The media is not a passive observer. In fact it is the single most powerful player in the game of politics. Hence the media did not “miss” anything. Instead it allowed itself to be steered by people who abrogated their morale role in a democracy as the fourth estate - to provide clear, unvarnished truth and guidance to their viewers to help them make the decisions on which the republic stands. Instead they both pandered to the ill-informed desires of the undereducated masses, pushed/created a profitable (for themselves)horse race through rampant false-equivalencies, and now have earned a place in ignominy on par with their previous peers in 1930’s Germany. Pathetic. Spineless. And truly craven.

Starting from a perception that he is one of the least popular presidents might be your problem. He’s actually extremely popular.

So was Michael Jackson, Bill Cosby, Martha Stewart, Nixon, and for that matter, Hitler. Popularity is not necessarily a sign of anything good.

Then talk facts: Energy independence, secure borders, great employment, spending power healthy, no new wars…shall I slow down for you?

This is an exceptional episode. A master class in complicating the dominant narratives. Thank you!

Donald Trump‘s popularity has so much to do with the brilliant people who have decided to endorse him. And the loser/warmongers that are now endorsing Kamala.

Name a single brilliant person who has endorsed him. I’ll wait.

Just because you don’t like him does not mean that he is not brilliant.

Enjoyable to listen to.

You lost me at the intro. Kamala doesn’t lie or just make shit up or just doesn’t know the facts?

There is a big difference between "missing" something and studiously ignoring half of the country . Please check out my article about the election today: https://open.substack.com/pub/williehayes/p/kamalas-handlers-are-coming-for-everyone?r=dyanm&utm_campaign=post&utm_medium=web&showWelcomeOnShare=true

There are a ton of posts out there about how the media screwed this up, how the media missed that, how the media can’t find their way out of a room with five doors, etc., etc. People who are of average and above intelligence know that they can’t get All of their information and knowledge from “the media.“

Having said that, I know the media sucks. They’ve done a terrible job at covering Trump and the whole election campaign for that matter. But we have to start blaming the ignorant citizens in this country who seemingly have to be told how to think and who to vote for based on who pissed in what punch bowl last night.

The Democratic Party is today like Wile E. Coyote suspended in midair just after he has run off the cliff and afraid to look down and accept his fate. Few in America are buying what they are selling anymore with their ridiculous open borders policies, their openly racist (against whites, Asians and men) identity politics, their acceptance of black criminal behavior, their coddling of the addicted and mentally unstable homeless, their crazy beliefs related to transgender issues such as allowing men into women’s sports, locker rooms and prisons, the mutilation of children in pursuit of the impossible and their increasing distrust of free speech. Oh look, they are already falling.

On the other hand there’s the Republican Party. The mere fact of their following of the probably mentality unstable Trump is one clue of their deranged condition. I would add that their failure to acknowledge the reality of climate change, their antipathy towards vaccines, their belief that a single cell ( . ) is the equivalent of a 👶, and their constant use of their right to free speech to spread obvious lies is clearly disqualifying to me.

I can’t vote for either party.

Paralysis by analysis. You live in a two-party state. Perhaps you should think some more on that fact...and act accordingly.

"No one knows?" or do the MSM & pollsters lie about everything to make Prez races appear close to maintain a fiction that voting & elections really matter when both candidates are actually selected.

So, it really doesn't ever matter who is elected Prez of the US & for proof just look back at Trump's 1st term. Daddy Vaxx?? Go back in history & all the Prez, more or less, toed the PTB's Prez boundary lines. Which Zionist-candidate Prez, along w/their supporters & Rah Rah Israel Boosters will win this time? :/

Useful reminder: We're living in a live-action role-play (fictional scenario in real time) & most nearly everything happening politically on the world's "big stage" is by the PTB's planned & devious design.

Brilliant political analysis in the article below (excepting unforeseen political coups/regime changes). "How To... Rig Your Rigged Elections" - October 31, 2024 by Kit Knightly - Edwin substack post - Oct 31 - https://edwin797.substack.com/p/how-torig-your-rigged-elections -

Summary > “Five tips for the aspiring autocrat…

Are you an aspiring oligarch, dictator or autocrat? Do you want to wield power whilst maintaining a façade of popular support and democratic mandate? Do you want to make your proles believe they have a choice?

Well then, welcome to the first of our "How to..." series. A selection of articles dedicated to teaching aspiring authoritarians how to hide tyranny behind a reassuring mask of freedom.

Here we'll go into the finer points of how it's possible to have "elections" that mean almost nothing.”

For your consideration:... Rod Serling introduction, Season 4 & 5 "The Twilight Zone": "You unlock this door with the key of imagination. Beyond it is another dimension - a dimension of sound, a dimension of sight, a dimension of mind. You're moving into a land of both shadow and substance, of things and ideas. You've just crossed over into the Twilight Zone."

We're living in a Twilight Zone of electioneering behind the tyranny of a "reassuring mask of freedom".
