Trump Derangement Syndrome and the Fourth Estate

[Veer_G]

Journalists, it seems, are caught up like mid-summer bugs in the Blame Trump for Everything Zapper® (BTfEZ).

Two of them, at last count, have wrecked themselves upon the shores of false narrative and wild speculation.

Reuters Breakingviews Editor Rob Cox admitted that he “responded emotionally and inappropriately” after being called out for jumping to conclusions prior to the facts emerging. Police said the suspected gunman, eventually identified as Jarrod W. Ramos, targeted the newspaper after a lengthy feud regarding a 2012 defamation lawsuit.

“This is what happens when @realDonaldTrump calls journalists the enemy of the people. Blood is on your hands, Mr. President. Save your thoughts and prayers for your empty soul,” Cox wrote in the deleted tweet, according to TheWrap.

A reporter at the Springfield newspaper The Republican abruptly resigned Friday after putting out a sarcastic tweet suggesting the alleged gunman who fatally shot five people inside the office of an Annapolis, Maryland, newspaper left a Donald Trump hat at the crime scene.

The reporter, Conor Berry, apologized for the since-deleted tweet in a follow-up message posted to his Twitter feed on Friday.

“Folks, My 21-year career as a ‘journalist,’ a fancy term that makes my skin crawl, frankly, came to a screeching halt yesterday with one stupid, regrettable tweet,” Berry wrote. “Can’t take it back; wish I could. My sincere apologies to all good, hardworking reporters and to POTUS supporters.”

The enemy, and at this point I have no other term for them that fits so adequately, in dribs and drabs are beginning to self-destruct, pitching themselves upon the ramparts in the run-up to the 2018 elections.

It's obvious that they intend to attempt to circumvent the Constitution in order to restore governance of a distinctly redder shade across this land.

How hard it will become in the near future to practice composed restraint in the face of this and not give in to the fulminating reaction that the Left seems hell bent on provoking.

For the time being, pray for peace, but otherwise, prepare.

It seems from recent history, "Peaceful" Muslims and "Misunderstood" progressive types have been the ones using deadly violence to attack the SJW Communist propaganda mouthpieces that pass for "news" organizations.

The good news is that thanks to the Communist mouthpieces being such overtly biased and crazed zealots for their SJW cause, anyone with a brain & the willingness to do some research is starting to tune them out. They keep raising the volume on their hatemongering both with their official propaganda channels & on social media, but it's becoming more of an echo chamber where them and their hardcore are busy preaching to the choir in ever more dramatic terms while anybody decent is getting the hell out of their propaganda circle as fast as they can.

What Trump's election showed was that despite all the "Power" that the communists have in the "news" media and "entertainment" sector, they still fell flat on their faces. The "news" media and "entertainment" industry and pretty much every "celebrity" and "Social Media" outlet, along with several government agencies including the FBI, DOJ, IRS etc. and a huge amount of overly wealthy funders tried their best and hardest to push their chosen vile puppet to the presidency and were assured of victory in their own minds. Only to fall flat on their faces to a newcomer who didn't even have the full backing of his own party (like McStain trying his best to sabotage his party's own candidate), spending less than 1/3rd of what they did, because he had the message the rest of the country wanted.... a Giant F____K You to the Communist elite.

I think it's only going to get into a wider gulf between what the "media" and "social media" says and what the actual average decent American in large numbers thinks.

Im convinced the first thing George Stephanopoulos did when he became a "journalist" was to ensure the Dem party would not be associated with the color красная.

Hillary has been President for almost 19 months now. The media told me there was no way she would lose.

Funny how that worked out, huh?

And then there's damned Jim Acosta.

Maybe Jim will get a weeks suspension like Maggie Hassans expletive spewing "gifted" intern.

 

[Spblademaker]

The press has been running at 103% and it’s finally catching up to them.

 

[oneshot86]

let them go, let that rope out even further, they are doing themselves in...

 

[pmclaine]

Its a shame.

A free and fair press is vital to a free republic.

Sure bias is one thing that is why we need multiple sources but.....

coordinated collusion calls for the removal of press credentials and banishment from the profession.

Take that a touch further, and point out that these 'journalists' (and I use that term LOOSELY) are employed by a company as well as are 'under' a supervisor/manager of some sort.

Large fines for public embarrassment of the company to be levied against those who disrupt public/formal events, AS WELL AS those who report wrong/false information.

Don't just hold the reporters feet to the fire, but hold the venue's feet to the fire too. Report the truth, it's not that hard. Do so in a 'decent' manner,,, it's not that hard either. Almost all of us were taught that in kindergarten.

Trump called the "Fakenews" the enemy of the people. Not the press. So Acosta is just admitting he is fake news by reporting fake news. Someone is gonna kneecap that boy. I hope he has eyes in back of his head. What's that they say about playing with fire.

Personally I hope it don't happen. It will just give him something else to blame on Trump.

Journalism is a dead art these days. There is a HUGE difference between a journalist and a reporter.

I haven't seen a journalist in a long time. Nowadays, they are nothing but reporters and mouthpieces with a fan base.

Yep but they should kick out the national media from the WH and only invite local affiliates and family owned press as well as website founders and owners like frank, Frank has more viewers on this site than CNBC CNN MSNBC have combined. ON top of that we are not unhinged communists help bent on violence like the press is.

let them go, let that rope out even further, they are doing themselves in...

 

[ArmyJerry]

Another thing, teh First is not juts about a free press, it gives just as much right to me to sit in that briefing as it does any media or propagandist under the peacable assemble and free speech text, and press is for written words not for propagandists on en electronic box. I have more of a right than a paid employee of any business to be in that briefing.

Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion, or prohibiting the free exercise thereof; or abridging the freedom of speech, or of the press; or the right of the people peaceably to assemble, and to petition the Government for a redress of grievances.[1]

It's only dead if you assess it as journalism. But it's not journalism, it's fiction, and fantastical fiction at that. Something along the lines of HP Lovecraft.

i understand, but...
the democrats are doing so much damage to themselves right now, we shouldnt stop them

 

[ArmyJerry]

agreed

 

[ArmyJerry]

at some point we need to have the destroy the fed government conversation, the one that puts the government back into its Constitutional bottle. If that does not happen there will be a civil war, and you cant have that conversation wit unhinged and dangerous communists interrupting by yelling or worse every minute.

 

[Snipe260]

i understand, but...

They are not damaging themselves. That's only in our eyes! In the communists eyes , they are dead on regardless. The commies are still gonna vote for the commies!

 

[oneshot86]

yes, but...

the masses of the democrats are, really, good people. they will only stomach so much before they themselves take back over
let them go, let them go all out, the leaders of the democrat party are bringing their house down, let them

 

[pmclaine]

All the older democrats around here think they are voting for JFK.

They couldnt be further from reality.

They are also more conservative than who the party is now messaging.

but they only know pulling the D handle when they vote and know no other way.

My elderly neighbors say dumb shit like "Romney will take away everything from the poor" or "Hillary is sooo smart" or "Everyone uses email these days".

The new Dem party takes the vote of those that cant program a VCR (all these years later) for granted and is messaging to those that expect the government to give them free BluRays as their God given right.

[WATERWALKER]

I copied this little gem from the DML (Dennis Michael Lynch) site.

A new grassroots movement is urging Democrats who are fed up with the ugly direction the party has taken in recent years — especially since President Trump was elected — to “walk away.” The #WalkAway campaign is “dedicated to sharing the stories of people who can no longer accept the current ideology of liberalism and what the Democratic Party has become,” the group’s Facebook page states.

Some left long ago. Many of us have recently been “red-pilled.” Some here have wanted to leave for some time, but have feared the consequences they might suffer from friends or family if they walk away.
This group is here to encourage and support those on the left to walk away from the divisive tenets by allowing people to share their stories, or watch the video testimonies and read the posts of others who have walked away.

​

The article goes on to state the following:

Brandon Straka aka “The Unsilent Minority” kicked off the campaign with a video on May 26. The video has 1,156,248 views on Facebook and over 61,000 views on YouTube. The #WalkAway Facebook page has over 20,000 likes and over 6,000 members.

“It is my sincere hope that you will join me in this campaign and that we may start a movement in this country — which not only encourages others to walk away from the divisive left, but also takes back the narrative from the liberal media about what it means to be a conservative in America,” Straka says in the video. “For years now, I have watched as the left has devolved into intolerant, inflexible, illogical, hateful, misguided, ill-informed, un-American, hypocritical, menacing, callous, ignorant, narrow-minded, and at times blatantly fascistic behavior and rhetoric.”

Straka, a gay man from Nebraska, says that he is one of the liberals who melted down in November of 2016 after Trump was elected.

I beg to differ . The sheeple have been shamed into believing that they cannot speak up or get out of party line . The left is now actively calling out and targeting anyone who calls the police . Barbecue Betty was outed for caliing the police when non residents took over a community pool resulting in video of police tackling teenagers who were fighting the police . I believe it was in Florida . When they got no sympathy for police brutality they decided to go after the individual who called the police . It is becoming a nationwide trend . Don't speak out . Don't speak up . There will be consequences . I told a friend about Glass Seagal . It was the act that allowed the trading houses to become banks and receive half of the economic development funds given to banks for the purpose of small business development . They use it to run lines of credit for the rich when they speculate . If they go bust no problem they don't pay it back . We are financing the biggest poker game inthe history of the world . His answer was " you're out of your mind . They would never allow that ." Two years later he came out of retirement to lobby banking and wallstreet reforms .
I am registered Dem and so is he and the lion share of people seem to digest whatever comes down the pike either out of stupidity or fear .

 

[PPB]

I cant wait for Part II

 

[Maggot]

Its human nature.

The only real change will come when human nature changes.

Read: The conservatives are just as ignorant and corrupt as the liberals, just in the opposite direction.

-Given all the power the conservatives/facists would take it all, keep most for themselves. who are big business/money, and youll be a slave for the company store.

-Given all the power the liberals/commies would take it all, a few keeping most for themselves, who will run the business/money, and youll be a slave to the state.

Personally, I dont like either of those options. Just leave me the fuck alone.

But they wont...neither side...because they dont want just what they can create, they want yours as well. They want to be 'leaders' which means to control others.

Im not a leader. Im not a follower. Just leave me the fuck alone.

But they wont.

Its human nature

Maggot out.

I really hope that you’re wrong. I don’t have much faith in the left, but I hope that we can convert at least some to the right. I have an uncle that did Union construction his whole life, always voted as a Democrat, etc. This past election cycle he calls me & says “I’m now a Republican. The Democrats gave gone too far left.” I’m hoping there’s more of this. The economy / jobs market is rocking & that has to count for something.

 

[ArmyJerry]

you misunderstand a communist, they are individuals, each individual communist is a full on despot in waiting, they will subjugate you, kill you,, take whats yours, including your family, property, and freedom, they will take all. They are the embodiment of hate, much like zombies, exactly like zombies, they will devour all, they need to be treated like zombies, for they are zombies.

I hope Im wrong also.

Only thing that concerns me is a whole generation of kids has been put into debt attaining unmarketable skills and they all think they should be CEO's of huge corporations.

They are still living at Moms house and are expecting a return on time and investment stroking themselves.

Its their divine right that the nation should provide them free shit and absolve their debt.

The people from that generation that actually did anything are already working, having their jobs phased out by robots or illegals, or on their 5th deployment playing casualty roulette.

They are a limited, less vocal amount of the population

Reagan was weak.

 

[pmclaine]

Reagan was weak.

But he could put in words, if not always action, the spirit of what is America.

We may not always get 100 percent action but Ill take 100 percent conviction.

Now if he just hadn't started this anti 2a shit.......

 

[ArmyJerry]

yep sold us out and Cali too, anti 2 a open borders, amnesty cost the country California and is will be judged equally as responsible as the Great Society for causing the next civil war.

 

[Alphatreedog]

Wait, what? Say it ain’t so! You a registered dem? No!!!!

Very conservative old school Dem . More conservative than today's conservative Republicans . When Dems come campaigning I school them hard . And as to be expected what they feel and have been told is the truth . They would self emolate
if they ever cracked a book or read the Constitution .

 

[W54/XM-388]

One thing to remember about Reagan's presidency is he had to mostly work with an anti freedom, anti American, Communist loving congress so it wasn't all his fault. While he did sign off on the MG ban, at the same time a lot of worse anti gun laws got changed for the better at the same time.

I've noticed even when the Republicans have a lock on everything (like now) they don't seem interested in giving back any of our Gun rights and the Democrats are all of course in lock step with wanting to take the remaining ones away.

Hard to keep blaming Reagan when the stupid Republicans can't pass a simple 1 line bill to repeal a small amendment paragraph in a 30 year bill.
At least while Reagan signed off on banning new MGs, he repealed a boat load of anti gun rules.

 

[ArmyJerry]

Nope Reagan sold us down the river just like McConnell is right now. You are the serf, that is the way they view you (us), tehy will not give up easily. Be ready for the worst, be knowledgeable who is trying to enslave you. Buy more ammo, be ready to defend yourself, its a likely scenario.

 

[W54/XM-388]

Buy more ammo,

I might suggest for a lot of folks it should be "Buy better ammo", I did the whole saving tons of basic spec stuff for times it was hard to get.
Then more recently I have been realizing that a smaller quantity of ammo that has significant overmatch capabilities is worth having instead of a larger quantity of run of the mill stuff.

 

[W54/XM-388]

McConnell is pretty much vying with McStain in my opinion for worst Republican not yet deceased.

That ammo stash is divided into two lots. "Take care of the problem BEFORE it becomes an issue" as well as "repel the marauding hordes." For one, you want the quality, whereas for the other, (applied in a proper manner) you want the quantity.

You're off to a good start!

 

[ArmyJerry]

quality 300 WM , 175 GR 308 and 77 gr 223 also a shit ton of penetrators as a lot of the hordes are currently issued body armor. I really really want more 308 AP projos. Fucking Reagan utlawed them that fuck.

Yup. There is a reason why dems and the atf are in lockstep to try to ban .223 Penetrator Ammo. Stock up and pile deep.
