Fake news led by the New York Time and Associated Press has begun the relentless propaganda accusing former President Donald Trump, the likely GOP nominee, of dictatorship, destroying American democracy. With Covid-19 and race riots in the rearview mirror, the anti-Trump election strategy has morphed from2020 when the media blamed Trum for the Covid-19 crisis and race riots from George Floyd’s May 25, 2020 murder by former Minneapolis Police officer now federal inmate Derek Chauvin. Liberal newspapers and broadcast outlets deal with a slew of recent polls showing that Trump beats 81-year-old President Joe Biden in head-to-head matchups in battleground states. Democrats and their corrupt friends in the liberal press must come up with a new strategy in 2024 since they won’t be able to blame Trump for the Covid-19 crisis and race riots.
When it came to 2020, the liberal press demonized throughout the summer as causing the Covid-19 crisis by not intervening effectively to contain the global pandemic. Washington Post journalist Bob Woodward turned-Democrat-hack claimed in his book, “Rage” that Trump minimized the Covid crisis until it was too late. Woodward talked about interviewing Trump Jan. 28, 2020 when there was not one death in the country from Covid. Woodward claimed that Trump did nothing to stop the pandemic from spreading to the U.S., despite the fact Trump banned flights to-and-from China. By that time it was already too late, having nothing to do with Trump, yet Woodward worked his fake journalism to blame Trump for the developing Covid crisis. Trump thought Woodward was a sympathetic journalist who would help portray Trump as doing the right thing with Covid.
Then the double-whammy happened with George Floyd’s unfortunate death-by-cop with Chauvin kneeling on Floyd’s death in Minneapolis until he died. Race riots, looding and arson erupted around the country, with parts of municipalities burned to the ground or taken over by leftist anarchists, like in Portland and Seattle. Trump talked at the time of bypassing the 1878 Posse Comitatus Act to use the U.S. militiary to quell the racial violence spreading like wildfire around the United States. Liberal mayors and governors pushed back telling Trump to stay out of local law enforcement, even though the violence didn’t stop for months during the summer of 2020. So getting back to the fake reporting in liberal print and broadcast outlets, Trump’s approach to maintaining law-and-order has been reported as proof that, if elected, he would destroy American democracy.
Then fast forward to the Jan. 6, 2021 Capitol riots that Democrat like the blame on Trump, now facing Department of Justice charge of planning and orchestrating what Democrats call the “insurrection.” Spending a year-and-half in a partisan witch hunt to blame Trump, the House Jan. 6 Select Committee concluded, without proof, that Trump planned-and-orchestrated the Jan. 6 insurrection. Trump had already been impeached by 83-year-old former House Speaker Nancy Pelosi for “incitement of insurrection but acquitted in the U.S. Senate. Pelosi followed up with the Jan. 6 Select Committee trying, with her anti-Trump largely Democrat committee, to tie Trump to the insurrection. Democrats turned over their conclusions to Special Counsel Jack Smith, who, in turn, charged Trump with 27 felonies connected with the Jan. 6 Capitol insurrection.
Watching the liberal press and broadcast outlets now writing fake stories that Trump would destroy American democracy by using the Pentagon to deal with potential domestic disruptions is an egregious violation of credentialed news organizations. So, in 2020, the Democrat and media strategy was to defeat Trump by accusing him of spreading the Covid-19 pandemic and causing race riots from George Floyd’s death. House Democrats accused Trump of not sending in National Guard or other military troops to end the Jan. 6 mayhem. Now the media is accusing Trump of using the Pentagon to manage domestic violence. Liberal broadcast and print outlets would accuse Trump of anything to prevent him from winning the GOP nomination or 2024 election. Unless the federal courts don’t get involved in stopping the liberal press, U.S. democracy is indeed dead.
How can American citizens tolerate egregious bias in the media, spreading propaganda and disinformation to advance the Democrat agenda of reelecting Biden? Writing stories about Trump ending democracy is exactly the opposite with the fake news ending democracy as we know it. What are credentialed news organizations doing pushing a Democrat agenda? Looking back on 2020, liberal print and broadcast outlets brainwashed the public to vote against Trump. Three years later, the economy is a mess and the U.S. is at war with the Russian Federation. U.S. prosperity and peace under Trump’s four years in office is long gone. Trump’s prosperity and peace has been replaced by Biden’s economic uncertainty and perpetual war. If the liberal press gets its way, Biden will get four more years to start a war with China, maybe to start WW III and nuclear war.
