Stop giving a twice-impeached, failure of a former President media coverage. MSM can't contain

[Evolve Dammit]

themselves, can they? Too much revenue. It is disgusting that this sociopath, pathological liar, tax cheat and mob boss has not been run into exile. MSM and mis/dis-information (thanks Facebook and the dark web) are largely why we're here. And of course Vlad's buddies.

1. The double standard here is maddeningly obvious

Trump was given a pass on everything because he's "new at this". When he so much as did the presidential equivalent of successfully pooping in the big boy toilet or tying his own shoelaces - i.e. the bare minimum of competency - the media fawned over him and showered him with praise. " He's so presidential!", they'd say.

As for Biden the bar has been raised to an impossibly high level, and his bringing back Bs instead of A+s has resulted in stern lectures and mournful lamentations that his presidency is already an abysmal failure about eight months in.

4. indeed. And many in MSM helped create him with constant coverage, and the first 2 years of slack.

"He is going to "pivot." Anyone could see who he was and would be, by looking at his past, his "associates" and his tax returns. Oh, wait, we still haven't seen those. And you never will either.

2. Did you see something specific?

It's a good idea in an OP to at least name the channel or newspaper you're complaining about.

3. It's everywhere. They announce his tour dates, they cover his quotes, 9-11 boxing events, etc..

5. All my Trump info comes from DU, which aggregates stories through user participation.

So... there you go.

I read far more about him here than I do anywhere else.
