Can we survive - a 7 month campaign?




"The lap dog media has been an arm of the DNC for quite a while now. The sad part is most normal folks realize it. So, when the press prints some garbage, that is how it is received." 


Both Joe Biden and Donald Trump now have enough delegates to clinch the nomination. Any intrigue left? Or is this a slam dunk election season? Well, here is some items left to ponder. Biden has his running mate (lucky him), but Trump does not. Robert Kennedy is still a factor, and he has yet to pick a running mate. Rumor has it, the choice will NOT be Aaron Rogers or Jesse the Body. It will be Nicole Shanahan (a tech lawyer from California). 

I was thinking about this the other day. Since the Deep State still has Trump tied up in many court appearances, getting a running mate identified is crucial. Why? The running mate can handle some campaign duties. Hit different states. I know the Donald is the big draw, but the right kind of running mate can really help. Somebody who is very popular. Like maybe Kristi Noem.

But what about the media? What can they do during this dearth of election news stories? That is a simple answer. They will make crap up. Take things out of context. For both candidates? No, silly - only Donald Trump. Like how? Like the "bloodbath" story. "If Trump loses the election, there will be a bloodbath." Did Trump say that? Sort of. He was talking about China's auto plants in Mexico. If Trump wins, Trump will put a 100% tariff on any Chinese car coming off the line. However, if Biden wins, there will be a "bloodbath" in our auto industry. 

Expect to see more of this crap as the months drag on. As the old saying goes, the media will be ensconced in telling "lies, damn lies, and statistics." Truth will be a stranger, whereas sophism will be the norm. Trump just needs to stick to one subject - how things in this country were under a Trump Administration as compared to how they are today. Night and day.

At one time, a free press was considered to be the "Fourth Estate of Power". They existed to cover politics in a fair and unbiased manner. Those days are long gone. The lap dog media has been an arm of the DNC for quite a while now. The sad part is most normal folks realize it. So, when the press prints some garbage, that is how it is received. 

Can we survive until November 5th? I sure hope so. Can the press survive until November 5th? Maybe not. Maybe they will spin themselves into a supercilious oblivion.
