This is how Trump gets away with shit "but what about"

[Watchfoxheadexplodes]

Both cnn and msnbc saying "but Democrats have contested elections" pointing to Barbera boxer in 2005 over bush winning ohio.

NOT THE SAME GOD DAMN THING!!

[pansypoo53219]

1. no shit. Fl 2000 was a fucking nightmare of bad electioning. OMG that ballot. 2004 ohio lines.

teevee gnewz are idiots.

[BumRushDaShow]

3. "2004 ohio lines"

The OH state elections IT guy, ready to testify, dying in a small plane crash!

[secondwind]

2. Yes, but they went on to say there was NO COMPARISON.

I think they called it “a ripple” or “a blip”.

[twodogsbarking]

4. But what about at band camp?

Good grief.

[mdbl]

5. all right wing media uses the "what about" in every story

that's all they have to defend all of the repuglican lunacy a "what about" statement usually citing something 20 or 30 years ago that isn't even remotely related to the subject.

14. when ever my friends play this "what about-ism" I mention that's all well and good, and we can

talk about that later but getting back to the original point..... Always works..
They want to change the narrative. I bring it back to my point that we are discussing... YMMV

[mdbl]

16. if that works, but I usually tell them that someone else doing something wrong

doesn't make it right.

[mitch96]

19. +1!

[Ferrets are Cool]

6. May as well not let it get your dander up...

MSM will NOT change. They will always treat repugs and Democrats differently...and not in a good way.

[OhNo-Really]

11. Agreed. Right leaning & and Poutrage for liberals

Not fair or balanced too often

[Ilsa]

7. MSNBC explained the huge difference between

actions and motivations from 2001, 2005 and now.

[OhNo-Really]

8. Stopped watching both

CNN has 🤢 Rick Santorum & mostly GOP talking heads

MSNBC rarely highlights Democratic accomplishments & guests

Amanpour is great at noon. I record
Becky Anderson offers world news in the AM

I’m weary of so much Republicants getting air time

[OhNo-Really]

10. Amy Goodwin on YouTube reports progressive world news 🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟

[OhNo-Really]

21. I record Democracy Now everyday. A firehose of info

I ❤️ Amy

[JohnnyRingo]

9. There's obviously no democratic version of Trump.

His actions are unprecedented through history.
As far as I know.

[mdbl]

17. or you could say his criminality is unprecedented for a president

that fits better.

[dlk]

12. Bothsiderism is toxic and has now become dangerous

False equivalencies have become the mainstream media’s go to. They have failed in their most basic duty.

[uponit7771]

18. +1

[malaise]

13. Mica pushed that line but others made it clear that

Kerry conceded and the two situations annot be compared

[Botany]

15. I had to turn it off ... OH 2004 was a Karl Rove crime wave ... Joe Scar is a shit never forget that

I saw "it" with my own eyes, I heard "it" with my own ears, and I lived "it."

BTW "They" killed one of the architects of OH 2004 in Dec. of 2008, Michael Connell.

******

This is how despite what should be fatal blows the GOP keeps hanging on.

[Yavin4]

20. "whataboutism journalism" is their cover from being called biased towards Liberals.

They take it to absurd extremes at times.

[Demsrule86]

22. And that was pointed out.
