@realDonaldTrump
Can you imagine if these Do Nothing Democrat Savages, people like Nadler, Schiff, AOC Plus 3, and many more, had a Republican Party who would have done to Obama what the Do Nothings are doing to me. Oh well, maybe next time!

(9,090 posts)it is the only unique advantage republicans have and democrats and media don't even poll for it
here's David Cay Johnston: The future of Trumps presidency is up to Fox News ------ fox is a decoy, the cartoon cliff notes for 1500 coordinated radio stations
then on msnbc a historian repeats the question "why does the base stay with trump?" all media/dems have to do is start polling for it
harumph
(1,898 posts)But what to do about it when the stations don't even have to make $$? They are in effect
loss leaders. You can't legislate content either. Competing stations? Democrats are less likely
to even tune in to AM radio. You have a captured audience that seeks out reaffirming messages - and
they're mostly repubs. Even if you expose the lies - repubs do not care. They do not care that
their influencers are LIARS. They prefer lies to facts. Personally, I think an entire generation of
old white guy listeners will have to die out before the stations lose their influence.

(9,090 posts)artificial intelligence makes it easy and cheap to digitize talk radio - the ad industry will do the work once they become aware of how easy it is for activists to record, transcribe, and list advertisers with hardly any listening required.
it wouldn't take much activism for the ad industry to get the message it has to start asking radio ad clients if they REALLY want to support the global warming denial, racism, hate, and ignorance. advertisers will head for the hills and the monopoly will fall apart. a few protests at universities and some boycotting and some press releases alerting the ad industry to this vulnerability might do it - they want those ears and don't want another stoprush - with AI they will be looking at stoprush x100.
RW has perpetuated the myth that the monopoly is a reflection of the market demand for hate and lies ---advertisers will head for the hills and many stations will have to change programming to stay alive
and it wouldn't hurt for students and communities to start protesting anything trump at the 88+ universities that broadcast sports on 260 limbaugh stations. those schools need to be asked what they would do if the KKK bought those stations, because basically they did 20 or 30 years ago
talk radio is the only unique advantage they have and at $1000/hr 1200 stations x 15 hrs/day is worth about $5BIL/year FREE to them - and the kremlin trolls piggybacking it. they know how important it is and democratic and media leadership clearly think it's irrelevant - they need to get the message and they need to start asking questions in their investigations that raise the talk radio issue to democrats.
it should not be considered part of the free speech spectrum as long as it is a well protected and coordinated monopoly. destroying the talk radio propaganda operation will help on every level, every issue, every election. and it will encourage republicans to impeach trump if they know limbaugh and sons are under attack.

We are watching someone find the seeds of their own destruction, plant them, water them and lo and behold, they are growing.
He said we would get tired of winning. He was wrong about who would be winning and, you know, it's just not making me tired. It is rather invigorating to see some comeuppance for a change. It isn't him against a contractor, or competitor. He is up against our system and it is getting tested and now we will see if tyranny has its price here.

Think of how we would feel during a State Funeral for that asshole. And there would have to be one. People we hate would say nice things about him, and our stomachs would ache from puking.
Hopefully, he won't destroy the country... or the world... in the meantime.

Be gone Mr. trDump, may your departure be excruciating and cause great damage to what is left of your psyche and conniving feeble bent mind full of hatred and deceit.
Finally may your ego be totally crushed by your failure to hijack and derail our Democracy so you could achieve more power and ultimately realize higher personal financial gains.
May you rot in hell for the damage you brought on America with your lawless misadministration.

Skip the Depends,.. let everyone witness and comment about his anal drippings and skid marks emanating from his mouth via his twitter account.
He should have never,.. ever,... ever PARKED HIS ASS IN THE PEOPLE's White House and opened he criminal nature to such public scrutiny,.. what is wrong with him,... thinking he could get away with this charade of criminality and illegality on the world stage.

Trump never had the political capital Nixon did.
Nixon didn't have FOX News to prop him up. He didn't need it at the outset.
I do not see a big, long fight with cadet bone spurs. He'll pardon everyone he can and cut a deal for a pardon in exchange for his resignation. Because his coattails are becoming toxic for the GOP. I don't think any of this comes as a surprise to the power brokers of the GOP. I've felt for a long time they would throw him under the bus before 2020. They may even be behind the whistleblower because they couldn't stomach another four years of Trump either. The only thing wrong is the timing because I think they would have preferred Biden was in place as the Dems candidate before gassing Trump.

(22,669 posts)Referring to democrats as savages is pure projection, but it will come at a cost of more isolated random violence by his more impressionable followers.
Need more convincing? Both he and Rudy Giuliani refer to enemies of tRump as enemies of the United States, as outlined in the WB complaint. If you are against this president they view you as a traitor. Beware the Fox News whistle calls for violence against democrats.

To quote yesterday's LA Times,
At this point, [Trump] could be caught walking out of a Federal Reserve bank with two giant sacks of money in his hands and no Republican would vote to impeach him for grand larceny, said a senior Senate GOP aide, who spoke on the condition of anonymity.
Our voters want two things from their congressmen: [dumping] on the media and blindly defending the president, the aide added. Thats what being a Republican has come to.
