten would know not to expect help from their neighbors.


the media continues to herald false stories about trumps health and mental state, as the ears of our enemies go up and look our way to find some advantage over us in the time of 'faltering leadership'


Aside, the media is happy to disclose leaked info which could be deadly to our agents and troops. they give daily briefings to our enemies with regard to timetables, troop strength and distribution and constantly beg the administration to reveal strategic details the enemy would find useful.


We all know the free press is critical to our existence as a republic. We all know there is no free press, it have morphed into a propaganda machine. The democrats and media think the people don't see the all out, unrelenting assault on the trump administration. they think trump has convinced the American people the news media has a nefarious agenda. No, the people can see for themselves what is happening, No need to wait for trump to point it out.


the people who were told, 'we have to pass it to find out what is in it', and were at ease with that statement are now concerned about trump's comments. Comments twisted and intentionally misinterpreted to fit their political narrative. In the days of the free press, journalists would have given a balanced account and shown that they were able to interpret words within context.


The media and dems make no attempt to keep Trump's words in perspective. As if they are unfamiliar with the language and capable of only very strict interpretation of groups of words., taken in isolation, rather than attempting to understand what is actually being conveyed.


Dems and media demonstrate an elitist attitude that bespeaks what they think of the speech patterns and language usage of everyday people. They look upon people as a herd of dumbazes. Why else would they think they could tell people we have to pass it to find out what is in it and not expect a backlash. If there were a free press when those words were spoken, nancy's spokesperson would have told us she is resting comfortably in the hospital and would be spending more time with her family and not run for re-election.


A free press is critical to our existence and their loss have been the greatest tragedy to befall America.

But then you have to admit the corollary to that:

Americans seem to largely be bullying, mean, war-mongers. If the media hypes wars, it's because that's what the public enjoys. Bush Jr.'s approval ratings rose once he started strutting around militarily.

Nope. Trump called it correctly again.

He was proved 100% correct by this simple action.

Wow! Candace Owens Copies Racist Tweets by Sarah Jeong but Replaces “White” with “Black” …. IS IMMEDIATELY SUSPENDED!


The NY Times refuses to fire Sarah Jeong.

High ranking members of our government hold a press conference where Sarah Sanders was twiddling her thumbs and they say that the Russian interference was not only true but is still currently happening and a big problem.

6 hours later Trumps says the Russia interference is a hoax.

How do you not report that.
How do you not know that.
How do you not find something extremely wrong with that.

This is not an opinion it's a fact.


Trump calling it a hoax is fake news, not reporting it is fake news. Wake up and open your eyes and ears that Trump told you not to believe.
