I literally just heard a Fox commentator say that it was wrong to consider a shooting a school shooting because it happened in the school parking lot and did not target students.... the problem with bias is if you agree with the bias, you can't tell that you are bias yourself.
I do agree that the media tends to be left leaning. it is unfortunately the way it is as media companies are based mainly in metropolitan areas and if you are in metropolitan areas, you tend to be more liberal (uh probably because you have something called DIVERSITY). that said, you are quick to bash CNN and yet you don't say anything about MSNBC. You mention how so-and-so "destroys" CNN. if you go watch MSNBC and Rachel Maddow, you'd see logic "destroy" the Trump Administration.
I don't agree with everything on Fox and yes I agree that they are a right leaning network, one of the few. I do enjoy watching Tucker Carlson and Hannity though. MSNBC is almost as bad as CNN, I don't think Rachel Maddow is in a position to destroy anybody, watch the video of her on election week/night and see who's pompous ass got thoroughly destroyed.You use the words "waking up thanks to Trump" and yet we are sleepwalking through yet another school shooting, another mass shooting. The "draining of the swamp" have shown how hypocritical that message is by countless top officials being accused of abusing spending off tax paper money. any person could have told you this would be the outcome if Trump replaced politicians by top exec businessmen. Why? BECAUSE TOP EXEC SALARIES have been RIDICULOUSLY RISING at a HIGHER RATE than overall wages. You have golden parachutes and stock options and CEOs having $100 million dollar potential salaries and you give them a public office and you EXPECT them to be PRUDENT???
Domestic school shootings have very little to do with politics, most of them have to do with poor upbringing, mental illness combined with an addiction to drugs, anti-depressants what have you.
Trump is putting money back into the pockets of the middle class. Have you not seen or heard of all these company bonuses as of late? People getting more money back on their tax returns? Jobs being kept in America?I don't care that you support Trump. That's your choice. It's the blind trust you give him. You can support Trump and the Republican party and STILL be critical and bash him whenever he does something wrong. It's called making sure the people you elect does what's best for this country. I don't care if you are a Trump fan, a religious right, Alt-Right or a Bernie fan, progressive, NEITHER party knows what is best for this country for EVERY issue. You can't push a "conservative" ideology on EVERY issue and believe that it is the best solution to the problem. same thing you can' push a liberal approach on everything. but if you do not discuss the issue with ALL sides, nothing will ever be resolved. An attempt at "Health Care Reform" that only one party presents. A "Tax Cut/Tax Reform" (what reform?) that only one party presents.
Trump isn't perfect by any means but he is more transparent than Obama or especially Hillary Clinton ever were. His message and agenda has always been consistent, and that is to make America great again. He's been saying the same thing for 20 years now, just go back to his old David Letterman and even Oprah interviews. Trump isn't going to nail every policy as he comes from a business background, he has to lean on his advisors for many of his decisions. Not all will turn out great for the American people.Just because voters voted Republicans to both houses and the white house does not mean Republicans have carte blanche to do whatever they want. And if those Republicans/Trump fans would just hold their representatives to the fire to work to get things done right, we wouldn't be here throwing barbs back and forth. We have a solid economy and yet an "unnecessary" tax bill was passed and voila, we have uncertainty in the stock market. Think about it, slow and steady growth means smaller "corrections". Quick and fast growth means larger "corrections". Thankfully, the economy is solid (and thanks goes to Obama and Yellen) and you don't see a lot of overreactions to the "corrections".
Funny how Obama gets credit for the great economy yet it's Trump's fault do to the "correction"? Fyi, the market started flourishing under Trump's watch, not Obama's. Trump shouldn't have tried to take credit for this imo because the market is very unpredictable as there are so many other factors in play that affects it. He should have just stayed quiet on this as it could very well come back to bite him.And then you say stupid things like the "Justice department have been heavily influenced by Obama and Hillary" when the department is stocked with career people who were there for decades including during the Bush administration. Meuller for example as mentioned is a Republican. The guy who texted those anti-Trump messages was the guy who pushed to renew the investigation into Hillary for the emails just before the election. If you don't look at the whole picture, you can easily find enough evidence to justify your claim. The fact that the Republican Congress refused to let Obama select a Supreme Court appointee during his last year of office would indicate an "influence" of the Supreme Court by the Republican Party. Yet you don't say anything. Wonder what happens if the Dems win Congress in 2018 and there needs to be a nomination for Supreme Court during Trump's LAST year in office. You really think that Congress is going to allow Trump to select the next justice now that precedence was set?
Everybody knows that the Justice dept and the FBI were at the mercy of Obama and Hillary Clinton. Remember the private conversation Loretta Lynch had with Clinton at the tarmac? Comey was also a Clinton/Obama puppet as were the rest of the high-level cronies.
You don't get it. A few bucks for a short period pales to the huge cut the rich get. The reduction in revenue causes increase in debt and other things that may negatively affect the economy. Getting rid of the mandate for health care that money people see just disappeared as he's done nothing for health care. Transparency? How come the white house doesn't inform the country that trump spoke to Putin leaving us to hear from Tass or other.foreign news outlets? Also you complain about the tarmac but have no.issues with trump expecting sessions to protect him? Wasn't Comey appointed by Bush???? Has trump ever acknowledged how good the economy was before he started? Unemployment rate?
















i'm sure Barack and Hillary will be arrested any time now though.
