6. WHAT is going on here?

1. The Corrupt Media CREATES Donald Trump from nothing, by GIVING him billions of dollars in free political advertising, with 24/7 coverage of his every sneeze, from the day he announced.

2. The Corrupt Media meanwhile black-holes Bernie Sanders entirely for six months, and mentions him only as a footnote as he wins numerous primaries and caucuses some with blowout numbers, and furthermore has been demolishing Trump in national matchups polls since January, and is still doing so!

3. Sanders, virtually by word of mouth, gathers a tribe of millions who demand the end to corruption and a fair deal for all, with Sanders--rather like Seabiscuit, scorned and ridiculed by the racing establishment--coming from behind, with no advantages whatsoever and no corporate money, and giving Clinton an amazing challenge, and almost getting there and...and...

4. But the Corrupt Media has given Clinton the Democratic nomination by default, because millions of low information voters voted for her before they even knew there was another candidate, and also help out with fawning coverage of Clinton, of which Chris Matthews is a prime perp.

5. NOW they mention the Clinton Foundation? NOW? NOW the New York Slimes and the Washington Psst do "investigative reporting" on Clinton corruption? NOW they start talking about Clinton as Secretary of State giving uranium deals to Russia and big arms deals to Arab 'princes' who hate women, with the Clintons taking their kickbacks in their Clinton Foundation slush fund?

6. And here we have Chris Matthews trawl in some rather useless "talking heads" including the Emily's List smiler, and some guy from the MSNBClinton network, and a Republican, merely to shut them up by talking over them in an incoherent presentation, but nevertheless suggesting some slimy business at the Clinton Foundation.

So, they create Trump out of nothing, they treat Sanders like the Tooth Fairy and other childish myths, and they give the Democratic nomination to Clinton, and now they're trashing Clinton?

They want a screwy Nazi booger as president?

Truly I am puzzled. I had figured out a rational plan--not a nice one, but a rational one from certain points of view--as follows: The Corrupt Media creates the Trump monster as an easy foil for their Goldman Sachs candidate. She looks all grand and "liberal" defending women, Mexicans, Muslims, gays, and pissing on Nazi boogerism. She wins. She gets crowned and proceeds to pay back all her uber rich donors and speech buyers as they have specified. A sad tale but one that makes sense.

Right. But what is THIS? NY Slimes and Wash. Psst, and even Chris M., her very own puppy, talking Clinton corruption! What does it MEAN?

Do we live in a rational oligarchy? Or are the oligarchs all nuts? Or are they all at odds with each other? Or have they pulled together in their common desire to trash democracy by making it....absolutely inside a 3-Stooges movie bonkers? (They're doing pretty well with that.)

SOMEBODY TELL ME WHAT THIS MEANS?! HELP! HELP!
