    You there, Lee?

    I'm certainly looking forward to how you spin Leslie's acknowledgement of how Democratic Party officials expect the leftist mainstream media to be on their side.

    Yet you leftists expect Trump to simply roll over and play dead for the leftist media, why?

    You mean like this ? BFD !

    This is a flip-flop for Trump. Before he was elected, he dismissed the stock-market performance under Obama as “artificial” and “a bubble." Moreover, the U.S. rise in 2017 was not unique. When looking at the Standard & Poor’s 500-stock index, it’s clear U.S. stocks haven’t rallied as robustly as their foreign equivalents. Moreover, with each 1,000-level increase, the accomplishment gets increasing less impressive.

    Don also used to dismiss the unemployment numbers released when Obama was in office as fake.

    The reply from the minions to purposefully misleading the minions.......so what?

    In other words, you folks have normalized Don being dishonest to the point where it doesn't matter to you if you are being lied to.

    And you folks have normalized a leftwing, biased press to the point that it doesn't matter when you are being lied to.

    Why are you avoiding talking about the rest of the story with Leslie Stahl? The part you conveniently left out of your OP?

    Or do you disagree with her assertions that Democratic Party politicians expect favoritism from what can only be described as their media pets?

    If Trump's intent is to slander the media enough that only positive stories about him will be true, that is trying to consolidate power, the calling card of an authoritarian.

    Would you agree Fox News (Trump's pet network) is selling BS?

    Would I agree Fox News is selling BS? No.

    Do I believe it has a Republican bias? Yes. No question.

    Do you believe WaPo, NYT, ABC, NBC, CBS, CNN, MSNBC, etc., is selling BS?

    The issue is not attack so that only positive news regarding the President is broadcast. The issue is to have factual news broadcast about the President. For the most part, the left's liberal media partners don't follow that rule. It's a never ending spew of out of context misrepresentations, revelations from "unnamed sources", and in some cases, total fabrication.

    What people need to grasp is that all of these outlets are simply businesses selling product. They don't have to be honest, and their motivations don't have to be honorable. The bigger the audience, the more they can charge for advertising. That's it. Nothing more.

    If MSNBC, or WaPo can manipulate a story so that large numbers of people will view it, they will do so. Click Bait and Dog Whistles are the order of the day. Period.

    "The media (lefty propaganda win you call the Press) discredits itself.
    Everyone knows it. You know it."

    What I know is it serves Don's purpose for you to believe that tripe. If you lie as frequently as Don does, how do you get your followers to ignore your lies? You disparage those who report on the lies.

    You aren't winning anything Atwater. Siding with the lying liberal media in thread after thread has shown your own biases against a sitting president being attacked to prevent him from accomplishing his goals that helps everyone in the country.

    In other words, dems are history in Nov, 2018, and you won't know it until election day AGAIN because the liberal media isn't honest with you.

    This topic was already laughed at in another thread.

    The article quotes four words, then just fills in the rest with the narrative that is being pushed.

    It's open fraud and a great example of Fake News.

    But it's A-Ok to spy on the guy { as President and before }
    and then run around accusing Him of Lying.
    That is What Obama's legacy consist of.
    The Guy { Obama } never uttered the God's Honest truth once
    while POTUS.
    I'm waiting for the time Obama told The Whole Truth and Nothing
    But the Truth.You know ... Like in Court before taking the witness
    stand.We KNOW Obama never showed up at a Press Conference
    On Time.Not even Once.

    I was gonna say ... That's not exactly what Trump said when interviewed.
    Yer right.This Stahl b!tch embellished.Which also explains why
    another hate-filled Radical { Joe Madison } made a big deal
    on his Morning Radio show about.Because it was gonna be used
    to twist into a huge Negative.Now we see what they're gonna do.
    They { Lefties,Democrats and Hate mongers } are truly on
    a mission to prove who and what they are.Their masks are off.
    They are everything those like Sean Hannity and Rush Limbaugh
    warned of.

    Do you think it's a coincidence that Drumpf let the beans spill to Stahl and what he said is EXACTLY what is happening. He bashes the media, and the minions don't believe what the media writes about him.
    Drumpf lies pathologically. That's been proven. In order to have credibility with his cult following he must do one of two things. 1. Stop lying. 2. Keep lying while claiming the media is being unfair to him. Clearly he has chosen door # 2.

    In other words, the Democratic Party's strategy of colluding with the leftist mainstream media has worked on you.

    Gosh, Lee, you are doing your best to avoid commenting on Lesley Stahl's observations about how Democratic Party politicians expect favoritism from the leftist mainstream media.

    What has you so frightened that you're even clipping my comments in your quotes?

    Why are you so worried about someone pointing out Lesley's observations?

    This is post #5 where you have avoided this. Heck, you even left her observations out of your OP.

    Why the avoidance? Too close to home?

    Do you know what isn't amusing? Your blind devotion to a corrupt, incompetent, self-serving narcissist. It's frightening.

    More than anything else what gives what Stahl said credibility is Don's long track record, way before he was prez, of attacking the media when they report unflattering things about him.

    He........is..........a..........liar.

    17 times Donald Drumpf said one thing and then denied it

    http://www.politifact.com/truth-o-m...ngs-donald-trump-said-and-then-denied-saying/

    When the press calls him out for lying..........he attacks the press. And the minions..........they fall for it.
