The MSM invited that label from both sides, by catering to both sides no matter if one side still deserved it. ie... there was no loud disagreement from progressives about that label as they had been lied about or ignored for years, decades, already.

(1,910 posts)Anderson Cooper has not said one word about anything but Afghanistan since the 9 pm hour started. Not one word on the infrastructure plan, not one word on Covid, not one word on the climate change causing floods, hurricanes, fires.
He just now said he would talk about masks after the break, after 30 solid minutes bashing Biden on Afghanistan.

He does shit that we're supposed to treat with kid gloves because he represents a part of society that has been persecuted. I really dont care what gender you represent, what race you are, what religion you may or may not tout. If your going to be a "reporter" then do your fucking job. If you want to report for TMZ then just go do it and quit buffaloing people that you have some kind of peer acknowledged integrity of your craft because you're on TV at 8pmEDT.

Back in October 2019, TFG released a photo and insulted Speaker Pelosi, calling her nervous Nancy.. She immediately used it as her Twitter cover photo!
Edit: McConnell is in this photo, although hes partially obstructed by the General sitting to TFGs right. Hes wearing a blue suit.
