1. You know what is even FUNNIER

50 million of us think he is doing a GREAT JOB

[malaise]

2. Hehehehehe

Nah that's just BIGLY SAD

[certainot]

29. just turn on limbaugh and hear all the excuses, rationalizations, and blame shifting

and multiply that by 1000 radio stations, and reinforced by a few hundred wannabes

that's why he got into the white house and why he's still there and why he will be there sucking off the country for a lot longer because progressive groups and the dem party continue to take our donations and do nothing about rw radio

[Eliot Rosewater]

31. Take our donations? What does that mean?

[certainot]

32. how many volunteers and protestors and activists is one liar with a giant radio station worth?

1200 radio stations x 15hrs/day at $1000/hour are worth about $5BIL/year.

because there is NO organized effort by the main progressive orgs and the democratic party to do anything about rw radio they ensure a lot of wasted resources all the way around.

most of his support is based on a talk radio-based alternate reality that exists largely because the main tool for creating it gets ignored. gets a free speech free ride.

we don't even poll for the closest connection to trump outside of 'white'.

all the think tanks have to do is wait until progress looks eminent - like when a group of activists move legislation forward - and all they have to do is design a pr campaign to pump out of the local radio stations and suddenly the same made-to-order teabag dittohead trumpists get outraged and coordinated to stop it, usually based on lies and distortions.

whether stopping or passing legislation they have a major advantage merely because the left/liberals/dems ignore rw radio.

iraq war protestors should have included the radio stations that were selling the war.

OWS protestors should have included the radio stations that were egging on local govts and cops to clean them out.

we even let 88 major universities support 257 of those limbaugh stations. the major prog orgs could go on the offensive and stop that.

now we have trump because of that ignorance.

3. Whoda thunk?

What could possibly go wrong?

Oh yeah - he's going to "Make America Great Again."

[RKP5637]

4. America, post tRump. Get ready for a bigly dystopian society!

[zentrum]

6. Wonderful picture.

Where did you get it? Who painted it?

[RKP5637]

7. It came from here! It's remarkable!

You'll have to look around. I have to go out right now.

8. Thank you! I will explore.

[Plucketeer]

14. Infrarupture! nt

[Nitram]

19. On the contrary, post-Trump we will have a chance to start making progress again.

[RKP5637]

21. That is one good point, he will likely drag the nation down so far ALL people will wake up! n/t

[Kleveland]

26. This is assuming that his regime will leave us with a choice.

I like the positive thinking, but this administration seems to be attempting to create a dictatorship.

[certainot]

30. not so much if we keep ignoring rw radio

[IronLionZion]

23. When Trump's campaign described America as a dystopian hellscape

they were actually sharing their vision for what they were offering to do to us.

5. MSM Media has failed us

......more than ever before. I thought Judith Miller was the worst but this inept collusion with Trump has allowed a coup.

I have no words. But how dare they not drive home these stories throughout 2016.

[Nitram]

20. I get so tired of people blaming the media for everything.

The media has broken all the stories of Trump's sordid history and crooked actions since his election.

[GetRidOfThem]

24. I agree

I was using Google News like a madman before the election, and the stuff on Agent Orange that was reported was so negative and eve outrageous that I thought he would never be elected. Every gaffe and wild proclamation received plenty of critical press.

I don't know about TV coverage, because I don't watch that much. But the written press, in my opinion, is falsely accused. I don't blame the mainstream written media for getting him elected.

[Nitram]

25. I'm the same. I never watch TV news. I rely on the Washington Post and NPR for most of my news.

People who blame the MSM for everything just don't know how to distinguish good journalism from bad.

[zentrum]

28. Shouldn't have

...to do so much on the side to find out the real news. It should be on the evening news. It should be easily accessible. That's why it's called "mainstream".

Not talking about the media habits of a few people in the choir who are here on DU.

I'm talking about the fourth estate doing its damn job. If they don't question power and expose abuse of power on a continuous basis, Democracy can't survive.

The country is in serious trouble and the media gave him cover all the way up to the election.

[zentrum]

27. What about before

....the election? He wouldn't even be a candidate in 2016 if they'd had headlines about all the workers that he'd ripped off, his corruption etc.

The horse has more or less left the barn.

[George II]

9. Two thirds of his wives are immigrants from former Eastern Bloc countries.

10. Control, control, control....very Bigly issues in his life...

[Fla Dem]

[pbmus]

12. A concerned citizen..

[guss]

13. bad

Amassing how messed up can u be.. to be a great Republican..

[calimary]

15. Welcome to DU, guss!

Maybe make that "... to be a grate Republican." After all, the Orange One certainly is well on his way to "make America GRATE again." And in record time!

[guss]

33. Ty

Lots of amazing things happening.

[cwydro]

17. Who is Crystal Presley?

Just curious.

[Gothmog]

18. I am shocked, shocked I tell you

[IronLionZion]

22. Ignorance is bliss

Stupidity is celebrated
Qualified people can be brought down by emails and Benghazi

Can you imagine if any Democrat did any of the shit Trump has done?
