The Politics Thread

[DarthXedonias]

Seeing how things are progressing it seems the media where I live still don't want to recognize Trump as the president. They are dropping propaganda everyday on him.
I'm have been wondering if history isn't going to repeat itself once again like with JFK.

Trump seems to be the enemy to kill from their point of view, right now they are trying to kill his reputation with the media, second step is the physical attack if necessary or possible.

Trump is the first president since JFK to "associate"/talk openly with guys like Alex Jones which are term as conspiracy theorist by the media.

Meh, I'm not surprised at all. They were trashing him and taking his words out of context the entire time he was even running. You would think after losing they would ask themselves, "Where did we go wrong?" and do some self reflection. Instead all you see is them doubling down, not even questioning if they did anything wrong, and just continuing with the attacks. Unfortunately for them I do believe a lot of people, a decent portion anyway, are not listening to their crap anymore if polling and their ratings are any indication. If I remember correctly, a poll done back in October said that only 30% of people, in the US anyway, trust the Mainstream media anymore. I have seen numbers as low as 6% in other polls on this issue. They are really hurting anything left of their credibility at this point with this doubling down. For example, the New York times recently had to issue a apology to its readers for their bad and bias coverage of the election because a lot of their readers cancelled their subscription.

The thing that really annoys me though is Clinton's supporters at this point. Still rioting a week and a half after the election results. Destroying property and beating up people who didn't vote like them. So very "tolerant" of them. The funny thing though is that they are all rioting in cities that voted Clinton. All they are doing is hurting their cause and pushing other people to the other side by doing this. Also doesn't help when you have shit like this happen nowadays:



Guy just wanted the name Trump on his cup the day after the election, probably as some memento, and the guy refused to do it even though he called the corporate office for Starbucks and they said he could have any name he wanted on the cup. Guy still refuses and calls the cops on him for it. I swear this new generation is pathetic and gets triggered over everything. Sometimes I just wish they would get over themselves and grow a pair. I really hope Shannon's business takes off and AM7 becomes popular. Its very needed in my opinion. This generation really needs to grow a thicker skin and stop being triggered by every little thing.
