Just was watching MSNBC

Just like always, MSM pushing the horse race narrative and showing all the positives for trump in a poll that Biden leads in.

This Flynn thing and Obamagate are just the beginning

Trump is going to do whatever it takes to win re-election and use every instrument of power he has. And will be backed up my the GOP Senate and DOJ. Every crackpot conspiracy theory that originates from a right wing site or Russian bots will be investigated as if it has merit. The “liberal” media will be complicit as they will cover the stories as legitimate or present “both sides.” His goal is to depress Democratic turnout, muddy up Biden’s name so both their unfavorables are high, and to convince the simpleton voter that all politicians are corrupt and there is no difference between Dems and Rep, while energizing his rabid base.

Trump is one of those keyboard warriors

You know the type that hides behind a computer or phone and hurls all types of insults at people, but when he is face to face with someone who doesn’t take his crap, he gets afraid and retreats, like he did yesterday

The press is terrible

You know the “liberal” media that trumps claims are so tough on him.....no follow up questions when needed, the next person just asks their prepared question instead of pivoting to a follow up based on the previous reporter....I saw several occasions when his answer required a follow up by another reporter,

1. His Obama gate answer
2. The admirals answer on Fauci and others in quarantine because of contact with people who were positive (then why isn’t Trump and Pence in quarantine?)

Black Conservatives

To me, it seems like being a Black conservative has become a lucrative business opportunity for some....Diamond and Silk, Jason Whitlock, Candace Owens. Jesse lee Peterson, etc...it’s a way to make money to be against the grain and show up on FoxNews or other conservative outlets....it’s funny that these same black conservatives say Black people talk about race too much, but they are always trotted out to talk about race.....And their takes on the Auhmad Aubrey shooting is disgusting....

No arrests after black man shot dead while jogging

Sickening

The case was briefly in the hands of DA George Barnhill, based in Waycross, but he recused himself because his son works for prosecutors in Brunswick.

But in a memo from Barnhill to police, the DA said he believes Gregory and Travis McMichael should not be indicted. He said the father and son had "probable cause" to believe the victim might be a burglar and were within their rights to arm themselves and chase him down.

Difference between Republicans and Democrats

Republicans held their nose to vote for trump because they saw the endgame (SCOTUS replacements).....I see “liberals” and “democrats” on twitter today still mad and saying that they won’t vote for Biden even with the RBG situation.

Why isn't the false allegation against Biden this weekend

A news story? And even the two articles I read on it made it seem like it still had legitimacy....the media should be covering the fact that someone tried to make up an allegation against him that was immediately found to be untrue

I miss Al Franken

Listening to his show now on Sirius XM...it’s sucks that he is no longer in the Senate and didn’t get a fair shot....meanwhile Trump is POTUS and Kavanaugh is on the SCOTUS....it’s a shame

Question about open carry laws

How can anyone tell if they are seeing a bad guy who wants to go on a shooting spree or some idiot who wants to show off his second amendment rights?
