... the entire campaign is neck and neck during the duration of the political season. If the MSM can make the election close they can rake in astronomical sums of money in political adverts.

Due to the inherent weakness of the ReThug Party the MSM has to ignore and down play trDUMP's weaknesses and manufacture concocted faults and weaknesses attributed to President Biden. That way the buffoon trDUMP is not the isolated flawed human on the political stage. Biden has manufactured flaws and issues just like trDUMP. Nobody is perfect. This helps normalize trDUMP's outrageousness, inappropriate behavior, and over the edge wacked out thought processes.

They cloud and trash the political landscape so they can ultimately maximize their profits derived from political ads in the media. The MSM promotes Fascism when they promote trDUMP. The media hates American Democracy - they welcome a Fascistic Kleptocracy, a Fascistic Theocracy, and a Fascistic brand of Hyper Capitalism run by obscenely rich Oligarchic Authoritarians who rule with an iron fist.

Besides trDUMP is a consumate showman and shyster conartist. He is rude, crude, hyper emotional, laughably stupid, incoherent, inconsiderate, immature, and a narcissistic ego maniac alpha toxic male who yearns to be dictator/despot for life.

trDUMP Is an exciting bombastic colorful person gift wrapped with a bow of Fascism - what is not to love and respect about him ?

He is the perfect specimen of a manly man tough guy - except for the occasional and timely patriotic blister, bunion, and bone spur - and don't forget his most glowing attribute - Donald being God's gift to womanhood in every way imaginable.

What's not to like and love about djt and reason to worship the ground this Messiah walks on ?
