the corporate media conglomerates continuous promotion 24/7 of Trump whether he had anything of substance to state or not.

While they blacked out coverage of Bernie for most all of last year in an attempt to protect Hillary's larger national name recognition for as long as they could.

It became quite apparent to me, they were elevating Trump in the Republican race under the belief that 1. his faux populism and phony proclamations against campaign/political corruption would pull voters from the real deal; that being Bernie on the Democratic side and 2. when Hillary was nominated it would be easy for her to define Trump as looney tunes.

Hillary's dismal approval ratings on trust or integrity would be less of a liability against an unstable Trump.

This was corporate media conglomerate dumbing down of the American People at its finest or worst however you want to view it and I'm not surprised in the least to see Schultz's DNC fingerprints on it.

But in this case, you realize you're dealing with a WordPress document with portions omitted. randome Jun 2016 #19

I haven't expressed an opinion regarding the OP Fumesucker Jun 2016 #22

I actually agree with you that these docs should be taken with a grain of salt NWCorona Jun 2016 #34

Probably because they can't stop laughing. randome Jun 2016 #39

Much doubt as to the authenticity of said e-mails: Surya Gayatri Jun 2016 #5

Guccifer 2.0 just released a new batch of hacked documents with more donir to lists MaeScott Jun 2016 #7

Donor lists are public information, you know. This topic is an enormous bucket of FAIL. randome Jun 2016 #9

I haven't seen anywhere in the public that said that Morgan Freeman gave Hillary a million dollars. NWCorona Jun 2016 #36

Well, some have pointed out that this donor list appears to be of Obama's donors, not Clinton's. randome Jun 2016 #44

Appears and is are two different things tho NWCorona Jun 2016 #53

I believe he gave that to Priorities USA Blue Meany Jun 2016 #48

Yeah there's no way he would have been able to give that much to Hillary directly NWCorona Jun 2016 #52
