This "sane washing" of Trump is getting too obvious

[Pototan]

I watched the entire commencement speech of Donald Trump at West Point. It was made up of two parts. the teleprompter and the ad lib.

On the teleprompter, I could hear the voice of Steve Miller mouthing the fascist and regressive lines. That was bad enough, but the ad lib part proved to anyone really listening that Trump is insane.

At the commencement of our future military leaders, Trump was incoherent. He talked about some real estate guy who was successful, sold his business, acquired a "trophy wife" and then went bankrupt. It made no sense. He spoke about a small golfer who was good. WTF. He was all over the map.

Then, when I watched the recap on the TV, every American channel made Trump sound sane. They only replayed the few complete sentences that had any thread of sanity. Even then, Trump said that we are a miliary that "spreads Democracy at the point of a gun", when he obviously meant to say the opposite.

Why is the media covering for this guy? He hates them. 98% of Americans did not watch the whole speech, they only consumed the recap. The MSM makes this insane man look sane and report his actions like they are a well thought out strategy. They are not. This 50% tariff on Europe is just a whim. Trump is like a mad king and very few people in the MSM are calling him out. There will be a reckoning, and we will all suffer. And not just those who support this moron and those of us who oppose him. But beyond that, the whole world. There is no place to hide.

1. K&R

Every news outlet who is sanewashing this idiot is complicit in destroying this country

[proud patriot]

2. We must Demand the Media Do Their Constitutional DUTY !

our protests must include the media . and we have to Abbie Hoffman it with
creative political theater .

3. THANK YOU

I don't get why the media is bending over for Trump either, WTF is going on......it is RIDICULOUS. ADD TO THAT their current obsession with JOE BIDEN and it's just plain

[Klarkashton]

7. His message is clear to the media. Mess with.me and ill

Tie you up in endless lawsuits to drain your ass.
It works.

[Skittles]

8. but some who are fighting back are winning

people and organizations need to stop bending over and start banding together to FIGHT - it makes me SICK to see how easily some are willing to give up DEMOCRACY

[Klarkashton]

13. The wins are extremely costly and painful. Most of them are for

Happened in the past. Before his " message".

16. What I don't understand is

Why doesn't the media see that in the end game, Krasnov doesn't need them. Much like Russia and RT Krasnov will soon demand one news source, DJTTV.

Much like I don't understand the republicans in Congress. Again Krasnov end game is he doesn't need them to pass anything. If all he has to do is sign an EO and people march to those orders. Congress doesn't have to worry about being reelected, after Krasnov stops future elections.

I know this sounds far fetched and very gloom and doom. But I can't stop thinking about the absolute worst. And I think the rest of the world sees it too.

See Project 2025.

4. "Getting"... . The RW media tried to

cover for bush for so long until they couldn't anymore.

I keep thinking of that. And, I haven't watched since November 2002. I read about them on DU.

They Cover for Mump because it's good for their business.. they have not shits to give for America who once was Beautiful.

5. We are in the age of Caligulump.

It’s only a matter of time before he nominates his golf cart as the next Secretary of Transportation. If we’re lucky, our media will report the selection as “controversial,” with “widespread, but not universal Republican support.”

[Klarkashton]

6. If you want a sane wash take look st the summary

Provided by the DoD. JFC

9. My God, I've been anguishing about this all day

I watched the CBS evening news and the anchorwoman introduced the Trump segment like she was reporting on a pleasant human interest story. There doesn’t seem to be any urgency about what we’re dealing with here. It reminds me of that Star Trek episode with these zombie like creatures repeating to Kirk, Spock and Dr. McCoy, “You will be absorbed.”

10. The white supremacist-wealth wing of the white establishment

gets all the priority, all the passes, and all the credit by the rest of the white establishment.

That is why the media sane washes Yam Tits.

But we all know this, don't we?

[SunSeeker]

11. There's a reason the White House won't release transcripts of anything Trump says.

It's a total shitshow. But then this is the same guy who said "they're eating the cats, they're eating the dogs" at his debate with Kamala, and people still voted for him.

[malaise]

21. Well there is video of the entire insult to the cadets

We can transcribe it and spread it

[SunSeeker]

23. The problem is, without an official transcript, there's debate over whether he actually said what's in the transcript.

Sure, people can watch the video, but most don't -- or won't.

[dchill]

12. You're right - the media glistens and glazes Trump at every turn.

But please! Steve Miller does "Fly Like An Eagle" and "Abracadabra" - the regressive, racist and fascist stuff is the work of hateball Stephen Miller! Completely different guy! 😉

[BigmanPigman]

14. The media hides and shows two sides...

They covered for Wilson after his stroke, FDR with his physical disabilities from polio and Kennedy's pain ridden body. They also covered for Raygun's dementia.

However, those situations were not as serious as what we are currently experiencing. This BS is on a much higher level since our actual democracy is being murdered by the GOP.

Greed and power are symptoms of mental health problems. MAGA supporters are sociopathic and sadistic.

Over 1,200 NO KINGS PROTESTS planned for June 14th!

[Dark n Stormy Knight]

15. So important that all who can do it get out & protest.

Also call, email, and/or text senators & congressional reps, and local reps from school board to state government.

And someone on Facebook recently suggested writing to all businesses we interact with, local or narional, to ask them not to support bad policies & politicians.

[SocialDemocrat61]

17. Because the corporate media

and many of those who work in it are not only right wing themselves but also highly corrupt.

And don’t let any of their sycophantic apologists who are members here tell you any different.

[Brainfodder]

18. He is profit for the top Rep donors, no one else matters.

[OldBaldy1701E]

19. "There will be a reckoning, and we will all suffer."

Well, we had the chance to nip this in the bud in 2021, but we decided to act like both sides are operating from the same playbook. That they are all still just people with a 'differing opinion.'

Anything that happens is on us. Like it or not.

[malaise]

20. I didn't watch much news yesterday but did any of them mention

that he said he was given a mandate to do whatever he wanted

[HAB911]

22. any news outlet that dares report accurately

will by squashed by corporate

[PlanetBev]

24. The main concern of these "journalists"

Is to pick up their paychecks at the end of the week.

Must be nice. I used to have to work for mine.
