Here's what I think the MSM will eventually do re: Donald Trump...


Obviously, financially, right now, they are fully vested in a close election. Their sponsors and viewers practically DEMAND a close election. This will keep the money flowing, and will keep the eyes peeled towards their TVs (****; it's working on ME! I wait with baited breath on the latest headlines and polls, looking for game changer, the next projection, the next narrative).

That being said, I feel a MAJOR pivot coming down the line.

Even the MSM (save for Fox; **** Fox) know how dangerous this mother ****er is to our very democracy. They want to keep it "competitive" for as long as they possibly can for maximum profit. So they will artificially inflate the Donald's "acting Presidential", or his support in ANY WAY that they can for as long as they feel they safely can do so.

And then they will attempt to pivot to Hillary (again, save for Fox), knowing that we don't all want mass deportation, undermining of our military, and, I don't know... throw in WWIII for good measure, with NUKES for fun, because, hell... we HAVE them... why don't we USE them?!

The problem is, they're playing with fire...

A) We have to hope that it isn't too late, and that they don't decide to hold the match until it burns their fingers off.

B) I can't wait to see the heavy hitters on the trail for Hillary (President Obama, VP Biden, hopefully Michelle! All of our HIGH popularity Democrats that can make a difference).

C) The Debates. She will wipe the FLOOR with this fascist piece of shit; Gish Gallop be damned.

D) GET. OUT. THE. VOTE. Period. End of story.

LAND.SLIDE. Only way to thwart this fascist trend.

Hillary might not even make it to the first debate if the news keeps coming out against her and her emails...

2. I know one voice is meaningless

but lately I've been tweeting at regular intervals

@MSNBC @CNN Every time you give air time to Trump I CHANGE THE CHANNEL

Maybe if a lot of people did that it might make a dent?

I can well remember how effective "NOT ONE DAME DIME DAY" was... keep up the great work, retard member oldtimer.

Shillary has done everything she could to avoid debating anyone or having to deal with media questions as soft ball as they will be.
If Trump continues to show a Presidential stature she will look like a small,bitter shrew...oh wait a minute,that is what she is.

Yeah because the first 8 years of Clinton as president were a dream for the military.  Reduced funding,  sent us more places than the five previous presidents combined (Kosovo,Somalia, and Bosnia anyone?), and had very little respect if not outright contempt for the military.

I still recall when our first sergeant was telling us we were deploying to Kuwait for Desert Fox (the Clinton attempt to contain Saddam)  He said: "Men, Hillary called, we're going going to war."

I didn't like the first 8 years of her as president,  I DAMN sure don't want another 8.

For some one who's such a clown that Hillary will mop the floor with him, Trump sure has DU-folk soiling their panties!

Dear oldtime dfl_er:  Nobody is reading your tweets.  Nobody.

If she does wipe the floor it will be to hide the fact she just crapped herself and some of it slid down her leg and landed there.

[DumbAss Tanker]

The floor will get wiped at the debates, alright, but by the janitorial staff and mostly between her podium and the bathroom.

[Karin]

Wipe?  You mean like with a cloth?

Typical dummies... late to the ballgame as usual.  It is all over the internet that the MSM has, by their own words, dropped all pretense of objectivity and is in the bag for hillary.

If you ask me they are putting all their eggs in one hillary basket.  If Trump does win the MSM will officially be relegated to the dustbin.

While I'm not going to predict the MSM's catastrophic total collapse, they have been all-in anti-Trump for the better part of a year. And Trump recognized that - probably even anticipated it - and has been playing them mercilessly.

The thing here that I thought was shocking is a NYT editor said they need to drop all pretense of objectivity.

I do agree that Trump has played them like a cheap violin.  What a way to get your message out without spending money.

Trump had the balls to call them out on it.  He's not taking their shit, and a lot of the electorate likes what he's doing.  Now, if the Republicans in the House and Senate would only wake up and realize that this is a new day for Republican politics, their poll numbers would skyrocket.
