The "right wing media" has no clout. The mainstream media is all Leftist and it is capable of creating whatever myth they want to create about the right and making it stick as if it's reality.
Oh I think there's plenty of extant evidence against Obama but the Left keeps it under wraps. Because they can, because they have the power.

Sad but true, scarily true, that our vote is almost cancelled out by a politically motivated perfectly evil media, who ARE more powerful than our elected officials. Who would ever have thought that Marxist propaganda could take over the "free press" but it's happened. (There are some "Republicans" with them though, that must be noted).

Spin spin spin. Trump hasn't been able to do anything Presidents normally do as a matter of course because he's sabotaged at every turn. And of course the Left has to pretend he'd be a dictator if it weren't for the watchdog press. Thus is the lie maintained. Propaganda is a powerful weapon, I never realized how powerful until this year.

Don't lie about me. I don't want a dictator, I would just expect a President to be allowed to be President but the lying tyrannical Left does want a dictator, themselves, so they are doing everything they can to undermine anything Trump does. It's amazing that he gets some things done anyway. The healthcare situation would have been figured out already if it weren't for all the obstructionism going on.

You're still lying. The press hasn't printed any truth about Trump. since he took office.

Every line you wrote is a Leftist propaganda line. Reality IS something else altogether.

more of the same
You'd think I'd be happy that we got Trump who represents my view of a secure and prosperous America, but the Left isn't going to let the rest of us enjoy our victory. They actually have a Resistance movement to thwart our will, the will of the other half of the voting population that disagree with them. What has happened to civility, to our vaunted freedoms? How do you allow yourselves to malign this other half of the country as you do? Where do you get your arrogant certainty that you are right and we just trash you can call names and step on? Where are the voices decrying a comedian's holding up the severed head of OUR chosen President? Since there are none I would assume yhou think we should all have our heads severed. Why doesn't it bother you to impose your views on so many of us that hate your views? We won the election and all the Left has done is try to overturn it. Not a shred of civility left.
The only person to raise the issue of the attempted murder of a Republican congressman today raised it on the Humor thread. Why is nobody else concerned about it? Do you agree with all the crazy Twitter talk about how the Republicans deserve it? The guy hated Trump. So do all the media and the supposed comedians, who I don't find funny at all, just full of hatred and the arrogant desire to impose their will on those of us who disagree.
The Left even dominates and spews its venom even when our side wins. Do they want to start a civil war? What is going to be the end of all this violent craziness?
This whole thread has already shown the partisan craziness on the Left. Stuff is made up against Trump just because you have a different political view. Amazing.

Re: more of the same
Sorry, that doesn't wash. The attack on Trump is absolutely unprecedented, it's a concerted effort by political and media POWERS to bring him down. This isn't just the partisan views of some, as was the case with Obama, who got a free pass and then some by the press. Nobody would have dangled his bloodied severed head on camera, there wouldn't be a cacophony of Tweets calling for his assassination, all the comedians were on his side, the headlines that every day knock themselves out to find something, anything to pin on Trump, did the reverse with Obama. Every day we read of some kind of bogus investigation drummed up out of thin air, EVERY DAY! Or somebody's opinion that he should be impeached. BASED ON NOTHING! Sorry, my objections to Obama are like a gnat's to a behemoth --an evil, conniving, scheming lying totalitarian behemoth that hasn't the slightest respect for American traditions of fairness. And besides, conservatives aren't barbarians, but obviously in this election cycle the Left is. Get real.

The Evils of Wealth
One headline recently was about how they are looking for some way to find Trump's financial position to be a cause to bring him down. We can't have a billionaire for a President, being a billionaire in itself is criminal in today's Marxist mindset so we have to find something to pin on him.
So that got me looking up the wealth of other Presidents, which I know in recent years hasn't been negligible. Found a Wikipedia article on that very subject.
Very interesting. Was there an effort to pin financial wrongdoing on JFK? Not that I recall, despite some of the questionable dealings of his father. Of course Trump's 3.5 billion does put Kennedy's 1 billion (by today's standards) in the shade, but wouldn't you think even 1 billion would raise some Leftist eyebrows? Not in the case of Kennedy.
And then our country's founder George Washington comes in third with $580 million. Was there a big brouhaha about his wealth in those days? Shouldn't there have been if wealth is such a big problem it's got the evil powers breathing down Trump's neck?
Jefferson comes in at a paltry $234 million. And on down the list. Lincoln was among the poor Presidents, and there are quite a few of those too.
Check it out, it's fun .

Re: more of the same
PLEASE just put the content of those links into a sentence or two. I did click and try to read but I really am not up to it.
However, I will comment that a few violent Trump supporters, which is what I suppose this is about, is not the same thing as all the calls for assassinating Trump that are everywhere these days, all the media attacks on him, all the skewed headlines, all the endless attempts to find something to pin on him, all the exaggerations and lies, all the hatred coming from all directions in an amazing variety of forms. From the rank and file Left who had some kind of emotional schizophrenic meltdown when they lost the election to the nasty Hollywood people to the Congress who are doing their best to impede everything Trump does while saying he's the one obstructing justice. The shooter of the Republican congressman was not just a loner, he was acting on the pervasive hate speech against Trump and his supporters.
Do you think I'm getting my impressions from Trump? Hardly. I'm hit in the face with them every time I go online.
What worries me and should others as well is that the extreme nature of the Left's activity could start a civil war. I really think it could. Even conservatives won't sit still forever.
ABE: Oh and I'm sure you'll find that Trump supporters do not support any kind of violence and would denounce it, whereas there is a deafening silence from the Left about their evilspeaking Madonna who wanted to blow up the white house, and all the others who speak violently against Trump, and their shooter today too-- who was just upset about politics, jeepers imagine that, it's okay to shoot people if you're upset about politics. I really don't think anything like that sick mental set exists on the conservative side.
Or if it does I'll be very surprised and I'll KNOW that civil war is brewing.

Re: Who will be the first A-hole
No Nukes besides of course accusing me as usual is blessedly otherwise treating me as if I don't exist -- too bad he can't refrain from acknowledging my existence in an indirect slam.
Anyway your points are well taken and my comments are more to NN, whom I will not address directly either.
I'm glad to hear that there is SOME objection on the Left to the shooter but what I was talking about was the screaming silence at EvC about Leftist violence recently. Lots of comments and accusations against Trump and utter silence when it's the Leftists.
And I used "hate speech" which is a term I usually avoid, because it points up the hypocrisy of the Left who use it all the time against the Right without any warrant whatever.

Re: more of the same
Again, the attacks on Obama pale in comparison to the attacks on Trump which aren't just coming from individual partisans but from the people who are supposed to represent all of us or be neutral such as the media. There is certainly enough hate on both sides of the issues these days in this violently polarized country, but I don't think we've ever before seen the concerted organized attacks on a President by the media and other powers that be that we are seeing today.
Every day I am assaulted by headlines and commentary by comedians and people at EvC who don't seem to care what they say against ME because I supported Trump as they attack all supporters of Trump. Every single day. And the Left in general DOES justify this stuff or ignore it, showing basic agreement with it.
Again, EvC is silent when the Left is violent. Haven't seen a thing against Madonna's criminal comments or the violent "protests" we've seen since the election, or the comedian who held up Trump's head or this recent shooter until I posted on it, or any of that.

Re: Who will be the first A-hole
So you justify not protesting an attempted murder because you hate Trump just like the would be murderer did. You have the usual idiotic fantasy about Trump, the sort of idiotic infantile accusation that very well could cause civil war. The Left is perniciously and dangerously stupid these days.

Re: Hate speech
I could not care less what the official definition of hate speech is since the Left has lost its right to determine such things by attacking the ordinary citizens who voted for Trump and not protesting when they are attacked. That IS hate speech. The racist hatred of whites by the Left IS hate speech. The jokes against Trump supporters ARE hate speech.
