    I'd agree.

    With which part?

    Ted Turner created CNN. He was far from anti establishment.

    CNN is part of the problem with the media in America.

    Multiple sources. It's easy to cut out the noise when you know what's going on. The silent majority in America see what the Dems and mainstream media are doing. America will thank Trump in November for all his efforts by giving him a bigger winning margin than in 2016 :)

    How do you establish there's a silent majority?

    You are basing your whole narrative on the fact that Trump said he will bring in the military if states refuse to bring in the national guard to manage riots.
    It's painfully obvious that you haven't read my post which you managed to respond to in under a minute, as it covers an awful lot more than just that - based on input from experts on the matter given from almost a year ago, long before these protests began.
    Hitler seized power when the German economy was in the gutter after ww1 and the great depression.
    And Trump supporters have spent years telling us one of the main reasons he was elected was because the US economy was in the gutter after the financial collapse and great recession. I even covered this in the post you replied to without having read.

    Look at the crowds he is getting. He was in Maine yesterday, a democratic state and tens of thousands of supporters came out lining the roads with American flags cheering Trump. It's the same all over America. Trump is hugely popular and rightfully so. Ignore the fake MSM, all they do is distort the truth.

    That's a lie. There were hundreds of Trump supporters. And hundreds of protesters.

    Some say the takeover of Czechslovkia was the start of WWII.

    It was the invasion of Poland. It was then that Britain and France declared war. Anyway, off topic.

    Who's won many awards for her journalism, or are those pan-partisan awards just a domain for the left too?

    Her awards are all before she got TDS, and Emmy's say nothing about her as a journalist. Her ratings are dropping like crazy.

    Media awards given out seem to mean nothing anyway. Look at the NY Times and Washington Post, Pulitzers for reporting on the Russia hoax.

    MSNBC,,, Rachel Maddow bonkers nut job off the scale left.

    CNN at the moment is more than slight left just because they are totally anti Trump and feel as much of a victim as he does. They are just obsessed and he takes up nearly all their air time. Maybe when there is a different president they will drift back more center.

    Maddow is anything but bonkers. She is a shrewd women who realised she could make a lot of money exploiting middle aged boomers by feeding them Russian paranoia knowing well that vast majority of her base live in echo chambers.

    She looked at fox news and said "yeah I can do that" and credit to her she, do that grift Rachel and make that money, its the American dream. :)

    Colin Powell joins George Bush & Mitt Romney in declaring they will not be endorsing Donald Trump in the upcoming election. States he will vote for Joe Biden.

    I don't really watch her or many of those shows, what were the main parts of Russian paranoia you are claiming she was peddling?

    And now we await the zealots to explain to us that Powell is a sell out and try to sully his name.

    FFS, I am largely in agreement about the biased reporting of CNN and MSNBC, although Fox are every bit as bad in the opposite direction, but then you who has been most vocal about false reporting, claim that tens of thousands of supporters showed up to support him in Maine?

    From checking local news reports rather than the main sources, it seems that "several hundred" locals gathered to support Trump, while around 200 protestors also came.

    Don't criticise the fake news people and then do the same yourself.

    That's a lie. There were hundreds of Trump supporters. And hundreds of protesters.

    Not sure if the 10,000 number is true or not but in just this short clip alone there are least a thousand or so Trump supporters and so saying it was just a 'hundreds' certainly isn't true and again, that's just in this short clip which there is no reason to think is representative of the total number that turned out. Not bad in a State that HRC won.

Not bad in a State that HRC won.



    You have misquoted me. I didn't say there was "just a 'few hundred'. I said there were hundreds. Do you have any reportage stating that there were thousands? Or "tens of thousands"?


  • Registered Users Posts: 10,423 ✭✭✭✭Outlaw Pete


    If I did I would hardly have said:
    Not sure if the 10,000 number is true or not ..

    Just making the point that saying there were just "hundreds" there doesn't appear to be a true reflection of the turn out either.

    He did so for Hillary Clinton as did George HW Bush. This is no surprise.

    He didn't say ten thousand though he said TEN'S of thousands, it's a small town of approx 1500 population, even if there is 5000 there it's not a massive number in the grand scheme of things. A Kardashian would probably get the same numbers.

    Here's the local newspaper's opening paragraph about his visit:

    "President Trump praised workers at a plant that manufactures coronavirus testing swabs, took swipes at Gov. Janet Mills and announced efforts to help commercial fishermen during a visit Friday that attracted hundreds of supporters and protesters to his stops here and in Bangor."

    Be it a hundred or 5 hundred. It certainly isn't the tens of thousands that one world order claimed to substantiate their 'silent majority' claim

    That clip shows nowhere near 1,000 people full stop.

    Actually it means you support fascism. Democratics were the party of slave owners and nothing much has changed.

    Democrats and Republicans switched platforms sonewhere in early 20th century because in the 19th the Republicans were the northern based party of big government...

    Fascism has very clearly defined parameters. Sexism, weakening of worker rights, strengthen of corporation powers, overt nationalism, obsession with crime and punishment, obsession with military and security, cronyism, attempting to make religion a key part of government, controlling mass media. I don't see any of these issues being a factor with the protests.
    They now use the media to manufacture systematic racism to brainwash their viewers. Only if a white cop kills a black person it is sensationalised to create a narrative of police brutality. Any other death is ignored by the fake MSM. This leads those brainwashed by the MSM thinking the Dems try to help the black Americans when in reality they do the opposite. This is why the MSM is a great tool for those that control the world to manipulate whole populations to believing false narratives.

    Main stream media is run by giant corporations. They broadcast stuff for TV ratings and high advertising revenue. The Democrat party has nothing to do with how Comcast or Turner do business.

    And btw there are hundreds of black men killed which are ignored by the media. This particular case the media only got interested in because there was such a public outcry from the people of Minnesota.
